Ultrasonic Liposuction Surgery in Long Beach

Ultrasonic Assisted Lipectomy, or UAL for short, is a new advance in Liposuction that offers unparalled results that truly expands the role of liposuction in modern plastic surgery. Without going into a lengthy lecture on Ultrasonic Physics, and a detailed description of how UAL actually works, here is a quick synopsis of what UAL does. UAL uses Ultrasonic vibrations to liquify fat cells and ease their removal. In stardard liposuction, the surgeon uses a large needle to puncture fat cells by force and then suck them out. Ultrasonic liposuction is a much less traumatic procedure, which means it is also much gentler than standard liposuction. If you have any questions about Ultrasonic Liposuction in Long Beach, call us at (310) 784-0644 in Torrance today or request a consultation to meet with a physician to discuss your liposuction questions.

The blunt trauma required to break up fat cells in standard liposuction can result in substantial bleeding in the patient. This loss of blood limits the amount of fat which the surgeon can take in one procedure. Since Ultrasonic liposuction is significantly less traumatic than the standard technique, blood loss is dramatically reduced. This means that Dr. Spenler can safely take more fat in one procedure. As a specific example, with standard Liposuction Dr. Spenler would limit each procedure to 1500 cubic centimeters (1.5 liters). With Ultrasonic liposuction, Dr. Spenler has safely removed 4500 cubic centimeters in one procedure--approximately 1 gallon of fat! 

At our cosmetic surgery center in Torrance, Ultrasonic Liposuction also offers more benefits than just large volume fat removal. UAL works in areas of the body that were previously inaccessible to liposuction. For example, the male chest, areas of weight loss, and areas of previous liposuction can be easily operated on now, where they were extremely difficult with standard liposuction because of fibrous tissue and scarring. Moreover, Ultrasonic liposuction results in more skin contraction then ever seen in liposuction before. This means that the skin shrinks where fat was removed, so there is a notably reduced amount of loose skin after the recovery period. Now, since Ultrasonic liposuction is much less traumatic than regular liposuction, there is drastically reduced bruising and swelling as a result of the procedure. Overall, as Dr. Spenler says, "UAL is just a sharper knife, allowing fine sculpturing as opposed to blunt trauma."  UAL offers surgeons new levels of precision and accuracy while decreasing the risks and improving the results of liposuction.
