Traditional liposuction is an invasive technique in which a plastic surgeon inserts a tube in a specific area of the body and suctions the fat out. Doctors use general anesthesia when performing this procedure. However, laser liposuction is a surgical technique that's not as dramatic as its predecessor. Because doctors use lasers, they can precisely pinpoint areas of the body and use a local anesthetic. While laser liposuction is considered an improvement, side effects still exist.
Contour Irregularities
Contour irregularities occur when the skin does not appear smooth. Instead, the skin appears to have lumps in the area where the procedure was performed. This situation sometimes requires more surgery.
