Avatar n tn Laser Assisted liposuction: Advance Laser Assisted Liposuction uses a powerful laser to melt the membranes of each fat cell, causing them to break down, so there will be fewer traumas, means faster recovery.
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.
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 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.

5576961 tn?1377881511 I know two individuals in the theatrical industry who have had liposuction and they are both extremely happy with the results. There were no side effects. On the other hand the internet seems to be full of horror stories concerning how dangerous the procedure is. I am not in favor of unnecessary surgery, and people have died, however both of these individuals suffered from tremendous lack of esteem and depression and their appearance adversely affected their careers.
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 You are supposed to be able to return to your normal activities after only 2 days. My concern would be whether or not the results are as good as the results you see from the traditional lipo....
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 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.
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 m tn While liposuction is not specifically designed as a cellulite treatment, it is often used in combination with other procedures to improve the appearance of cellulite. Liposuction can provide more dramatic results than non-surgical treatments, but it is also more invasive and carries a higher risk of complications. When considering cellulite treatment options, it's important to keep in mind that there is no single "best" approach.
Avatar n tn I had a tummy tuck with liposuction 12 months ago. I am still swollen and sometimes my stomach looks distorted. I have not put on any extra weight since surgery.I am so frustrated because at times it hurts like a pulling feeling. I went back to the doctor a couple of times and he tells me to wear a ace band around me tight and i do but it does't help. Is this normal and if so how much longer does it take. i cannot exercise at all or lift anything heavy because it will swell even more.
Avatar n tn I had liposuction on my thighs two years ago which left my body deformed. I asked not to have anything removed from my buttocks, and on both sides fat was removed. I now have gauges on both sides, and when I squeeze my buttocks together it looks like I have holes on both sides. Can this be fixed? I also have ropples all over my inner and outer thighs, and bulges on my inner knees. I cannot wear a bathing suit any longer, and need to know if this can be fixed???
Avatar n tn I had Smart Lipo on my inner and outer thighs last week. I have a Mirena IUD and haven't had a period in months. Since I had this procedure I've been bleeding. Could the laser have something to do with this? When my Dr was doing my inner thighs, he got really close to my pubic bone and it did hurt when he pushed toward the bone. If this is a reason for my sudden bleeding I need to know for how long should this continue. Would this be like a regular period now?
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 f tn Be sure you read the complications he gives you thoroughly.There are a lot of us out here with permanent pain. It is up to you to be very informed.

Avatar n tn I fell in the hands of a cheater type surgeon, who only to remove the nasaloboial folds along my nose n lips conducted 4 facelift surgeries in less than 4 years, a liposuction of face, lured me to get an eyelid surgery, bla bla. He manipulated and exploited my sentiments, mislead me and grabbed handsome amounts out. He left me with humps and depressions all over my face as a result of all his stupid surgeries.
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 f tn Under these circumstances, liposuction is the treatment of choice. This procedure is associated with excellent clinical results and high levels of patient satisfaction. If you’re concerned about a prominent mons pubis, consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon is appropriate. This surgeon should be able to perform a physical exam and outline a treatment plan that addresses your specific problems.
Avatar n tn Similar to Hollywood starlets, most women in the adult industry undergo cosmetic surgery. They get nose jobs, breast implants, liposuction, and [their genital] extended inner lips are removed to achieve 'the clamshell look,' reminiscent of a pre-pubescent girl. Even the anus is bleached and dyed pink. Insecure and uniformed young women wanted a similar look so a booming new industry was born; laser vaginal plastic surgery.
Avatar n tn You will not be able to fully assess the results of your breast reduction for four to six months. Irregularities and asymmetry can best be addressed at that time. Often much of early asymmetries correct themselves with full healing, settling of tissues and scar fmaturation. The range of possibilities for correction can run from additional surgery including liposuction to fat grafting. This will need to be discussed with your surgeon.
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 f tn How can I get a shot in my belly to lose it.. liposuction shot for the belly?
