Body contouring with liposuction under local anaesthesia
Liposuction under local anaesthesia in Naples allows for the treatment of selected localised fat deposits without resorting to general anaesthesia. The procedure is performed following a medical assessment, involving the infiltration of a local anaesthetic solution and subsequent controlled aspiration of adipose tissue, with the aim of improving the body profile while maintaining harmonious proportions.
What is liposuction under local anaesthesia?
Our liposuction technique combines comfort and excellent results, eliminating the need for general anaesthesia.
We use an innovative device that:
1. Infiltrates a specific solution that acts as a local anaesthetic and softens the adipose tissue.
2. Aspirates excess fat to reshape the treated areas; the result depends on the individual situation and is not guaranteed.
Advantages of the Technique
Comfort during the procedure: local anaesthesia significantly reduces sensitivity in the treated area; however, discomfort may still be felt during certain stages.
Rapid recovery times: The procedure minimises trauma to the body.
Maximum precision: The equipment allows for body sculpting with natural results.
Conscious patient: the procedure does not require general anaesthesia, thus avoiding the risks specifically related to the latter.
Suitable for multiple body areas: Abdomen, hips, thighs, arms, back and chin.
How the Procedure Works
1. Preparation: Identification of the areas to be treated.
2. Infiltration of the Anaesthetic Solution: The infiltration of the anaesthetic solution reduces pain during the procedure, but does not guarantee the absence of subsequent discomfort or pain.
3. Fat Aspiration: Fat is removed using cannulas; as with any surgery, tissue damage and other complications are possible.
4. Refining: To achieve a uniform and natural result.
Not all localised fat deposits require a surgical procedure. In cases of more limited accumulation, intralipotherapy may also be considered, while for fat accumulation in the male pectoral region, a specific detailed section on pseudogynecomastia is available.
Liposuction under local anaesthesia in Naples: what does it mean?
Liposuction under local anaesthesia in Naples is performed by infiltrating a solution containing local anaesthetic directly into the area to be treated. The patient remains conscious during the procedure and there is no need to resort to general anaesthesia.
This method may be indicated, following a thorough medical assessment, for the treatment of localised fat deposits in selected areas of the body. The indication depends on the quantity and distribution of adipose tissue, the patient’s general condition and the extent of the area to be treated.
Liposuction is not a treatment for obesity, but a body contouring procedure. During the consultation, it is therefore assessed whether liposuction is truly indicated or if less invasive methods could be considered for more limited fat deposits.
Who can undergo liposuction under local anaesthesia?
This technique is ideal for those who:
• Wish to eliminate localised fat deposits resistant to diet or exercise.
• Understand the possible risks and accept variable recovery times.
• Prefer to avoid general anaesthesia, knowing that it is nonetheless a surgical intervention.
Recovery
Recovery varies based on the extent of the surgery and individual response. Swelling, bruising and pain may persist; the doctor determines follow-ups, precautions and times for resuming activities.
