1, what are the misunderstandings of liposuction?
One: liposuction is dangerous?
When it comes to liposuction, many people think of danger first. Any operation has certain risks, and the key depends on the size of the risks. After more than 20 years of development, the risk of liposuction surgery has been greatly reduced, and it has long been a quite mature cosmetic surgery, with less trauma, bleeding and postoperative complications than before.
At present, the more advanced liposuction is low negative pressure ultrasonic liposuction with blunt head and small diameter liposuction head. Its main advantages are unobstructed suction site, less trauma and less bleeding. Technically, in addition to the aspiration of "deep fat", the aspiration of "shallow subcutaneous fat" is also performed, so that the postoperative effect is better.
As long as you go to a regular plastic surgery institution, choose a qualified plastic surgeon, and strictly follow the preoperative preparation, intraoperative operation and postoperative treatment, the safety of liposuction surgery is completely guaranteed.
Two: Will it rebound after liposuction?
Many people worry that although liposuction has removed some of the fat, it won't be long before these fats grow back if you eat and drink or don't pay attention to exercise after operation, so liposuction has to be done again and again. However, this seemingly reasonable speculation is actually completely wrong. It will not rebound after liposuction, which is determined by the principle of liposuction surgery.
It turns out that there are two kinds of fat cells in human body. One is "superficial fat", which is distributed all over the body and sensitive to energy metabolism. It's easier to lose weight through diet and exercise. Another kind of "deep fat" is mainly distributed in abdomen, waist, buttocks, arms, thighs, calves, chin and other parts, which is extremely slow to consume and difficult to remove. Liposuction surgery is mainly aimed at deep fat.
The number of cells in deep fat is certain, and people's fatness is mainly determined by the size of cells. When liposuction surgery sucks out "deep fat", its quantity will be greatly reduced, even if cells become fat in the future, it is extremely limited. This is why many people who have undergone liposuction have found that even if they eat and drink with confidence, their weight has indeed increased significantly, but the liposuction part has not increased significantly. You can't eat and drink safely, or you will gain weight.
Three: The more fat you suck, the faster you lose weight?
Weight is heavier, it seems that people who seek beauty to lose weight will have such a misunderstanding: the more liposuction, the faster they lose weight. According to plastic surgery experts, it is not unscientific to think that the more liposuction you take at a time, the thinner you will be immediately.
The more liposuction, the faster you lose weight. Some women who are eager to lose weight like to be greedy when liposuction, thinking that the more they smoke, the faster they lose weight. Some doctors without professional ethics, especially those charlatans who are not qualified to practice medicine, will encourage women to smoke more, because the more they smoke, the more they earn.
Actually, liposuction is not as easy as pumping water. It is a safe limit to extract all the fat. The amount of liposuction should be determined according to your own situation. You can't smoke where you shouldn't, but you can smoke as much as you want. At present, doctors control the liposuction amount at about 3000 ml, and for those with heavy weight, it can be appropriately relaxed to 4000 ml and 5000 ml. In fact, the amount of liposuction increases the risk of surgery and is relatively improved. Therefore, the operation should be performed by experienced plastic surgeons, anesthetized by real anesthesiologists, and performed in a well-equipped hospital to minimize the risk.
2. What are the hidden dangers of liposuction?
1, liposuction is easy to destroy subcutaneous tissue.
The way of liposuction is to cut a small hole in the surgical site, extend the liposuction tube into the fat layer, and then suck out the fat by using the negative pressure of the liposuction machine. Traditional liposuction surgery adopts high negative pressure liposuction. After subcutaneous fat is inhaled by the liposuction tube, it is scraped off by the back and forth twitching of the liposuction tube, which not only destroys fat cells, but also easily destroys other subcutaneous tissues, and it is easy to bleed and scratch during operation.
Sometimes patients are afraid of losing too much blood and not pumping out too much fat during the operation, and it is also very painful after the operation. Moreover, due to the large diameter of the liposuction tube, the liposuction part will be limited, and the pumped part is also prone to uneven phenomenon.
2. The complications of liposuction are hard to avoid.
Although the probability of complications in liposuction is small, it is still difficult to avoid. If you are negligent and seek medical treatment improperly, complications will occur. Once complications occur, it is difficult to treat, and sometimes it will lead to uneven stomach. According to statistics, in the past five years, about 1 of every 5,000 people who received liposuction by qualified cosmetic surgeons in the United States died of surgical complications. In recent years, some cases of complications and even death caused by improper liposuction in China have also been reported from time to time.
Not everyone is suitable for liposuction.
Liposuction is mainly suitable for local obese people, such as women, especially postpartum abdominal fat accumulation, local hypertrophy of calves and thighs, arm fat accumulation and so on. , but not for minors and the elderly. Children's physical development is not perfect, and the amount of body fat is not constant. If liposuction is done blindly, it will not only cause fat rebound, but also destroy the growth cycle of children and endanger health. Secondary obesity secondary to other diseases must be treated according to the primary disease, which does not belong to the scope of liposuction treatment. People with severe obesity, hypertension, coronary heart disease, abnormal renal function, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, pulmonary insufficiency and abnormal coagulation function are contraindications for surgery.
