Cavitation. Read more about the procedure. Ultrasound liposuction: invasive and non-invasive techniques How weight and body parameters change

Liposuction without surgery at an affordable price!

If they bother you a lot body fat on the hips, abdomen, cervical or scapular areas, and you understand that Plastic surgery– not your option, cosmetologists advise you to take a close look at the procedure called cavitation, in Podolsk, has been practiced by specialists of the Unimed+ Cosmetology Clinic for many years with good results.

Used in cavitation, studied and repeatedly properties of ultrasound that have proven their harmlessness and effectiveness. The procedure is performed on an outpatient basis, without requiring any incisions or injections.

Soreness ultrasonic liposuction comparable to the effect of this sound on nociceptors during ultrasound of any organs. And provided that the cycle of procedures is carried out professionally and certain rules are followed, after its completion, cavitation does not require repetition.

Physical concept of cavitation

Physicists use the term “cavitation” call the formation in a separate section of a liquid medium (not in its entire thickness, as happens during boiling) of bubbles filled with liquid vapor.

This phenomenon can develop when the movement of one of the water layers accelerates - at the boundary between layers, or when the properties of a separate section of the liquid change, which can occur under the influence of high-frequency sound passed through it (such a wave will transfer its energy to the water).

The latter phenomenon is called acoustic cavitation and is used to correct localized fat deposits.

Gas-filled cavities in a liquid medium treated with ultrasound appear locally - in the zone where it reached a level above the pressure exerted by saturated steam.

Then, due to a decrease in the average hydrostatic pressure, the gases contained in any liquid medium of our body begin to form bubbles by diffusion.

Gas cavities grow until the pressure at the place of their formation drops to a certain critical value, which is below saturated vapor pressure. If the pressure in this area increases sharply, or the cavitation bubble enters an area of high hydrostatic pressure, it will collapse, forming a shock wave.

And since bubbles tend to expand and contract, while heating inside to quite high temperature, then during collapse an exothermic reaction occurs.

Cavitation non-surgical liposuction

If on the subcutaneous layer of fat
If a person is exposed to sound with a frequency of 37-45 KHz (but less than 70 KHz) and a pressure of about 0.6 kiloPascal, gas-filled bubbles will form in it.

By reducing the sound frequency, you can achieve an increase in cavitation cavities. Expanding in the interadipocyte tissue, they will compress fat cells from the outside, and forming directly in the fat, liquefy it.

When the threshold pressure is reached, the gas spheres burst, and the resulting hydrodynamic shock damages the adipocyte membranes. The most filled cells “burst” first, because the tension of their membranes is maximum.

Triglyceride fats released from cells with damaged membranes enter the intracellular intercellular space. Next, about 90% of them enter the blood, and less than 10% are absorbed by the lymph. Lipids pass through the liver, from their particles glucose molecules are formed, which are spent on the needs of the body.

Low-frequency ultrasound does not damage epidermal cells, myofibrils, or vascular walls due to their different properties from adipocyte tissue. The sound of the above characteristics does not reach the internal organs.

According to mechanical, thermal and cavitation effects such non-surgical liposuction is recognized as safe by the American FDA Association. They also proved that ultrasonic waves also benefit the organs surrounding the fat layer:

perform a kind of cell massage
due to thermal effects, they accelerate metabolic processes and oxygenation
revascularization of treated tissues is activated
increase the flow rate of interstitial fluid and lymph
mobilize fibroblasts necessary for the synthesis of the dermal framework.

