Selston cosmetic clinic near Nottingham has introduced the latest liposuction procedure for removing fat. It is called vaser lipo and is widely regarded as the gentlest method for removing unwanted fat. It harnesses ultrasound energy to break up fat in the body and at the same time, leaves veins and nerves untouched.

By using this approach the results are far smoother than more traditional liposuction techniques and result in far less swelling and bruising. As a result, recovery times are shorter. The area women usually request work on are abdomens, hips and inner thighs. Men usually request work on reducing unsightly breasts.

Surgeons can now work with greater skill and accuracy and tackle finer parts of the body, not touched before. For example chins and knees can now be recontoured with a higher degree of precision. The process involves dissolving body fat and then removing it with a suction device.

The patented Vaser Lipo Liposelection technology efficiently breaks up fat with diffuse ultrasound energy. The energy is delivered using small, solid, grooved probes. The liquefied fat is then removed with suction and massage using tiny cannalue designed to give minimal tissue trauma.

Vaser energy used in the process, dissolves unwanted body fat cells and does not affect normal healthy tissue such as nerves and blood vessels. It is performed under a locasl anaesthetic.

The results are fast. There will be some swelling for approximately 7 days and as it subsides, there will be slow improvement over the next 6 months as the skin grows and tightens. If you have the procedure carried out on Friday, you could be back at work on Monday. Light exercise is encouraged as soon as possible.

In an independent study, patients having had the procedure, experience very few complications such as chnaged skin sensation, skin induration, skin necrosis, prolonged swelling or skin burns compared with other techniques..

The choice of treatment will be dependent on the amount of fat to be removed. Vaser technology can remove larger amounts in one session, although there are limits to the amount of fat that can be removed totally.
