Laser Liposuction

Laser liposuction is a technique used to dissolve fat deposits that do not improve with diet and sports and cause a bad appearance in the body. It’s different from classical liposuction methods. In this process, which is applied with the support of a laser, firstly, the fat tissue is melted and liquefied. Fat deposits liquefied with thin, metal pipes to be used in the vacuum system are removed from the body. It then tightens the body. This process takes an average of 1 – 1.5 hours.

After the liposuction method, the person can return to his daily life. This application is applied without bleeding, and since it affects only fat cells, it does not damage other tissues, vessels, nervous systems, and internal organs. This process can be applied all over the body.

It can be applied comfortably in the abdomen, waist, back area, arms sagging, male chest area. Fat cells are damaged by laser in the chin, jowl, and face area. It does not need to be vacuumed. It is excreted from the body through the lymph. It is a procedure that is applied without causing hanging on the skin or deformity of the skin after the application. This technique is a liposuction method applied to remove local fat excess that cannot be eliminated in patients despite appropriate diet and sports.

Since this process is performed using thinner fiber cannulas compared to the classical liposuction application, there is no trace on the patient’s skin after the application.

Today, extremely successful results are obtained with the latest generation devices developed for laser-assisted liposuction.

With laser liposuction, the fat cells are destroyed by laser energy, without excessive bleeding, and the liquefaction and flow of the stored fat in them are ensured. In addition, since it affects only fat cells, it does not damage other tissues, vessels, and nerves.

The fat can be taken completely liquefied. In addition, it is not necessary to remove the fat in areas such as the face and neck after melting it with laser, it is destroyed with the help of lymphatics spontaneously, healing is achieved without skin hanging and contour disorders.

In laser liposuction, the main difference between laser liposuction Istanbul liposuction and classical liposuction is the melting of the fat accumulated in the patient’s body first with a laser beam and then creating a tightening effect on the patient’s skin. Since smaller cannulas are used in laser liposuction compared to classical liposuction, there is no scar on the patient’s body. In addition, laser liposuction has a feature that recovers the patient’s skin, apart from the fat melting process. With this advantage, a significant recovery can be achieved in the skin, for example, even in people who have given birth with loose skin.

The same application is made in laser lipolysis and laser liposuction. However, in laser lipolysis, fat is not removed, in other words, the fat in the patient’s body is not aspirated in laser lipolysis. In this application, the fats are added to the circulatory system in the body and are thrown out of the body over time. This may require a long period of time for this to happen. Laser lipolysis procedure is used in areas where very little fat is stored in the patient; While it can be preferred in places such as the jowl or cheeks, it is always preferred to take the fat cells from the place where more fat is accumulated. This process provides positive results in a shorter time.

This procedure can be applied to all areas of the body where fat is seen. In general, it can be applied to the abdomen, waist region, back region, hips, around the knees, legs, neck and jowl region, ankles, and arms. However, in cases where fat is removed from large areas of the patient, different techniques can be combined.

In this procedure, if the areas to be applied to the patient care in a small area, local anesthesia is applied to the patient. However, if the application areas are wider, the application is performed with the help of general anesthesia or sedation.

After the application, the patient can stand up on the same day and return to his social life in a short time. No pain or pain is felt after the surgery. It is at a level that can be relieved with painkillers in the pain that may occur. After the application, there may be swelling. These swellings go away in about 20 days. A corset should be worn for an average of 20 days after the operation. While it may take up to 1 month for the body shape to appear, it takes 6 months for it to take its final shape.

Nowadays, with the advancement of technology, it has been developed in the devices used. These devices are at a very successful and advanced level. Laser liposuction and laser lipolysis devices are classified according to the wavelengths they have and are described as slimlipo or smart lipo laser. Slimlipo has a wavelength of 924 nm and 975 nm. Smartlipo has a wavelength of 1064 nm.

The 2021 prices of the application vary according to the weight of the patient, the width and volume of the area to be removed, the number of regions, and the general structure of the patient. Again, liposuction prices may vary depending on the type of anesthesia. While a small area can be performed under local anesthesia, sedation or general anesthesia should be preferred in a larger area. Liposuction is a completely private surgery and private and state health insurances, SSK and bagkur (bağkur) do not cover this surgery. To learn about the prices of fat removal 2021, you need to be examined by your surgeon.
