VASER Liposuction: Sculpt your body with precision

he most common method, involving injecting a large amount of medicated solution to make fat removal easier. It takes longer than other techniques.

Similar to the tumescent technique, but uses an amount of liquid equivalent to the fat to be removed. It’s quicker than the tumescent technique.

Utilizes a laser to liquefy fat cells for easier removal. This method is particularly effective for smaller areas like the chin and jaw, and the laser also stimulates collagen production to prevent sagging skin post-surgery.

Uses ultrasound vibrations to liquefy fat, which is then aspirated. This method typically takes longer than the super-wet technique.

Liposuction is not a treatment for obesity, as its main goal is not to reduce a patient’s weight. Instead, it aims to reshape the body by removing fat tissue from specific areas.

This technique helps reshape the body for improved contour and aesthetics. However, to maintain long-lasting results, it’s essential to combine liposuction with regular physical activity and healthy dietary habits. Ultimately, we are what we eat returning to unhealthy habits can reverse the improvements achieved through liposuction.

Liposuction is not recommended for individuals with heart disease, thyroid disorders, high blood pressure, or diabetes.

Although risks are minimized with advanced VASER technology, they may include:

• Infection: As with any surgery, there's a risk of infection if postoperative care is not properly followed.
• Bruising: It's common to experience bruising in the treated area after the procedure.
• Asymmetry: Final results may not be perfectly symmetrical.
• Changes in sensitivity: Temporary numbness or altered sensation around the treated area may occur.
• Fluid buildup (seromas): In some cases, fluid may accumulate and require drainage.
• Skin burns: Rare, but possible if the ultrasound technology is not used correctly.
• Prolonged swelling: In some patients, inflammation may persist longer than expected.

VASER liposuction is not intended for weight loss but for body sculpting. Between 2 and 5 liters of fat may be removed, depending on the case.

Sí, esta técnica es ideal para lograr un contorno corporal más definido. Por ejemplo, en el abdomen, puede realzar los músculos abdominales (six-pack) con mayor precisión.

Yes, this technique is ideal for achieving a more defined body contour. For example, in the abdominal area, it can highlight the six-pack muscles with greater precision.

Yes, wearing compression garments for the first 4–8 weeks is crucial to reduce swelling, improve healing, and help shape the body.

It is not necessary to lose weight before a VASER liposuction procedure, as it’s not designed for weight loss but for removing localized fat and enhancing definition. However, being close to your ideal weight can help produce more defined, long-lasting results. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle before and after the treatment will help maximize the benefits of VASER liposuction.

A slight change in skin sensitivity may occur after VASER liposuction, especially in the treated areas. This may present as temporary numbness, tingling, or hypersensitivity. In most cases, sensation gradually returns over the following weeks or months. Permanent changes in sensitivity are rare. Proper follow-up and open communication with your surgeon are key during recovery.

Yes, the procedure can be applied to nearly any area, with impressive results. Commonly treated areas include:

• Abdomen: One of the most popular zones; VASER technology can define abdominal muscles and eliminate fat.
• Chin and neck: Ideal for removing small, localized fat deposits and refining neck contours.
• Legs: Highly requested for slimming the silhouette from hips to ankles.

There is no non-surgical alternative that removes large amounts of fat like liposuction. However, non-invasive treatments (e.g., cryolipolysis, radiofrequency, laser lipolysis) may help reduce localized fat in mild to moderate cases.

Fat removed via liposuction does not return in the same cells, as the extracted fat cells (adipocytes) do not regenerate. However, new fat can accumulate in other areas if a healthy lifestyle is not maintained.
