Laser Liposuction
Laser liposuction is best for the body and the face when used. Laser lipo also has less swelling and bruising than other types of liposuction procedures. The disadvantages of laser liposuction are due to the slight chance that there may be burns or possible tissue injury from the procedure. Laser lipo can also cost more than traditional Liposuction.
How does laser liposuction work?
It uses a laser and its energy to deliver a fiber to the tissues that breaks up fat cells. Laser liposuction is still a relatively new procedure and not enough studies have been conducted to prove that it is a better option than traditional liposuction.

Traditional Liposuction
Traditional liposuction is fantastic for the soft fat areas of the body such as the arms, inner thighs, neck and lower abdomen area. The traditional liposuction procedure uses surgical instruments in a more traditional surgery manner, but is not necessarily better or worse than laser lipo.
How does Traditional Liposuction work?
Traditional liposuction works by using metal tubes (known as cannulas) to remove fat from the body. It focused on localized fatty deposits and sucks those deposits out. It is known to be very effective in areas where we have less fibrous tissues. In more fibrous tissue dense areas (such as bra rolls or the upper abdomen), other liposuction procedure types may be better. Talk to your plastic surgeon to discuss the possibilities of the various liposuction procedures and techniques.
What is the best procedure for me?
Traditional liposuction and laser liposuction are both excellent procedures and are both approved by the FDA for safety purposes. However, it is difficult to recommend one procedure over another when diagnoses are taking place through an article on the Internet. The best course of action is to research the two types and to come prepared with questions and concerns when you visit your plastic surgeon. For your personal consultation , it is recommended to choose a board-certified plastic surgeon with more than 5 years of experience performing liposuction procedures.
