Ultrasonic Tumescent Liposuction
(Lipo-Selection/VASER-Lipo)
Many men and women seen by Dr. Stanley P. Gulin at Plastic Surgery Associates of Naples-Ft. Myers wish to have undesirable areas of fat deposits removed so that their appearance in and out of clothes is much more contoured and proportioned. Often these areas of excessive fat are resistant to either exercise or diet. Many choose ultrasonic tumescent liposuction (Lipo-Selection) because of its ability to selectively remove fat while leaving nerves, arteries and surrounding tissue intact. This creates less bruising and swelling as well as shorter recovery time. The ultrasonic tumescent liposuction (Lipo-Selection/Vaser-lipo) also aids in allowing the skin to more easily shrink down to the re-contoured area. Common areas of concerns are the chest, abdomen, hips and waist, thighs, calves, arms and neck. Ultrasonic tumescent liposuction (Lipo-Selection/Vaser-lipo) allows Dr. Gulin to more accurately sculpt the areas that are out of proportion.
Although liposuction is not a treatment for obesity even men and women who are moderately overweight can benefit from ultrasonic tumescent liposuction (Lipo-Selection/Vaser-lipo). Often one or two distinct areas are out of proportion to the rest of the body. This allows weight reduction exercise to proceed to a better overall body shape. In addition, the psychological incentive to lose weight and exercise is also greater when these particularly problematic areas have been addressed.
Liposuction has made tremendous advances in the last twenty five years. Dr. Gulin of Naples, Florida was one of the first plastic surgeons to be formally trained in the technique of liposuction, having been trained by Dr. Bahman Teimourian who brought the procedure to the United States. Surgery is performed under twilight sleep anesthesia or epidural anesthesia with sedation in the state of the art fully accredited on-site surgical facility located in Naples, Florida.
Ultrasonic tumescent liposuction (Lipo-Selection) involves the removal of fatty deposits with a small tube or needle placed into the fatty tissue under vacuum through several quarter inch long incisions.
Prior to removal of the fat, the tissue undergoes tumescent infiltration with a solution containing numbing medicine and epinephrine to prevent bruising. Ultrasound is then applied through the incisions with a narrow probe-like device followed by suction removal of the fat using a tube or cannula under suction. Incisions are usually in either the hair bearing area or hidden under the bathing suit line. Following surgery the patient is placed into a compression garment to prevent swelling.
Most patients return to their usual work activity in about five days to one week following ultrasonic tumescent liposuction (Lipo-Selection/Vaser-lipo). The compression garment is worn for several weeks and exercise is resumed in about two to three weeks following liposuction.
The swelling in the liposuction areas persists for approximately two to four weeks but the impact of the procedure is seen already right after surgery. The final result may not be seen for approximately one to two months following the surgery.
Following ultrasonic tumescent liposuction (Lipo-Selection) at Plastic Surgery Associates of Naples-Ft. Myers by Dr. Gulin you will have a more
proportioned and shapely contour to the various parts of your body. Clothes will fit much better and patients find that they have a renewed sense of confidence.
