VASER Liposuction
VASER Liposuction is a cutting-edge procedure designed to sculpt and contour your body with precision and finesse. VASER is a minimally invasive, advanced body contouring technique that uses ultrasound technology to precisely break down and remove unwanted fat deposits from various body areas. Unlike traditional liposuction, VASER is gentler on the body, targeting fat cells while preserving surrounding tissues like nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissues.
The procedure begins with administering a tumescent solution, a special fluid that helps numb the area and tighten blood vessels to minimize bleeding and bruising. Then, a small probe emitting ultrasonic waves is inserted into the targeted area. These ultrasonic waves specifically target fat cells, breaking them apart while leaving other tissues largely undisturbed.
Once the fat cells are emulsified, a small cannula gently draws out the liquefied fat, sculpting and shaping the treated area. The precision of VASER allows for smoother results and quicker recovery compared to traditional liposuction methods.
Which areas of the body can be treated with VASER Liposuction?
VASER is versatile and can treat many body areas, including the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, arms, and back. It’s particularly effective for stubborn fat pockets that may resist diet and exercise.
What is the recovery period like after VASER?
A patient may experience swelling and bruising, but these typically disappear within a few weeks. Many individuals resume their regular activities shortly after treatment, although strenuous exercise may need to be avoided for a few weeks to aid healing. It will take several months for the body to adjust, revealing a more contoured and sculpted appearance.
Who is a suitable candidate for VASER Liposuction?
VASERlipo is an excellent option for individuals looking to refine and contour their body shape without undergoing major surgery. Candidacy can be determined during a consultation with a board-certified physician. A customized treatment plan will be developed for you based on your goals and medical history.
Are the results of VASER liposuction permanent?
There is no regrowth of fat cells after VASER liposuction. In order to prevent weight gain in other areas, a healthy routine with a balanced diet and exercise is essential.
