Am I a candidate for calf and ankle liposuction? Should I get Vaser Hi Definition Lipo or traditional liposuction? (Photo)

scalpelplease
Hi doctors. I am healthy, in my 20's, I weigh 120lbs and am 5"6. I am getting liposuction on my calves, ankles and knees. I have consulted with one doctor who has recommended Vaser Hi Defintion lipo rather than getting traditional liposuction. In all the information I have read online, it has always been recommended that you get traditional liposuction on this area with micro cannulas. I am a little confused now and hoping to get some clarity on the topic. Thank you.
