More Fat can be Removed with Traditional Liposuction than with Other Techniques

If you have a larger amount of fat you want removed, then traditional or surgical liposuction is probably a better alternative than laser lipo.  Surgical liposuction can remove more fat more quickly than laser lipo, smart lipo, Zerona, or other minimally invasive techniques.  Only an exam with your plastic surgeon can determine if your fat on your hips can be removed safely, how much can be removed, what kind of anesthesia you need, etc.  Best of luck with your... more

Liposuction Technique

The larger the volume of fat to be remove generally is the main guide to what type of liposuction would be best.  From the description you provided, I would recommend standard liposuction technique.  This approach offers the best opportunity to remove the largest volume and achieve the best contour.

What technique removes hip fat the best

Remember, there are a lot of devices out there to treat fat. The critical component is the surgeon. You must choose one with experience in liposuction who has predictable results. Don't fall into the hype about technology A or B!

Vaser Liposuction is my personal favorite for many reasons.

If there is a discrepancy between top and bottom, bust and hips, liposuction will always make an improvement. However there are many types of liposuction. Regular liposuction is virtually obsolete. Would you rather drive a car or ride a horse? There is still a great deal of controversy about laser liposuction among plastic surgeons. The only thing most agree on is that the marketing seems to be better than the procedure. There are still many competing brands and wavelengths of laser... more

Laser lipo IS liposuction - choosing the right surgeon more important

Brand-name laser lipo procedures have been heavily marketed with claims that in my opinion are misleading, such as "safer" and "less invasive." This has caused confusion and your question seems to assume that laser lipo is not liposuction. The only difference is that the laser is inserted into the fat area before the liposuction is done; since there is a risk of burns with the laser, by definition it is riskier. The technology should not be the decifing factor.... more

Laser lipolysis for larger fat deposits usually requires traditional liposuction as well

In general, I have found that traditional liposuction with the superwet technique is a good option for treating porminent fatty deposits. Laser lipolysis can be extremely tedious for this and a large portion of this procedure is performed and accomplished with traditional liposuctiona anyway.

What is the best method of liposuction?

Both traditional liposuction and laser liposuction can produce good results in the hip area. The most important determinant in getting a good liposuction result is not the tool but the hands of the one using it. Skill and experience is far more important than any technology.

Laser liposuction or conventional tumescent liposuction for large hips

It is more important to have an experienced physician do your liposuction than to search for the technique that might be the best. All procedures involve the removal of fat and this must be done artistically and with an understanding of the anatomy and physiology of your body.

Liposuction or Laser Lipo

I would offer a combination of Smart Lipo Triplex and Body jet lipo for your areas. You may need up to 3 liters removed. Best regards Dr. Darryl j. Blinski.

Your surgeon skills are more important the device that they use

Please make sure that your surgeon is qualified and skilled . Liposuction should help you the get more even shape,but you also need to lose weight and maintain your your weight. In Iran there are few board certified plastic surgeon and a lot of non plastic surgeons that claim to be plastic surgeon, so do your research...

The surgeon is much more important than the tool he choses for liposuctio

it is much more important to have an experienced and talented surgeon with a proven track record of good results. the particular technology utilized to perform the lipo procedure is not important. great results are possible with  straight sal, ual (ultrasound), pal (power assisted) and probably laser too.    in the wrong hands, poor results are possible with all of them as well.
