Myrtle Beach Liposuction

Liposuction is a great procedure for those in the Myrtle Beach area who want an improved body contour. With a liposuction surgery, you can achieve a thinner looking body with the removal of pesky fat deposits on certain areas of the body where diet and exercise just do not work. Liposuction is mainly used to slim the hips and thighs, flatten the abdomen and shape the calves.

About the Liposuction Procedure

The liposuction procedure can be performed using either local or general anesthesia and takes a few hours to complete. A small steel tube called a cannula is used to suction out the excess fat from the areas of your choice. Once the procedure is complete, the body will be contoured and you will look much slimmer. The recovery will require several days of rest following surgery and no strenuous activity for at least a week. The full results of liposuction will appear over a span of six months as the tissues settle into their new contours.

Types of Liposuction

Here are some of the most popular types of liposuction today:

Tumescent Liposuction - The tumescent technique provides local anesthesia to large volumes of subcutaneous fat, which permits liposuction totally by local anesthesia.

Vaser Liposuction - Vaser liposuction, also called LipoSelection, is another alternate technology to traditional liposuction. Vaser ultrasonic liposuction is still a process by which fatty deposits are removed from beneath the skin to improve the aesthetics of a particular body part.

SmartLipo- SmartLipo is where laser liposuction began. Brought to the marketplace by Cynosure, the SmartLipo system offers all the benefits of a high quality laser lipolysis system and the benefit of experience in the market.
