What is Liposuction ?









Several factors limit the amount of fat that can be safely removed in one session. Ultimately, the operating physician and the patient make the decision. There are negative aspects to removing too much fat. Unusual "lumpiness" and/or "dents" in the skin can be seen in those patients "over-suctioned". The more fat removed, the higher the surgical risk.

While reports of people removing 50 pounds (20 kg or around 4 stone) of fat have been claimed, the contouring possible with liposuction may cause the appearance of weight loss to be greater than the actual amount of fat removed. The procedure may be performed under general, regional, or local anesthesia. The safety of the technique relates not only to the amount of tissue removed, but to the choice of anesthetic and the patient's overall health. It is ideal for the patient to be as fit as possible before the procedure and not to have smoked for several months.

Candidacy

Not everyone is a good candidate for liposuction. It is not a good alternative to dieting or exercising. To be a good candidate, one must usually be over 18 and in good general health, have an ongoing diet and exercise regimen, and have fatty pockets of tissue available in certain body areas. Significant disease limiting risk (e.g. Diabetes, any infection, heart or circulation problems) weigh against the eligibility of a person for the procedure. In older people, the skin is usually less elastic, limiting the ability of the skin to readily tighten around the new shape. Liposuction of the abdominal fat should not be combined with simultaneous tummy tuck procedures due to higher risk of complications and mortality. Laws in Florida prevent practitioners combining liposuction of the upper abdomen and simultaneous abdominoplasty because of higher risks.

The basic surgical challenge of any liposuction procedure is:
  • To abstract the right amount of fat
  • To cause the least disturbance of neighboring tissue, such as blood vessels and connective tissue
  • To leave the person’s fluid balance undisturbed
  • To cause the least discomfort to the patient
As techniques have been refined, many ideas have emerged that have brought Liposuction Treatment Hospital Mumbai closer to being safe, easy, less uncomfortable, and effective. The marketing that goes on makes it hard for the consumer to determine truth from exaggeration however.

Areas of the body where liposuction is performed
  • Abdomen
  • Breasts
  • Hips
  • Pubis
  • Outer thighs (saddlebags)
  • Flanks (love handles)
  • Back
  • Inner thighs
  • Inner knees
  • Calves
  • Upper arms
  • Cheeks
  • Submental (chin),(gullet)
  • Gynecomastia (male breast tissue)
Recovery

Depending on the extent of the liposuction, patients are generally able to return to work between two days and two weeks. A compression garment which can easily be removed by the patient is worn for two to four weeks, this garment must have elasticity and allow for use of bandages.

If non-absorbable sutures are placed, they will be removed after five to ten days. Any pain is controlled by a prescription or over-the-counter medication, and may last as long as two weeks, depending on the particular procedure. Bruising will fade after a few days or maybe as long as two weeks later. Swelling will subside in anywhere from two weeks to two months, while numbness may last for several weeks. Normal activity can be resumed anywhere from several days to several weeks afterwards, depending on the procedure. The final result will be evident anywhere from one to six months after surgery, although the patient will see noticeable difference within days or weeks, as swelling subsides.

The suctioned fat cells are permanently gone. However, if the patient does not maintain a proper diet and exercise regimen, the remaining fat cell neighbors could still enlarge, creating irregularities.

Health benefits

Whether or not liposuction provides the health benefits commonly associated with achieving weight loss through other means is a matter of debate in scientific circles. Mainstream doctors agree that liposuction does not help to combat obesity related metabolic disorders like insulin resistance, while an article in NBC News claimed that liposuction can reduce levels of unhealthy triglycerides in the bloodstream.

Cosmetic Surgery and Procedures Mumbai India

Cosmetic Surgery and Procedures.


What are cosmetic surgery and procedures?

Cosmetic surgery and procedures change, restore, or enhance your appearance. There are many reasons for wanting to change or enhance your looks. If you have had burns or other injuries, were born with a birth defect, or want to change parts of your body for other reasons, you may choose to have a cosmetic surgery or procedure.


What are the general types of cosmetic surgery and procedures?

Cosmetic surgery commonly includes:

  • Reconstructive surgery. This is typically done to improve a visible scar, skin condition, or malformed body part caused by an injury, a surgery, a disease, or a birth defect. These problems can affect your day-to-day life, including your job, your relationships, and your self-esteem.
  • Elective cosmetic surgery. Being unhappy with something about your appearance—such as a large nose, small breasts, wrinkles, or fat around your belly or hips—is a common reason for choosing to have cosmetic surgery. These kinds of flaws don't bother everyone who has them. Many people don't think of them as flaws at all. But for other people, these things can affect self-image and confidence. Cosmetic surgery is one way to address them.


