| Dr. Yoho (while NOT performing liposuction) and friends |
There is a new device that we have had for several months that has revolutionized our ability to extract fat in a safe, even fashion. This instrument is a mechanical device which rotates 360 degrees in each direction every second. And this motion is safe and makes the liposuctionist's ability to extract fat in an even, rapid fashion much better.
Our experience with this has been all positive. We've never had any significant complications. We seem to be cutting our times down by about 25 or 30 percent, which helps the patient because they receive less anesthetic and therefore are not as groggy after the case. Having them get in the compression garment sooner is a big advantage because the tissues don't have time to get swollen.
There is nothing else different about how we do the procedure; we use the same local anesthetic and the same sedation techniques we describe in our other blogs, and the operation by the surgeon mimics identically the stroking that is necessary in the older technique.
We would like you to come in and we can show you this device and tell you more about how it has improved our liposuction results in practice.
The Best Thing Since Sliced Bread
We believe our Fractionated CO2 laser, the SmartXide DOT is absolutely fantastic and many of the experts in the field have said that it’s a huge advancement in laser technology.
The technique is that the laser sprays tiny treatment areas—literally, many tens of thousands of them onto the face with each treatment. It leaves bridges of normal skin in between the treated areas which are very tiny and which allow the face to regenerate in a very natural fashion. The treatment takes about fifteen minutes.
We have had great results with people of all different skin types; and particularly with moderate, intermediate skin types such as Hispanic and Middle Eastern skin types. The color improvement can be marvelous.
Please come in for your free consultation as soon as you can so you can get your laser treatment lined up. We offer free sedation if you have a driver--and your experience will be a very pleasant and relaxing one; furthermore, you won’t even remember the procedure!!!
