Laser liposuction removes fat in specific area of the body by destroying the fat cells and flushing the byproducts out of the system. It is a very safe procedure when performed by a qualified technician. The procedure is low risk and there are very few things that can go wrong.
Non-Invasive vs Invasive Liposuction
There are both invasive and non-invasive types of laser liposuction. At Bellissimo You, we use the non-invasive style of laser liposuction. A laser pad is used to direct the laser energy so there is no penetration of the skin. With this type of non-invasive procedure, there are very few risks.
Skin Burn Risk
Skin burns are the most common mishaps with non-invasive laser lipo. The laser increases the heat in the area where it is applied. Applying too much power can burn the skin. A qualified technician, and careful monitoring of the heat can eliminate the possibility of burns during the treatment.
Healthy People Need Not Worry
For a healthy person, laser liposuction is virtually trouble free. It is one of the safest fat reducing treatments available today. However, there are always some possible risks if the client has underlying medical problems. That is why a questionnaire is filled out before the procedure is done. Do not get treatments if you have one of the following:
- Pregnant
- Cancer
- AIDS
- Breast feeding
- Metal plates inside of the human body
- Heart condition
Dealing With Loose Skin
Laser lipo also has some skin tightening properties. Laser lipo treatments can help you loose the fat and also tighten up a bit. But, if there is a lot of fat removed, then there will be some loose skin after the treatments. If you want more skin tightening, go with a follow-up course of radio frequency skin tightening.
Dealing With Uneven Skin
Will the fat redistribution be uneven? Smooth, natural results are based largely on the skill of the technician. If, during a course of treatments, you notice uneven skin, you can address those areas in the remaining treatments. Non-invasive laser liposuction courses can be repeated. Uneven skin can be addresses with either additional treatments or RF skin tightening treatments depending on the desired outcome.
Dealing With Lumpy Skin
Will my skin look lumpy? A qualified laser lipo technician is the key to quality results. However, after going through a course of laser liposuction, there may be some uneven skin due to the removal of significant amount fat. Dealing with lumpy skin during a course of treatments is the same as dealing with uneven and loose skin. Use additional sessions of laser lipo to even out the skin or apply RF skin tightening to the problem area.
Radio Frequency Skin Tightening After Laser Lipo
Although laser lipo treatments have some skin tightening properties, if a substantial amount of fat is removed from one area of the body, the skin there may be loose. Following up with a course of radio frequency skin tightening is a great way to tighten up the skin and completely erase the effects of the extra fat. The combination of laser lipo and radio frequency skin tightening is a wonderful and safe way to get rid of unwanted fat and look great.*
