Vaser Liposuction in Manchester

What Is Vaser Liposuction?

Vaser liposuction, also known as VASERlipo, is a modern liposuction procedure using ultrasound technology to break down fat cells in the body with minimum damage to surrounding cells and tissue.

Body fat is melted and removed through a thin tube, using Vaser liposuction techniques to make it easier to remove the fat – especially in dense body parts or areas with large volumes of stubborn fat.

The ultrasound waves emitted by the probe break apart fat cells on contact.

The liquefied fat is then sucked out with a cannula through tiny incisions.

Incisions made on the body are very small, usually around 3mm, which eliminates the need for stitches.

Vaser is commonly used and effective on almost every body part including; ankles, calf muscles, knees, arms (bingo wings), armpits, neck, chin (double chin), thighs (saddle bags), bum, male chest (man boobs), upper back, flanks (aka love handles) and abdomen.

Why Choose Vaser Liposuction?

Vaser Liposuction is a minimally invasive method of removing fat that can be more efficient than traditional liposuction. It is also more selective in the cells it targets whilst leaving surrounding areas untouched.

Fat cells that are removed using this method can also be harvested for fat transfer to other parts of the body.

People are choosing Vaserlipo to get the body shape they’ve always wanted.

It is a precise method used to target specific fatty areas that are particularly stubborn.

Being minimally invasive, Vaserlipo cuts down recovery time and produces results that are visible instantly after undergoing the procedure.

Vaser liposuction is one of the most popular forms of lipo in Manchester and throughout the rest of the UK.

One of the reasons why it has grown in popularity is that it is great for targeting areas of fat that people struggle to get rid of, particularly love handles and bingo wings.

Other reasons more people are choosing Vaserlipo over traditional lipo include:

Faster recovery

The recovery time for this procedure is very quick. Much quicker than traditional methods. Due to the advanced technology and methods used, patients do not require much time off work and are usually back at work within 2 to 3 days.

Less damage to cells

Blood vessels, nerves and tissue are all damaged during the process of traditional liposuction. However, with Vaserlipo, the precise and gentle waves from the probe leave much less of these unharmed in the surrounding area.

Minimally invasive

The method of removing fat does so with minimum impact on your body. Although incisions are required to suck out the fat, stitches are not required because they are so small.

High quantity targeting

Not only can Vaser target multiple areas, it can target very large sections of the body and remove large quantities of fat cells in a single session.

VASER vs Traditional Liposuction vs Lipo 360

Patients often compare VASER liposuction, traditional liposuction and Lipo 360 when researching body contouring options. Although these terms are sometimes used together, they do not all mean exactly the same thing.

Traditional liposuction and VASER liposuction describe different fat-removal techniques, while Lipo 360 usually describes a treatment approach focused around the full midsection, including areas such as the abdomen, waist, flanks and back. The most suitable option depends on your body shape, skin quality, treatment goals, medical history and the areas you would like to improve.

It is important to understand that VASER liposuction is not a weight-loss treatment. It is usually considered for patients who are already close to a stable weight but have localised areas of fat they would like to improve. If loose skin is the main concern, your surgeon may discuss whether another procedure, or a combined approach, may be more suitable.

Honest Complication and Risk Context

All types of liposuction involve surgery, so it is not medically responsible to describe any option as risk-free. A single complication rate cannot be applied to every patient because risk can vary depending on the treatment area, number of areas treated, anaesthetic, medical history, skin quality, smoking status, aftercare and individual healing.

Possible side effects after liposuction can include swelling, bruising, tenderness, numbness, fluid leakage from incision sites and visible scarring. Less common complications may include infection, bleeding, uneven or lumpy results, prolonged numbness, changes in skin colour, blood clots, anaesthetic reactions or the need for further treatment. Your surgeon will explain the risks that are most relevant to your treatment plan and what would happen if a complication occurred.

At Manchester Private Hospital, your consultation is designed to help you understand the differences between traditional liposuction, VASER liposuction and Lipo 360 in a clear and realistic way. The aim is to recommend an approach that is suitable for your body, your expectations and your safety, rather than offering the same treatment plan to every patient.

Vaser Liposuction Procedure

Vaser Liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure that involves sound energy to liquefy fat in the targeted area to eliminate the need for traditional surgery to remove it. The sound energy is transmitted through one or several small probes via small incisions into the skin. The liquefied fat is removed from the body through a suction tube.

