<p><strong>What actually happens?</strong></p> <p>Microcannula liposuction, or as it is popularly known as MicroLipo, for breast reduction involves the use of a small microcannula (a small tube that can directly and safely be used to suction fat cells from the subcutaneous layer).</p> <p>The first step of the procedure is to administer small amounts of local anaesthesia to the breast fat, which results in firmness. The microcannula technique then involves a skin punch to make a hole in the skin of around 1mm in diameter through which the microcannula passes. The fat is then removed and a compression garment is fitted to manage the healing process.</p> <p>The body’s natural response to such changes is swelling but the technique is specialised in order to greatly reduce the amount of swelling and downtime associated with other liposuction techniques.</p> <p>The advantages are numerous and often draw distinctions from what surgical breast reduction cannot afford the patient. There isn’t scarring, it can be achieved with just a local anaesthetic and the downtime is reduced dramatically with minimal pain. Surgery can lead to necrosis, which MicroLipo largely avoids as trauma to the tissue is significantly reduced.</p> <p>There is also less risk of complications as it is non-invasive. The technique was developed by Dr. Jeffrey Klein and only a few European clinics are certified in the technique.</p>
