Liposuction, a surgical procedure that removes excess fat from the body's parts, is now used mainly in obese people. According to the American Society for cosmetic and plastic surgery (ASAPS), the number of liposuction operations increased by more than 16% in 2016 compared with 2015.
Dr. ASAPS, President of Jack Fisher, said the increase in liposuction surgery could be attributed to the emergence of innovative technologies such as 3D printing, which have been successful in reducing the risk of liposuction. "Technological advances, smaller surgeries are making these new looking" surgeries "more attractive.". More and more people are starting to invest themselves again. "Dr. Fisher says.
BioSculpture Technology is one of several companies that are currently trying to use 3D printing technology, and the company uses the new technology in order to make patients safer and more effective bariatric surgery. For most surgery, liposuction surgery time, the process and the overall efficiency depends heavily on the quality and ability of surgical instruments. If the surgeon provides specially customized and designed medical equipment, the operation time will be reduced and the risk of operation will be greatly reduced.
The use of 3D printing technology and 3D imaging technology, BioSculpture Technology CEO Robert Cucin, is trying to liposuction physicians make appropriate medical equipment.
Dr. Cucin said, most manufacturers and surgical equipment developers in the development of medical instruments, and did not notice how important human organs precision, because of the internal and external human body organs are quite fine, if the operation of medical equipment can be the perfect adaptation of human body organs, so can to some extent reduce the risk of liposuction surgery.
Though many attempts, also experienced numerous mistakes, Dr. Cucin's team still unremittingly, still trying to optimize the development process and the operation of liposuction medical equipment. Dr. Cucin's goal is to provide customized surgical instruments for each operation phase.
Dr Cucin explained: "many doctors have worked hard to safely extract fat, but over the years they have had little success.". Our goal is to enable 3D printing to improve the safety of surgery." "This particular 3D print device allows us to place it in an extremely small incision that removes fat from the stomach and removes fat hidden under the muscles," he says. You know, in the past, if you want to remove these parts of fat, you can only cut off. So, in general, we're taking fat out safely in an unprecedented way of innovation, bringing people closer to what they want to be."
The ultimate goal of all liposuction operations is to minimize injury to the patient's body and internal structure and safely extract excessive amounts of fat deposits. Therefore, after careful analysis of liposuction, as a target for each muscle, tissue, and body part of the structure, the company is fully guaranteed to extract fat without cutting. Dr Cucin points out that the combination of 3D printing, 3D imaging, and other revolutionary technologies will enable BioSculpture technology and other companies to develop safer devices for patients.
Bariatric surgery, however, has an incredible risk, and the patient will probably have many unexpected complications after the recovery process. NHS is a publicly funded national health care system in the United Kingdom. It points to some common complications of infection, thrombosis, internal bleeding, gastric banding, food intolerance, gallstones, and so on.
Complications such as food intolerance are more psychological than physical. But, BioSculpture says, 3D imaging aids can prevent internal bleeding, infection, and gallstones (in about 20% of people).
Almost every patient had symptoms such as loose skin and gallstones. Skin diseases are usually not easy to treat. Once the disease develops, it is usually a permanent disease, because the space previously filled with excess fat can not be recombined. In most cases, skin complications are mostly caused by an imbalance of fat aspiration.
However, through the 3D printing structure, researchers can predict by mathematical calculation how much excess skin will be produced after extracting a certain amount of fat deposits.
Using 3D printing technology related medical equipment, so that surgeons will be able to patients for safer, more effective liposuction surgery, so beautiful "zero" risk.
