Step Out from Your Shadow

Youthful appearance is often characterized by taut-looking skin and proportional body dimensions. However, when diet, exercise and/or prescription medications do not adequately control our shape, liposuction is another option. Now available in Edmonton with an affordable cost, Dr. Sapijaszko is the first and only physician in Alberta trained to perform advanced form of liposuctions.

Popular Procedure

Liposuction is a very popular procedure. Its safety has improved tremendously in recent years, as more developed liposuction methods have become available. Liposuction is designed to remove unwanted localized deposits of fat cells, that are unresponsive to exercise and/or a good diet.

Laser Lipo

Contemporary liposuction is based on using diluted local anaesthesia (tumescent anaesthesia) to facilitate fat removal with low risk of bleeding or other complications. Although fat cells can be removed successfully, skin and tissue contraction is unpredictable. One solution for this was the introduction of laser liposuction technologies.

Body Contouring

Although weight loss may occur, it is not designed for that specific purpose, but rather for body shaping and contouring. Liposuction is often performed under local anaesthesia which allows patients to move or even stand up during the procedure. This results in more uniform and symmetrical body contouring.

Results

The objective of the lasers was to heat the fat and skin cells to promote tissue contraction. The challenge is laser fibers are very small, allowing only small areas of tissue to be heated at given time. This results in uneven skin temperature distribution and does not stimulate optimal skin tightening
