I Had Laser Liposuction and Aftera Few Hours I Had a Very Big Blister on my Left Arm, What Could Have Caused This?
Laser liposuction is the use of laser (light energy) to melt the fat. As laser units have become more powerful, the risk of burning/blistering has increased, especially in thinned skin areas or with variance from technical guidelines. With that said, even with proper usage in accordance with guidelines and standards, blistering can occur due to thermal and/or mechanical injury to the skin. I've seen this even with traditional liposuction - which further emphasizes the importance of performing technically sound liposuction. Please remember, whether you have an ultrasonic liposuction or a laser liposuction - "liposuction" is still the key component, and not the energy source. Please follow up closely with your surgeon for proper management of your condition.
