Liposuction Batavia IL

Liposuction Batavia IL

Exercise and diet do not always enable patients to shed extra weight in their problem areas. Fortunately, Liposuction Batavia IL is effective for removal of fat from specific areas on the body. For instance, the abdomen, buttocks, hips, chin, back, and thighs are common areas where liposuction can be performed. The concept of the procedure is basic. A healthy person who has areas of extra fat has them reduced. This is done by suctioning the fat out through small metallic tubes known as cannulas. Usually performed on an outpatient basis, the patient is administered general anesthesia in an accredited cosmetic surgical facility.

Typically, liposuction starts with the cosmetic surgeon infiltrating a solution into the fatty tissues targeted for removal. The solution mostly consists of salt water. However, it may also contain adrenaline in order to limit blood loss as well as a local anesthetic for pain reduction. Use of this tumescent fluid permits a more thorough and accurate fat removal process. Patients who receive tumescent liposuction usually experience less bruising, bleeding and discomfort than those who receive conventional Liposuction Batavia IL.

After injection of the fluid, the process of fat removal starts. In some procedures, the initial step of liposuction will entail the use of ultrasound cannulas that serves to loosen the areas of fat slated for removal. Then, this is followed by the standard liposuction procedure, where your cosmetic surgeon utilizes a vacuum to remove excess fat. After the procedure finishes, the patient is fitted with compression garments to reduce post-surgery swelling. The patient is usually discharged and sent home that same day and are free to return to work within a few days or so. Patients might remain at the facility overnight if the procedure involves removal of a significant amount of fat (more than ten pounds).

Areas That are Treatable with Liposuction Batavia IL

Men who have enlarged breasts also can benefit from a male breast reduction procedure. Ideally, ultrasonic-assisted liposuction is suited to address this condition. Some patients will also opt to undergo a breast augmentation, breast lift or a tummy tuck in conjunction with liposuction.

Recuperating from Liposuction

The recovery period can range from a couple of days to a few weeks. To that end, it depends on which areas are treated, the surgical technique that’s applied and how much fat is removed. The patient’s overall condition is also a factor. It’s okay to shower the following day. Many patients will wear a compressive garment for two to four weeks. Returning to work a few days after liposuction is permitted, Typically, it’s okay to start exercising again within one or two weeks. While many patients will see results right after they have liposuction, it generally takes a few months for most of the swelling to subside and to experience the complete results.

After receiving this or any other type of cosmetic surgery, it’s essential for patients to commit to a healthy lifestyle to sustain an appropriate weight. Furthermore, if a patient gains weight after having liposuction, the body tends to distribute the added fat differently.
