I had a botched vaser lipo plus an unsuccessful corrective with a bleeping family dr. with a fancy laser center. Now what do I do? Someone suggested Dr. Jeff Klein (inventor of the tumescent lipo), but he is a dermatologist. Do I go to a board certified plastic surgeon or a dermatologist for attempted correction? Thanks. Any suggestions appriciated.
How does liposculpture compare to liposuction?
Liposuction is the removal of fat to create a contour. Liposculpture was coined in the mid 1990's and implied the use of local anesthetics and small cannulas. It's really the same. Liposelection I'd the term that was introduced by Sound Surgical for the Vaser system.
I am currently 5'6" and 125lb female. I just have a small amount of fat around my belly buttom area and a slight buldge in the outer thight. I workout faithfully a minimum of 3 x a week. Does lipo work well with just a small amount of fat and if so is the recovery worse or better?
Being ideal body weight and having a healthy lifestyle make liposuction ideal. The recovery is very reasonable, with many patients going back to work after 2 or 3 days. I prefer to do these types of surgery under local anesthesia in my AAAASF certified operating room, most commonly with laser assisted technology. Patients are allowed to return to their exercise routine, typically, after 7 to 10 days. You can now confirm your surgeon is a board certified plastic surgeon at abplsurg.org, good luck!
