“The Skinny” on Laser-Assisted Liposuction

Laser-assisted liposuction is the “wave of the future for liposuction, liposculpting, and tissue tightening,” write two physicians in a recent review article in the journal Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery.

After noting that body contouring with fat removal was first reported in 1921, the authors describe how liposculpting has evolved over the years, and particularly how the safety profile of the technique significantly improved with the advent of tumescent anesthesia, which reduced the risk of bleeding complications and the need for general anesthesia and hospital stays.

The article then reviews current laser-assisted lipolysis technology and techniques, comparing the different protocols of various devices and wavelengths. The success of the technique, the authors note, often depends on the skill and training of the practitioner: “Proper understanding of the laser systems is necessary to reduce the associated risks of the laser. Thermal skin damage can occur if energy is delivered imperfectly or too highly concentrated.”

As new laser lipolysis technology is developed, the techniques will become more efficient, safer and cosmetically pleasing, the authors add. “Laser-assisted lipolysis is a rapidly expanding field of interest,” they conclude. “Its potential may be enormous and could radically change the paradigm of liposculpture. As experience and technology grow together, efficacy and safety will likely become less and less operator dependent.”
