Is Liposuction a Safe Treatment?

Hello,
Liposuction is good but you may also think about gastric sleeve which is much more safer and effective. I had gastric sleeve two years now through Placidway (see their obesity packages and see if you find something there) abroad and I feel like I started a new life. It was a bit hard with the diet, but...wonderful results
 
I don't agree with surgery, unless it is required for medical reasons. Have you considered taking a look at your meals as a treatment? In my case I lost about 52lbs just eating foods that my body is able to metabolise better than others. I would love to help and keep you from the knife if its possible.
 
I bet almost every single person who resorts to liposuction has never actually changed their eating habits and has never pushed themselves on a daily basis and actually, really truly exercised. I'm not talking walking through the parking lot on the way into Walmart. Real exercise, where you lose your breath and sweat a bit.
 
While following Dr. Oz' weight reduction program, you've got to ensure you also remove particular foods from your own everyday diet. This weightloss program was likewise built to be lasting for provided that you wish to benefit from the benefits of the beneficial lifestyle. How exactly to utilize this free-weight reduction workout plan.
 
If I was to give one piece of advice that would be to never listen to Dr. Oz. While he is a very intelligent and successful surgeon, his show is built around him making money endorsing products, not giving sound medical advice. It's too bad we have people like him in authoritative positions that take advantage of people.
 
Liposuction treatment is very safe when it is performed by a qualified plastic surgeon. So this treatment should be done by a doctor who is specialist in this surgery.
 
Liposuction removes fat from your body using suction. During liposuction, small, thin, blunt-tipped tubes (cannula) are inserted through tiny cuts in the skin. Fat is suctioned out through these tubes as the doctor moves the tubes around under the skin to target specific fat deposits.

In recent years, improved techniques have made liposuction safer, easier, and less painful. These newer techniques include:

Tumescent liposuction. A local anesthetic is used to numb the area of your body where the tube will be inserted. Next, a large amount of an anesthetic solution containing lidocaine and epinephrine is injected into the fatty tissue before traditional liposuction is done. Tumescent liposuction may not require general anesthesia (which makes you sleep through the procedure).
Ultrasound-assisted liposuction. This technique uses ultrasound to liquefy the fat, which makes it easier to remove. This technique may be particularly helpful in removing fat from the neck, upper abdomen, sides, and back.
Laser-assisted liposuction. This technique uses low-energy waves to liquefy the fat, which is removed through a small cannula.
Liposuction is usually done as an outpatient procedure in a properly equipped doctor's office, ambulatory surgery center, or hospital. In general, it does not require an overnight hospital stay unless a large volume of fat is being removed. Local anesthesia is used in some cases. And you may or may not be given a sedative to help you relax. If a large area or volume of fat is being treated, general anesthesia or deep sedation with a local anesthetic may be used.

What To Expect After Treatment

After the procedure, the area of the body that was treated is firmly wrapped to help reduce swelling, bruising, and pain. Elastic bandages and tape, support hose (such as those used to treat varicose veins), a special girdle, or another type of firm-fitting garment may be used, depending on which part of the body was treated. You may have to wear the compression garment or wrap for 3 to 4 weeks. Expect a lot of bruising and swelling for at least the first 7 to 10 days.

Fluid may drain from the incision sites for several days. You may be given antibiotics to reduce the risk of infection.

Most people are able to get up and move around as soon as the treatment is finished and after the effects of the anesthesia and any sedation have worn off. You can return to your normal activities as soon as you feel comfortable, although this may take several days to a few weeks. Most people can return to work within a few days. Recovery may take longer if large areas were treated
