Vaser, widely known as Vaser Lipo or Ultrasonic lipo, is a minimally invasive and precise type of liposuction, which uses an ultrasound technology targeting selective fatty areas.
This Ultrasound technology can fracture a large quantity of fat can and can help reshaping the treated areas. It is usually a one-off treatment.
Ultrasonic liposuction can be carried out under local anaesthetic, IV sedation or under light general anaesthetic as a day case procedure which results in less downtime and quick recovery.
Treated Areas
Vaser lipo removes fat from all areas of the body using ultrasound energy, precisely targeting the fat tissue. The most commonly treated areas include:
- Chest
- Abdomen
- Hips
- Buttocks
- Calves
- Neck
- Arms
- Inner and outer Thighs
VASER Liposuction procedure should be done in a sterile surgical theatre, under local or general anaesthetic as a day case surgery in most of the cases and depending on the individual, it is usually a one-off treatment.
Vaser Lipo Technology
There are many different terms for the various lipo or Liposuction techniques available at our Harley Street clinic in London, such as Bodyjet Lipo, Tumescent Laser Lipo, SmartLipo, Waterjet Lipo, BodyTite Lipo, Cellulaze and others.
Vaser Lipo is one of the techniques of fat removal, which involves melting fat with an Ultra sound probe which goes under the skin, with aspiration of the broken fat.
It generally takes 2-3 months to see the results and the fat reduction is often minimal to medium and to give the best results, most of the patients require a course of 4-6 sessions of radiofrequency to give skin tightening, hence, the Vaser alone has very limited ability to tighten the skin.
VASER Liposuction uses an ultrasound technology designed to selectively remove fat and help reshape the body. The VASER Lipo procedure is powerful enough to tackle some areas of fat, such as the tummy, flanks or thighs, also, Vaser can be used to remove fat from the neck.
VASER Liposuction procedure should be done in a sterile surgical theater, under local or general anesthetic as a day case surgery in most of the cases and depending on the individual, it is usually a one-off treatment.
Vaser Lipo Results
Vaser Lipo results were limited and have not been satisfactory for a lot of patients and Plastic Surgeons, therefore the Vaser Lipo has become far less popular and a lot of other well-established and proven techniques, which gives instant results, have taken over the Vaser lipo, such as Smartlipo MPX, Smartlipo Triplex, Cellulaze Laser, BodyTite Lipo and TriLipo.
In 2007, the Laser Assisted Liposuction technique was developed which took the original Laser lipolysis technique to a totally different level with outstanding results in medium and large areas of fat reduction with significant skin tightening results.
