Laser Liposuction Vs. Traditional Liposuction

Serving San Diego, Oceanside, Carlsbad, & Nearby Areas of Southern California

Laser liposuction is now the safer and, sometimes, more effective liposuction method than traditional liposuction. This is why Dr. Reza Tirgari of Avalon Lipo & aesthetics offers laser liposuction to all of his San Diego and Carlsbad liposuction patients. Before we go over the many benefits of laser liposuction, let’s first review the steps performed during traditional lipo.

In traditional lipo, larger incisions are made and a cannula is used to loosen the fat and separate it from the skin. Next, a suction device is applied to get rid of the fat. While this method does deliver desired results, patients who undergo traditional lipo tend to experience more bruising, swelling and longer recovery periods post-surgery.

In laser liposuction, the incisions are smaller and often heal on their own, resulting in minimal to no scarring. This also leads to less swelling and shorter recovery time. Likewise, because laser light and special fluid assists in separating the fat from the skin, the back and forth manual motion by the surgeon is eliminated, thereby leading to less soreness, bruising and swelling.

This is why most patients now choose laser-assisted liposuction over traditional liposuction and in fact, most San Diego body contouring surgeons now only offer this method, as it is safer and more convenient for patients when compared to traditional lipo techniques.
