Are there side effects or after effects of VASER lipo?

Hi there- While I do personally believe that the VASER represents the safest and most effective tool for accomplishing lovely, natural improvements in body contour, it is critically important for you to realize that the tool used is not nearly important as the surgeon using it on you.
