Liposuction

Liposuction is an outpatient procedure and can be safely performed using local anaesthesia

It usually starts with marking areas that will be treated as well as areas to avoid during the surgery using another colour (this is done in a standing position).

How the operation is carried out depends on the technique

In the VASER technique (vibration amplification of sound resonance) a small incision is made to insert the device that produces high-frequency ultrasound waves, which will break apart fat cells. Through the same incision, a cannula will be inserted to vacuum the fat out.

And (VASER) technique or vibration Amplification of sound Energy and resonance is one of the most modern and sophisticated techniques 

It mainly uses ultrasound waves to break apart fat cells and liquefy the fat deposits so that they can be easily removed during the procedure

it provides pain-free and minimally invasive liposuction thanks to the small size of its device (3 mm).and it also achieves a degree of skin tightening because it stimulates collagen production

we place the incision in discrete areas to minimize the noticeable scars after the surgery for example in the belly button and near the bikini line. 

Another technique might be used like the MicroAire or PAL (power-assisted liposuction) the main difference here is in the mechanism of breaking the fat tissue, this technique provides the cannula with back-and-forth movement helping it pass through hard tissues like fibrous tissue

MicroAire technique or (PAL) power-assisted liposuction 

This new technique gives you a safer experience because unlike other techniques it does not use heat so there are no worries about accidental burnings.

and the cannula movement facilitates the process which leaves you with a faster and easier procedure for both patient and surgeon, as well as less bruising, less swelling and more preciseness.

It is suitable for both small or large volume fat extraction and most important of all the tissues are not damaged which means it can be used for autologous grafting. 

J-Plasma is a relatively new technology that uses radio-frequency (RF) waveform technology that works in combination with helium gas to tighten the skin in areas where tissues have started to sag skin. It is a non-surgical procedure for skin tightening that works just as good as the invasive ones!

The device has a small cannula that is inserted under the skin (i.e., the neck or any place in the body) with small incisions. Through this cannula, a combination of helium gas and RF will go to the skin, causing skin tissues to shrink instantly, which removes wrinkles to create a toned and youthful appearance. All patients see some level of improvement from J Plasma treatment.

Whatever technique is used, the procedure usually takes less than three hours and you can get back to work after one week (but you have to avoid extreme activities)

You may not be able to see the result immediately after the procedure because of oedema. however, this will fade gradually with time. the final result is seen after 1 to 3 months.

For a few weeks after surgery, you may have Bruising, Swelling or Soreness.

 Many patients return to work just a few days after their procedures, depending on the physical requirements of their jobs and the extent of their procedures

You should plan to limit your activity during this time as well

During the first few days of recovery, you can expect moderate pain and soreness

You should commit to a healthy diet and exercise plan to maintain your results
