The solution also causes the blood vessels to temporarily shrink, greatly reducing blood loss during the procedure, 减少瘀伤, 手术后肿胀和疼痛.
溶液注入后, the surgeon makes a small incision in the skin and inserts a cannula — a small, skinny tube that is connected to a vacuum-like ma下巴e — into the fatty layer. Using 回来 and forth movements, the fat is sucked through the tube into a sterile collection system. An elastic compression garment is then worn to help the skin contract and heal.
