 VaserLipo uses the gentle power of ultrasound to remove unwanted fat without damaging surrounding tissues—such as nerves, blood vessels and connective tissue—to promote smooth contours and rapid healing. The trauma that the traditional liposuction inflicts on nerves and blood vessels is the main cause of pain and bruising. The selective action of the VaserLipo system minimizes pain and bruising, and thus decreases downtime. Since the fat is first softened by gentle ultrasonic waves, the end result is smooth and predictable.
In the wide awake technique, very small instruments are used. This permits a more delicate and gentle approach to liposuction. Since the patient is awake during the procedure he or she can stand up so the body can be sculpted more accurately. By mixing wide awake liposuction and the benefits of VaserLipo technology, we are able to combine safety and better results.

How VaserLipo Works
| | | • | VaserLipo technology generates sound energy similar to that used to remove cataracts in the eye | | | • | Small patented probes transmit sound waves that break apart fat on contact | | | • | The emulsified fat is easily removed via suction and massage of the treated area | | | • | Fatty tissue consists primarily of adipose (fat) cells, but also contains other important
tissues | | | • | Sound waves break up fat for removal while leaving nerves, blood vessels and other connective tissues largely undisturbed | | | • | Once emulsified, fat is easily removed with minimal disturbance to important
structural tissue to yield smooth results |
Patient Advantages UltraSmooth. The tissue selectivity of the ultrasound energy used in VaserLipo facilitates even and shapely contouring. UltraSelective. The patented VaserLipo technology is so sensitive and precise that it can be used in even the most delicate areas. UltraSound. The precise, controlled power of ultrasound can now be used to remove unwanted fat deposits with low to minimal pain! | | •
| Predictable results
| | | • | Smooth contouring | | | • | Minimal trauma | | | • | Demonstrated safety | | | •
| Fast recovery | | | • | Minimal pain and bruising |
Common Misconceptions
“VaserLipo will help me lose weight”
Because fat is light (it weighs less than water), removing fat pockets should not be viewed as a weight loss alternative. The goal of VaserLipo is to help you achieve a slimmer silhouette.
“The fat will move to another body part”
Fat removed with VaserLipo is gone and, assuming a healthy lifestyle of proper diet and exercise, will not return or migrate to another area.
“My breasts will get bigger”
Removing fat pockets from your body will not increase your breast size. You may notice, however, that your slimmer silhouette provides your breasts a new emphasis.
“I can eat whatever I want and never get fat in this part”
It is important that you maintain a healthy lifestyle of proper diet and exercise. Your post-operative shape is relatively permanent, so subsequent weight gain or loss will tend to be proportionately distributed over your entire body. Because some body fat is necessary for the sake of your health, fatty tissue that remains after VaserLipo will expand if you gain weight.
Also, please remember that having this procedure will not prevent body changes that are part of the normal aging process.
