1. Side effects of liposuction

Infection

As long as a scalpel is used, there is a risk of infection no matter what the operation is. During liposuction surgery, infections can easily occur due to burns, wounds during catheter insertion, and damage to internal tissues caused by liposuction.

Massive bleeding

Failure to perform appropriate hemostasis during surgery or a surgical method that involves excessive bleeding can cause symptoms such as massive bleeding or shock. It is even said to cause death.

Fat embolism

Due to liposuction, loose fat tissue may enter blood vessels and cause blood clots. A blood clot that occurs in the lungs is called a pulmonary embolism, and a blood clot that travels to the brain is called a cerebral embolism. If these symptoms are not treated quickly, they can lead to sequelae and, at worst, death.

Injury to internal organs

During liposuction surgery, there is a possibility of damage to internal organs due to incorrect catheter insertion. There have also been cases of death from internal organ damage.

Hazards caused by anesthesia

In liposuction surgery, "local anesthesia" is used to inject an anesthetic directly at the surgical site, and a small catheter is inserted around the dura mater covering the spinal cord to inject anesthesia. There are four anesthesia methods: epidural anesthesia, in which an anesthetic is dripped into a vein, intravenous anesthesia, and general anesthesia, in which an anesthetic acts on the central nervous system and causes a person to lose consciousness.

The dangers of these four anesthesia methods vary. Especially general anesthesia, when strong anesthetics are used or when the body is not adapted to the anesthetics, it can cause allergies or shock. Some cases can be life-threatening.
