What is VASER Lipo, and how does it work?

VASER Lipo is an advanced body contouring procedure that removes unwanted body fat on several body areas. VASER Lipo is less invasive than traditional liposuction. Its unique technology uses ultrasound waves for custom body contouring. The difference is its ability to remove targeted fat while preserving vital tissues such as nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. VASER technology produces custom-contoured results and a faster healing time.

What are the Benefits of VASER Lipo?

  • Gentler on the body resulting in less bruising and faster recovery times
  • Only a local anesthesia is needed allowing you to be awake during the procedure
  • Creates smoother, more natural results
  • Less overall discomfort during the procedure
  • More precise contouring
  • Larger amounts of fat can be removed

How Does It Differ From Traditional Liposuction?

The main difference between our Palo Alto VASER Lipo treatment and traditional liposuction is how the fat extraction is accomplished. Traditional liposuction uses a cannula and aspirator to remove fat cells. The process involves moving the cannula back and forth to dislodge fat cells. VASER Lipo uses ultrasonic waves to release the fat, dislodging it from the tissue, leading to less trauma to the healthy surrounding tissues.

What Is Recovery Like After Treatment?

The number of areas you are treating will determine the length of time you’ll need for recovery. VASER Lipo is a minimally invasive procedure, requiring about a week to recover. If your job requires a lot of movement or is physically demanding, you might need more time.

Will Weight Gain Affect My Results?

Once you have fat removed, it is gone. Assuming you live a healthy lifestyle with a proper diet and exercise routine, your recontoured shape will continue. But life happens, and should you gain a significant amount of weight, less will develop in the area treated.
