Any operation is risky. At present, the risks of liposuction surgery are: blood vessels will be damaged during liposuction, and fat will be brought into the heart after entering blood vessels, leading to vascular embolism and pulmonary embolism, which will lead to respiratory distress syndrome for consumers; Excessive surgical anesthesia leads to consumer respiratory arrest; Excessive bleeding caused by liposuction leads to blood circulation failure.
In addition, complications caused by liposuction include:
Postoperative infection: the infection rate of this kind of operation in regular hospitals is about 2% ~ 5%, which mainly depends on the aseptic conditions of the hospital, the operation of doctors, the physical condition of patients, the recovery after operation, the rational preventive use of antibiotics and other factors.
Postoperative skin flap necrosis: If the subcutaneous fat is sucked out too much during the operation, which destroys the blood circulation of the skin, skin blisters or even necrosis may occur, leaving scars after the operation and affecting the appearance. At this point, the technical level of doctors is very important.
Delayed wound healing after operation: liposuction wounds are usually a few millimeters, which is easier to heal. However, due to excessive injury, infection, effusion and other factors, delayed healing may occur, and the small scar left after healing is also obvious.
Postoperative numbness and paresthesia in the operating area: After liposuction, the skin sensation in the liposuction site is bound to be affected, resulting in numbness and paresthesia, such as occasional acupuncture sensation and ant walking sensation, which generally gradually recover after 1 ~ 3 months.
Uneven operation area: liposuction is not absolutely uniform, so the operation area will feel uneven after operation, which mainly depends on the doctor's skill. Slight unevenness is inevitable, and it is advisable to wear an elastic bra after operation.
When the massage lasts 1 ~ 3 months, it can gradually become gentle. If the serious unevenness cannot be recovered after 3 ~ 6 months, liposuction is needed again.
The liposuction site is seriously asymmetrical: this is caused by improper preoperative design and intraoperative operation.
In addition to avoiding complications, not all people can achieve the purpose of weight loss and plastic surgery through liposuction. People undergoing liposuction must be overweight within 30%, with good skin elasticity and no excessive relaxation and wrinkles. The elderly over 60 years old, immature teenagers, patients with heart disease, hypertension, cor pulmonale, liver disease and kidney disease are not suitable for this kind of operation. Patients with the above functional diseases are prone to extremely serious complications and even life-threatening if liposuction is performed. Obese people with diabetes and blood dysfunction are also not suitable for liposuction. Before liposuction, the doctor will scan the person who comes for liposuction with ultrasound, so that the thickness of this person's fat layer can be clearly displayed on the screen to determine whether she can perform liposuction. The most common parts of liposuction are abdomen, buttocks, buttocks and thighs, upper limbs (upper arms and forearms), lower limbs such as mandible, calves and ankles, face and neck. Liposuction can also be used for breast hypertrophy and local obesity caused by lipoma. Because of the distribution of nerves and blood vessels, liposuction is forbidden or cautious for some parts of the body. It is relatively forbidden to be located on both sides of the middle of the abdomen, which is equivalent to the longitudinal area of the anterior sheath of rectus abdominis, the intersection point between the inside and outside of inguinal ligament 1/3 and the abdominal wall diagonally above the ligament, and the area along the great saphenous vein inside the thigh or the middle of the upper and lower edges of the buttocks. The amount of liposuction depends on the patient's own situation and cannot be generalized. The more liposuction, the better. The greater the suction, the greater the probability of complications, so control the suction.
At present, the amount of liposuction for patients is generally controlled at about 3000ml. For patients with heavy weight, it can be appropriately relaxed to 4000 ml, and 5000 ml is the safety limit. In fact, patients with a large amount of liposuction do not need quick success and instant benefit, and liposuction in stages can also achieve good body shaping effect and ensure their own life safety.
In addition to oral anti-inflammatory drugs, dressing change after operation, and exercise as soon as possible. Two days after operation, physical therapy can be performed at liposuction site with ultrasonic instrument to promote healing, accelerate swelling and relieve pain. No smoking. After liposuction, swelling and cyanosis may occur at the liposuction site, which is a normal phenomenon. Generally, the swelling begins to subside after one week, and cyanosis can last for three weeks or more. Some parts may be numb, and it will take several weeks to regain the feeling. Avoid sun exposure within 4-6 weeks after operation to avoid delaying wound healing and pigmentation.
Liposuction is a typical plastic surgery, not a general life beauty project. It is necessary to strictly select the indications, prepare before operation, operate during operation and handle after operation. Therefore, regular plastic surgery institutions and plastic surgeons with strict training and objective attitude are the only correct choices for such patients, and doctors must be careful to "guarantee tickets". In this way, the risk and complications of liposuction can be minimized, and the occasional complications can be handled correctly to achieve good body shape improvement.
Look carefully.
