How liposuction works?

Description
Using liposuction, you can safely and directly remove fat from specific areas around the body. Tumescent laser-assisted liposuction is the preferred method these days, because it is safer, less painful, and more effective than traditional liposuction, and the procedure and recovery time are quicker.

During tumescent liposuction, a very precise and powerful laser is inserted into the body through a small incision using a tiny cannula (the tube that houses the laser). With a burst of energy, the laser targets and liquifies deposits of fat cells. The area is heated consistently and thoroughly for reliable results. The laser also stimulates the skin, which can firm the skin and improve its overall appearance. Once the fat has been liquified, a different cannula is inserted through the same small opening and into the layers of fat beneath the skin. The cannula is connected to a suction device, which vacuums the liquified fat out of the body. It typically takes one to three hours, and you will be awake throughout.

THE RESULTS

Tumescent liposuction is not a weight loss solution (typically, only two to six pounds are removed). Ideal candidates have a BMI under 25, are close to their target weight, and are hoping to eliminate stubborn fat that is hard to target through diet and exercise alone. The tiny incisions made during the procedure, which are typically 1-2mm, will heal quickly. You should see results within a week, and the area will continue to improve during the next six to nine months. Assuming you maintain a sensible diet and exercise, the results will be permanent.

While the incision site for liposuction is smaller than that left behind by many other procedures, early treatment is key to liposuction scar management. The removal of Adipose tissue (fat) which is the source of  cytockines and healing substrates and lipids can result in problem scarring.    

The most common scarring  problem with Lipo suction is dyschromia scarring (discoloring) Hyperpigmentation (darker) hypopigmentation  (lighter)
