There is a liposuction treatment that is called mini lipo and it is showing very promising results. Mini liposuction is new to the cosmetic surgery practice and is used to reduce fat in spots around the body. In other words, it is a spot treatment and is a “miniature” version of typical liposuction. This new liposuction procedure works best when a person has just a couple of areas that pose a problem, which is why doctors recommend the procedure when someone wants to change a small area. For example, you may have a turkey neck that you want to trim down. In the end, the body does look more proportionate.
So why should you choose this mini version of liposuction over the usual version? There are a number of reasons. Both were created to remove fat, but it is traditional lipo that helps take care of those larger areas. The mini version helps define smaller areas of the body. It also costs less and can bring more definition where you need it. You can have many inconspicuous areas of the body treated and, sometimes, the changes are so small and effective that everyone notices a change, but they can’t quite put their fingers on it.
Mini liposuction is not a frightening procedure, despite the fact that patients undergoing the procedure area awake due to local anesthetic being used. Faster removal of the fat is facilitated by a sterile fluid injection into the treatment site. A very small cannula is then inserted so that it can suck out fat. In the end, the recovery is very short and not very painful. The skin trauma is so minute and so is any bruising or swelling that may occur. Despite the minor nature of the procedure, the results can be dramatic. However, this may also depend on how well the cosmetic surgeon performs.
Downtime is also minimal after mini liposuction in that normal activities can be resumed within 24 to 48 hours. Exercise is actually recommended within the three days following the surgery. Exercise actually facilitates healing.
For the best results, a transdermal cream is prescribed because it can facilitate the break down of fatty deposits through the skin and also helps the skin tighten. Even the development of fat cells is blocked so that the site that was treated can remain looking good for a long time. This is more of a maintenance treatment that needs to be kept up for the amount of time the doctor states.
