What Is Vaser Liposuction and How Does It Work?
Curious about Vaser liposuction? Vaser is ultrasound-assisted liposuction. Here’s everything you need to know.
Your body is a temple. It doesn’t matter what has happened in the past, there is no better time than now to take control. With some effort and modern technology, you can reach your personal health goals.
Do you have a little extra weight in certain areas that you can’t seem to shed despite exercise? Or perhaps the weight itself is holding you back from working out as hard as you’d like. Maybe you just want to tone up before a wedding or get that Summer body read.
Learn how Vaser liposuction works and why it might be perfect for you.
The Benefits of Vaser Liposuction
People often decide to get liposuctions done for purely aesthetic reasons. However, it doesn’t stop there.
Getting this procedure done might actually change your life. Of course, you can’t expect to go from couch potato to a professional soccer player after a single session. And you’ll have to do your part to keep the weight off.
With that being said, this could truly be the moment in your life when you take control of your health and fitness.
Body Contouring
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. One body type isn’t necessarily more attractive than another. But that doesn’t stop us from having preferences, tastes, and personal goals.
Liposuction can help you slim those problematic areas. The belly, waist, thighs, and upper arms are common places people choose to get liposuction.
Whether you are going for a slender look, curvy, or athletic look, body contouring can help you.
Getting Back on Track
We all know that diet and exercise are fundamental when it comes to health and fitness. There is no question about that.
But sometimes, for whatever reason, we might find it hard to keep a solid routine. Carrying extra weight doesn’t make working out any easier, either.
Whether injuries, children, work, or anything else have kept you away from the gym, liposuction can help you get back on track. Once you see the results, you’ll be motivated to keep working.
Looking Good, Feeling Good
Now that you’re looking and feeling sexier, it’s time to bask in your own glow. Having an improved body image can help you feel more confident and attractive.
Of course, you don’t need validation from anyone to feel beautiful. Just don’t blame us if you spend extra time looking at yourself in mirrors in public or you start acting extra.
Once you get your mojo back, there is no stopping you. The extra confidence can spill over into other facets of your life, such as your work and relationships.
Cardiovascular Health
Most importantly, this could be the beginning of a new lifestyle that adds years to your life and life to your years.
Metabolic syndrome is a disease cluster that includes type II diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and high cholesterol. A sedentary lifestyle and poor diet can lead to any of these conditions. Together, they can be quite difficult to treat and increase your risk of heart attack, kidney disease, stroke, and other conditions.
Getting your bill of health back on track will lead to a better quality of life down the road.
Different Types of Liposuction
For many years, we have been trying, often very unsuccessfully, to surgically remove fat. Then came liposuction, a type of fat removal procedure performed by a plastic surgeon or other certified physicians.
How exactly does liposuction work? Undesired fat (adipose) tissue is aspirated through a small tube.
However, our body fat isn’t really possible to remove this way unless it is treated first. Here are several ways this is done.
Fluid Injection
The first physicians to perform liposuction had a very hard time getting the fat tissue removing fat because of its texture.
In the 1980s, French surgeon, Gérard Illouz, popularized the ‘wet’ technique. Prior to the aspiration, saline fluid with fat degrading enzymes, such as hyaluronidase, partially break down the adipose tissue.
This makes it a little easier to aspirate, lowering the amount of local trauma. The ‘tumescent’ technique, developed by Dr. Klien, builds on these ideas. His work continues to guide surgeons to this day.
Modern Lipo Techniques
Lasers and ultrasound are less invasive options that don’t require the doctor to pump you up with liquid.
Today, we’re taking a closer look at VASER.
Vaser Liposuction
Not really excited at the idea of fluid and enzyme injections? VASER might be right for you.
Instead of chemicals or lasers, VASER liposuction utilizes ultrasound waves. These are the same types of waves that obstetricians use to evaluate the wombs of pregnant women.
If it’s delicate enough for your little kings and queens to be, our love handles can definitely take it.
How Does It Work?
VASER stands for vibration amplification of sound energy at resonance. The surgeon will insert a small instrument that emits amplified sound waves with guided precision.
These waves gently emulsify fat while respecting other tissues, such as nerves, muscles, and blood vessels.
Then, as with other methods, the fat is aspirated through a cannula.
Advantages of Vaser
Vaser lipo is a preferred method for many patients and physicians alike.
This method causes much less bruising and local trauma. The pain and recovery after the procedure will easier to deal with in the vast majority of cases. Usually, you will need a few days of rest, not weeks or months.
Notably, the method is effective at removing fat from fibrous tissue. This makes it popular with men and those with stronger builds.
