Vaser Hi Def Liposuction

Vaser Liposuction vs. Vaser High Definition Liposuction

Both Vaser Liposuction and Vaser High Definition Liposuction use ultrasound technology to break down fat deposits, making them easier to remove via a cannula. These surgical cosmetic procedures are designed to target areas of fat that may not respond to other methods, like diet and exercise.

• Vaser Liposuction: Focuses on removing fat deposits from specific areas of the body to address areas that are difficult to target through diet and exercise.
• Vaser High Definition Liposuction: Goes a step further by targeting fat layers above and around muscle groups to highlight the appearance of muscle that already exist. This method is typically suited for individuals with a strong underlying muscle structure and good skin quality.

How does a Vaser Liposuction procedure work?

Vaser Liposuction uses advanced ultrasound technology to break down fat cells, making them easier to remove. The procedure begins with small incisions in the targeted areas, where a tumescent local anaesthetic solution is injected. This solution numbs the area and minimises bleeding.

An ultrasound cannula is then inserted to emit energy waves that break down the fat deposits. Then, the fat is suctioned out using a cannula. The procedure is performed under IV sedation or, for patients requiring deeper sedation, general anaesthesia may be used.

How Long Does a Vaser Hi Def Procedure Take?

The duration of Vaser Hi Def Liposuction surgery depends on the patient’s individual requirements, including the areas being treated, the level of detail required to highlight underlying muscle, and the amount of fat to be removed. Generally, procedures take between one to four hours to complete. Your doctor will provide a more specific estimate during your consultations.

Am I a suitable candidate for Vaser Hi Def Liposuction?

Vaser Hi Def Liposuction is designed for patients who already have some level of visible muscle structure and wish to show its appearance further. It is often selected for areas like the abdomen or chest. On the other hand, Vaser Liposuction is suitable for a broader range of patients seeking to address excess fat in various body areas.

The following indicators are just a guide and do not guarantee suitability for an ultrasound-assisted liposuction procedure – suitability is always determined during a personalised consultation.

• You are in good physical and mental health.
• You have realistic expectations, and understand the final results of muscle definition takes time.
• You have minimal excess fat.
• You have good skin elasticity with a strong core and pre-existing muscle group strength.
• You are willing to follow a healthy diet and exercise habits after surgery to maintain your results.
