How to Avoid Fat Emboli Following BBL

Fat emboli refer to the entry of fat cells into the bloodstream which can then travel to the heart or lungs resulting in potentially detrimental effects. The risk of fat emboli following BBL has been real and estimated at 1 in 5000 to 1 in 10000. So, how to avoid fat emboli following BBL?

Although this number is low in relation to most surgical complications, the severity of the complication necessitates a review of the etiology and potential measures that can be taken to avoid this injury.

Power-Assisted Liposuction vs VASER Liposuction

This is a patient who was in good shape and chose VASER liposuction over Power-assisted liposuction (PAL) to get a high definition result.

Power-assisted liposuction vs VASER liposuction is a hot topic in the cosmetic plastic surgery industry. Power-assisted liposuction and ultrasound-assisted liposuction are two advanced modalities utilized in body contouring surgeries.

However, patients are rarely educated on the similarities and differences in these two tools. So let’s take a closer look at how each one works and what makes one better than the other.

The best liposuction in the world can only be achieved with superior results that can be achieved only by balancing maximum fat removal while managing skin redundancy.

Maximizing outcomes requires the use of appropriate machines and combining appropriate surgical techniques to achieve jaw-dropping results. Two required machines include:

Liposuction Side Effects

Hyperpigmentation may occur from activation of melanocytes due to;
a) physical irritation of the cannulas
b) heat generated by the ultrasound
c) hyperinflammatory cells infiltrating after surgery

Part of liposuction side effects of some patients are prone to hyperpigmentation and they include patients of Asian ancestry; these patients may require prophylaxis against hyperpigmentation such as the use of topical hydroquinone 4 % topically prior to surgery.

In the operating room, we use steroids in our tumescent solution in an attempt to suppress the activation of melanocytes. Postoperative steroids taken by mouth may also help minimize pro-inflammatory cells from infiltrating areas liposuctioned.

VASER Lipo Recovery

During your first 10 days following your contouring, you will be scheduled for a minimum of 5 lymphatic massages. The reason why lymphatic massages are so critical to your VASER Lipo Recovery is as follows.

First, you must remember that VASER liposuction’s success stems from its proprietary ultrasound energy which allows for emulsification or melting of your fat. Although 90 to 95 of your fat will be then suctioned off, there is 5% residual fat that is maintained in your body that will smoothly line your body and ensure a smooth contour.

Vaser Lipo Pros and Cons

VASER lipo pros and cons have been debated over the last ten years. VASER liposuction was introduced well over a decade ago as a proprietary technology that allowed for more comprehensive removal of fat from the body.

In order to allow for more fat removal of fat from the body, VASER liposuction utilizes ultrasound energy to literally melt the fat first which can then be suctioned out with greater ease.

This is the simple difference between VASER liposuction and traditional liposuction. However, VASER liposuction pros and cons were to become a great debate following its introduction in 2004. VASER liposuction pros and cons have clearly been unbalanced.

Avoiding Constriction Armband Deformity Following an Arm Lift

In order to avoid worsening a constriction band, the traditional underarm excision pattern must be modified to avoid the excision of skin in areas of arm banding.

In fact, the segments of arm banding preoperatively indicate the limits of circumferential arm tightening.

This means that the constricted band region sets the maximum reduction in arm circumference possible. All the other areas of the arm should be brought down the constriction band circumference.

As such, the constricted band will no longer be the tightest region! Occasionally, a plastic surgery maneuver, termed “Z plasty” can be performed to release the band by making it looser.

“Zplasty” utilizes tissue rearrangement
