Avatar f tn Neither is liposuction surgery or laser liposuction. Women have died as a result of liposuction surgery which is major surgery. I wouldn't recommend liposuction sugery, laser or otherwise to any woman or man for that matter. Laser surgery is still surgery. Have you ever seen a video of a liposuction procedure. It's horrifying. The after effects can include infections, burst veins and other life threatening repercussions.
224988 tn?1208104697 Smartlipo is almost always performed with liposuction. The laser only liquefies the fat which must then be resorbed by the body over a period of time or immediately be removed with liposuction.
Avatar n tn The first question I would ask is whether he/she is a board certified plastic surgeon or another kind of physiian who just happened to buy a Smartlipo laser. Liposuction is definitely skill and technique dependent and I personally find that treatment under general anesthesia with traditional liposuction (I use power assisted liposuction) gives consistently good result. Sometimes touchup procedures are appropriate.
Avatar n tn Hi there, New to the boards! I have had Hashimoto's since 2006, and I'm sure other women will agree that having this disease sure does a number on the puffiness of the face and neck. I am on the evil and disgusting Synthroid+Liothyronine combo until I can get back on natural thyroid meds. I'm still searching for a new doctor to prescribe it to me.
20904314 tn?1607606988 Liposuction is a surgical procedure that uses a suction technique to remove fat from specific areas of the body, such as the abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks, arms or neck. Liposuction also shapes (contours) these areas.
Avatar n tn The use of a Smartlipo laser assocaited with traditional liposuction in the presence of a major hernia, could potentially injury bowel (a major catastrophe). Smartlipo machines are sold to any physician who is willing to shell out the funds for this equipment irregardless of training or specialty. Since I do not know the qualifications of your doctor or the true nature of your hernia, I cannot comment about the appropriateness of your treatment.
Avatar n tn But I really just want to lose the flab in my upper arms and stomach without losing my *** or breast. I know that liposuction and tummy tuck is an option for me but I cannot afford the cost and all the complications that come with it. My friend pointed me to this advertisement she saw on facebook for a home lipo laser machine called slimray because she found it funny and ridiculous but i am really curious about it cos i am quite desperate to get rid of the fatty tummy.
Avatar n tn hello. Eight months ago I had breast reduction and abdominal liposuction surgery. After which my surgeon told me 2 liters of fat had been removed. I am 54 yo and weighed around 170 lb. I was told post op that my stomach was swollen. 6 months later I questioned the dr. about what bump in abdomen was. She told me I had a hernia. Now my stomach is protruding worse than it did pre- liposuction. Is it possible my liposuction caused this to appear? What do you recommend I do next? Both my family Dr.
Avatar f tn Although I have performed thousands of liposuction procedures throughout the body, I personally have never experienced a seroma except for one when I used ultrasonic liposuction (I don't use this technology any more). Aspiration of accumulated fluid and compression would seem the most appropriate therapy for now. Hardness of the tissues and lumpiness will likely follow once the seromas resolve. This should hopefully resolve by the time of your birthday.
Avatar m tn Many doctors are finding that low level laser treatment can help heal neck pain very quickly and very efficiently.
5576961 tn?1377881511 Hello tentbharat, You asked what the side effect of liposuction is ? Liposuction is major surgery and it is a very dangerous procedure. Many people have died as a result of complicaitons of liposuction surgery. I would not consider this type of surgery ever. It is a very dangerous and risky procedure as it can lead to death. Do yourself a favour. There are videos available showing how liposuction is performed. Look at one of these videos.
Avatar n tn Also he made my underchin uneven and unsmooth with his unneseecary liposuction of neck. He is now going to appear before the medical board for all he has done. Any advice will be appreciated to overcome the discripancies created by this stupid surgeon.
Avatar n tn I would seek a referral from your primary care physician or select several surgeons to interview who have been in practice for some time , have extensive liposuction experience, and you feel comfortable with after discussing your problem. Be sure they are real certified plastic surgeons and not physicians practicing liposuction from other specialties who have taken weekend courses.

Avatar n tn I am having liposuction and possibly an excision of some tissue for pseudo gynecomastia. I was wondering what I can expect my results to be like, and especially if I can expect there to be any wrinkling/dimpling in my chest. If there will be, will it be permanent? Is liposuction generally unnoticeable after a few months? I am 16 years old and 145 lbs.
Avatar f tn Usually if a woman has very large hips it's because of her pubic/hip bone, so there isn't much you can do. You can try liposuction, but I really don't think it will do much for you. It's your bone structure that gives you the shape.
Avatar m tn Is it possible that I could have developed dermatographic urticaria and urtacaria pigmentosa after a cosmetic liposuction procedure? I was a healthy 42 year old woman before i had liposuction to my stamace and back thigh areas. 5 months after that procedure I have suffered with dermagrahic urticaria. Could the surgery have interfered with my connective tissues in some way and caused this disease?
Avatar m tn Laser therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses laser energy to heat the skin's deeper layers. This heating effect is thought to stimulate collagen production and promote fat cell metabolism, which can help to reduce the appearance of cellulite. While laser therapy is often marketed as a cellulite treatment, its effectiveness for this purpose is not well-established.
Avatar f tn thank you for the replies I will keep you informed - this is a long journey.
Avatar n tn You need to seek a surgeon who is highly experienced with liposuction and does not rely only on Smartlipo for your procedure. Revision of liposuction with additional liposuction and possible fat grafting may be required to improve your appearance. Redo procedures can be successful in the right hands.
Avatar n tn In 1998 when my website went up, I [decided] never again would another woman think there was something wrong with her sex organ for lack of positive imagery. When young women saw images of porn stars, they became insecure with the appearance of their own genitals. Similar to Hollywood starlets, most women in the adult industry undergo cosmetic surgery.
Avatar m tn Definition for cold laser therapy or treatment to the neck, back, shoulder and arm?
Avatar f tn I would like to know how safe is liposuction? Do I need to worry about blood clots in my legs?(this was mentioned at the consult) and I have a 8 month old child that needs to be carried, will I able to do this post procedure, and will I be very sore? Also, is permanent numbness in the area unusual? Please let me know your thoughts and and professional opinion on the pros and cons of having this procedure done. Thank you. p.s how soon after can I resume running/weights etc?
Avatar f tn I cannot seem to firm up or lose any weight since the removal of the omentum.I am wondering if I could be a candidate for liposuction or if a surgeon would do this due to omentum removal.Would the procedure be safe.
Avatar m tn I'm just following up with you. So, the green light laser procedure was for what? I'm just trying to understand where you had an issue. Let us know. And is this better?
Avatar m tn I have had a total of 8 stents put in my heart, 6 in the RCA and 2 in the Obtuse marginal. My last stent was in 2014. I have elected to have some minor cosmetic surgery (liposuction) around the waist to help assist me in m weight loss. I know I have to come off Plavix 10 days prior and about 5 days after. Really wondering what damage could be done in 15 days of coming off Plavix if any? All my stents were drug eluding stents.
Avatar f tn I don't believe in liposuction as the answer, and the two drugs used injection used for non-invasive lipo are not anything I'd inject into my body. Phosphatidylcholine, one of the drugs in the mix, has shown evidence that it can lead to atherosclerosis The other, deoxycholic acid, is created from taurocholic acid, which is produced from cattle bile purchased from the meat industry.