In terms of its effect, the technique can be comparable to liposuction surgically . Besides:

the procedure is painless
you can work on several distant zones
no invasiveness required
there is no need for anesthesia or local anesthesia - side effects of local and systemic drugs are eliminated
there is no “washboard” feeling under the skin, as with classic surgical liposuction
results can be seen after 2-3 procedures
absence of hematomas, swelling, scars or redness in the cavitation area
there will be no scarring
no lengthy or complex preparation required
no sagging skin after cavitation (ultrasound provides a skin lifting effect)
convenient schedule of procedures: weekly, 5-8 times
In addition to removing fat, a lifting effect is achieved and improves skin tone and texture
the price of cavitation is many times lower than surgical correction
there is no need to limit your usual schedule of attending other procedures or wearing devices after treating fat deposits with ultrasound –

These are the positive properties
which a well-executed cavitation possesses. Podolsk is a regional center where cosmetology clinics have opened and continue to open, but please note: ultrasonic liposuction manipulation must be carried out by a qualified specialist who:

knows how to absolutely accurately select the operating parameters of an ultrasonic device
knows topographic anatomy vessels, endocrine and internal organs and will not be affected by ultrasound of the same characteristics as for treating the subcutaneous layer of adipocytes
taking into account contraindications to the procedure
will be able to help with the development of complications of cavitation
will definitely complement acoustic liposuction with the necessary procedures, having previously discussed this with the patient.

The Unimed+ Cosmetology Clinic in Podolsk meets all these requirements.

Cosmetologists have not only passed the necessary certification to carry out ultrasonic lipolysis, but also always discuss with each patient the possible effect achieved by cavitation and those actions that will help strengthen and fix it.

Who needs ultrasonic cavitation

If you notice at least one of the following symptoms, non-surgical liposuction is what you need:

deposits that you don't like on your stomach
cellulite
local accumulations of adipocyte tissue of any location
Irregularities, tubercles, and lumps appeared under the skin as a complication of surgical liposuction.

Using cavitation
Ultrasound can remove lipomas (“fat”) on the body without performing anesthesia or scalpel incisions.

Cavitation will be effective if the thickness of the skin-subcutaneous fold exceeds 2 cm, if the person has at least 10 kg of excess weight.

This is an ideal method to get rid of fat for those who, due to common diseases Invasive liposuction is contraindicated for those who, caring about their health, are ready to follow a maintenance diet (it incorporates the principles of a healthy diet).

Contraindications to cavitation

Although non-surgical liposuction is considered a well-proven procedure, the complications of which the Unimed+ Clinic has not recorded in 5 years of working with it, the technique has a number of contraindications:

diseases of the hepatobiliary zone (most of the fat will pass through the liver)
excess body weight of 100% or more
pregnancy
When using cavitation for lipolysis on the abdomen, umbilical hernias are contraindications
cardiological pathology
lactation period
diabetes
Cavitation cannot be performed in the area of unhealed wounds.

Execution method

Ultrasonic cavitation in Podolsk at the Unimed+ center will be carried out after a person has visited a preliminary consultation, where he will be examined by a specialist, questioned and prescribed, if necessary, examinations for possible contraindications to manipulation.

3 days before the chosen date, you need to give up lipid-rich foods, but drink 1.5 or more liters of liquid per day. No other preparation is required.

The cavitation procedure itself is performed as follows:

you need to free the problem area from clothes and lie down on the couch
the doctor selects the required area
in this localization mechanical actions are performed aimed at accelerating the movement of lymph here
this area is treated with gel, as a result, the transducer (attachment) moves easily over the skin, and ultrasound breaks down fat
the area where an excessive number of adipocytes is localized is treated by a cosmetologist with an ultrasonic transducer, which is not similar to an ultrasound sensor, but there is no difference in sensations
The phenomenon of cavitation in the treated adipocytes is produced by moving the manipulator in the direction of the regional lymph nodes along the massage lines. The scanning system controls the uniformity of the distribution of ultrasonic vibrations in the hypodermis
The procedure is painless - the most you will feel is a slight warmth in the treated area.

Ultrasonic cavitation as a procedure lasts 30-45 minutes, and after it lymphatic drainage massage or myostimulation is recommended, which will help facilitate the drainage of adipocyte breakdown products.

