EXTERNAL ULTRASONIC ASSISTED LIPOSCULPTURE; TARGETED BODY CONTOURING WITHOUT THE BRUISING
External Ultrasonic Assisted Liposculpture (EUAL) is an exciting liposculpture procedure that combines the benefits of traditional liposuction with the efficacy of ultrasonic energy. The ultimate goal of EUAL is to contour and remove fat from the patient’s desired body area using ultrasonic energy, which helps minimize bleeding, swelling, and bruising commonly associated with traditional liposuction.
Patients who experience the innovative powers of EUAL for themselves often report getting back to their normal routines sooner, with rapidly visible results that make them excited to show off their brand new body!
WHO’S A GOOD CANDIDATE?
The best candidates for liposculpture usually follow a healthy diet and exercise regimen, but they’re unable to target specific areas of stubborn fat. In many cases, candidates are doing all the right things, but their bodies just clings to fat for a variety of reasons (age, post-pregnancy, hormones, etc.).

DR. VITOLO’S APPROACH TO EXTERNAL ULTRASOUND-ASSISTED LIPOSCULPTURE
Dr. Vitolo loves using the external ultrasonic-assisted liposculpture technique precisely because it delivers excellent results without creating as much bruising as with traditional liposuction.
In this procedure, Dr. Vitolo injects a fluid into the areas he wishes to treat (saline + anesthetic) as most plastic surgeons do, but instead of beginning the liposculpture, he applies ultrasonic energy through the skin to the areas that he will re-countour. The ultrasonic energy is transmitted through the skin, not damaging it, and softens and semi-liquefies the fat. Once this step is completed, he begins liposculpting the areas. Since the fat is now in a semi-liquid state, he does not have to forcefully break up the fat, but he simply removes it with very fine cannulas with suction. The ultrasound also serves to decrease bleeding and causes the skin to contract better after the procedure.
When the best contour is achieved, Dr. Vitolo molds the body by applying white foam tapes to the areas suctioned. This serves to keep the new shape stabilized during healing and importantly, prevent bruising! The tapes are removed after 2 days and normally there is minimal or no bruising.
Dr. Vitolo’s years of liposuction experience enables him to aesthetically contour your body fat to achieve your desired results.

IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME?
Dr. Vitolo’s laser lipo patients typically return to work and most normal activities 2 to 3 days after surgery. Healing is quick, and many patients have their surgery on a Friday, take their compression garment and foam tapes off on Sunday, and return to work on Monday. Dr. Vitolo prefers that patients who have had a number of lower body areas done, wear a compression garment, which can easily be worn under clothes, for about 2 weeks, but this is optional.
WHAT RESULTS WILL I SEE?*
With Dr. Vitolo’s patients, early results can be seen as soon as the dressings are removed. The final results continue to develop over time, but usually, in a week or two, they are beach ready. Most of his patients don’t take the pain medications he prescribes, as there is minimal postoperative pain, just a little soreness for a day or two. There is usually no visible bruising unless the inner thigh was don, in which case, there may be some.
Patients frequently remark that right after the initial garment comes off, they can fit into clothes that were always too tight for them.
