Modern Liposuction Denver CO

Liposuction is, at heart, a fat removal technique, but there a few different methods and approaches for liposuction. In the past, traditional liposuction methods were a major surgery and posed a number of risks. Today, we have advanced techniques such as tumescent liposuction under local anesthetic, which has led to further advances such as SmartLipo (laser-assisted liposuction) and VASER Liposuction (ultrasonic-assisted liposuction).

Tumescent Liposuction by Local Anesthetic

With the advanced liposuction practices such as tumescent liposuction, SmartLipo, and VASER liposuction, local anesthesia is used. Both Vaser and Smartlipo fall under the family tree of tumescent liposuction, meaning local anesthesia is used during the procedure.

Local anesthesia offers a number of benefits in efficiency and safety. Liposuction with local anesthesia is an “outpatient” procedure, meaning patients do no require an overnight hospital stay and are able to return home after their treatment is complete. The term “tumescent” is used to describe the way “tumescent fluid” assists in the fat removal process. The tumescent fluid is a specialized blend of medications called lidocaine and epinephrine, which are designed to cause the injected treatment area to swell and firm. The “tumescent fluid,” is only injected “locally” in the fat layers where you are being treated. The combination ensures there is little to no pain during the suction process and makes fat tissue easier to remove. With local anesthetic, patients are awake, and resting comfortably, keeping the line of communication open between doctor and the patient, delivering a better experience and improved results. Tumescent liposuction entirely avoids the risks associated with general anesthesia or intravenous sedation.

After the treatment, there is minimal downtime and patients are immediately back on their feet. Most patients are back to light activities within a few days.

SmartLipo – Laser Assisted Liposuction

SmartLipo combines a high-powered laser with a specialized micro-cannula for dramatic body sculpting results. SmartLipo’s high energy laser fibers are built into the cannulas that are inserted into the incisions. The laser energy breaks down fat cells while simultaneous triggering fresh collagen production in nearby skin. This reaction is called neocollagenesis, which contributes to skin tightening and cellulite reduction for smoother results. The safety and efficacy of SmartLipo are also a marked improvement as the laser energy reduces bleeding, swelling and bruising.

SmartLipo can achieve great results in only one treatment, which typically range from 45 minutes to an hour in length per area treated.

VASER Liposuction

With VASER liposuction, also known as liposelection, you can chisel and remove fat from the body with unmatched levels of accuracy. Vaser liposuction is a revolutionary body sculpting technique that uses ultrasonic energy to break up fat cells and target small pockets of fat for high-definition body reshaping.

Vaser liposelection is an elevated form of tumescent liposuction. The VASER system uses an ultrasound probe attached to the cannula that emits ultrasound waves for dual-action fat removal. When the ultrasound probe is activated as the cannula is worked through the fat layer and the ultrasound energy shakes fat cells loose. The fat cells are absorbed into the tumescent fluid and are easily suctioned out.

Vaser liposuction can achieve abdominal sculpting and remove stubborn fat from the buttocks, love handles, thighs, arms, hips, neck, chin, back, ankles and chest.

Treatment Areas

Liposuction Denver CO area patients who wish to get rid of fat deposits will be able to achieve their goals with liposuction. Liposuction is highly versatile, and there are few if any areas of the body that are out of reach.

Liposuction can remove fat from:

The Fat Layer

Although fat plays a vital role in our overall health, fat tissue can become problematic when it does not respond to diet or exercise. The basic anatomy of the fat layer is composed of fat cells and their blood supply. There are two categories of fat tissue, brown and white fat. Brown fat contains high concentrations of mitochondria and is considered metabolically active, “useful” fat. White fat is more common in the body and accumulates on the stomach, hips, thighs and buttocks. White fat, or “visceral fat” cushions our internal organs and provides our body with reserves of energy.

Each person’s body processes and develops fat deposits in its own way. For many people, their body favors storing excess fat around the stomach, which is known as “central obesity,” or more commonly as belly fat. Fat storage has a lot to do with hormones and the proportion of white and brown fat in each individual is affected by your hormonal balance and gender. Women and men store fat differently with women tending to store fat in the buttocks, thighs, and hips whereas men tend to store fat in the abdominal area. For women, this can change after menopause where fat begins to move towards the waist and stomach.

Ideal Candidates for Liposuction

Patients who are relatively close to their ideal body weight, in good overall health and non-smokers are good liposuction candidates. Liposuction is not an answer for obesity or weight gain, and we always encourage patients to live a healthy lifestyle and exercise.

Patients taking anti-inflammatory medication or those who smoke will be required to stop at least a few weeks before to avoid complications. Anyone who has hit a roadblock on their way to achieving their best appearance will find liposuction to be a huge benefit.

The Results

Depending on how much fat has been sculpted, the results of a liposuction treatment may take some time to become visible. Patients who have larger amounts of fat removed will have visibly dramatic results, while high-precision body sculpting results will become more obvious after recovery. Your liposuction results are long-lasting barring any future weight gain. The fatty tissue suctioned from the body is permanently removed, but it is always possible to put on weight in the future. In many cases, patients who do undergo liposuction treatment are encouraged by their results to further improve their dieting and exercise habits.
