Tickle Lipo™ Now Performed By Dr. Sandra Lee in Upland, CA

Aug. 3, 2010 - PRLog -- Upland, CA – A new liposuction procedure that offers better results, faster procedures and high patient satisfaction is now offered by Dr. Sandra Lee, a leading dermatologist who practices in Upland, CA, a suburb of Los Angeles.

Tickle Lipo™ is named for the slight tickling sensation some patients report during the procedure. It employs a unique motion, referred to as “nutational” which stimulates this tickling sensation during the liposuction process.

Tickle Lipo differs from other methods of tumescent liposuction because the cannula is activated by air pressure, causing a whirling movement, infrasound and thus vibration referred to as “nutational”. This patented technique provides faster infiltration of the tumescent solution – 25% faster than other liposuction technology, shortening the length of the procedure. The nutational vibration of the cannula also interferes with the brain’s pain receptors in the same way that scratching relieves an itch. A selection of specialized cannulas used in the Tickle Lipo technique allows the physician to better maneuver through fibrous or harder to reach areas of fat, enabling precise body contouring.

“Tickle Lipo” allows me to remove more fat in less time and to tighten the skin at the same time,” says Dr. Lee. “My patients remark both during and after the procedure how surprised they are that it is so comfortable and that they can return to their normal activities so quickly.”

Unlike other Liposuction techniques that utilize the heat of laser or ultrasound energy, the surgical cannula used in Tickle Lipo stays cool, eliminating the risk of heat injury to tissue. Tickle Lipo can be used to safely and more effectively remove deeper fat as well as superficial fat and to execute "high-definition" sculpting. The physician can also harvest the patient’s fat which is removed during liposuction for use as a long lasting natural facial filler instead of using synthetic injectables.
