Liposuction Cost

By Lucille M. Morris

Body fat can now be removed with the latest technology known as laser assisted liposuction. This method is also known as Smartlipo, laser lipolysis and laser assisted lipolysis.

In the old methods, the fat had to be disrupted from the tissue that was holding it by using force, so that it could be removed by liposuction. Even though the fat removal was actually effective this way, patients were traumatized by this method. The latest method being used for fat reduction is laser assisted liposuction.

Another method known as Smartlipo, has the same principle with the use of laser assisted liposuction, but places less of mechanical force on the tissue holding the fat. Heating is used to melt the fat and then the laser assisted liposuction removes the water from the fat.

Gritty fat deposits in the back and upper abdomen are stubborn and need more force to break up. Laser assisted liposuction diverts energy to the fats or lipids through fiber optic cables by raising the lipid temperature to over 42 degrees C and releasing the liquid which is then removed by suction.

Laser assisted liposuction has heat generated on the tips of the cables and this shrinks the tissue of the collagen which is beneficial for fat removal. Doctors are yet to come to terms with the most effective wavelength which should be used for laser assisted liposuction.

The most effective wavelength of laser in melting the fat is going to be the obvious choice for use. The most effective way seems to be the dual laser wavelength.

Affordable liposuction and cheap liposuction are methods which are under debate in laser assisted liposuction. However, with the present sophisticated method of laser assisted liposuction in use, lipolysis is a fast expanding and popular way of removing fat.

Another popular method is the dual laser wavelength as it removes a lot more water from the body and fatty tissue including skin layer. Patients recover faster in this method.
