8 Basic
Truths About Liposuction You Need To Know
Should you
be thinking about liposuction, here are some basic truths you need to consider:
1. You risk deformity
The Mayo Clinic has indicated that liposuction may leave the patient with
un-even fat removal which leaves your skin bumpy or wavy. Your skin can have
poor elasticity or have a spotted appearance due to the cannula tube used in
the surgical procedure. According to the clinic, these results can be with you
indefinitely. CoolSculpting, on the other hand does not harm your surrounding
tissue.
2. Fluids can accumulate
Patients have reported that fluid, or seromas, can form under the skin after
liposuction.
3. There are risks of infections
There are risks of
contracting skin infections when getting liposuction surgery, including life
threatening ones. There are documented reports of group A streptococcus
infections, and necrotizing fasciitis infections that have been contracted.
4. There is a potential that one of your
internal organs may get punctured
There have been
documented cases where the patient’s large intestine was punctured during
liposuction and the leakage infected his kidneys, liver, pancreas, and lungs.
Another patient lost an enormous amount of blood when her kidney was punctured
during liposuction, and she passed away.
5. The lidocaine used may cause toxicity
Lidocaine is often
used during liposuction to help manage pain. It is an anesthetic and is often
safe. When it is not safe, the results can be bad. It can cause circumoral
numbness to the mouth and throat in which the patient has trouble swallowing
and may have some choking, as well as tongue paresthesia. It can affect your
vital organs including your brain and your heart. You can also experience
dizziness, tinnitus, blurred vision, agitation, nervousness and paranoia as a
result. Some seizures have been documented as well. Lidocaine toxicity may
cause the heart to stop and can be fatal. Any type of anesthesia has
significant risks and may cause complications during any surgery.
6. Your kidney, heart and lungs can
develop issues as a result
Drastic changes in your internal fluid levels caused by the surgery can cause
severe problems to these organs. Surgery causes damage to blood and lymph
vessels and surrounding tissue, and this damage creates a clear fluid in
response.
7. Fat can breakaway during liposuction
and clog arteries
Unlike CoolSculpting,
which freezes and kills fat cells, and the cells are them methodically washed
away by your body, liposuction moves full fat cells. Loose pieces of fat may
break away and get trapped in blood vessels. They can travel to your brain or
gather in your lungs. There are documented accounts where this has caused fat
embolism medical emergencies including cases where the embolism blocked the
patient’s lungs and caused death. The signs of pulmonary emboli (fat clots in
the lungs) may be shortness of breath or difficulty breathing. If you have the
signs or symptoms of fat emboli after liposuction, it is important for you to
seek emergency medical care immediately.
8. Skin and nerve damage can occur
CoolSculpting does not damage your skin with the CoolSculpting
Elite process. This is not true of
liposuction. The skin above the liposuction may become necrotic, which means it
actually dies. It will change color and be sloughed off. Skin necrosis can
become infected with bacteria and micro-organisms as well. Liposuction can also
cause burns in your skin and compress the nerves. Your skin then will either
have increased sensitivity or complete loss of feeling. This nerve damage can
be permanent. The only thing permanent about CoolSculpting is your loss of fat
cells.

body purges them from your body. This treatment is non-invasive. There’s no
needles and no surgery.

importantly, there is no downtime. You can fit this into your busy schedule
