Liposuction Safety by Dr. John A. Millard
Liposuction in the Denver area has evolved into one of the safest procedures in plastic surgery. A good liposuction surgeon is one that does the procedure a lot, understands the differences in fat-anatomy throughout the body, and understands the proper use of the many tools that are available to him or her to remove fat and help the skin tighten. Many of the earlier complications that physicians were seeing with older more traditional liposuction are being minimized by the use of significant improvements in liposculpting and liposuction technology. Two of the most significant additions to this include that of the VASER ultrasound liposuction system and the Smartlipo Laserlipolysis system. Both of these take advantage of an additional step in the bodysculpting and liposuction process whereby they prepare the fat in a way that allows it to be more gently removed, thus minimizing trauma to surrounding tissues. This results in a more rapid less bruising, less swelling, and more rapid recovery in many instances. These technologies also allow the surgeon with proper training to be aggressive in many cases and obtain results previously unobtainable by older, dated technologies. One example of this is VASER HI def Liposculpture.
