Whether you have lost weight and you need to remove excess skin around your stomach area or you have stopped bearing children, and you want to regain an attractive flat tummy, there are different fat removal procedures that can help you achieve your cosmetic goal.
The Most Common Types of Belly Fat Removal Procedures
The most common types of abdominal fat removal cosmetic techniques available today include:
Stomach Liposuction:
This is a non-surgical procedure widely regarded as the most effective and safest belly fat reduction procedure available.
CoolSculpting, Velashape, and Vanquish:
These are also non-surgical belly fat removal options primarily used to remove smaller amounts of belly fat deposits.
Abdominoplasty and Panniculectomy:
These are surgical procedures aimed at not only removing large amounts of abdominal fat, but also achieving body contouring through the removal of excess flabby skin.
Other tummy fat deposit removal procedures include Smart or Laser Liposuction which is less invasive and requires a lesser downtime compared to traditional liposuction recovery time.
Is A Liposuction Lower Belly Fat Removal Procedure Right For You?
You will qualify as a perfect candidate for a liposuction lower belly fat removal treatment if you are relatively young with a pretty good skin and muscle tone around your abdominal area, but have excess amounts of subcutaneous fat deposits in your lower belly.
If you still have pockets of belly fat deposits despite all your efforts at dieting and gyming, you may need liposuction to reduce fat and promote body contouring.
How Does Laser Lipo Treatment Work To Remove Belly Fat?
With a Smart or Laser Liposuction treatment, your cosmetic surgeon passes a thinly built fiber optic cable into your skin.
This fibre optic cable is used in focusing a high intensity laser beam directly to fat deposits under your skin.
In laser fat removal, the laser beam will heat up subcutaneous fatty tissue under your skin by as much as 900 degrees Fahrenheit or 482.22 degrees Celsius which consequently melts off the fat deposit.
Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck) Surgical Procedure
With Abdominoplasty or tummy tuck, your cosmetic surgeon will perform plastic surgery to remove both excess fat deposits and flabby skin around your abdominal region.
In the hands of an experienced cosmetic surgeon, your entire stomach area can be greatly improved. This cosmetic surgery will not only eliminate excess fat and skin tissue, but also reduce stretch marks and cellulite.
But unlike laser liposuction which has a lesser downtime, the recovery time for this Abdominoplasty surgical procedure is anywhere from 10 to 14 days. Follow-up doctor appointments will also be required with surgical drains necessary for a number of days.
In addition to this, you will be expected to refrain from any physical activity for about six weeks. This is necessary to ensure the proper healing of both the surgical incisions and any damaged skin tissue.
Cold Treatment For Fat Loss
Zerona is another non-invasive cosmetic procedure to remove fat from your belly. It involves the use of a cold, low-level laser beam that is focused directly on fat deposits under your skin. The cold, low-level laser beam acts specifically by freezing fat cells.
The cellular constituency of the fat cells will be liquefied thereby shrinking the fat cells and tightening your skin in the process. The fat cells are not destroyed, but only reduced in size.
