All about VASER Liposuction

VASER liposuction offers a safe and effective solution for individuals looking to achieve a more sculpted physique and address stubborn areas of fat. Accomplished plastic surgeon Mr Reza Alamouti explains more about the procedure.

Understanding VASER liposuction

Vaser liposuction, also known as VASERlipo, is an advanced form of liposuction that utilises ultrasound technology to target and break down stubborn fat deposits. Unlike traditional liposuction methods that involve manual suction to remove fat, VASER liposuction uses ultrasound energy to selectively liquefy fat cells, making them easier to extract.

The procedure

During a VASER liposuction procedure, small incisions are made in the target areas, and a tumescent solution containing local anaesthetic is infused to minimise discomfort and facilitate fat removal. A small probe emitting ultrasound energy is then inserted through the incisions to target and emulsify fat cells, while preserving surrounding tissues such as blood vessels and nerves.

Once the fat is liquefied, a thin suction cannula is used to gently remove the emulsified fat, sculpting the desired contours. The precision and versatility of VASER liposuction allow for smoother results and reduced trauma to the body compared to traditional liposuction techniques.

Benefits of Vaser liposuction

One of the primary benefits of VASER liposuction is its ability to target specific areas of the body with precision, including the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, arms, and chin. Whether you're looking to sculpt your waistline, refine your silhouette, or address stubborn pockets of fat, VASER liposuction offers customisable solutions to meet your aesthetic goals.

Furthermore, VASER liposuction typically results in less bruising, swelling, and downtime compared to traditional liposuction methods, allowing for a quicker and more comfortable recovery process. Many patients experience noticeable improvements in body contouring and enhanced self-confidence following VASER liposuction.

Considering your options

Before undergoing VASER liposuction, it's essential to consult with a qualified and experienced cosmetic surgeon to discuss your goals, expectations, and any potential risks or complications associated with the procedure. Your surgeon will evaluate your candidacy for VASER liposuction based on factors such as your overall health, skin elasticity, and treatment goals.

Additionally, it's crucial to have realistic expectations about the outcomes of VASER liposuction. While the procedure can effectively reduce localized fat deposits and enhance body contours, it is not a substitute for weight loss or a solution for obesity. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet, is essential for long-term results.
