Is Vaser or traditional liposuction more effective for revision cases?
Answer: Revision Most revision liposuction is to remove excess fat. The Vaser portion is to tighten skin. If you only have excess fat and your skin is still fairly tight, then liposuction is all you need. An examination can tell what would be best for you.

Answer: Revision Liposuction Although Vaser can be used for revision liposuction, most of my colleagues still use the tenants of SAFElipo (an acronym: Separation/Aspiration/Fat Equalization, SAFE) to manage irregularities and create a smoother result. Specifically speaking, an expanded basket canula is used in the Separation phase to break up the scar tissue, usually after Vaser energy is applied. Also, fat grafts may be necessary to address excessive resections; these grafts are introduced into the region and then 'pushed around' to distribute them (Fat Equalization). It is my opinion that Vaser does very little to help, which is seconded by many that achieve a great result without Vaser. Keep in mind one important thing: there is no modality that achieves true skin tightening.

Answer: Lipo revision Dear Sacramento4651,it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Which liposuction method is best for revision lipo? It is more the experience in doing lipo revisions than the lipo technology used. Though, personally, I prefer traditional canulae small caliber over Vaser heat energy generating lipo. The Vaser has high rates of fibrosis and internal burns.