The total duration of the entire manipulation in combination with myostimulation or lymphatic drainage massage lasts just over an hour, maximum 90 minutes. The frequency with which cavitation should be repeated is once a week or 5 days (this will be determined by our specialist who has sufficient experience in this).

You need to keep in mind: due to the extensive fatty load on the liver, Unimed+ Clinic specialists will not treat more than 2 areas in one visit.

One acoustic cavitation procedure can trigger the breakdown of up to 500 g of triglycerides enclosed in the membrane, and in a course of 5-10 sessions you can lose a maximum of 10-12 cm of waist or hip volume. The effect will occur the sooner and will last longer, the shorter the period of time that has passed from the formation of fat accumulations to the visit to the doctor.

If you do not agree to let the lipolysis process take its course and wait for the disease to recur, follow these recommendations:

have a preventive consultation with a doctor at least annually
follow a low carb diet
drink sufficient (30-40 ml per kilogram of your own weight) amount of liquid
eliminate physical inactivity
watch your weight.

Healthy eating
in the post- and interprocedural period is to limit the intake of foods rich in fats and carbohydrates, the mandatory inclusion of fresh gifts of nature, seafood in the menu, fermented milk products, lean meats, fish and poultry. Be sure to take vitamin and mineral complexes.

The optimal anti-relapse measure would be lipolytic mesotherapy. This is an injection technique that uses a special line of drugs.

Doctors at the Unimed+ Clinic have proven their competence in performing ultrasonic cavitation. We carefully examine patients before performing this manipulation, and also warn them what sensations during and after the procedure they should pay attention to and tell the doctor performing it.

We emphasize that ultrasonic cavitation will be especially effective if you combine the efforts of the doctor and the patient in common cause combating local fat deposits.

Come to the Unimed+ Clinic and see for yourself!

Price for cavitation in Podolsk at the Unimed+ Clinic — from 1000 to 2000 rubles 1 zone(price for one body zone - hips + buttocks or stomach + sides)

Consistent diets and regular exercise successfully fight extra pounds. But it is difficult to endure restrictions; a forbidden piece of sweet beckons women exhausted by training, like a new toy for capricious children. Ladies break down and gain weight again. It also happens differently: a strict regime seems to help, volumes decrease and the skin tightens, but problem areas (stomach, thighs) are in no hurry to get rid of the fat deposits accumulated over the years. In both cases, clear contours of the body will be formed by ultrasonic liposuction.

Using this method, the doctor removes subcutaneous fat accumulations from any part of the body, including buttocks, legs, forearms, the perfection of which is difficult to achieve. The method is based on the cavitation effect: ultrasonic waves directed at fatty tissue form vacuum bubbles. The “balls” suddenly inflate and explode, and the cells die. Dissolved fat leaves the body naturally or with the help of a surgeon.

The underlying action gave the procedure a different name, but the concepts are identical: ultrasonic liposuction - cavitation. They are used with the same frequency.

External and internal liposuction – what to choose

It’s up to you to decide which type of liposuction will help you get rid of unnecessary wrinkles. Internal method– invasive – gets rid of fat immediately, external – non-invasive – you will be surprised by the results after 1-2 months. Each method has supporters and ardent opponents.

Non-surgical ultrasound liposuction will delight you with changes in body volume in a month

Features of invasive liposuction

In the traditional method, the emulsion obtained after cell crushing is removed during surgery. To do this, the doctor pierces the skin and inserts a thin titanium rod into the fatty tissue. The procedure takes place in several stages:

computer silhouette modeling;
marking areas of deposits on the body;
general or local anesthesia;
operation of an ultrasonic device;
vacuum suction of dissolved fat through the rod.

With the surgical method, the fat emulsion is immediately removed from the body through punctures

Thanks to its widespread use in past years, surgeons have refined the technique to perfection, and now the operation does not last long, is accompanied by minor blood loss and rare complications.

