UAL is found to generally decrease post-operative swelling and bruising over traditional liposuction techniques. Some physicians believe UAL allows better control of contour or shape of the body in the areas treated with liposuction and early experience has shown minimal problems with post-operative contour irregularity. It allows relatively large volumes of fat removal per operation with relatively little blood loss and minimal post-operative bruising. UAL is also physically less demanding from a surgical standpoint making the Dr. less fatigued when performing the treatment which will equate to better control of results for the patient.
