As with the previous types listed above, the wetting solution is infused prior to the procedure. The laser device is then placed into the fatty layer, and the laser waves are emitted to help destroy the fat. This type of liposuction is best used when small discrete amounts of fat are to be removed directly below the surface of the skin.
There are many tools that are used for liposuction such as the PAL or power assisted liposuction as well as the “Tickle Liposuction” where the nutational motion of the cannulae creates a vibratory sensation that some refer to as a tickle. But in the end, the differences in the various types of liposuction are minimal.
Most surgeons will tell you that the results obtained with liposuction has more to do with the operating surgeon than with the specific instruments or technique used. Be sure to choose a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who has experience in liposuction, and who has consistently good results with the procedure. This would be evident in before and after patient photographs. Liposuction is an art, and the patient is the canvas. A Plastic Surgeon who has excellent perceptual awareness and is an artist can transform a patient’s body into a work of art. But foremost, the surgeon should be a fully trained and Board Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgeons, as these qualifications ensure a surgeon who has had intense surgical training not only in cosmetic procedures but in the entire field of surgical care. The surgeons artistic capability, their training and their high regard for patient safety should be the triad of musts when a patient is seeking liposuction surgery.
