Differences between classic liposuction and Vaser lipo

Naples - Friday 3 Apr 2020 - Dr. Francesco Somma

Liposuction is among the most popular procedures in the field of cosmetic surgery. It allows the body to be reshaped and fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise to be eliminated.

Liposuction techniques have changed considerably over the years and there are various options, including Vaser Lipo. It is very important to understand the diﬀerences between traditional liposuction and the Vaser liposuction procedure to help you eﬀmake an informed choice best suited to your needs

Liposuzione tradizionale

La liposuzione tradizionale è stata introdotta per la prima volta negli anni '70 ma ha guadagnato popolarità nei primi anni ’80. Il chirurgo mediante una cannula cava collegata ad un aspiratore, con continui movimenti in avanti e indietro, rompe gli accumuli di grasso per aspirarli.

Il trattamento può richiedere molto tempo, è fisicamente impegnativo per il chirurgo e i risultati spesso mancano di precisione. La necessità di rompere gli accumuli di grasso favorisce il sanguinamento, la formazione di lividi ed edema con maggiore dolore post operatorio e tempi di recupero più lunghi. Tutto ciò aumenta il rischio di irregolarità della pelle ed inficia il risultato finale.

Vaser liposuction procedure

Over the years, new methods have been introduced in the field of liposuction, among them, Vaser Lipo is undoubtedly the most innovative.

Vaser, stands for Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance and this new liposuction method, thanks to ultrasound technology, liquefies and dissolves fat deposits before their suctioning.

Suctioning in this way is gentler and smoother as, to give a practical example, it is like suctioning melted butter. This results in a less invasive procedure for the patient with several advantages over traditional liposuction.

Vaser liposuction versus traditional liposuction: the advantages

Vaser liposuction in detail:

Improves the precision of fat removal
Increases the amount of fat that can be removed
Allows precise body contouring even in HD
Increases the number of body areas that can be treated
Stimulates collagen production making the skin firmer and tighterù
Reduces recovery time
Reduces common side eﬀects such as bruising and swelling
Reduces the risk of tissue trauma

Best results for the Vaser Liposuction technique

The development of Vaser liposuction allows for less invasive and gentler fat removal.
The procedure can be performed under sedation, reducing the eﬀside effects associated with anesthesia and reducing downtime.

The results of the Vaser liposuction procedure are better than those of traditional liposuction; it is also more precise in reshaping different parts of the body.

All this makes it by far the technique preferred by patients and now the most practiced in the best cosmetic surgery clinics in the world.
