Pros
Laser-Assisted Liposuction

Smart Lipo

Cool Lipo

Laser Liposuction

A laser is used to melt and liquefy the fat before it is suctioned out of the body

Not recommended for large areas

This surgery is ideal for small areas where fat needs to be removed.

Laser lipo involves less scraping and jostling, which decreases the amount of trauma.

Ultrasound-Assisted Lipoplasty (UAL)

Ultrasonic Liposculpture

Vaser

 

Ultrasonic energy and heat are used to breaks up and liquefy fat making removal easier. Fat is then suctioned out using traditional liposuction techniques.

Vaser-assisted liposuction is the third-generation version of ultrasound liposuction technology that emits gentler sound waves to break up and then remove fat.

Procedure takes longer than other methods

Tightens skin

Less painful than other methods

Delivers precise results

Faster period of recovery

Ideal for areas like the upper back and male breast, where fiber makes fat dense and difficult to remove.

 

Liposculpture

Traditional Suction-Assisted Liposuction

Traditional liposuction

suction assisted liposuction

Liposculpture is the "3rd Generation" of traditional, suction assisted liposuction. Today's vacuum tube used to remove fat is more refined, therefore offering more precise results.

Ideal for removal of fat in larger areas.

Tumescent

"wet" liposuction

super-wet technique

Tumescent Liposuction

A variation of Tumescent is used in all types of liposuction procedures today.

Tumescent involves injecting a large amount of medical solution to numb the area and help shrink the capillaries to prevent blood loss. The saline fluid separates fat from muscle, making it easier for fat removal. The amount of fluid injected depends on the method of fat removal used.

 

Tumescent technique swells the tissues, which aids in fat removal.
