In a new article, Dr. Tansar Mir explains the liposuction procedure

NEW YORK - June 24, 2019 - PRLog -- For a perfectly toned and sculpted body, many people are flocking to cosmetic clinics around the globe to get their excess body fat "lipo-suctioned." This new revolutionizing cosmetic procedure has garnered the attention and praises of both celebrities and the common public alike.

To explain, medical doctor and surgeon Tansar Mir, MD has published an informational article on this subject in an easy-to-understand way. The complete article will be published on the Blog of Dr. Mir at https://tansarmirmd.home.blog/

For those unaware of this procedure, liposuction, more commonly referred to as lipo, is essentially just a process that involves fat removal via plastic surgery. However, it must be noted that if you are looking to lose excess weight to address obesity-related medical conditions, liposuction will not be able to help you, as it only removes the excess body fat but does not in any way reduce cholesterol or other body fats in the bloodstream.

The liposuction procedure is either performed under general, regional, or local anesthesia. It involves the use of a cannula, which is used at a negative pressure, which allows the excess fat to be sucked out of the body. It is performed using one of the three basic techniques which are power-assisted liposuction, ultrasound –assisted lipo, and sutures.

Power-Assisted Liposuction uses a vertical, vibration like motion of the cannula in order to suck in more fat and remove it. In comparison to simple suction-assisted lipo, PAL requires a reduced amount of energy for the procedure to be performed while removing more fat from the body. Pal is mostly performed in difficult cases such as in cases with areas that have secondary scarring or when harvesting great volumes of fat are required to be transferred to other areas of the body.

Ultrasound-assisted liposuction method was mostly performed from the early 1980s to late 1990s. Mostly, the cases where UAL was applied developed serious tissue damage, usually caused by extreme exposure to ultrasound radiations. However, the latest modernized UAL devices have countered this issue by using pulse energy delivery with a specialized probe, which enables surgeons and medical practitioners to carry out safe fat removal. UAL is hugely popular among people of certain skin tones.

The last liposuctioning technique is sutures. In this process, the incisions made are minuscule, and the because the amount of fluid and fat that has to be drained out is a lot, some surgeons choose to leave the incisions open, while other physicians suture or stitch them partially, leaving enough space for the fluid to completely drain out.

Liposuction may sound like a dream come true and an easy way out, but it does have certain complications, too. Serious complications can occur after a liposuction procedure, such as deep vein thrombosis, organ perforation, bleeding, inflammation, and infection. In the worst-case scenario, death is also a possibility.

Now that you have a detailed insight on liposuction, please decide carefully before opting for such a procedure.
