Vaser Lipo - The Leading Liposuction Treatment

If you are thinking of having liposuction then you may need to think again. Now we aren’t saying don’t have any form of liposuction, but you should be having the BEST type of lipo available, and using that as a basis standard liposuction really doesn’t cut it anymore.

So what are the alternatives and wants so good about them? Well the best methods available today are Advanced SmartLipo or even better Vaser LipoSelection.

So what is the difference between these treatments and normal lipo? Well standard liposuction is a time consuming and quite painful process, not especially painful during, but the bruising and recovery time after can be very uncomfortable and arduous.

Now Advanced SmartLipo is an improvement on Smart Lipo (which in turn was an improvement on liposuction) and uses laser technology to deliver energy that melts away the body’s fat cells and unlike previous lipo procedures, the meted fat is vacuumed (or aspirated) away. Recovery time is much shorter, as is any bruising and it is a non-surgical procedure, unlike standard liposuction which requires time in hospital.

However Advanced SmartLipo still has a few downsides, mainly that it is only useful for removing small areas of fat, around 500mls, or the size of a fist and the other issue is patient selection; the ideal patient should be slim and toned with localized areas of stubborn fat, with a Body Mass Index of roughly 25.

Now this doesn’t mean that Advanced Smart Lipo isn’t a very good form of liposuction - it is good, very good, but only for those in that demographic (in which case it is one of the best treatments you can choose).

So what to do if you don’t fit that bill? Well that’s Where Vaser LipoSelection, or Vaser Lipo, comes into play.

Vaser Lipo is a new technology which, like Advanced Smart Lipo, is performed under local anaesthetic and uses ultrasound energy to emulsify and breakdown the fat cells, which again is followed by gentle aspiration of this liquefied fat.

The Vaser Lipo procedure can remove various volumes of fat, from small amounts to much larger measurements. Under local anaesthetic and day case surgery up to 2 litres of fat can be removed, this is well within, Vaser Lipo’s capability.

Many leading cosmetic clinics are already starting to offer this treatment and it is set to become the top tiered standard in walk-in/walk-out liposuction treatments allowing the removal of larger volumes of fat compared with other technologies and treatments and gives the ability to enhance and reshape your curves.
