2009-11-03T02:04:00.000-08:00

Knee Replacement or Knee orthroplasty is a surgical procedure performed to relieve the pain and disability from arthritis. The operation is done while you are asleep and without pain (general anesthesia) or with a numbing medication put in your back (spinal or epidural anesthesia).The orthopedic surgeon makes a surgical cut over the affected knee. The kneecap (patella) is moved out of the way, and the ends of the thigh bone (femur) and shin bone (tibia) are cut to fit the prosthesis. The under surface of the knee cap is cut to allow the surgeon to place an artificial piece.

Knee Replacement is one of the major surgeries performed in India. With the help of Medical Tourism there is always a tremendous increase of people traveling to India for Knee Replacement. India is one such place where a patient from abroad can make good savings even if it’s a general health check up or for a super specialty surgery.

Obtaining knee surgery in India has become a trend right now. The major populations coming for a knee treatment are mostly from US, UK, UAE and African countries. This trend has become popular due to no insurance coverage or just that the patients can not afford treatment back home and the waiting period.

For example in UK the typical waiting time for a Knee Replacement would be for ten months, wherein in India it is exactly the other way around. Patients from abroad are given a quick guidance in terms of their treatment, cost, accommodation, pre-consultation, post-surgery etc. This is where Medical Tourism Companies like us come hand in hand.

We take a complete ownership with the patients’ case history, address it to the concerned Hospital with International standards, educate the patient on the facilities available, provide them enough information about the suggested treatment, successfully get them treated and send them back home happily.

We, Treatment Trips being an International Patient Care Facilitator have treated many patients with care & quality especially for knee treatments. We use some the most advanced technologies at our World renowned hospitals to treat the knee conditions. One such procedure is Minimally Invasive Knee Surgery or knee keyhole surgery (knee arthroscopy).

Minimally Invasive Knee Surgery or knee keyhole surgery (knee arthroscopy) is done through smaller incision of about 4- to 6-inch with new approaches like quadriceps or quads sparing, mid-vastus and sub-vastus.

Cosmetic Surgery is most famous among women all over the world. Women of all ages prefer to look good with healthy skin and with a good physic. Be it a female super model or ordinary women, all are very conscious about the way they look and their figure project. Right from 1950’s till date slim and sleek figures among women are fancied rather being overweight.

Aging is a most cautious fact among women who are very conscious about their looks. Many of them follow strict diet and do regular exercise to be fit and to look good. But a women’s life cycle is as such that she undergoes continuous changes right from the puberty until she attains menopause. During these stages women generally tend to become overweight, accumulate unwanted fatty tissues or skin floppiness, especially after pregnancy which cannot be eliminated or reduced by normal exercise or by diet.

On the other hand women who are obese are also victims of being overweight. It is very common to see them working out in gym, shedding sweats to become slim. But new methodology and modern techniques have evolved enabling women to loose weight easily without exercise or dieting.

It is still possible to get the desired look without dieting and much exercise. Liposuction is one such procedure that has made many women to attain their desired look and beauty. The unwanted bulges and humps are removed form the body that does not respond to exercise and diet, enabling to achieve an overall stunning look.

Liposuction is appreciated by most of the women as it is a very quick procedure that uses minimum incision in the fatty areas and suctions out the fat very easily without much scarring and blood loss. The recovery period is very minimal and it is carried as an outpatient procedure. Liposuction in women are mostly carried in abdomen, hips, buttocks, inner and outer thighs, and double chin. The surgery is performed for about 1- 2 hours with general anaesthetic or local anaesthetic often taken as a day case.

After the surgery it is very important to wear the compression garment for about 3- 4 weeks minimum in order to avoid swelling in the operated parts. After the surgery a person can very soon get back to normal activities after 1-2 weeks of recuperation.

At treatment trips we perform different types of liposuction surgeries giving higher success rate and efficient post-operative care. They are

Laser liposuction or smart lipo is an easy, safer method to get rid of the fat deposits and firming loose skin. This is a minimal invasive procedure that extracts the fat from the body with the help of tiny probe insertions that suctions out the fat with less destruction and bruising. Laser liposuction not only removes the excess fat but also tightens the floppy skin too. Now a day Laser Liposuction is done as an outpatient procedure with less scaring and blood loss. The patients can very well get back to their normal activities after the surgery has been performed with zero side effects.

Tumescent Liposuction is more gradual and a controlled method of removing excess fat from the body. This procedure involves in injecting a local anesthetic in the fatty area along with the solution of a medical liquid in the tissue. The tissue in turn becomes numb and swollen

This involves injecting of even larger quantities of medical liquid in the adipose tissue that is under treatment. This liquid would make the area numb and would help in preventing blood loss. Once the liquid is injected then the vacuum tube is inserted.

Ultrasonic liposuction or UAL is a modern technique used to liquefy the fat in hard to treat areas with the help of high pitched ultra sonic waves. UAL enables to remove larger volume of fat in hard areas like chin, knees, neck, ankles, calves, male breast, back etc.. It can be performed along with tumescent liposuction for a precise body contouring. During this procedure the body is injected with tumescent fluid in order to prevent the liquid loss and to remove the fat deposits easily. Tumescent fluid is a medical liquid with a combination of local anesthetic, saline solution and epinephrine. A thin vacuum like tube called cannulas are inserted through small incisions in the areas of fat deposits. Then the UAL or the high pitched ultra sonic waves are transmitted. These cannulas when come in contact with the fat cells, they quickly liquefy and suction out the fat very easily. UAL is an effective method to remove fat in larger volumes without much blood loss, scaring, and easy recovery.

Power Assisted Liposuction (PAL) uses a surgical device that provides a power supply through an electric motor which enables the small cannuals inserted to move in a rapid in-and-out motion. This is very gentle and most effective method to remove the fatty tissues with higher percentage of ligament. This method has proven effective for repeated intervention in tissue remodeling and smooth out the irregularities of the suctioned parts. The surgeon creates smaller incisions for the fat removal resulting in less blood loss, scaring and quick recovery.
