PREMIER POWER ASSISTED LIPOSUCTION IN CHANDLER

What is Power Assisted Liposuction (PAL)?

Power Assisted Liposuction (PAL) provides a modern solution for reshaping the body by removing stubborn fat deposits. The procedure employs a specialized handpiece attached to a cannula, a narrow tube that oscillates in quick, controlled motions. These vibrations gently dislodge fat cells, allowing for their removal without the use of heat, which enhances the safety and effectiveness of the process.

Power Assisted Liposuction (PAL) is sometimes recognized by the brand of the device performing the procedure. At True Contour Medical in Chandler, we trust the Vibrasat Pro by MollerMedical, as it delivers excellent results for a wide range of areas and ensures the highest mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) viability for fat transfers.

Traditional suction-assisted liposuction (SAL), (https://www.realself.com/surgical/liposuction), requires manual manipulation of the cannula, which can be time-consuming. Power Assisted Liposuction (PAL) is a faster, more efficient option that lowers physical demands on surgeons and decreases the amount of time patients need to be under anesthesia.

Power Assisted Liposuction (PAL) is adaptable and can be used independently to extract fat cells or in combination with advanced technologies such as VASER (https://www.realself.com/surgical/vaser-liposuction) (ultrasound), Smartlipo (https://www.realself.com/surgical/smart-lipo) (laser heat), or Renuvion (radiofrequency with helium plasma). These methods liquefy fat for easier removal, minimize tissue damage, and gently contract the skin for better shaping results.

PAL, similar to other liposuction methods, is effective across multiple body areas, such as the abs, love handles, back, bra rolls, upper arms, inner and outer thighs, knees, ankles, and beneath the chin.

Are You a Candidate For Treatment?

Liposuction is not a method for significant weight loss (https://www.realself.com/concerns/major-weight-loss), so the best candidates are individuals within 30% of their ideal weight, with localized fat that diet and exercise can’t eliminate. Good skin elasticity is also crucial, as skin that is loose or has stretch marks may not bounce back after the procedure.

Benefits of Power Assisted Liposuction

• Removes persistent fat deposits to create a more defined and sculpted appearance.
• Achieves efficient fat removal in multiple body areas.
• Preserves fat tissue for use in fat grafting or transfer applications.
• Effectively removes fat with minimal impact on surrounding areas.
• Complements plastic surgery by addressing unwanted fat.
• Offers lasting weight loss results that maintain body shape over time.
• Targets fat areas that remain despite consistent diet and exercise efforts.
• Smoothly eliminates excess fat for a more refined body shape.

Following Power Assisted Liposuction in Chandler, recovery is typically smoother compared to traditional techniques due to the precision of the oscillating cannula. Some bruising and swelling are expected as your body heals. To help manage swelling and improve healing, compression garments are usually advised.

In the days immediately following Power Assisted Liposuction, mild discomfort is expected, but most patients can return to light activities within a few days. Full recovery and the best results may take a few weeks, depending on the extent of the procedure and the areas treated. Because PAL causes less trauma to surrounding tissues, the recovery is typically quicker than with traditional liposuction. It's important to maintain a healthy lifestyle after the procedure to achieve and sustain long-term results.