Non-invasive liposuction

The service became available only recently, after the invention of special equipment, but the number of its adherents is constantly growing. The ardent love of patients is explained by the preservation of the integrity of the integument and the absence of pain. No anesthesia is used, the skin is not cut, the entire procedure consists of external influence ultrasonic device on problem areas. Destroyed cells leave the body gradually, bypassing the lymphatic system and disintegrating in the liver.

It is impossible to remove all fat reserves in one session using non-invasive liposuction; usually the doctor and the patient agree on a course of two or three procedures.

With unconventional liposuction, the skin remains intact, anesthesia is not used

How weight and body parameters change

After invasive liposuction, you will lose weight dramatically: the body will evenly lose one and a half liters of fat, the main dimensions will be greatly reduced. The skin will be amazed by its smoothness; there will be no unpleasant consequences in the form of pits and bumps.

A non-invasive method will not provide instant miraculous transformation. Fat loss with it is more modest than with the traditional method - about 0.5 liters, initially the volumes will remain almost the same. Everything will change in a month, when the crushed fat deposits leave the body: fullness will subside, skin unevenness will smooth out.

Ultrasonic liposuction of the abdomen: how to decide on the procedure

Exercising and counting calories in meals can help with a small belly. If it protrudes significantly or has formed after carrying a baby or sudden weight loss, radical methods are required. Non-surgical liposuction with ultrasound will remove a small belly; if you have a decent-sized apron, you can decide on traditional surgery. Procedures on this part of the body are always fraught with subsequent sagging and stretching of the skin; often after liposuction, patients decide on a surgical tummy tuck. Therefore, you will act wisely by discussing all the nuances and consequences with your doctor in great detail. surgical intervention. Take your time with the final choice between the external and internal methods.

The procedure is especially effective on problematic “female” areas: abdomen, buttocks, thighs

How to maintain new body shapes after correction

Wise nature has limited the number of our fat cells. They are formed as a person grows, and after reaching adulthood they only increase in volume. Once you get rid of a fair amount of reserves, you can stay slim for life, provided that total weight the body will not change.

This effective procedure relaxes slimmer women and creates the illusion of eternal thinness. Don't deceive yourself: insidious fat instantly reacts to your indulgences own body and is deposited in new places.

Securing the results of liposuction is both easy and difficult. The tips are simple: balanced diet and physical education. But how difficult it is to follow them! To avoid falling under the influence of ultrasound again, limit your consumption of sweets and starchy foods, do not give up gymnastics, walking and swimming, and enjoy other weight-correcting procedures, such as massage (including lymphatic drainage) and pressotherapy.

The resulting new forms must be maintained with the help of gymnastics and diet.

Contraindications and delays for ultrasound fat removal

Liposuction is indicated healthy people, doctors categorically do not recommend doing it if there are problems:

diseases of the cardiovascular system;
diabetes;
epilepsy;
mental disorders;
exacerbation of any disease;
severe forms of allergies;
oncological problems;
bleeding disorders;
thrombophlebitis;
venous insufficiency;
chronic hepatitis;
infectious diseases;
renal failure;
severe diseases of internal organs;
serious metabolic disorders;
abdominal hernia;
skin damage in the area of surgery: rash, tattoos, scars, wounds, burns, abrasions, etc.);
metal structures in the body (pacemaker, artificial joint, etc.).

In some cases, it is better to postpone the procedure:

for teenagers – until they reach adulthood;
for pregnant and nursing mothers - before the baby grows up;
immunity disorders - until health is restored;
upon admission hormonal drugs– wait a month and a half after complete cancellation;
during menstruation.

Attention!
The procedure is not a weight loss method! Its goal is to correct your shape.

What is good about the method: effectiveness

Results of ultrasonic liposuction: fat deposits dissolved, skin tightened

Both ultrasonic liposuction techniques have many advantages:

no blood loss;
fabrics and internal organs are not injured;
loss of deposits is guaranteed;
sensitivity is maintained in the treated areas;
there are no hematomas or scars;
skin color improves;
wrinkles are smoothed out.

