Vaser Liposuction- The First Steps:

If you are thinking about getting Vaser liposuction done, the first step is to meet with a surgeon. This will help to determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure, and you can also get to know your doctor. This can be done during a consultation. There you can discuss the goals and expectations for the surgery as well as the pricing.
The Vaser Liposuction Procedure:

Before you commit to the Vaser liposuction procedure, it is important to familiarize yourself with certain aspects of the surgery. The target area is anaesthetized using tiny incisions. A couple of small cuts are made between the skin and muscle layer and a small thin probe is inserted with sends Vaser ultrasound energy to the targeted areas. These cause the fat cells to vibrate which, in turn, causes them to dissolve as the fat melts to liquid. The liquid is then drained from the body through suction.

During recovery, it is important to follow the doctor’s recommendations to ensure a smooth and successful healing period. It is recommended to use massage to drain the lymphatic system and reduce lumps bumps and swelling. The massaging should be gentle.

It also may be necessary to wear a compression garment to aid healing. This will reduce the risk of unwanted creases and minimize the likelihood of skin sagging. You may need to wear the garment for four to six weeks, depending on what area has been treated.

Vaser Liposuction is one of the wonderful advancements in cosmetic procedures. However, it may not be for everyone. Before committing to the procedure, it’s important to carefully consider all aspects of the surgery including finding the best surgeon, the pricing, the steps that are being performed and the recovery period. That way you can decide on the best path for you when it comes to cosmetic surgery.
