Who is a Candidate for VASER Liposuction?
You may be a good candidate for VASER liposuction if you are healthy and you’re at or near your ideal weight. Liposuction, of any kind, is not a weight-loss tool. It is for spot-treating fat deposits and revealing muscle tone. Because VASER liposuction causes less blood loss than traditional liposuction, it should be considered for patients undergoing large-volume liposuction or liposuction of tight, fibrous areas, such as the back or posterior flanks, where increased blood loss is expected. VASER liposuction is also a great choice for fat grafting. One study found that fat harvested using VASER liposuction had an 85-89% success rate when grafted. VASER liposuction is not recommended for people who smoke or have a history of bleeding conditions.
VASER Liposuction Results
In addition to the precise removal of targeted areas of fat, VASER liposuction results in higher skin retraction, creating smoother results than traditional liposuction. Your results will depend on your individual goals that you will discuss with your surgeon. Your results have the potential to be permanent if you maintain a healthy diet and exercise plan.
VASER Liposuction Recovery
After VASER liposuction, your body may be bruised and swollen in the treated areas. You will be given cotton pads to dress these areas, as they will be releasing fluid for the next 24 to 48 hours. You will need to wear a compression garment for several weeks to control the swelling. After 3 to 6 months, you will be able to see your results more clearly. However, for some people, it may take longer.
