Main Information
<p>After puberty, fat cells (adipocytes) remain constant in number and change their size and volume according to the lipid (fat) content the body decides to store. Sometimes this fat assumes abnormal proportions in well-defined areas, such as under the chin, upper arms, thighs, hips and waist - even when your body weight is normal for your height. Attempts to reduce these localised fat deposits by diet or exercise alone are often unsuccessful.</p> <p>Over the years, a variety of surgical interventions have been used to remove localised fat deposits including <a href="../../../Treatment/liposuction" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">suction-assisted lipoplasty</a>, <a href="../../../Treatment/vaser-lipo" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">ultrasound-assisted liposuction</a>, and power-assisted liposuction. Although these procedures can be effective in reducing relatively large fat deposits, they do result in a lot of bruising and swelling in the treated area, requiring several days to recover; and they can cause some permanent numbness of the skin due to nerve damage. In addition, very small localised areas of fat deposits can be more difficult to treat with conventional liposuction techniques.</p> <p>Laser Lipolysis is a liposculpture procedure that is generally more suitable for the removal of cmaller stubborn pockets of fat such as 'saddlebags', 'love handles', and 'double chin' etc. It can effectively reduce areas of fat resistant to diet or exercise whilst reducing the risks associated with traditional procedures such as <a href="../../../Treatments/Liposuction" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">liposuction</a>.<br /> <br />If you are considering Laser Lipolysis the following information will give you a basic understanding of the procedure. It can't answer all your questions, since a lot depends on the individual patient and the practitioner. Please ask a practitioner about anything you don't understand.</p>
