Vaser Lipo to Lower Cheeks, Risk of Irregularities?

You can perform VASER Liposuction to the face, jowl, neck and cheek areas and it works well.  The VASER ultrasound breaks up the fat to allow you to work superficially under the skin, which is where all the fat is located in the face.  It helps to also tighten the face during the healing process.  With any liposuction procedure to the face there are risks.  The nerves that control the facial muscle movement can be injured either permanently or temporarily.  There is also a risk of contour irregularities as with any liposuction procedure.  The key is finding the right surgeon to do the procedure.

The Vaser Liposuction system makes instruments specifically for use on the face. Their face kit is an excellent system to define the jawline and neck, and sculpt the lower face. However, with every surgical instrument, the most important instrument is the surgeon performing the surgery. Even with the best devices there can be risks of complications, including contour irregularities. Thank you for your question. Best wishes.

Thank you for your question.

Vaser for removal of buccal and submental fat is one of the best tools available to surgeons currently. It is very likely to give you better contours than with conventional micro-cannula liposuction. Skin tends to retract well after Vaser.

However, Vaser still has risks like any surgical procedures of this nature, albeit may be to lesser degree than with a conventional liposuction

. Here are some of Vaser risks: swelling, bruising, scars, uneven contours, poor skin retraction, skin loss, infection, nerve damage. Careful consideration of potential risks and making an informed choice is the way forward.
