FAQFrequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between tumescent and ultrasonic liposuction?
Liposuction techniques have evolved over the last 15 years, allowing superior results. Newer techniques result in better skin contraction and smoothness, with less blood loss and quicker recovery. Also much larger volumes of fat can be removed with safety, compared to early techniques. The tumescent and superwet techniques, performed at the Bougainvillea Clinique, involve injection of a saltwater solution which has local anaesthetic solution and small amounts of adrenalin in the solution. Ultrasonic liposuction is the latest form of liposuction, which also uses the tumescent or superwet technique, but in addition uses an ultrasonic probe to break up the fat before it is removed. For small liposuction procedures, ultrasonic liposuction is probably unnecessary, ultrasonic liposuction is superior in large volume liposuction, previously difficult areas like the back and enlarged breasts in men, or when additional skin contraction is needed.
Does liposuction help loose skin and cellulite?
Loose skin will contract to a variable degree with modern techniques of liposuction. Moderate cellulite can sometimes be improved. The limiting factor with liposuction however has always been the ability of the skin to contract. At the Bougainvillea Clinique, we have demonstrated that superior results can be achieved with the addition of Endermologie after liposuction. The benefits are enhanced skin contraction and smoothness, and significant improvement in the appearance of cellulite.
Is liposuction permanent, and will the fat come back?
Once fat is removed it will not come back, but liposuction will not prevent you from gaining weight if you do not watch your diet. Remember, if you do allow yourself to put on weight, the fat that is left behind will of course expand, though probably to a lesser degree than if you had not had liposuction. At the Bougainvillea Clinique, we help with weight loss, anti-aging and nutritional programs as well as Endermologie, Venus Legacy, and other body conditioning devices to help you stay looking good after liposuction.
