Ultrasonic TechniqueA new method, called Ultrasonic Assisted Liposuction, or UAL, is now being used in conjunction with tumescent liposuction techniques. UAL works by converting ultrasonic energy into heat, literally melting the fat cells, allowing the remains to be suctioned away. This method reduces the amount of trauma to the tissue, since less force is needed by the surgeon, leaving fibrous tissue and vascular structures intact. There is minimal blood loss, less bruising, and better retraction of tissue.
This technique is promising, but there is a danger of burning the skin. The physicians at the Aesthetic Center for Plastic Surgery recommend a combination of UAL and traditional liposuction techniques to achieve the desired results. A consultation with one of our board certified surgeons will determine the techniques best for you. And remember, it is advisable that you choose a board certified plastic surgeon who is affiliated with accredited hospitals and surgery centers, to perform your liposuction procedure.
