What is lipomatic liposuction?
Liposuction
is one of the most common body aesthetic operations in the world. Since the
results are very impressive, it is an operation that is increasingly favored by
both men and women. Despite healthy diet and regular exercise, certain body
parts (pelvis, waist, abdomen, etc.) where you can not get rid of the fat,
liposuction may be a good solution. A wide range of different application
techniques are available: conventional lipo, laser lipo and ultrasound lipo are
some of them. One of the newest technologies developed in this field is
"Lipomatic".
What is a lipomatic?
Lipomatic is a
state-of-the-art, FDA-approved device designed to increase the comfort of
patients and doctors in liposuction. In the body, the cannula created by the
three-dimensional vibration movement infrasonic (less than 20 Hz) waves are
generated, which produce a natural anesthesia during and after surgery. With
the vibration movement, it is possible to break down the fats and easily remove
them, without damaging the surrounding tissue (vessels and nerves). Thus, the
frequency of bruising and pain after surgery is extremely reduced. The
advantages of the ultrasonic liposuction method over the classical and
ultrasonic liposuction methods can be summarized as follows:
Faster and heal
healing, faster return to everyday activities
Reduction of bruising, swelling and pain
The fact
that the stem cells are not damaged in the fat increases the success in
refilling the absorbed fat. (Lips, breasts, facials, etc.)
Shortening of the operation time
The movement of infrasound
vibrations stimulates collagen synthesis in the subcutaneous tissue and makes
the skin tighten. This effect is a big win for post-liposuction healing.
Hanging of the skin after laser and ultrasound liposuction is not seen in
Lipomat.
Cellulitis and excessive
sweating (armpits) can be treated
The
vibrating cannula tip automatically stops when it touches a tissue other than
fatty tissue. This eliminates the risk of damage to the surrounding tissue and
internal injuries
In areas such as e.g. Lower leg and ankle where you can not achieve results
with classical methods, it delivers successful results. It is the ideal method
for thinning the ankle.
Because of all these features, the lipomatic (infrasonic
liposuction) method is more and more preferred. This procedure is performed
under general anesthesia or local anesthesia according to the size of the area
used. Because the effects of sedation-induced vibration cannulas create
additional anesthesia, the method is also referred to as liposuction, which
makes you laugh. Under general anesthesia you spend the night in the hospital.
The patient will be discharged the next day. For wide field applications, this
period varies between 7 and 10 days. The patient should wear an elastic corset
for 20 days. Although the thinning of the body is noticeable immediately after
the operation, the thinning continues for days and takes its final shape after
2-3 months. Let me remind you of one point: liposuction is not used for weight
loss. It is used to correct body contours by removing unwanted fat masses.
Therefore, the patient can not be made to accept such an obligation in advance.
As a rule, 2 to 5 liters of fat are removed. Depending on the patient's
structure, up to 10-12 liters of fat can be extracted. The results are pleasing
and satisfactory.
