Ultrasonic energy has been used for years in a wide array of medical applications – from catching that first glimpse of a baby to cleaning your teeth.
Now the gentle power of ultrasound has evolved to fat removal. VASER® Lipo, or LipoSelection®, uses an ultrasonic technology that is tissue-selective. The ultrasound energy targets unwanted fat, but preserves other surrounding tissues—such as nerves, blood vessels and connective tissue— to promote smooth contours and rapid healing.
Maximum results and minimum downtime are what you can expect with VASER Lipo.
Vaser Lipo FAQ’s
How does Vaser Lipo work?
The Vaser Lipo procedure works between the layer of skin and the layer of muscle by using a small probe which transmits sound energy to break up the fatty tissues. The liquefied fat is then removed through a gentle suction process giving optimal body sculpting and quicker results.
How effective is Vaser Lipo ?
With the Vaser Lipo technique you will see results immediately after the procedure and final results will be seen at around 3 to 6 months after the Vaser treatment has been carried out.
How many Vaser Lipo treatments will I need?
With Vaser Lipo you will only require one treatment per area, the treatment allows for greater volumes of fat to be removed within a shorter procedure time. Therefore it is as suitable and beneficial for larger areas as it is for smaller areas.
How long does a Vaser Lipo treatment take?
The duration of the Vaser Lipo treatment will vary according to the individual patient and size of area to be treated. However, we would normally state an average duration of 2 hours.
Does Vaser Lipo hurt?
Vaser Lipo is carried out under a local anaesthetic proving patients with minimum downtime. After treatment healing is rapid and there is less bruising than with other more traditional methods of fat removal.
Are the results of Vaser Lipo permanent?
Vaser Lipo results can be permanent as long as a sensible diet and lifestyle is maintained, post treatment.
How much does Vaser Lipo cost?
The overall cost of Vaser Lipo depends on the extent of the areas where treatment is required; your surgeon will discuss this with you in detail during your consultation.
