I had a horrible experience. I swelled up 10 times the size i was. I ws in horrible pain and uncomfortable. I have been back 16 times for extra treatments to try and correct whatever went wrong. It seems that all the blood stored inside my stomach and turned into hge blood clots. I had more surgery to break up the clots and now they are back again. It has been 27 days since my vaser surgery.

Totally not worth any amount of money. I am getting married in 5 weeks and cant fit in my dress.

Oh I am so terribly sorry to hear about your experience - I too am getting married later in the year and was seriously considering having Vaser in order to be able to fit my dress nicely for my big day. Must say I was already concerned prior to reading about your experience basically because I am a suk..and now even more so...Yey so many others have had amazing results. I do hope you are well soon....Goodluck

I have scheduled Vaser Liposelection for June 4th. I am having my inner thighs and saddle bags done. I exercise every day and have stubborn pockets of fat. A plastic surgeon said he would not do regular liposuction because there was not enough fat in one area. I found Vaser and decided to try that. I am very active and I am worried about how long I will be sitting at home in pain. I am also concerned with spending my money on a procedure that does not work. Any comments?

How is Vaser Lipo different than Smart Lipo, which is more recommended? Can a doctor please post their comments? Thank you!

Vaser uses sound waves and Smartlipo is a laser. They are used for different purposes. No one can say for sure what is better for you unless you are examined by a doctor that uses both techniques. However, as a generalization, Vaser is better for removing larger quantities of fat under general anesthesia. Smartlipo is better for local anesthesia, tightening skin, and smaller quantities of fat. Sometimes, they are used together if someone needs both.
