Vaser-Lipo
A Non-Surgical Fat Reduction and Body Contouring Treatment
As a less-invasive form of liposuction, VASER liposuction involves the use of ultrasound waves to break apart fat cells which are then dispelled through suction after. This method of non-surgical liposuction produces less pain and bruising, as well as a rapid recovery time in comparison to traditional liposuction treatments. These are outpatient treatments which our private London clinics provide with the greatest discretion and care, meaning you will be back on your feet in no time – looking better than ever.
Areas that can be treated with VASER Liposuction
FAQs?
Is non-surgical liposuction safe?
Non-surgical liposuction, such as VASER liposuction, is an incredibly safe procedure in comparison to its medical counterpart as it does not face standard surgical risks such as anaesthesia. They are also minimally invasive treatments with less downtime.
How is VASER Lipo different from traditional liposuction?
Unlike traditional liposuction, which manually breaks up fat with a cannula, VASER liposuction uses ultrasound waves to gently loosen fat before removal. This results in less trauma to surrounding tissues, reduced bruising, and a smoother, more defined result.
Who is a good candidate for VASER Lipo?
Ideal candidates are individuals who:
-
Are close to their ideal weight but struggle with stubborn fat pockets
-
Have good skin elasticity
-
Are in overall good health
-
Have realistic expectations about the results
How long does the procedure take?
The duration varies depending on the number of areas treated, but typically, a VASER liposuction session lasts between 1 to 4 hours.
Is VASER Lipo painful?
VASER liposuction is performed under local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia. Some discomfort, swelling, and bruising may occur post-procedure, but it is generally less painful than traditional liposuction.
What is the recovery time?
Most patients can return to light activities within a few days, but full recovery may take 4 to 6 weeks. Compression garments are recommended for optimal healing and contouring.
Are the results permanent?
Yes, the fat cells removed during the procedure do not regenerate. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is crucial to prevent new fat accumulation in untreated areas.
Are there any risks or side effects?
Like any cosmetic procedure, VASER liposuction carries some risks, including:
-
Swelling and bruising
-
Temporary numbness
-
Minor scarring
-
Uneven contours (rare, and usually correctable)
