Vacuum suction is a technique commonly used in medical procedures, including liposuction, to remove excess fat or fluids from the body. This method works by creating negative pressure in a specific area, which draws the targeted substance into the suction tube. In liposuction, vacuum suction helps to break down and extract fat cells from beneath the skin, making the procedure less invasive and allowing for more precise fat removal. The suction is controlled to ensure that only the desired amount of fat is removed, leaving surrounding tissues intact.

Apart from liposuction, vacuum suction is also used in other medical procedures such as drainage of excess fluids after surgery, wound care, and in some cosmetic treatments. The suction device can be used to assist in tissue removal, and in certain cases, it can help with the extraction of cells for medical procedures like lipofilling or fat grafting.

In liposuction, the vacuum suction process begins once the fat cells have been loosened by the cannula. The suction device is then used to carefully remove the fat from the body. The process can be adjusted based on the needs of the procedure, whether it involves removing small areas of fat or larger amounts. It provides a less invasive way to contour the body and is a popular method due to its relatively low risk compared to other fat removal techniques.

While vacuum suction is an effective and commonly used technique, it is not without risks. Some of the potential complications include infection, bleeding, and damage to the surrounding tissues. As with any medical procedure, it is important to seek the advice of a qualified healthcare provider to discuss the potential risks and benefits.
