Vaser liposuction, a quick overview
plastic surgeon, plastic surgery, vaser lipo, vaser liposuction
VASER liposuction is a body contouring procedure that uses ultrasound energy to break down fat cells. The fat is then removed with a cannula. VASER liposuction is also known as ultrasound-assisted liposuction or LipoSculpting.
How it works
- A medicated solution is injected into the treatment area. This solution contains lidocaine to reduce pain and epinephrine to constrict blood vessels.
- The VASER device emits ultrasound energy pulses through a probe. The ultrasound energy breaks down the fat cells.
- A cannula is used to remove the fat cells from the body.
Benefits
- Less invasive VASER liposuction is less invasive than traditional liposuction because it causes less trauma to surrounding tissues.
- More precise VASER liposuction allows surgeons to precisely target specific areas.
- Natural-looking results VASER liposuction can achieve natural-looking results in multiple areas of the body.
- Permanent results The results of VASER liposuction are considered permanent because adults cannot grow new fat cells.
Recovery
- You may need to wear a compression garment for several weeks.
- You may need to drink extra fluids to flush the anesthesia from your body.
- You may experience fluid weeping from the treated area for 24 to 48 hours.
