Devices that assist in liposuction have also been developed and are used. The VASER device in particular assists the surgeon in breaking down fat. VASER breaks down and liquefies fat cells using high-energy sound waves. Thus, fat tissue is removed more regularly and easily, and deformities are less common. With this device, post-operative bleeding and bruising are less. The sound waves used in the device are similar to the ultrasound device used to examine babies in the womb, only with more energy. Therefore, when used correctly, this device is harmless. In other words, it does not contain radiation. There is a limit to the amount of fat that can be removed in liposuction surgery without endangering the patient's life, i.e. without causing excessive blood and fluid loss and without disrupting their metabolism. This corresponds to 6-10 liters of fat tissue, varying with the patient's weight. Although measures are taken to reduce bleeding, some blood, along with the fat tissue, comes to the collection container that absorbs fat during surgery. Depending on the amount of fat tissue removed and the amount of bleeding, patients may need to be given blood during and after surgery. The patient stays in a private room in the hospital for 1-2 days after surgery. Unless there is a different situation, intensive care is not needed. In the first days, edema occurs in the areas where the patient's fat is taken and passes over time, and some patients even express regret during this period, but after 1-2 weeks, these troubles turn into happiness. The patient is also given special corsets that he/she must use for 1-2 months. As a result, we have created some awareness for the lipodema disease, which you may have heard of for the first time but is very common. Maybe you have found answers to the question marks that have been in your mind for years.
