Power Assisted Liposuction (PAL) is performed using a special cannula which uses tiny, rapid vibrations to break up fat cells so that they can be suctioned out of the body.
The oscillating movement of the cannula easily mimics, in a strainless and more controlled fashion, the work of a surgeon during traditional suction-assisted lipoplasty. The vibration allows easy penetration of even fibrous fat, while generating no thermal energy, thus no risk of cutaneous burns as compared with ultrasound liposuction
Doctors can remove more fat in a shorter period of time, which leads to enhanced results, a safer procedure, and faster recovery.
