Vaser liposuction is an advanced body contouring method that uses ultrasonic energy to break down and remove stubborn fat accumulated in the body. It is an ideal solution for localized fat deposits that cannot be eliminated through diet and exercise. This personalized procedure not only provides an aesthetic appearance but also improves skin quality.

What is Vaser Liposuction?

Unlike traditional liposuction techniques, Vaser liposuction uses ultrasonic energy to liquefy fat tissues. This results in less tissue trauma and allows the procedure to be performed without damaging the surrounding tissues. After the procedure, the skin becomes tighter, and body contours become clearly defined.

Who is Vaser Liposuction Suitable For?

Eligibility Criteria Description
Age Above 18 years old
Health Condition Individuals in good general health
Skin Elasticity More effective in individuals with high elasticity
Weight Status Individuals who are not obese but have localized fat complaints
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding Should have completed these periods

How Does Vaser Liposuction Work?

Vaser liposuction disrupts the integrity of fat tissue by spreading a photomechanical effect to the targeted area. It bursts the swollen fat cells and turns them into liquid form. The melted fat is then removed from the body using a vacuuming technique.

Using ultrasonic energy to break down fat, Vaser liposuction does not damage the blood vessels or nerves in the treated area. It promotes the repair of subcutaneous tissue and increases connective tissue, resulting in tighter and firmer skin. The effects of Vaser liposuction become more noticeable over the following months.

Vaser Liposuction Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is Vaser Liposuction Permanent?

Vaser liposuction provides permanent results unless there is an exceptional situation (such as significant weight gain). Even if the effect is diminished by excessive weight gain, the body does not return to its pre-liposuction state. In individuals who maintain their form, eat healthily, and stay active, the tightened and contoured appearance in the treated area lasts a lifetime.

Is It Necessary to Use a Drain After Vaser Liposuction?

The use of a drain after Vaser liposuction depends on the size of the treated area. The purpose of the drain is to remove fluid from between the tissues and prevent edema. Drains are typically used in large-area liposuction procedures.

Can Vaser Liposuction Be Applied to the Buttocks?

Yes, Vaser liposuction can be applied to the buttocks to remove excess fat and achieve a firm, well-shaped appearance.

Can You Lose Weight with Vaser Liposuction?

Vaser liposuction is not a weight loss method and is not applied to those who want to lose weight. Its purpose is to eliminate localized fat and shape the treated area. The removal of excess fat results in a tightened, contoured skin structure that gives a slimmer appearance.

What is High-Def Vaser Liposuction?

It is an advanced technique that aims to reveal muscle contours. It is preferred in both men and women to achieve an athletic look in areas such as the abdomen, arms, back, and legs. The removed fat can be reinjected into other areas where needed.

How Much Fat Can Be Removed with Vaser Liposuction?

To avoid health risks, the amount of fat removed should not exceed 10% of the body weight. The exact amount is determined by the doctor based on the patient’s age, fat levels, and health condition. With Vaser liposuction, between 100cc and 8 liters of fat can be removed.

How Many Sizes Can Be Reduced with Vaser Liposuction?

The number of sizes reduced depends on factors like the person’s weight, the amount of fat removed, the area treated, and body structure. On average, patients can expect to drop 2–3 clothing sizes.

Can the Fat Removed with Vaser Liposuction Be Used Again?

Yes, the fat removed with Vaser liposuction can be used via injection in areas such as the breasts, buttocks, and face (cheeks, lips, nose, forehead, etc.). This procedure can be done in combination, offering both aesthetic and time-saving advantages.