A Vaser liposuction procedure is typically performed under local anaesthesia. However, when larger areas are targeted, a doctor may opt for general anaesthesia.

What Areas Of The Body Vaser Liposuction Can Treat?

From the choice of anaesthesia and the recovery time to the cost, there are several factors in a Vaser liposuction procedure that depend upon the area being treated.

The advanced fat-removal procedure can target a wide range of body areas, including:

• Stomach
•  Waistline
•  Arms
•  Upper Back
•  Chest
•  Chin & Neck
•  Hips & Thighs
•  Buttocks

Vaser Liposuction Recovery

While the healing process may differ for everyone depending on how their body responds to the procedure and how quickly it recovers, Vaser liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure, so there’s minimal downtime. Patients often begin to feel normal again in as little as two to three days. However, doctors recommend avoiding strenuous activities and taking plenty of rest for about five to seven days on average.

Fluid weeping from the incisions will occur during the first 24 to 48 hours. You may also experience some pain, tenderness, and/or bruising on the targeted area for the initial few days. Doctors usually prescribe painkillers to help with them. For swelling, your doctor may suggest wearing a compression garment for a few weeks. You will also be told to increase fluid intake to help your body recover quickly.

The healing process for Vaser lipo isn’t long, and you can resume your everyday activities shortly. However, it may take a few months for the results of the surgery to become fully evident.

Complications & Side Effects

Although Vaser liposuction is extremely safe, there are some potential complications of undergoing this procedure. These include:

• Bruising following treatment that can last for up to 2 weeks.
• Pain, which can be controlled with pain-killers.
• Infection is very rare, but should this occur, can be treated with anti-biotics.
• Scars may be visible from the small incisions that are made during treatment, which will fade as they heal over time.
• Burning is very rare but the ultrasonic energy from the probe can cause a burn around the incision.
• Skin discolouration around treatment area, but very rare.
• Bleeding is possible due to the incisions required for sucking out the fat. Medical pads will be provided.

Advantages Of Vaser Liposuction

If you have tried to lose weight in the past, or shift fat from a certain area, you may know how difficult it can be given the time needed to diet and train, while trying to work and live your life.

That is why people choose Vaser liposuction treatments.

Vaser gives people the chance to spot-reduce fat from their body, something that cannot be achieved easily with exercise or diet.

Stubborn fat areas are common on every human, so a chance to eliminate this is appealing, and very possible with Vaser.

• No general anaesthic is required.

• In most cases, patients walk in for their treatment and walk out the same day following Vaser procedures.

It is also worth noting that the technique for Vaser can stimulate collagen production in the body, giving you tighter skin around the treated area.

Results

Vaser liposuction gives instant results following treatment in most cases and results continue to be noticeable in the days that follow. That is why more people in Manchester and nationwide are choosing this high-tech modern fat buster method.

One of the reasons why results are noticeable straight away is the fact that the treatment is minimally invasive and does not affect surrounding tissue or cells. So there is no waiting for areas to heal to see the true effect of your treatment.

Precise targeting of fat cells allows the patient to focus on their chosen area for fat removal then compare the results pre and post surgery.

Not only are the results visible, but patients also feel the effects of the treatment in the hours and days that follow.

You should expect to see the full and true reflection of Vaser treatments within 2-3 weeks.

Vaser liposuction is sometimes combined with other treatments such as Vaser Hi-Def depending on your goals. This is an advanced body sculpting technique that can enhance muscle definition and works well in conjunction with Vaser lipo fat removal.

For patients interested in more detailed muscle definition, you can learn more about VASER Hi-Def liposuction, an advanced body contouring approach designed for suitable patients seeking greater definition around selected muscle groups.

Vaser is also used to tackle cellulite problems. Many women in the North West are not necessarily looking to get rid of huge chunks of fat, but to smooth their bums and legs with cellulite treatments.

Being a non-invasive procedure, Vaser opens up doors to new possibilities to tackling problem cellulite that is common in women of any age and any size.

Body Sculpting

One of the points to note about Vaser liposuction and whether it will be right for you though is if you are already near your desired target weight.

Vaser lipo is not classed as a weight loss solution and patients who are obese will not be suitable. It is more of a procedure to remove fat while sculpting parts of the body.

Although fat distribution throughout the body is down to genetics, some patients have more problem areas than others, such as the upper legs and belly. Whereas others may find them areas are fine, but struggle with their outer edges such as flanks, also known as love handles.
