                             Risk and Complication in liposuction

An important step in ensuring that the risks and complications of the liposuction procedure are minimized is to ensure that you pick a highly skilled surgeon. He or she must truly be a surgeon who is trained in all aspects of liposuction including residency.

Ensure that he or she is board-certified and that the procedures he or she performs are in line with his or her training. Ensure that the surgeon has excellent credentials and is highly recommended by his or her patients who had the same procedure done. If possible, you can also get recommendations from the surgeon from other doctors as well.

Although this procedure is a relatively safe procedure in the right hands, it can also be a very dangerous procedure with the loss of life as a consequence, not to mention bad results if you use someone without an idea of what he or she is doing and there are plenty of those out there willing to perform this procedure without the experience and know-how.

Even when the surgeon is highly skilled, issues may still arise but it is better to be in the hands of someone who may have a better understanding of how to handle unforeseen issues that may arise during the liposuction procedure.

Risks and complications that may arise include;

•  Furthermore, rare in liposuction, the infection may occur. If it does occur, it will usually be very aggressive and cover large areas very quickly to the point of creating a life-threatening medical emergency that is not treated immediately.

•  Another risk is bleeding. There will be some blood loss during and after liposuction of about a pint or so which does not require a blood transfusion usually. But there is always a risk that blood loss can increase significantly, especially after the procedure that may cause a medical emergency.

•  Liposuction is one of the surgical procedures with a serious risk of causing blood clots in the legs that may travel to the lungs which could be fatal. Many surgeons use many ways to reduce the risk of blood clots such as the use of compression boots.

• The cannula used in liposuction to break up fat before it is suctioned out is blunt-tipped and hollow and can puncture any organ that it comes in contact with during the procedure which can lead to death if the puncture is not noticed and fixed. The cannula can also pierce the skin and cause scarring.

•  Liposuction-specific risks include dimpling, waviness as well as hanging skin. The potential for these occurring should be addressed by the surgeon prior to the surgery after examining your skin type.

•  If you have a chronic disease or other diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, etc, or a weakened immune system, there will be an increased risk of complications from the surgery so you need to evaluate whether this risk is too high to go through with liposuction.
