Laser Liposuction or Laser Lipolysis

Laser assisted liposuction or laser lipolysis, is one of the fast growing and exciting liposuction developments since tumescent liposuction. Laser liposuction, otherwise known as laser lipolysis, incorporates a small surgical laser to target and melt away fat, before it is suctioned from the body. The use of surgical lasers allows for greater precision and more refined outcomes. Advances using laser technology make it possible to target and melt fat cells, while leaving muscle and nerve tissue unharmed. Laser liposuction creates new efficiencies in fat elimination and reduces pain, swelling and bruising after the laser liposuction procedure. Laser liposuction patients experience a quicker recovery. In addition, there is little chance of scarring. Laser liposuction may be more expensive than traditional or tumescent liposuction. The use of a laser technology system adds to the overall cost of the surgery. However, many people find that the improved results made it worth the extra cost.
