Laser Liposuction

Laser liposuction is a new technology in fat reduction that has been approved by the FDA as a method for removing fat in specific areas of the body. It seems that people no longer need to stick to the option of traditional liposuction.

Laser liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure used to remove fat in specific areas of the body. In this procedure a tiny cut is made on skin through which a 1mm diameter cannula is inserted. The laser tip of the instrument on coming into contact with the fat, heats and liquefies it. The melted fat can then be sucked out from the body immediately.

Prior to the removal of the fat, a cold laser is passed over each treatment site for 12 minutes. As this is a cold laser, there is no risk to the skin or surrounding tissue.

The laser liquefies the fat, allowing for easier removal and decreased procedure time. Other benefits of the laser liposuction, technique include decreased swelling and discomfort with a quicker recovery time. The patient should also notice more precise and aesthetically pleasing results.

The fats that are not removed from the body are simply flushed out through our lymphatic system. Laser intensity is low and can be adjusted as needed. A local anesthetic is all that is needed for laser liposuction.

Because this procedure is less invasive compared to other body sculpting procedures, there is only minimal bruising, scarring, tissue damage and pain. The incision is so tiny that it no longer needs to be stitched up. This means that the rate of recovery is faster. Patients can get back on their feet in a day or two.

Aside from melting fat, laser liposuction also promotes collagen production and tightens the skin. This is a great improvement compared to traditional liposuction. In traditional liposuction, some patients end up looking worse because of a lack of ideal skin elasticity. Some doctors may use laser liposuction after sessions of traditional liposuction to help tighten the skin.

Gynecomastia

Gynecomastia is an abnormal enlargement of one or both breasts in men. It is related to the excess growth of breast tissue and fat tissue in a variable proportion rather than the breast tissue alone.Changes in the levels of male and female hormones, or in how the body uses or responds to these hormones can cause enlarged breasts in men. More than half of boys develop transitory gynecomastia of variable degrees during puberty.
Gynecomastia can be emotionally devastating. Feelings of embarrassment, humiliation and shame are common. One does not feel masculine in a society where masculinity is exalted. Self-hate threads itself through all aspects of the individual's life, creating an insidious web of powerlessness. A man or boy with gynecomastia struggles with anxiety over such simple acts as taking off his shirt at the swimming pool and beach.
For many men, the best solution is suction assisted liposculpture. That accomplishes step one of the healing. Step two is psychological redress as as childhood taunting to a lifetime of hating his chest, the hurt feelings have been deeply rooted in the mind.
Men who have developed gynecomastia later in life from steroid abuse or some other cause like prostate gland disease may have little to no psychological distress. However, for some in this situation, it can leave them feeling out of control of their body or emasculated in some matter. Hopefully, corrective surgery will resolve these feelings, for some it will not and therapy will be needed to relieve the distress.
It is important to recognize the scars on the inside. This is difficult work because it means coming to terms with one's body and past. Acknowledging the pain, moving into a new relationship with one's body and changing how he thinks the world sees him is the key to healing and freedom.
Men often have a very difficult time talking about their breasts to anyone, but it is the first step toward relief. Realizing that they are not alone is a powerful antidote for the shame and a beginning toward healing. We are here to help you in a best possible way available today in the world.
