The vibrating cannula produces a tickling sensation, thereby greatly reducing any discomfort during this revolutionary, minimally invasive fat removal treatment. In fact, the vibrating cannula was specifically designed to act as a pain blocker by activating nerves that do not transmit pain signals. We think that while patients can do the procedure under local anesthesia alone, frequently this is more \u201cparticipation\u201d than most patients want to experience. The vast majority of patients still choose general anesthesia<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Areas of the Body Does PAL Treat?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>PAL can be used to reduce unwanted fat cells from essentially any part of the body. The device features customized cannulas that are used in specific areas for the best results. Some of the most popular body areas treated with PAL include the face, chin, back, ankles, knees, stomach, buttocks, thighs, waist, and arms. PAL can also be used as a touch-up treatment after traditional <a href=\"https:\/\/ghsurgery.com\/staging\/procedures\/body\/liposuction\/\">liposuction<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/ghsurgery.com\/staging\/procedures\/body\/tummy-tuck\/\">tummy tuck surgery<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button grp-article__block-btn--image-attached\">\n<a class=\"wp-block-button__link no-border-radius\" href=\"https:\/\/ghsurgery.com\/staging\/procedures\/body\/liposuction\/\">Liposuction<\/a>\n<a class=\"wp-block-button__link no-border-radius\" href=\"https:\/\/ghsurgery.com\/staging\/procedures\/body\/tummy-tuck\/\">Tummy Tuck<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"clearfix\"><\/div>\n<br>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Power-Assisted Liposuction Recovery and Results<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>PAL requires mild to moderate recovery. Although daily activities can be resumed after the procedure, compression garments are recommended for up to three weeks to facilitate skin retraction and optimal results. Mild swelling is common around the incisions, which heal quickly. Postoperative results continue to improve for up to three to six months. PAL permanently removes fat cells, allowing patients to keep their new, slim, and more attractive figure for good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PAL Complications<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>PAL complications are rare and treatable. A small percentage of PAL patients may experience poor skin retraction or uneven fat redistribution after the procedure, both of which generally can be corrected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Am I a Candidate for Power-Assisted Liposuction?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>PAL is not a weight loss procedure and is best suited for patients looking to improve their figure by losing a few inches of fat from body areas resistant to exercise and diet.
