We all have thickness in some parts of our body, which persist and do not subside, despite the efforts we make.
For each of us the part may be different, but the solution to deal with them is common.
Meet Microlipo, a minimally invasive procedure, with a short recovery time, without scars!
What is Microlipo?
It is a form of liposuction and ιτ is suitable for mild cases of local thickness.
Some differences between Microlipo and liposuction are that it is NOT performed under general anesthesia or intoxication, only with local anesthesia is enough and the cannulas used to remove the fat are small in size. In addition, the recovery time is significantly reduced.
Microlipo is a less invasive method of removing local thickness and sculpting (or reshaping) some parts of the body.
Microlipo is the ideal alternative to other liposuction treatments that require repetition and can not have a predictable effect
Where can Microlipo be applied?
Face
The mini liposuction technique is used successfully in various areas of the lower part of the face. Mainly for the treatment of the fat that accumulates under the jaw, and in the contour of the lower jaw, causing the annoying double jaw. By removing the excess from the area, we create a more sculpted and youthful face with minimal interventions.
Knees
Many people show local thickness around (or above) the knees, which does not recede and is not aesthetically pleasing.
Buns-thighs-buttocks
In some people, and especially in women, there is a deposit of fat in the thighs and buttocks, or more generally in the legs. Many times, the increased number of fat cells located in these areas can worsen the phenomenon of cellulite, which is so common that it occurs in at least 9 out of 10 women.
Tip : Treat cellulite with the right Bodytherapy!
Arms
The thickness in the arms, concerns people mainly over 40 and especially in women it can significantly affect their self-confidence, as it can limit their clothing choices, while there is a case which causes cellulite in the area.
Belly
Probably the most common point of accumulated thickness, both in men and women. Even people who exercise a lot can have belly fat. It is worth emphasizing here that microlipo is ideal for small fat deposits in the abdomen.
Waist
The thickness around the waist, also known as "lifebuoy" appears on both genders, while in recent years it is a common phenomenon, since the fashion of low-rise pants constantly presses the waist so that fat cells do not diffuse in the waist area, but accumulate just above the line of the pants.
Bosom
Microlipo can be the ideal solution for men with gynecomastia, but also for women who want to remove a tumor from their breasts.
How is microlipo performed?
The operation is performed under local anesthesia, at the point of interest, so it is relatively painless. The local anesthetic solution has a triple action as it causes anesthetic action, reduction of swelling and the possibility of bruising in the area.
A small incision is then made to insert a small cannula to remove fat. The incision that is created does not need stitches!
Finally, the area where the operation was performed, must be bandaged, to avoid the formation of edema.
Microlipo can be applied to more than one area in the visit to the doctor’s office, however if the areas are too many a second operation may be needed.
After surgery
For the next seven days, vigorous exercise should be avoided and the pain that may occur is completely treated with common painkillers.
For about a week after surgery, there may be bruising and a small amount of fluid under the skin.
After two weeks, the doctor should make an assessment of the condition and check the healing of the incision.
How long will it take to get a leave of absence from my job?
Many people are able to return to work even two days after the surgery, however some prefer to take a leave for more days.
Fat grafting
The fat that is removed is a natural material that is completely compatible with our body.
It can be placed on many parts of the face as a substitute for fillers, to improve the volume losses that occur with age or to correct possible asymmetries!
Another property of the fat that we have received with microlipo is that it is rich in stem cells, which results in tissue reconstruction in the areas where it is placed, which is why microlipo is most often combined with fat transfer of the removed fat to the face or neck.
How many times have we wished there was a way to get rid of unwanted local fat without surgery?
Microlipo, is the best choice for an immediate solution to the problem of local thickness, with an almost painless way and minimal recovery time compared to other invasive methods!
