Vaser Liposuction

    1.    What is Vaser liposuction?
Vaser liposuction uses ultrasonic energy to liquefy fat tissue, making it easier and less traumatic to remove from the body. It allows for more precise body contouring.
    2.    Who is a good candidate for Vaser liposuction?
Individuals with localized fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise, who are in good general health, are suitable candidates.
    3.    How is Vaser liposuction performed?
Ultrasonic energy is applied under the skin to liquefy fat cells, which are then vacuumed out through thin cannulas.
    4.    What should I do before the procedure?
Avoid smoking, stop taking blood-thinning medications, and follow the pre-procedure instructions provided by your doctor.
    5.    How long does Vaser liposuction take?
The procedure typically takes 1-3 hours, depending on the size of the treatment area.
    6.    Will I feel pain during the procedure?
No, Vaser liposuction is done under local or general anesthesia, so there is no pain during the procedure.
    7.    What is the recovery time after Vaser liposuction?
Initial recovery generally begins within a week, but full healing may take several weeks.
    8.    Will there be visible scars after Vaser liposuction?
The incisions are small and generally not noticeable; they fade over time.
    9.    What are the risks associated with Vaser liposuction?
Risks include infection, bleeding, skin irregularities, and nerve damage, but these are minimal with an experienced surgeon.
    10.    How does Vaser liposuction differ from other liposuction types?
Vaser liposuction uses ultrasonic energy to remove fat more gently and with greater precision, causing less damage to surrounding tissues, which may lead to faster recovery.
    11.    What precautions should I take after the procedure?
Wear compression garments, avoid strenuous activities, and follow the post-procedure care instructions provided by your doctor.
    12.    Are the results of Vaser liposuction permanent?
Yes, the results are permanent as fat cells are removed; however, weight gain can cause remaining fat cells to expand.
    13.    Can Vaser liposuction be combined with other procedures?
Yes, it is often combined with procedures like tummy tuck, thigh lift, or breast surgery.
    14.    Will there be swelling or bruising after the procedure?
Mild swelling and bruising may occur initially but typically subside over time.
    15.    When can I return to work after Vaser liposuction?
Most people can return to daily activities within a week, although full recovery may vary by individual.