What dangers await you: consequences and complications

Unfortunately, even with excellent health and absence of diseases, the procedure does not always give the desired result. In addition, considerable experience in carrying out such operations confirms the risk of serious consequences:

blood clots may form in blood vessels;
are damaged peripheral nerves, as a result of which some parts of the body are long time go numb;
Sometimes completely healthy tissues and organs suffer.

Cost of the procedure: the price depends on several factors

The total cost of the procedure consists of several amounts:

preliminary examination with tests;
anesthesia - influenced by dosage, type (general or local);
the procedure itself is traditional, much more expensive than a non-surgical one, the price varies for certain areas of the body;
hospital stay after general anesthesia.

Also take into account the level of the clinic and the skill of the surgeon - metropolitan specialists are considered the most expensive.

Often the patient is forced to pay additional amounts - new services “pop up”, pre-agreed prices increase. This can only be avoided by drawing up an agreement with clearly fixed prices.

The ultrasonic liposuction procedure will not cause you discomfort and pain

Ultrasonic liposuction cannot be called a panacea; it cannot solve all the problems of people with fat accumulation. Services for getting rid of extra pounds are constantly expanding, innovative techniques are appearing, and new equipment is being developed and put into operation. But despite big risk complications and a fair number of contraindications, the procedure remains popular. If you decide to have liposuction, listen to our recommendations. And let your figures always be associated with chiseled figurines!

Correcting figure imperfections by removing local fat deposits (liposuction) has already become a routine and well-established operation with a minimum of complications. The constant improvement of medical technologies and the increasing demands of patients have led to the development of a separate minimally invasive direction in this area. Currently, it is being used more and more widely and is gradually replacing traditional methods.

Relevance of the issue

Excess body weight creates an increased load on almost all organs and systems, leading to the appearance serious illnesses(including diabetes, fatty liver, ischemic disease heart), causes discomfort in Everyday life and negatively affects a person’s appearance. Being overweight can lead to awkwardness in communicating with other people and create difficulties in your professional and personal life.

Ultrasonic liposuction

In this case, the effect of cavitation is used - the destruction of fat cells under the influence of ultrasonic pulses. The method does not require pain relief and has positive side effect– stimulates skin contraction, which is important to speed up the recovery process.

Electrolipolysis

The operating factor is alternating current high frequency, which causes the breakdown of adipocytes (fat cells). The procedure is low-traumatic, highly effective, does not require anesthesia and also has a tightening effect on the skin.

Cryolipolysis

The method is intended for treating local areas (stomach and sides, thighs). The working attachment of the device lowers the temperature of the tissues in the desired zone to approximately +25 C and compresses them. Fat cells are exposed to hypoxia and disintegrate. In this case, there are no skin punctures at all.

Injection liposuction

A complex of drugs is injected under the skin by injection (it includes bile acids, enzymes, vitamins and plant extracts) that cause active breakdown of fat. The method is safe and low cost compared to other liposuction options.

Patients often ask the question: where does the adipose tissue destroyed using non-surgical liposuction go? It is excreted naturally. First, it breaks down into fatty acids and triglycerides, is absorbed into the blood and lymph, then is finally “burned” in the liver. Naturally, in postoperative period the load on the liver increases sharply, so the technique is contraindicated in patients with liver failure. To facilitate the breakdown and utilization of fat, it is necessary to consume a large amount of fluid and follow the prescribed diet.

Laser liposuction

Laser liposuction is not used as monotherapy. Laser liposuction procedures such as CoolLipo, Slimlipo, Smartlipo and Prolipo are not actually alternatives to surgery, but are often used to support and improve the results of surgical liposuction. Laser fat melting before liposuction surgery makes it easier for the doctor to remove unwanted fat deposits in the abdomen, thighs, and waist.

How is the procedure performed?