  • Filler injections, which include soft tissue fillers.
  • Botox injections.
  • Laser hair removal.
  • Laser resurfacing to improve acne scars.
  • Teeth whitening.
  • Sclerotherapy injections for small varicose veins and spider veins.

This topic focuses on elective cosmetic surgery and procedures rather than reconstructive surgery.

Why are these surgeries and procedures done?

For most of us, our physical appearance affects how we see ourselves and how others see us. The size, shape, and look of our bodies may affect how we feel about ourselves and even how we live our lives.

There is nothing wrong with wanting to change the way you look. Some people do this through diet, exercise, and other lifestyle changes. Others have cosmetic surgery, especially if they are unhappy with a certain part of their body or appearance that can be changed.

What are the risks?

Think carefully about the decision to have cosmetic surgery clinic India. Surgery always involves some risk. The risks depend on your health and the type of procedure you have. They can range from slight scarring to infection and even death. Serious problems are rare, but they can occur.

Also, there is no guarantee that you will get the results you want. Results are lasting unless you have surgery again. Talk with your doctor about the possible risks and benefits of the surgery.

Who pays for this surgery?

Insurance rarely covers the cost of elective cosmetic surgery and procedures. Unless the surgery is done for medical reasons, you will probably have to pay for it yourself.

These surgeries and procedures can cost a lot. Be sure that you know the total cost of the surgery, including the costs of the procedure itself, any medicines you'll need before or after the procedure, follow-up treatments, office visits, and other expenses.

Are cosmetic surgery and procedures right for you?

Surgery should not take the place of good health habits. There are steps you can take to help you look and feel young and healthy.

  • Eat healthy foods.
  • Get plenty of exercise.
  • Limit how much time you spend in the sun.
  • Manage stress.
  • Don't smoke.
  • Avoid drugs and excess alcohol.

Be sure to have realistic expectations about how cosmetic surgery may or may not affect your life. For people who are unhappy with their overall appearance rather than just a certain part of their appearance, cosmetic surgery is probably not the answer. These people are unlikely to be happy with the results of just one cosmetic surgery clinic India. They may end up having one procedure after another, which can be harmful and expensive.

Before you choose to have cosmetic surgery clinic Mumbai India, think about your overall health. Remember that all procedures have risks. And having a health condition such as high blood pressure or heart disease may increase the risk.

Laser Hair Removal Surgery


Virtually pain-free hair removal technology

Laser Hair removal is best method to remove unwanted hair. While there are many methods to eliminate unwanted hair, very few can eliminate hair regrowth while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged. And photoepilation is quickly becoming the most popular. Lasers and light sources use the principle of selective photothermolysis to eliminate hair and its potential regrowth without damaging the surrounding skin. During a laser hair removal treatment, light passes through the skin and is absorbed by the melanin in the hair shaft. This absorption raises the temperature of the hair follicle and thermally destroys the cells responsible for regrowth. The attributes of the light (wavelength, pulse duration and power) are chosen to ensure damage to these cells and not to the rest of the skin.

Ageless Medica provides you two great options for laser hair removal, both providing Alma's virtually pain-free hair removal technology. If your practice is looking to add laser hair removal along with several other aesthetic treatments, then the Harmony®XL's SHR handpiece is an ideal fit for your needs. If your business is looking for a dedicated laser hair removal machine, then the Soprano®XL with its SHR mode is ideal for your location. Either solution enables you to provide Alma's patient-friendly Pain-Free, Hair-Freehair removal procedures.

Technology in use

With HarmonyXL
To perform light-based hair removal with the HarmonyXL SHR handpiece, a large rectangular window emitting broad-spectrum light is applied to the surface of the skin. The energy travels harmlessly through the epidermis and dermis until it strikes the hair follicle, which contains a dense, melanin-rich hair shaft and bulb.
The dark-colored melanin absorbs the light and rises slowly in temperature, destroying the hair-producing cells surrounding the follicle. Because the heat is not sustained, however, no damage occurs outside the follicle area.
With SopranoXL
SopranoXL uses 810-nm diode laser technology, the gold standard in laser hair removal since its introduction in 1998. Unlike earlier systems, however, SopranoXL energy penetrates deep into the dermis (where the hair follicle is located) with high average power and a rapid 10 pulse-per-second repetition rate.
Using CW Pulse™ technology allows homogeneous distribution and more effective fluence to be delivered with improved patient comfort. The unique pulse structure of SopranoXL incorporates two discrete pulses. The first is a preheated long pulse that safely heats the tissue; the second short pulse effectively destroys the hair follicle and its surrounding vasculature.

