What is VASER ® liposuction?

VASER® Lipo or VASER LipoSelection®   Currently it is one of the best technologies for liposuction. It uses third generation ultrasonic energy to selectively break down some of the unwanted fat. It respects blood vessels and nerves. It reduces pain, bleeding and you can get more body shaping. It is performed in the operating room with general or local anesthesia.

What distinguishes the VASER ® Liposuction procedure is its ability to differentiate between the fat to be removed and other important tissues (nerves, blood vessels and connective tissue).

Recovery time: 7 to 10 days to resume activities and 30 days for physical activity.

Type of surgery: outpatient.

Type of anesthesia: general or local.

Does it have advantages over traditional liposuction?

The VASER liposuction ® provides consistent and predictable results, producing less pain and requiring a short recovery time.

VASER® is the best technique currently available for sculpting the body in high definition. Or offers 53% more skin retraction  or tension than suction-assisted liposuction (SAL) or traditional liposuction, 26% less blood loss in low-volume liposuction compared to suction-assisted (SAL), also known as tumescent liposuction with less bruising.

VASER technology can successfully treat all major regions of your body and can even reshape the most delicate areas of your face and neck.

What happens during the procedure with VASER® Liposuction?

First, the area to be treated is infiltrated with a special saline solution that helps constrict the blood vessels (to minimize bleeding and reduce bruising). Next, a grooved titanium probe with its own shape and style transmits sound energy to emulsify the adipose tissue with which it comes in contact, while preserving other important tissues, for greater skin retraction. Finally, the liquefied fat is removed by a gentle suction process, designed to minimize damage to the surrounding tissues.

What results can be expected after surgery?

Every patient who undergoes a VASER ® liposuction will have an important body shaping, much greater than with traditional liposuction since more fat and less blood can be extracted with this technology, obtaining greater skin retraction, avoiding postoperative flaccidity. The result begins to be seen 1 month after surgery and its greatest result at 3 months.
