What Is Vaser Liposuction?

Vaser liposuction is a modern, minimally invasive fat removal technique that uses ultrasound technology. It is FDA-approved, virtually painless, and considered a low-trauma method of body sculpting.

This technique has been used worldwide for over 20 years, and in recent years it has gained great popularity in Greece thanks to its safe and highly effective results.

The Vaser technology enables the plastic surgeon to remove unwanted fat with greater precision compared to traditional liposuction methods.

Who Is Vaser Liposuction For?

It is important to note that Vaser liposuction is not a weight-loss method, but a highly effective technique for localized fat reduction. It is not recommended in cases of obesity.

More specifically, Vaser is ideal for:

• Individuals with localized fat: Perfect for removing fat from the thighs, abdomen, flanks, and buttocks, helping define the muscle lines and sculpt the body.
• Healthy individuals: Candidates should be in generally good health, without serious medical conditions that may interfere with recovery.

Although Vaser can significantly improve one’s body contour, it should not replace a healthy diet and regular exercise.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Vaser Liposuction

Advantages

• High precision & effectiveness: Vaser allows for more targeted fat removal, leading to more predictable, sculpted results.
• Minimized complications: Bruising and swelling are minimal, and surrounding tissue is protected. This means less pain and faster recovery.
• No general anesthesia needed: Due to the low pain levels, the procedure can often be done with local anesthesia or light sedation.
• Shorter procedure time: Compared to traditional liposuction, Vaser requires less surgical time.
• Applicable to multiple areas: Vaser can be performed on nearly any part of the body with stubborn fat.

Disadvantages

• Cost: Vaser tends to be more expensive due to the advanced technology involved.
• Specialized training required: The plastic surgeon must have experience and certified training with Vaser to ensure safe and optimal outcomes.
• Not suitable for everyone: It’s not advised for patients with certain medical conditions or for those with unrealistic expectations.

How Is Vaser Liposuction Performed?

The procedure typically lasts between 30 minutes and 2 hours, depending on the size and number of areas treated.

• No general anesthesia is necessary, as the procedure is associated with minimal discomfort.
• Local anesthesia or conscious sedation is usually sufficient.

Step-by-step:

1. The doctor performs pre-operative planning based on the patient’s goals and clinical evaluation.
2. Local anesthetic is injected into the treatment areas.
3. Ultrasound waves are used to liquefy fat cells without damaging surrounding blood vessels.
4. The liquefied fat is gently suctioned out through small cannulas, minimizing trauma to the skin and underlying tissues.

This technique prevents irregularities like “orange peel” skin and offers smooth, even results with natural body contouring.

What Results Can You Expect?

• The results are permanent.
• Patients do not need to stay overnight and can return home the same day.
• A compression garment is worn for a few weeks to aid healing and optimize the final result.

Visible improvements can be seen shortly after the procedure, but the final outcome develops progressively over the next 2 to 3 months.

Vaser liposuction can significantly reshape and smooth problem areas, improve skin texture, and boost self-confidence.

Vaser Liposuction – Cost

The cost depends on several factors, including:

• the number of areas treated,
• the amount of fat to be removed, and
• the condition of the skin.

After your medical assessment, your surgeon will provide you with a personalized quote and detailed explanation of the procedure.
