I have read online that VASER has been FDA approved, however have also read that UAL is non-FDA approved, and therefore not recommended. On a side note, I am 30 yrs old, 5'3", and 115lbs, wanting to have liposuction on my abdomen and possibly flanks. I have a special needs foster child who requires significant attention and am looking for a method with little downtime to be done by a good, kind PS in the Indy area. Any input/references are much appreciated! Thanks for reading!
Answer: VASER LIPO IS A 3RD GENERATION ULTRASOUND-ASSISTED LIPOSUCTION SYSTEM. Hello cautious9, I appreciate your questions! The Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance (VASER) is a 3rd generation ultrasound-assisted liposuction system. The 1st generation and 2nd generation ultrasound-assisted liposuction devices were very powerful so the incidence of burn injuries were very high. The VASER liposuction system is safer and rarely causes burn injuries if used by an experienced plastic surgeon. VASER Lipo works by using high-intensity, high-frequency ultrasound energy to liquefy fat cells so that they can be more easily aspirated through a suction device. By only selecting and melting fat, VASER leaves the surrounding nerves, blood vessels and connective tissue unaffected. Consequently, this procedure leads to a more rapid healing and smoother results. The recovery time needed for VASER Lipo is around 7-9 days, making it more convenient and appealing to my patients. Based on the information you have provided about your height and weight, your BMI is between the ideal parameters for a successful VASER lipo procedure. Set up an in-person consultation with an experienced plastic surgeon to discuss your particular needs and cosmetic expectations! Good luck and may God bless you! Dr. De La Cruz.

Answer: VASER liposuction
VASER is a type of ultrasound assisted liposuction. It is a safe and effective form of liposuction and is especially effective in helping to remove dense tissue like that seen in male breast tissue. While liposuction can be very effective for the right patient, it is still a surgical procedure and has some discomfort and down time. Make sure that you understand the full details of the procedure before you decide to have your surgery. It can be a very satisfying experience as long as you understand the risks and benefits and adhere to the post operative protocol.

Answer: VASER
Ultrasuound Assisted Lipolysis (ual) is the generalized classification for devices such as the VASER. The VASER is an excellent device and in the right hands can deliver excellent results. However you sound very petite and perhaps have just small areas for toning. I would recommend instead Laser Assisted Lipolysis, such as SLIM lipo. This procedure delivers excellent results, can be done under local anesthesia, and most of my patients go back to work the next day! Good luck!

Answer: Vaser Liposuction is Ultrasonic Assisted Liposuction
Vaser is Ultrasonic Assisted Liposuction. The FDA is vague and confusing in it posturing. Not an idea situation but it is what it is. The FDA approval of a device simply means they determine it is safe to use as stated. The FDA approves devices but never a procedure such as liposuction and ultrasonic liposuction. This would be like the FDA approving facelift surgery. They never approve procedures. The Vaser System is hands down the best high technology system for liposuction (ultrasonic liposuction). The Vaser System is far superior to other ultrasonic systems and is light years ahead of Smart Lipo in efficiency and results. Seek out a local Vaser surgeon and please assure he is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons. This assures you surgeon has 7 to 10 years of approved training and is not a doctor that claims to be a liposuction surgeon but has little if any surgical training. Liposuction is a serious procedure. Patients can be injured or can die because of poorly done liposuction. Be a very careful consumer. Get 5 consultations and do not be buffaloed. Make the doctor prove all claims. Make sure he has ABPS and FACS by his name and on his wall. Thanks, Dr C