Laser lipolysis is a non-surgical, innovative method that produces dramatic body sculpting results and is often used as a treatment to correct the shortcomings of traditional liposuction. Laser lipolysis was invented at the end of the last century with original name Smartlipo. Currently, there are many non-surgical laser lipolysis devices.

Equipment designed to perform laser lipolysis is based on the use of selective interaction between the laser beam and adipose tissue.

Laser lipolysis can be performed in areas that traditional liposuction cannot reach, especially in areas such as the face, neck, back and knees where standard liposuction can only be performed on a limited basis or not at all. Laser lipolysis can reduce excessive deposits of adipose tissue in the abdomen, waist, hips, buttocks, knees, pubis, and chest (false gynecomastia in men). Laser lipolysis offers the possibility of non-surgical facial contouring by, among other things, eliminating a double chin. Laser treatment used as part of combination therapy in the treatment of cellulite.

The best candidates for laser lipolysis are:

patients are in good condition general condition healthy, physically active, slightly over ideal weight;
patients with one or more areas of stubborn excess fat on the body;
patients wishing to improve skin elasticity to combat cellulite;
patients with sagging and uneven skin after classical liposuction, especially in the abdominal area.

Treatment time ranges from 20 to 60 minutes depending on the area of the body. Laser methods treatments are considered minimally invasive, painless procedures that do not require general anesthesia. These procedures are performed under local anesthesia. The discomfort felt by the patient during the procedure is minimal. Most often, patients feel a slight tingling or stretching of the skin.

Laser lipolysis devices use very thin optical fibers (with a diameter of 300 microns and 600 microns) placed on a special cannula having a diameter of about 1 mm. The doctor makes a small incision (mostly in the folds of the skin, so as to hide tiny scars). The heat generated during the procedure by the interaction of the laser beam and tissue can reduce excess body fat and improve the texture, firmness and elasticity of the skin. Thus, the fat cells turn into an emulsion, which is carefully removed from the body by suction, as well as naturally.

The laser beam penetrates the patient's skin, dissolves fat cells and causes heat shrinkage of skin fibers, giving the effect of immediate skin tightening and cellulite removal. The laser destroys the cell membranes of fat cells and leads to the release of triglycerides. During the procedure, the heat of the laser affects the tissues under the skin and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin.

Immediately after surgery, you may experience minor bruising and swelling of the tissue, as well as some numbness in the treated areas. They usually disappear within a few days after treatment. The swelling subsides in about a week. With laser liposuction, slight swelling may persist for 6 to 12 weeks.

Laser lipolysis requires a shorter recovery time and reduces the potential for many of the side effects that occur with traditional liposuction. Patients are usually able to resume normal activities within 1-2 days after surgery.

To improve the effectiveness of therapy, doctors recommend wearing compression garments for about one week after surgery and a short course of antibiotics to prevent infection. You should avoid strenuous exercise for one month.

Laser lipolysis provides:

constant destruction of fat cells;
skin density and flexibility;
reducing the appearance of cellulite;
rapid recovery after surgery;
minimal risk of complications.

After laser lipolysis surgery, the body gradually improves day by day. Gradually the skin becomes more elastic and dense. The final results obtained after laser lipolysis are permanent. These effects appear gradually after 1-2 months. In some cases, this process can continue for six months. If body weight increases again, fat will be deposited in different areas than those that were processed.

In most cases, to get what you want clinical effect One procedure is enough. After the operation, gradually over several months the skin becomes smooth, elastic and healthy. These effects persist for a long time when healthy life, observance proper nutrition and general body care.

Modern laser liposuction devices have efficient systems to ensure maximum patient safety and eliminate the risk of skin burns, which were sometimes previously side effect laser treatment.

