subject: Laser Liposuction - A Simple Method For Shedding Extra Flab [print this page] There has been a huge increase recently in the number of people taking recourse to laser liposuction for removing their extra flab. However, there is some debate over the advantages and disadvantages of the technique. And many people interested in it want to know whether it is a better alternative than the traditional weight reduction methods such as calorie restriction. It is always advisable to consider all the options before making a final decision about any operation.
Laser liposuction is carried out by inserting a metal tube of a small diameter crowned by a laser tip, into the specific region of the body that needs treatment. The laser melts the fat, which can then be easily removed from the operative area.
The biggest advantage of this technique lies in the fact that there is no need for any large incision on the patient's body for removing fat. The process also has an additional advantage over other techniques, that it does not require the patient to be knocked out. Instead, the operation can be performed by just making a particular part of body dead to sensation.
Laser liposuction also allows for quick recovery, unlike other surgical procedures where the patient takes days to recuperate.
However, one needs to be conscious of the fact that laser liposuction is a surgical procedure and it entails some degree of risks, as any other surgical operation would normally have. The procedure may result in bleeding, infections and the risks arising from the use of anaesthetics. The surgery can also cause scars and bruises but they are not permanent and go away with the passage of time. However, these risks can be reduced to a bare minimum if you go to an expert cosmetic surgeon for the procedure.
This non-invasive method to a leaner body is highly effective and is certainly a boon for those wanting to get rid of the extra flab quickly.
