What is Liposuction?

Vaser liposuction, also called LipoSelection, is an alternate technology to traditional liposuction. Vaser liposuction is a process by which fatty deposits are removed from beneath the skin to improve the aesthetics of a particular body part. Optimally, patients who are treated by Vaser liposuction are in good physical condition and are looking for contouring or body sculpturing as opposed to using liposuction as a way to lose weight. This technology uses sound waves to gently loosen fat and pave the way towards liposuction and smooth contouring of the body.

Liposuction is defined as the removal of fat from deposits beneath the skin using a hollow stainless steel tube (known as a cannula) with the assistance of a powerful vacuum. Liposuction can be accomplished either with the use of general anaesthesia, or with heavy IV sedation, or totally by local anaesthesia.

In the case of vaser liposuction, tumescent liquid, or a saline solution mixed with anaesthetics, is injected into the body area being treated. Instead of using a cannula and manual movement to break down the fat tissue, vaser liposuction uses ultrasound high frequency vibration to break fat cells apart.

The cosmetic surgeon uses Vaser ultrasonic probes, inserted into the fatty tissue to gently break the fat cells down. The vibration gently disengages and loosens the fat cells and ultimately emulsifies the tumescent fluid that has been infused into the body area. Once the emulsification is in process, a small cannula is used to remove the liquid and the fat cells. This process is considered gentler that the more traditional liposuction techniques and ultimately offers your cosmetic surgeon a great deal of control and you get the smooth, contoured look for which you are looking. Additionally, vaser liposuction is specifically designed to loosen fat but to protect and preserve other tissues and by using the saline solution there is typically less bleeding and bruising. Areas on the body that are especially well suited to vaser liposuction include the thighs, knees, abdomen, love handles, arms, chest, chin and neck.
