UK Liposuction Alternative Blog

The truth is liposuction can kill and does kill in some instances.  The facts are in and 25% of all liposuction procedures have complications and 7% of those complications are major.

Recently Kathy Griffin, comic, admitted in her new book, “A Memoir According to Kathy Griffin,” that she almost died from liposuction complications.  Kanye West’s mother died in 2007 from complications associated with liposuction and heart disease.  The list goes on to include many celebrities and well known personalities who believed in the new hype that liposuction is now safe.

Although liposuction is safer than it was years ago, it still can be very dangerous.  It is imperative to not look for the cheapest clinic, but to search for the safest clinic with the best track record.  Hiring a more expensive physician, who has a long track record of success, just may save your life.  In reality, liposuction and liposuction alternatives may still be invasive cosmetic surgeries and they are not entirely risk-free. Every surgical procedure involves risks, and being of a cosmetic nature does not exempt liposuction from those risks.

The dangers of liposuction span a broad spectrum, from allergic reactions to internal organ and tissue damage. Nearly every one of these examples lists death as a potential effect due to the complication referred to. On average, one in five hundred liposuction patients will die from complications related to their cosmetic surgery. Here are some examples of what causes these deaths.

• Allergic reaction. Before undergoing this invasive procedure, have a few allergy test done to be sure that the medicines they are going to be using will not cause an allergic reaction with you.  Never trust you life to the word of a person you just met, take the time to investigate thoroughly every claim being made. There’s no way to know if you may suffer an allergic reaction until you have been administered a particular substance for the first time. Unfortunately, sometimes the first time is too late. If a severe reaction occurs, it could cause swelling of the air ways or even cardiac arrest.
• Bacterial infection. Many bacteria infections come from unsanitary methods being used at the clinic or doctor’s office.  Many deaths come from unknown bacteria that do not respond to antibiotics and by the time the staph infection is caught it is too late.  Bacteria infections can spread rapidly without any signs.
• Perforation damage. As with any procedure, mistakes are possible.  There are slight dangers involving perforation of other major organs.  Although it is a slight danger, the danger is present.  If you have ever seen a video of how quickly the cannula suction tube is used to remove the fat, then you could understand the possibility.  There is a large amount of blood lost with much bruising.  It is an invasive procedure.  When there is perforation to organs, a far more dangerous second or third surgery must be performed.

Yes, liposuction has become safer with  new technology over the years, but do you really want to take a chance and maybe be one of those that have major complications.  The risk is just not worth it and the best way to avoid putting yourself in harm’s way is to just say NO Liposuction or any other invasive procedure.
