The process of Vaser liposuction involves

• A saline solution mixed with general anesthesia is injected in the specific area of the patient
• Vaser liposuction involves ultrasound high frequency to break the fat cells.
• A small probe that emits high-frequency sound energy is used to break the fat tissues with very minimal damage to the surrounding tissue.
• Uses ultrasonic waves to burn fat
• The vibration loosens the fat cells, and disintegrates the fat issues and ultimately emulsifies the liquid that was injected into the body.
• Once the emulsification is in the process a cannula is used to remove the liquid and fat cells.
• A portion of the local anesthesia remains in the tissue, which decreases the post-procedural pain.

Yes

VASER liposuction is any day better than the traditional liposuction because the ultrasound appears to be more highly selective in targeting and liquefying the fat, minimizing risks of injury to the blood vessels and nerves.
