Laser Lipo Toledo Can Help Reduce Sagging Skin
Liposuction is a procedure that many people may want but may not like the results from the standard treatments. Once the fat is removed, there is still the matter of excess skin that has been stretched out of shape for a long period of time. Laser Lipo Toledo offers a liposuction procedure that not only removes the fat cells but can also tighten the surrounding skin.
Skin retraction must take place after the procedure has been completed and in many cases this happens to some degree naturally. If the skin does not retract naturally, then the patient is left with loose folds of skin that hang in a quite unattractive manner. There are procedures and equipment available to help retract the skin to the point where it looks natural again.
Traditional liposuction procedures usually require that the patient undergo a second procedure called sub-dermal undermining to correct this issue. This requires that special equipment be used to assist the skin in retracting to its original shape or close to it. If there is simply too much skin to retract completely, the patient may have to opt for a removal procedure of the excess skin by surgery.
The undermining procedure is usually only required when a patient undergoes a standard liposuction treatment. If the patient opts for a laser liposuction, they may avoid having to return for a second procedure. The laser will both remove the excess fat and at the same time, work to tighten the skin and help it to retract naturally. This is done by the laser shrinking the collagen in the same area as the fat is being removed.
This is more of a secondary effect to the laser liposuction and may also be used to treat any excess cellulite if the patient desires. The change will be visible almost immediately and become very prevalent within the first week after treatment. Over the next few months following the treatment, patients will see marked results and these results will not fade.
Saggy skin does not have to be a possible side effect from getting liposuction. Laser lipo Toledo and performed in other cities shrinks the collagen in the skin, resulting in less sagging. The patient may also notice an improvement in the shape of the body and cellulite, two welcome side effects. This procedure can be used on various areas of the body, lending the person a great new appearance.
