The VASER technique uses ultrasound to liquefy fat before aspirating it, allowing for more precise contouring and better respect for tissues.
The Vaser liposuction in Girona is a body cosmetic surgery technique that employs ultrasound to liquefy the fat before suctioning it out. This preliminary step, which differentiates it from traditional liposuction, allows for More precise and defined remodelling, respecting the surrounding tissues (nerves, blood vessels and collagen) to a greater extent. It is designed for body contouring and defining areas, not for weight loss. Like all surgery, it requires Anaesthesia, a preoperative study and a Individual valuation by the surgeon, who will confirm if you are a good candidate.
How does it work
A type of liposuction that uses ultrasound energy to selectively target unwanted fat, while respecting other tissues.
El calor y la vibración de los ultrasonidos licúan la grasa de forma selectiva; una vez emulsionada, se extrae con una succión suave por pequeñas incisiones. Al respetar el tejido graso, preserva mejor los nervios, los vasos y el colágeno, favoreciendo la skin retraction.
This greater respect for the tissues is what allows for working the so-called High definitionto remove the fat surrounding the muscles to define muscle contours and achieve a more athletic look. Furthermore, as it doesn't break down fat cells, the extracted fat can be reused (for example, in a Body fat transferBefore the intervention, the pre-operative standard for any cosmetic surgery (blood tests and electrocardiogram).
The main difference is the ultrasound technologyVaser liposuction aspirates fat directly with cannulas, while Vaser Blend first, which allows for cleaner extraction and finer reshaping. It's not the same as non-surgical liposuction, which is a non-surgical medical-aesthetic treatment.
| Vaser liposuction (ultrasound) | Traditional liposuction |
|---|---|
| Liquefy the fat with ultrasound before aspirating. | Suck the fat out directly with a cannula |
| Selective: better respects nerves, vessels, and collagen | Less selectivity for neighbouring tissues |
| Greater definition and high muscle definition | More general volume reduction |
| Greater skin retraction due to the effect of ultrasound | Minor skin retraction |
| Makes it easier to treat several areas in a single session. | It may require more manoeuvring in wide areas |
| Allows fat reuse (lipofilling) | The aspirated fat is usually discarded. |
