Today liposuction has been going through different phases. In recent years, the type of cannula that uses both thicknesses and tips and the manner of fat extraction has been better defined. In addition to the cannula itself some devices have been added. Some of them emit heat caused in certain cases by the laser and in others by radiofrequency. The usefulness of these latest devices is that the thermal effect induces a retraction of the skin. In this way, skins that have a lot of laxity can benefit.

When should liposuction be used and when should lipolaser be used?
The use of laser-assisted or radiofrequency liposuction is useful when we have a sagging tissue.
For example, in the flaccid areas, such as the arms (one of the most requested), the radiofrequency source can be used to retract this skin. In these cases where the fat is extracted from areas where the skin is so thin and delicate (back arm area, inner thighs ...), the radiofrequency apparatus provides us with a bonus of retraction.

Can it be done in cases of extreme sagging?
In cases of extreme sagging procedures have a limit in which they will not give the desired result. Generally these cases involve making an extensive scar along the arm or inner thigh and the results will never be comparable to those of a patient with a good skin quality in which the fat extraction is moderate.
Does liposuction leave scars?
The scars of a liposuction are minimal. The area that we are going to approach with the cannula will leave a scar that can be approximately eight millimeters. Over time this scar will go unnoticed.