Key advantages for physicians

  • IN-Motion™ technology - virtually pain-free hair removal without the use of anesthesia or numbing gels
  • Permanent hair reduction of all pigmented hair on all skin types, including tanned skin
  • Low cost of ownership with no disposables required

Key advantages for patients

  • Comfortable treatment with little to no irritation
  • Effective permanent reduction of hair
  • Little to no chance of side effects

Anti Wrinkles and Acne Scars Treatment in Mumbai India

Effective treatment for aesthetic imperfections

Patients spend billions of dollars each year on over-the-counter creams, lotions and rituals to treat wrinkles and marks on the face. As the population continues to age, this market is only going to grow. Aging, sun exposure, heredity and lifestyle factors including nutrition, alcohol consumption and smoking all may contribute to facial wrinkling, and prior acne may have made the surface of skin uneven. These problems, as well as certain other skin conditions, may be improved with the use of the 1320 Nd:YAG handpiece available on the Harmony®XL laser system. The 1320 Nd:YAG handpiece is perfect for the treatment of fine lines, wrinkles and photo-aged skin, as well as mild acne scars. You can offer these treatments to your patients as part of consumer-friendly Laser360 skin rejuvenation procedures.

Technology in use

With its pre-programmed pulse width and repetition rate, the 1320 Nd:YAG handpiece is easy to use and provides excellent results. When used to treat aesthetic imperfections, including periorbital and perioral wrinkles, the 1320-nm wavelength achieves deep penetration and targets selected water-containing tissue by raising the dermal temperature.

Key advantages for physicians
  •     Preprogrammed pulse width and repetition rates mean faster treatments with no downtime
  •     Lightweight design improves accuracy
  •     Fully interchangeable handpiece connects quickly to the HarmonyXL platform, making it easy to     switch between handpieces

Body Contouring & Treatment of Lax Skin in Mumbai India

As people age, the effects of gravity, exposure to the sun, and the stresses of daily life can be seen in their faces. Deep creases form between the nose and mouth; the jawline grows slack and jowly; folds and fat deposits appear around the neck. The AccentXL platform provides you access to the Industry's best dual-mode radio frequency solution. AccentXL provides you a proven service offering with patient-friendlyAccent Your Body™ treatments for toning and tightening.

Perfect for the treatment of loose skin, only the AccentXL system from Alma Lasers combines two radio frequency modes into a single device. Each proprietary mode — Bipolar and Unipolar — is delivered by a discrete handpiece to distribute therapeutic heat at different tissue depths within the body. TheUniPolar™ handpiece provides deep dermal and subdermal heating of large areas by creating a thermal injury that stimulates the body's ability to remodel collagen. The BiPolar handpiece provides local, superficial dermal heating. This shallow heating is very effective in treating overall skin laxity. Combining these two technologies gives you the most powerful set of tools in the battle against loose skin over all areas of the body.

Technology in use

The dual radio frequency modes produce therapeutic heat in two ways:

  • Tissue resistance to BiPolar RF current creates local, superficial dermal heating
  • UniPolar™ RF generates alternating electromagnetic fields that cause rotation and friction in the dipole water molecules of deeper tissue
AccentXL works by gradually heating the dermal and subdermal tissue to tighten and re-contour both superficially and volumetrically.

  • Collagen fibers contract and multiply, which firms and improves laxity
  • Connective tissue contracts to improve the skin's contour, texture and architecture
  • Circulation improves and retained fluids drain from subcutaneous adipose tissue to reduce edema, erythema and overall volume
Key advantages for physicians

  • Treats cosmetically unacceptable laxity due to age, solar elastosis or post-surgical trauma, such as liposuction
  • No expensive disposables, grids or return electrodes
  • High patient and clinical staff satisfaction
Key advantages for patients
  • Non-surgical treatment for lax skin anywhere on the body
  • Relaxing, enjoyable treatment
  • Continued effects up to 6 months after treatment
