Ive heard that there are different types of liposuction. What are they?
If you encounter the terms “liposuction”, “lipoplasty” or “suction lipectomy” – You are hearing general synonyms for liposuction, not specific types or methods. The various methods or types include: ultrasound-assisted lipoplasty (UAL) – which has both external and internal variants, the tumescent technique, and the super-wet technique. More detailed information on the various methods can be found in the FAQ section entitled “Types of Liposuction.” Depending upon the your particular situation, the areas to be treated and the amount of fat to be removed, your plastic surgeon may recommend one method over another – or even different methods to treat different areas.
