Does Cavi-Lipo work? (photo)

Tumescent liposuction in the right hands will produce a more significant result.Liposuction results are highly surgeon dependent. Find a board certified plastic
surgeon who performs hundreds of liposuction and liposuction revision
procedures each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before
and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the
results. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Thanks for your question.You asked about the most effective procedure for body contouring. That is liposuction. Before embarking on any non invasive treatments, I recommend you meet with a board certified plastic surgeon for an evaluation. He or she will be able to help you navigate through your options--both surgical and non surgical.

Non surgical fat reduction and skin tightening ( both of this happens with liposuction) can be achieved with many machines. Each of these may use a different technology. Cool sculpting ( cryolipolysis) , Ultrashape power (Ultrasound), Exillis Ultra(USG and Radio frequency), Sculp sure( laser ), Vellashape
The results delivered by them cannot be compared to liposuction. Not all of them are without downtime or discomfort. You must understand that once the fat lysis is achieved by these machines the body has to remove the fat cells by the process of " APOPTOSIS".
This may take weeks to months depending on the area treated. You will need multiple sessions and each area need to be treated separately. Any inch loss or tightening that you experience immediately is only because of dehydration of cells and would return to normal measurements within a couple of days. For best results you may require a combination of two or more of these procedures.
