Microlipo available at the Chiltern Medical Clinic
Nov 2010
Many of
us have stubborn pockets of fat on our bodies that will not
respond to diet or exercise. Whilst surgery is a drastic
option, there are other body shaping methods - carried out
under local anaesthetic - which provide a far safer, more
effective and less daunting choice.
One of
the latest and most advanced of these body shaping
treatments is Microcannular Tumescent Liposuction or ‘Microlipo.’
Dr Gupta is currently the only doctor in Europe to be
trained in this method.
Microlipo
gets its name from the tiny size of the cannulas used to
extract the fat, the smallest of which is just 0.9mm wide.
The
treatment therefore requires next to no recovery time and
leaves no scarring. It is a walk-in, walk-out procedure
meaning patients can leave the clinic immediately
afterwards. Dr Gupta was given advanced training in the US
from the inventor of the method and lipo pioneer, Dr Jeffrey
Klein.
Who is
suitable for Microlipo?
The best
candidates are those who are in good health and have
obvious, localised deposits of fat. Microlipo can remove up
to 3.5 litres or four per cent of a patient’s body weight.
Because
of the small cannulas, it is particularly good for small
areas of fat
