Liposuction surgery is unsafe.
Truth: Liposuction technology from the early "dry liposuction" to the now widely used "wet liposuction", from the early ultrasonic liposuction to rapid negative pressure liposuction, liposuction equipment and technology are constantly improving, and the surgical pain is getting less and less, and it is getting safer. But liposuction is a surgical operation after all, and there are certain risks as long as it is an operation. The most dangerous complications of liposuction are fat embolism and massive bleeding. Experienced doctors can generally find and treat fat embolism at an early stage. However, the commonly used "wet suction method" for liposuction has only 3% to 5% bleeding, so massive bleeding is very rare. The death rate caused by liposuction is even smaller, and the data in the United States is about one in fifty thousand.
Accidents caused by liposuction are often due to doctors' inexperience or overemphasis on huge liposuction. Due to the chaos in the medical beauty market, many clinics, hospitals and even beauty salons without formal qualifications are involved in this project, which endangers the health and safety of customers.
For the sake of safety, it is very important to make a safety assessment before operation, communicate with doctors in detail, understand the possible complications, whether the professional ability of the doctors and anesthesiologists performing the operation is sufficient, and the health status of the patients themselves. Patients with severe cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetics and the elderly are not suitable for liposuction.
Liposuction can make you much thinner.
Truth: People who want to do liposuction should have an idea that liposuction is mainly aimed at deep fat accumulated locally, such as subcutaneous fat on the lower abdomen, waist, buttocks and outer thighs. Using liposuction in these places can make you lose weight quickly and successfully. But liposuction is not suitable for obese people, and its influence on weight is not great.
Because the fat density is very low, and the same amount of swelling agent is used before liposuction, it will swell after operation, so even if liposuction is more than 5000 ml, the weight will not drop immediately after operation. Generally speaking, the body weight can be reduced by 5- 10% or 3-5 kg within one or two years after liposuction.
However, after most patients spend money on liposuction, their body curves become exquisite, so they have more confidence and perseverance to control their diet and engage in exercise, and it is really easier to lose weight by wearing tight underwear.
The more liposuction, the faster weight loss;
Truth: Some women who are eager to lose weight like to be greedy when liposuction, thinking that the more they smoke, the faster they will lose weight. And some doctors who have no professional ethics, especially those charlatans who are not qualified to practice medicine, will encourage women to smoke more, because the more they smoke, the more they earn.
In fact, liposuction is not as easy as pumping water, and the fat is poured out. The amount of liposuction should be determined according to your own situation. You can't smoke where you shouldn't, you can smoke as much as you want, and you can't smoke endlessly. Doctors will control the amount of liposuction at around 3000 ml, and for people with heavy weight, it can be appropriately relaxed to 4000 ml, and 5000 ml is the safety limit. In fact, with the increase of fat extraction, the risk of surgery is relatively high, which puts forward higher requirements for doctors' surgical skills, anesthesia level and surgical equipment. Therefore, experienced plastic surgeons are needed to perform surgery and anesthesia in well-equipped hospitals to minimize the risk.
