Which Is Better Liposuction Or Lipodissolve?

You've probably heard about liposuction

You've probably heard about liposuction. This surgery, which is also called lipoplasty and suction lipectomy, is a surgical procedure which permanently removes fat by vacuuming it out of the body. This procedure enjoys a large amount of success and popularity in America. It seems like just about everywhere you turn, you find a story about another celebrity who has undergone this surgery. But this surgery appeals to more than just the rich and famous; many Americans of the middle class also use this surgery. All in all, somewhere between three and five hundred thousand Americans get this surgery on average every year.

This surgery has a lot of benefits. It tends to be cheaper than most other forms of cosmetic surgery, it only requires local anesthetic, it can be performed in just a few hours, it has a relatively short recovery time, and it requires no overnight stay at a hospital.

Lately, however, a new technique has been invented. This procedure, called "lipodissolve," claims to be a less-invasive, non-surgical alternative. This procedure involves the injection of medications which break down fat into the problem areas of the body. According to some, lipodissolve offers all of the benefits of lipoplasty. Like lipoplasty, it can target specific problem areas and remove troublesome fat. However, unlike lipoplasty, its proponents claim, it can perform this much more cheaply and without any of the trauma and inconvenience.

However, there is, at least for the time being, very good reason to be suspicious of the glowing reviews that some give to this treatment. Lipodissolve, unlike lipoplasty, is not FDA approved, and there is very little regulation of this procedure. The injections that are given, which are designed to break down fat, can be composed of quite a number of different enzymes, acids and extracts. While there are a number of these components that are relatively standard, the exact recipe for the injections can vary widely from doctor to doctor.

In short, you have no way of actually knowing what is being injected into you, and if that particular concoction is effective or even safe. Furthermore, many doctors fear that the liquefied fat could cause serious problems. No one really knows what happens to this liquefied fat after the injections. If it goes to the liver, this could case scarring or liver failure. If it ends up in the blood stream, it could cause problems such as heart attacks, strokes or erectile dysfunction.

Although lipodissolve may sound more convenient, for the time being, it is too unregulated and untried to know if it is safe. Consumers are advised to go with a more established surgery, such as liposuction.
