What is VASER Liposuction?

VASER liposuction is a minimally invasive liposuction technique that utilizes ultrasound waves to liquefy fat deposits before gently suctioning them out.

Compared to traditional liposuction, which relies on a sharp cannula to break up fat, VASER lipo offers several advantages. VASER technology allows for more precise targeting of fat cells, minimizing damage to surrounding tissues and blood vessels. A tumescent solution is injected into the target area to loosen the targeted fat cells from the surrounding tissue before they are suctioned out. This precision leads to smoother results with less risk of uneven contours. Additionally, the gentle nature of VASER liposuction often results in less bleeding and bruising and can lead to faster recovery times for patients.

  • Boost your confidence: Feel more comfortable and confident in your clothes with a body shape you love. The results can be life-changing for patients.

Benefits by Body Area:

  • Abdomen: Achieve a flatter, more toned stomach and eliminate stubborn belly fat.
  • Flanks: Reduce love handles and create a smoother waistline.
  • Thighs: Sculpt and define your thighs for a more toned appearance.
  • Arms: Eliminate excess arm fat for a more sculpted and youthful look.

VASER Liposuction Candidates

VASER liposuction is an ideal procedure for individuals who are close to their ideal weight but struggle with stubborn pockets of fat that diet and exercise haven't been able to eliminate. To be a good candidate for VASER liposuction, you should be in good overall health and have realistic expectations for the procedure. Dr. Nicholas Jones will be able to assess your individual suitability during your consultation.

VASER liposuction may not be suitable for everyone. It's generally not recommended for individuals with certain health conditions, such as uncontrolled diabetes or severe cardiovascular disease. During your consultation, Dr. Nicholas Jones will discuss your medical history to determine if VASER liposuction is right for you.

Consultation and Preparation

During your consultation with Dr. Nicholas Jones, you’ll discuss your desired aesthetic goals, medical history, medications, and expectations for VASER liposuction.

Dr. Jones will examine you, explain the procedure in detail, answer your questions, and outline any potential risks. VASER liposuction does not require general anesthesia; instead, it uses a tumescent solution with an anesthetic for numbing the area. To prepare, be ready to discuss your goals and gather any relevant medical records. Dr. Jones may also provide specific instructions such as avoiding certain medications or supplements beforehand.

Procedure

VASER liposuction is typically performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia with sedation.

Local anesthesia numbs the treatment area, while sedation helps you relax during the procedure.

Dr. Jones will insert a thin probe (cannula) into the targeted area. The probe emits ultrasound waves that gently liquefy fat cells in the fatty tissue layer. Once liquefied, the fat is easily suctioned out using another specialized cannula. The length of the procedure depends on the number of areas treated but typically ranges from one to three hours.

Results, Recovery,and Aftercare

Following VASER liposuction, you'll start to see initial improvements within a few weeks, with continued refinement over the following months as swelling subsides. Most patients experience minimal discomfort and can return to light activities within a few days. Dr. Jones will provide specific aftercare instructions to optimize healing and maintain your results:

  • Downtime: Plan for a few days of rest following the procedure to allow your body to begin healing. Depending on your job demands, you may be able to return to work within a week.
  • Compression garment: Wearing a compression garment for several weeks following surgery helps reduce swelling and promote healing by applying gentle pressure to the treated areas.
  • Activity restrictions: Avoid strenuous exercise for a designated timeframe determined by Dr. Jones. This allows your body to heal properly and minimizes the risk of complications. Light activities like walking are encouraged to promote circulation.
  • Healthy lifestyle: Maintaining a balanced diet and regular exercise routine is crucial for long-term results. Dr. Jones can advise you on creating a personalized plan to support your goals. By avoiding unhealthy habits and maintaining a healthy weight, you can help prevent fat from accumulating in the treated areas again.
  • Incision care: You'll receive instructions on keeping the tiny incisions clean and dry to minimize scarring. This may involve gentle cleaning and applying prescribed ointments.
  • Scarring: VASER liposuction uses very small incisions that typically fade into faint scars over time. Following proper incision care can further minimize their visibility.

Maintaining Long-Term Results:

VASER liposuction offers long-lasting body contouring, but maintaining a healthy lifestyle is key. Here's what you can do:

  • Diet: Eat a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains while limiting processed foods and sugary drinks.
  • Exercise: Regular physical activity is important for maintaining a healthy weight and muscle tone. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise most days of the week.
  • Weight management: Maintaining a healthy weight through diet and exercise is essential for preserving your VASER liposuction results.

By following Dr. Jones' aftercare instructions and prioritizing a healthy lifestyle, you can enjoy the sculpted results of VASER liposuction for years to come.
