Cool Lipo: Minimizing Liposuction Side Effects
With traditional liposuction, side effects may be numerous; however, with the innovative Cool Lipo procedure, they are minimal. Some Cool Lipo liposuction side effects include:
Bruising
Bruising may occur after the Cool Lipo procedure because of the nature of the Cool Lipo wand. There is a gentle back-and-forth motion that occurs in order for the laser to liquefy the fat and the wand to suction it out of the body.Swelling
Swelling is a likely liposuction side effect in the treated area. This is normal and may be visible for several weeks. It is generally no longer noticeable after about two weeks, but it varies with each patient.Discomfort
Because the Cool Lipo procedure is a minor surgical procedure, there will be some discomfort and possibly pain during recovery. This is normal and should not be the cause of worry. This minor liposuction side effect can easily be treated by taking a mild painkiller.
