When you invest in a surgical procedure, it’s only natural that you want to see amazing results!
Many people love Vaser liposuction as it helps achieve a toned and sculpted body, and as it’s less invasive than traditional lipo, it has a shorter recovery time.
If you’re wondering if Vaser liposuction really works, we’ve put together this short guide so you can see if it’s right for you.
Am I a good candidate for Vaser liposuction?
Vaser liposuction is ideal if you’re within 30% of your target weight. If you’re over your target weight, losing additional weight after Vaser lipo may mean you are left with loose skin.
It’s also vital that you’re in good health to ensure you heal well after the procedure. If you smoke, you must quit three weeks before your surgery date.
You also need to have realistic expectations about your surgery. Vaser liposuction is excellent for adding definition and helping you shift stubborn fat you can’t eliminate with diet or exercise. However, it’s not a ‘magic bullet’ that will transform your body.
As long as you tick these criteria, you’re a good candidate for Vaser liposuction regardless of age or gender.
Can I have Vaser liposuction if I’m planning to get pregnant?
We recommend waiting until you’ve finished having children before you have Vaser lipo. If you gain significant amounts of weight during pregnancy, this may affect your surgery results.
It’s important to remember that you might not carry weight in the same places you did before the surgery.
However, getting Vaser liposuction doesn’t mean you can’t have children in the future, and it presents no risk to pregnancy.
If you decide to have children after the procedure, we advise waiting until you are fully recovered and healed.
What parts of the body can you have Vaser liposuction?
Vaser liposuction can target several areas of the body. This is the major advantage of Vaser liposuction over traditional liposuction.
Vaser lipo can be carried out on the:
- Abdomen
- Ankles
- Arms
- Back
- Buttocks
- Hips and flanks
- Knees
- Neck and chin
- Male chest (Vaser liposuction may be an option if you suffer from gynecomastia)
- Thighs
How much weight can I lose with Vaser liposuction?
It depends on your unique physiology and the area of your body that you are having treated. Generally, patients can expect to lose between 3-5lb (1.3 – 2.2 kg) during the procedure.
It’s important to remember that Vaser liposuction shouldn’t be treated as a weight loss surgery. While you will lose a small amount of weight in the form of fat cells, the main benefit is the sculpting and contouring of your body.
If you are looking to lose a more significant amount of weight, traditional liposuction may be better suited for your needs.
Does Vaser liposuction provide long-lasting results?
It does and by eating healthily, exercising regularly and avoiding unhealthy habits like smoking, you can see fantastic results for years to come.
Like all good things in life, you have to put the effort in!
Liposuction (both traditional and Vaser) work by removing fat cells from the body, but contrary to popular belief, it doesn’t remove all of them. If you follow an unhealthy diet and lifestyle, you will regain weight after surgery.