Contraindications for laser lipolysis

Contraindications to laser lipolysis are:

epilepsy, multiple sclerosis;
diabetes;
thyroid diseases;
liver diseases, kidney failure;
bleeding disorders;
open wounds or skin diseases in the field of treatment;
pregnancy;
cardiovascular diseases;
taking antiplatelet agents, anticoagulants, thrombolytics, some anti-inflammatory drugs or photosensitizers.

Ultrasonic liposuction

The goal of ultrasonic liposuction is to reduce fat deposits in the abdominal area and cellulite. Ultrasonic liposuction of the abdomen allows you to remove fat in a much safer, more precise, less painful way than traditional liposuction. This significantly reduces recovery time. Ultrasonic liposuction is a modern non-surgical method for reducing fat deposits and cellulite located in aesthetically important areas, namely the abdomen, hips, waist, buttocks and arms. The method should not be considered as a form of treatment for excess weight!

The best candidates for therapy are:

women aged 25 to 55 years, with accumulation of adipose tissue mainly in the abdominal area and lower limbs, not necessarily with cellulite;

men aged 30 to 50 years, with obesity in the abdominal area.

How is the treatment carried out?

Ultrasonic liposuction is a non-surgical technique that uses ultrasound energy to precisely separate fat from surrounding tissue. The method does not affect surrounding tissue, therefore eliminating the risk of damage connective tissue, nerves or blood vessels.

The hardware method is based on selective damage to the membranes of fat cells with ultrasonic energy (without damage to surrounding organs - blood vessels and nerves), with the result that fat is released into the intercellular spaces.

The use of ultrasonic waves of different lengths, penetrating deep into the skin and emitting energy, comes to the phenomenon of cavitation in fat cells. Countless small air bubbles are created using a vacuum, which causes vibration of fat cells and affects the membranes of adipocytes, leading to their complete destruction. In this case, triglycerides are converted into glycerol and free fatty acids. The released fats are transported through the lymphatic and vascular systems to the liver, where they are metabolized and eliminated from the body through normal physiological processes.

Ultrasound allows you to perform a light massage deep in the tissues, which stimulates blood circulation, lymph flow and local metabolism, and also improves cell turnover, so that the body better gets rid of waste products. Toxins released from adipose tissue are removed from the body through the sweat glands and lymphatic and vascular system. The ultrasonic thermal effect has an analgesic effect and relaxes muscles.

Unfortunately, this treatment has a small disadvantage. In fact, the released fat is often not eliminated from the body once and for all. During one treatment, you should not eliminate more than 0.5 liters of fat, so as not to overload the liver.

During the hardware procedure, patients may experience discomfort, cold, tingling, stinging or burning. Patients describe the sensation of ultrasonic waves as deep heating of adipose tissue. After treatment, patients complain of discomfort (pain), bruising, redness and swelling. Redness of the skin lasts for approximately 4-24 hours. The area may have some visible bruising for 1 week after treatment. After the procedure in the abdominal area, patients must wear special underwear to achieve the best effect. Minor discomfort may occur when you exercise or apply pressure to the treated area for a week after treatment.

The effect depends on the individual metabolic rate of the body. The estimated time for fat expulsion is about two months. With ultrasonic liposuction, recovery time depends on the amount of fat that is removed from the body and the area of the body treated. During this period, the body naturally processes and removes destroyed fat tissue. It is extremely important to ease the work of the liver during this period.

To facilitate and speed up metabolic processes, proper nutrition is recommended, reducing the consumption of protein and saturated fats. Dishes should not be overly salty. After ultrasonic liposuction, it is recommended to consume at least 2 liters of water per day. Using dietary guidelines will help remove fat from the body and reduce stress on the liver. Best results can be seen after three to six months.

In order to achieve the expected results, you need to undergo a number of procedures, usually ten. The first series of 3-5 procedures is performed every 5 days. The next two series are held at intervals of 2-5 days.

