4. Medicated Fat Suction
This is the most common type of liposuction, where the surgeon injects a mixture of saline solution and two medicated substances into the treated area. The surgeon then makes small incisions in the skin and inserts a thin tube under the skin, connecting it to a device that suctions fat and fluids from the body.
5. Ultrasound-Assisted Liposuction (UAL)
This type of liposuction is sometimes used in conjunction with traditional liposuction. During UAL, the surgeon inserts a metal rod emitting a specific type of energy under the skin, which helps break down fat cells in the targeted area.
