Liposculpture Honolulu is considered as the advanced version of liposuction. It is considereed to be more precise and efficient than liposuction.
Liposculpture Honolulu was developed by French doctor Dr. Illouz twenty years ago. The process is a combination of smartlipo and vibro liposculpture. Smartlipo uses laser technology to liquefy the fats on the patient’s skin. The laser used in liposculpture Honolulu ruptures the fat cells which causes the liquid substance to come out of the skin through the incision on the skin made by the surgeon.
The liposculpture Honolulu procedure usually takes one hour and a half up to two hours and a half depending on the volume of fat to be removed. Also, the type of surgical method used and the number of areas to be treated affect the length of the liposculpture Honolulu procedure.
Prior to liposculpture Honolulu, it is important to prepare the body to attain the greatest effect. Preparation takes the form of draining the tissue fluid from the body through massage.
In liposculpture Honolulu, the surgeon uses a tiny tube that is inserted in 3mm small incisions in the subcutaneous tissue. Through this tube, an anesthetic and saline solution is injected on the treated part. Once the anesthetics and saline solution are injected, the fat swells up and the fat cells become liquefied making it easier to remove and drain off.
After liposculpture Honolulu, the patient’s skin will swell temporarily, bruise and sore. Ultrasonic-Assisted liposculpture Honolulu or Tumescent liposculpture Honolulu maybe applied. During the first week after liposculpture Honolulu operation, the skin feels mushy and stiff on the treated area. The feeling might be intense in the first two days. Sutures and stitches will be removed by the surgeon after 7 to 10 days. Liposculpture Honolulu surgery will scar but will be almost unnoticeable. To heal the scars, surgeons advise patients to apply special scar lotion. The fatty tissues targeted by the liposculpture Honolulu are permanently removed, however the patient should maintain diet and excise to maintain the result. The contour of the body will be visible after two to three weeks. However it might take three to six months before the definite figure is achieved
Patients who undergo liposculpture Honolulu can go back to normal activities with in one to two weeks however, strenuous activities should be avoided for the next two to four weeks. Patients should also refrain from smoking to avoid prolonging the recovery period and to ensure proper healing.
The skin quality and the muscle tissue are also considered before undergoing liposculpture Honolulu. For overweight patients, liposculpture Honolulu is not the right treatment. The patient has to initially slim down. It is only during consultation that the surgeon can determine if the patient is in good health through one’s medical history and examination. If the patient’s health status fits the procedure, then definitely liposculpture Honolulu can be performed.