Contraindications for treatment

Contraindications to ultrasonic liposuction surgery are:

pregnancy and breastfeeding, menstruation;
diabetes;
poor blood clotting;
HIV status;
hernia;
tumor diseases (up to five years after treatment);
heart failure, arterial hypertension;
viral and bacterial skin diseases, damage to the epidermis;
fever, weakness and exhaustion of the body;

Liposuction is a method of removing excess fat tissue in problem areas in order to correct the silhouette. This method is not suitable for the treatment of general obesity. Liposuction is the final stage in the fight against figure imperfections, advisable when the total body weight is within the normal range. There are several ways to destroy fat cells during liposuction: mechanical, radiofrequency, laser and ultrasound. Ultrasonic liposuction has become widespread, especially the non-surgical method of performing this procedure.

How does ultrasound destroy fat cells?

The process of death of fat cells (adipocytes) under the influence of ultrasound is called cavitation. Ultrasound destabilizes the contents of adipocytes, causing the formation of tiny vacuum bubbles in them, bursting and thus causing water hammer, which destroys the cell membrane. The contents of the cells enter the intercellular space, where 90% of it is neutralized by lymph cells as a foreign body and excreted by the liver. The remaining 10% is used by the body as a source of energy.

Fat cells are voluminous and have a stretched membrane, which is why they are vulnerable to ultrasonic waves. On muscle cells, skin cells, blood vessels, nerve endings Ultrasound has no destructive effect. And the internal organs and joints remain outside the zone of its influence.

Surgical ultrasonic liposuction can be performed under both general and local anesthesia. The choice of anesthesia depends on the extent of the operation. Subcutaneous fat tissue is treated with ultrasound, and the destroyed fat cells in the form of an emulsion are removed through small punctures in the skin using a hollow titanium tube connected to a vacuum pump. Ultrasound from the inside has a lifting effect on the skin, which allows you to do without it in case of small fatty deposits. additional methods skin tightening in the treated area.

This method allows you to avoid large blood losses when removing a significant amount of fat (up to 2 liters per procedure). Ultrasonic liposuction removes fat deposits evenly, without scars, pits and bumps.

Non-surgical liposuction began to be used relatively recently; it became possible after the invention of special devices. The main difference between this technique and surgical liposuction is the preservation of integrity skin. This technique does not require pain relief and does not leave bruises. Fat cells destroyed by ultrasound are removed naturally using venous and lymphatic systems body, breaking down in the liver into metabolites (less complex substances).

Since the natural process of removing metabolites from the body is not designed for their huge amount, no more than 500 ml of fat can be destroyed in one session of non-surgical ultrasonic liposuction. As a rule, 2-3 sessions are required to correct the problem area.

This method allows not only to remove excess fatty tissue in the treated area, but also to remove skin unevenness. The devices currently used for non-invasive ultrasonic liposuction are so “smart” that they themselves strictly control the entire process. In particular, if the ultrasonic wave is repeatedly directed to the same place, the device simply will not turn on. This avoids uneven removal of fat deposits and the “washboard” effect.

To enhance the effect, the method is often complemented by other techniques such as massage and lymphatic drainage.

The results of the procedure should be judged no earlier than a month later, since all this time the adipose tissue continues to be excreted from the body.

Contraindications to ultrasonic liposuction

Ultrasonic liposuction is a fairly serious effect on the body, and it has its contraindications:

any disease in the acute stage;
severe chronic diseases;
violation of the integrity of the skin in the area of intended treatment (scars, rashes, cuts, abrasions, etc.);
diseases of the endocrine system;
decreased immunity due to diseases or any effects on the body;
divergence of the rectus abdominis muscles, abdominal hernia;
hip and knee joint prostheses;
age less than 18 years;
pregnancy and lactation.

This should be remembered

Adipose tissue in the treated areas is not re-deposited, or is deposited as a last resort. But if you do not adhere to the principles of proper nutrition, limit physical activity and lead an unhealthy lifestyle, fat will accumulate in areas where liposuction was not performed. Any liposuction is only a method of local silhouette correction, nothing more.
