I read that the recovery time for Vaser is quicker than for traditional lipo, why?(http://www.cosmeticsurgerythailand.com/vaser-in-thailand.html)
There is no evidence that Vaser liposuction has a shorter recovery time than standard liposuction. In fact, Vaser, laser, or ultrasound assisted liposuction is an additional step that must be followed up with standard liposuction. Recovery time from liposuction is dependent on how many areas are being treated and how much each area is suctioned. More areas being treated or larger areas with more fatty tissue to be suctioned will increase discomfort in the first week especially. The use of general anesthesia or not has very little effect on recovery past the first 24 hours. Returning to normal daily activities including driving usually occurs in about 2 to 4 days for most individuals. Return to exercise can vary, but I usually ask my patients to not exercise for two weeks.
Best of luck.
I am very athletic (5"9"- 128lb), love to run and lift weights, and would like to get a breast lift with implants to a size C cup (I am currently 34B). I would like to keep an athletic, natural look- would that be a Moderate Profile @ about 300ccs or do you have any other recommendations? Also, I read about Smartlipo/Vaser Hi Def breast lift and wondered if I would be a candidate? Or is a doughnut mastopexy my only option? Lastly, is there a way to fix the asymmetry of my breasts? Thank you!!
The type of breast lift you would need depends on the level of your nipple and the quality and amount of breast skin you have. First the implant is placed, usually under the muscle (subpectoral). This will restore the needed volume and occasionally fill out some of the skin to a point where you may not need a lift. Most patients will need a lift, either a circular incision or a lollipop-type incison which involves a circle with a vertical extension underneath it. The latter type of lift is used to create more of a lift and remove more skin. Although this involves more a scar, the resulting shape/contour is typically worth it.
Without photos it is very difficult to give you more information.
I recommend consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon for a full evaluation of your options.
Best wishes,
Dr. Bruno
