What To Expect From a Vaser Lipo Procedure - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Deciding to have Vaser Lipo is not something that's taken lightly by most people, because after all, it's a big decision. The Vaser Lipo procedure can be used on most parts of the body, from small places like the chin or larger areas, such as the back and the abdomen. VASER stands for Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance, and it uses ultrasound technology to break down fat cells.

Vaser Lipo is used on body areas such as:

Abdomen.
Hips.

Chin.
Arms.
Inner thighs.
Outer thighs.
Buttocks.
Embarrassing male breasts (Man boobs).
Love handles / Flanks.

Chin - before and after

During a free consultation at Selston Cosmetic Clinic with Dr. Bassi, you can discuss the area that you want treated, and he will give you all the details of what the procedure involves, what results you can expect afterwards and what post-operative care you will need.  He will answer all the questions you have, and if you decide that Vaser treatment is for you, you can book an appointment for your procedure.

On the day of the procedure, over the counter painkillers can be taken beforehand if needed, and if it's a big area being treated or your pain threshold is low, maybe something stronger can be taken - this can be discussed with Dr. Bassi during the initial consultation.

Once the patient is on the bed and covered in sterile sheets, the procedure begins. The treatment area is injected with a saline and local anaesthetic solution, which numbs the site and shrinks the blood vessels which will minimise any blood loss and will reduce the risk of bruising. The fluid injected will make the area expand in volume temporarily, making it easier to break up fatty tissue with the Vaser Lipo's ultrasound energy.

Dr. Bassi will make a couple of small cuts between the skin and the muscle layer and will then insert a small thin probe. The ultrasound transmits waves of high frequency through this probe and this loosens and liquefies the fat cells on contact, without harming the surrounding connective tissues, vessels, and nerves. A gentle suction process then removes the liquefied fat. After this, Dr. Bassi also uses a probe which tightens the skin. Results will be immediate and once the swelling and bruising has subsided, you will get a clear indication of your new contours. There will then be a gradual and continual improvement and at about six months you will be able to see your final shape.

Afterwards, there will be some leakage from the small incisions, as some of the saline fluid will still be in the body after the procedure, and although this will eventually be eliminated by the Lymphatic System, we will show you how to massage the area to eliminate the liquid.

After Vaser Lipo, MLD (Manual Lymphatic Drainage) massage helps to unblock and drain damaged areas, preventing fluid becoming trapped. The size of the area treated will dictate how many sessions you will need. Selston Cosmetic Clinic has now performed over 1500 cosmetic procedures and a considerable number of these clients have had their post op care with our clinic. Post op care involves ultrasound therapy, MLD massage/deep tissue massage. Treatment area's that are small can be massaged by the patient themselves at home.

Directly after Vaser treatment and during post-operative recovery, the patient has to wear a compression garment, which promotes faster healing. This garment is a tight-fitting fabric, rather like spanx, and is worn over the treated area, which helps reduce the swelling of the surrounding area. This compression garment is worn for 4-6 weeks (the doctor will recommend a time frame) and this will help the skin contract and achieve proper contours. Although wearing the compression garment can feel uncomfortable, it will make sure that your Vaser Lipo results are the best possible.

It's important to have realistic expectations about the results you'll get from Vaser and what you would like to achieve. Dr Bassi has vast experience in Vaser Lipo, and he has continuously performed this procedure many hundreds of times since it's arrival to the UK in 2008. If you are fit and well within or close to your BMI, have skin that is still elastic, then you will reap the rewards from Vaser Lipo.
