Ultrasound Assisted Liposuction

    What is Ultrasound Assisted Liposuction and is it effective in regional fat loss?

    Ultrasound-assisted liposuction is also known as ultrasonic liposuction. The biggest difference of this method from liposuction performed with classical techniques is that it aims to break down fat cells with sound waves and liquefy and remove them. Many effects of ultrasound waves, such as the disintegrating effect on fat cells, have made ultrasound-assisted liposuction more advantageous than classical liposuction.

    Is Ultrasound Assisted Liposuction Effective on Regional Fat?

    Ultrasound-assisted liposuction is one of the most effective methods for regional adiposity. Regional adiposity is a problem that can be seen not only in overweight individuals but also in individuals who are not overweight and can be triggered more by factors such as genetic predisposition. Although regional adiposity can be controlled to some extent with healthy nutrition plans and exercise programs, it may not be completely eliminated. Thanks to ultrasound-assisted liposuction, which can be activated at this point, the problem of regional adiposity can be eliminated quickly and effectively.

    Who Cannot Have Ultrasound Assisted Liposuction?

    The groups for whom ultrasound-assisted liposuction cannot be performed are generally the same as the groups for whom classical liposuction cannot be performed. These people can be handled under several headings.

    1. Obese or Morbidly Obese

    Obesity and morbid obesity are health problems that indicate that an individual has exceeded healthy weight values too much. Although many people see liposuction as a slimming method, this is actually not the case. Liposuction is a technique that provides only regional shaping and a very small weight loss. It is both illogical and not possible to perform any liposuction application, including ultrasound-assisted liposuction, on obese or morbidly obese individuals.

    2. Pregnant or Breastfeeding

    During pregnancy and breastfeeding, the human body changes in many ways. When these changes are combined with liposuction, it increases the risk of infection and may endanger the life of the mother or baby. For this reason, it is necessary to wait until after pregnancy and breastfeeding to perform aesthetic surgical operations, especially ultrasound-assisted liposuction.

    3. Diabetes Patients

    Diabetes can cause even a small wound to be opened on the individual’s body to heal difficult. Since liposuction is a surgical application performed by making an incision, it is not recommended for diabetic patients to have liposuction.

    How Much Does Ultrasound Assisted Liposuction Cost?

    The price of ultrasound-assisted liposuction may vary according to the situation. Many factors such as the area or areas where ultrasound-assisted liposuction will be performed, the patient’s expectations, the experience of the plastic surgery specialist, the general health status of the patient and the facilities of the health institution where the application will be performed may cause the price to rise or fall.

    Is Ultrasound Assisted Liposuction More Advantageous Than Classical Liposuction Method?

    Ultrasound-assisted liposuction is an application that can be seen to be more advantageous than classical liposuction from various angles. With the effect of sound waves in ultrasound-assisted liposuction application, it becomes possible to melt the fat and remove it more easily. In addition, thanks to the ultrasonic effect, the skin can heal faster and even tighten. However, some individuals may prefer classical liposuction instead of ultrasound-assisted liposuction for reasons such as finding the classical liposuction process more reliable.
