EUAL – Using Ultrasound To Improve The Liposuction Procedure

Are you interested in liposuction for body contouring, but hesitant because you don’t want to deal with a long recovery period and the associated discomfort?

If that’s the case, it’s time to introduce yourself to the External Ultrasonic Assisted Liposuction, (EUAL).

What Is EUAL liposuction

This procedure uses the power of ultrasonic energy to help remove unwanted fat from the body. The advantage of this procedure is that the fat is partially liquified by the ultrasonic energy before it is removed by liposuction. This results in a smoother result, less bleeding and a quicker contraction of the skin after the procedure

Here’s how UAL Lipo works:

• After anesthesia, if administered, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Robert Vitolo will inject a combination of saline and anesthetic to the targeted treatment area.

• Once the solution is injected, Dr. Vitolo used an ultrasonic transducer to deliver ultrasonic energy through the skin. The ultrasonic energy passes through the skin, without injuring it and semi liquefies the fat. A small cannula is inserted into a small hidden incision through the skin into the targeted area and the liquified fat is removed with high power suction, thus creating a new shape for the body.

• The ultrasonic energy allows the fat to be removed without requiring any force to break up fatty tissue.

This new liposuction procedure leads to less bruising and bleeding, which greatly reduces your recovery time. In fact, most patients are able to return back to work in as little as two days.

What Kind of Recovery Can I Expect?

Recovery and downtime is incredibly minimal; most patients are able to return to work and their normal activities (including the gym) about two to three days after the procedure.
