Abstract
A minimally invasive fat cell removal system and method is provided using a numbing component, a laser component, and a NIL component. A cannula and fiber of the laser component are insertable into a body of a patient at a biopsy punch to liquefy a fat cell via a tumescent fluid and/or a laser. A NIL cannula of the NIL component is insertable into the body to remove the fat cell via suction and/or nutation. An anesthetic device of the numbing component may reduce sensation of the body where the cannula is insertable. The fat cell may be harvested and implanted at another location of the body.
Claims20
A system for performing a liposuction procedure without a needle, without a scalpel, and without stitches, the system comprising:
- a biopsy punch configured to create one biopsy punch opening in skin of a patient at a location;
- a tumescent cannula for injecting a tumescent fluid into a body of the patient, wherein the tumescent cannula is insertable into the body of the patient through the one biopsy punch opening;
- a nutational infrasonic liposculpture (NIL) component, the NIL component further comprising a source of nutational motion and a source of suction;
- and
- at least one NIL cannula,
- wherein the NIL component is attached to the at least one NIL cannula and wherein the at least one NIL cannula is insertable into the body of the patient through the one biopsy punch opening,
- wherein the source of suction creates a suction through the at least one NIL cannula when the NIL cannula is inserted into the body through the one biopsy punch opening and performing a nutational movement within the body,
- and wherein each of the tumescent cannula and the at least one NIL cannula pass through the same one biopsy punch opening.
A method, comprising:
- raising, without using a needle, a wheal of numbness on skin of a patient;
- creating one biopsy punch opening in the skin of the patient within the wheal of numbness without using a scalpel;
- spraying a tumescent fluid within a body of the patient via a tumescent cannula that extends through the one biopsy punch opening;
- extracting a fat cell through the same one biopsy punch opening via a nutational infrasonic liposculpture (NIL) cannula, while the NIL cannula is positioned at least partially within the body, extended through the one biopsy punch opening, and performing a nutational movement within the body.
A method, comprising:
- creating one biopsy punch opening in skin of a patient at a location using a biopsy punch;
- injecting a tumescent fluid into a body of the patient through the one biopsy punch opening;
- extracting a fat cell through the one biopsy punch opening via suction through a NIL cannula, while the NIL cannula is inserted into the body through the same one biopsy punch opening and performing a nutational movement within the body;
- implanting the extracted fat cell into the body of the patient at a different location through an opening in the skin of the patient other than the one biopsy punch opening.
