Experts at “Herzliya Medical Center” provide full information about the kinds of surgical intervention practiced in hospital for liposuction, among which should be noted:

• The classic or “dry” method of removing fat tissue, which means that through small skin incisions a tube is introduced and a special catheter is connected to a machine that creates negative pressure (vacuum). Adipose tissue under vacuum is sucked from the subcutaneous layer
• Liposuction with a preliminary injection of local anesthetic drugs and narrowing the blood vessels to prevent bleeding during the procedure
• Tumescent liposuction is by far the most common procedure. The method is less painful and has a quicker recovery time.

The method consists of a preliminary introduction of a special solution into the subcutaneous tissue, softening the adipose tissue.
