VASER

Advantages of VASER
The procedure is essentially bloodless, hence making it safer than conventional tumescent liposuction. The main advantages are
1. Megaliposuctions – procedures with over 10 litres of fat removal are safe and regularly being performed
2. Skin contraction and skin tightening – it has been shown that VASER promotes collagen formation, leading to tighter skin and lesser sagging as compared to liposuction. Thus VASER is excellent in loose abdominal skin, thigh liposuctions where the incidence of sagging is the maximum.
3. Difficult areas – areas like the female breast, male breast, thighs, back, which are difficult to tackle with conventional liposuction are very easily treated with VASER with excellent results
4. Excellent skin shaping and body contours
5. 6-pack appearance of the abdomen with Hi-def VASER
