What is the abdominal liposuction and its varieties?
Liposuction is a correction of the abdomen by removing the subcutaneous layer of fat in small areas of the body.
Unwanted fat or cellulite deposits build up on the hips, chin, knees, but most of all the plastic of the abdomen is in demand. In one session, you can get rid of 0.52 gallon of fat, almost immediately there is a decrease in the size of the waist by 4 – 5 cm.
More often this effect is shown through 1,5 – 2 months (after the recovery period). The final result the patient sees after 6 months, since the fat continues to disintegrate during this period.
Indications and contraindications for liposuction of the hips and abdomen
Do not forget that liposuction in South Carolina is a radical remedy that allows you to significantly reduce the stomach and thigh size.
However, this surgical procedure solves only the cosmetic task: the removal of those fat deposits that could not be removed with the help of diets and physical exercises.
Before liposuction takes place, patients’ reviews with similar problems should be read and contraindications for fat pumping should be studied.
Candidates for liposuction abdomen
Patients of plastic surgeons are most often women after childbirth: their belly is the most susceptible to the growth of fatty deposits.
In the postpartum period, stretching of the skin (formation of striae) and diastasis (muscle discrepancy) in the region of the white line is often observed.
In complicated cases, a correction of the abdomen is performed in combination with liposuction. Parallel with the removal of adipose tissue, abdominoplasty is performed, during which the muscle tissue is stitched and excess skin is removed.
The indication for the operation is a disproportionately enlarged abdomen, which disrupts the proportions of the body; Liposuction eliminates unevenness, formed after previously performed unsuccessful attempts to remove fat. Liposuction helps to eliminate the disproportion of the body of athletes, arising from training.
The reviews suggest that liposuction of the hips, like the abdomen, is most effective in local fatty deposits and postpartum striae. It does not cause problems and removal of invasive or laser method of chronic cellulite with condensed fat capsules and nodules.
Contraindications to remove subcutaneous fat from the abdomen and thighs:
-
- any diseases in the acute stage (including complications of chronic conditions);
- serious violations of the cardiovascular system, kidneys,
- hepatitis, bronchial asthma, tuberculosis;
- diabetes;
- oncological diseases;
- allergy;
- abnormalities of blood coagulation from the norm;
- violation of venous circulation;
- mental illness;
The problem of obesity is solved in different ways, using diets, therapeutic agents, physiotherapy. Doctors recommend first to lose weight in the abdomen without liposuction, and then remove the remaining fat.
Non-invasive liposuction also has its contraindications:
- presence of metal implants (in the region of the heart, joints);
- hernia, muscle discrepancies in the abdomen;
- rash, inflammation, external skin damage;
