10 Frequently asked questions about VASER liposuction in Dubai

If you are considering VASER liposuction in Dubai, then you are not alone. VASER liposuction has quickly become one of the most popular surgical procedures performed globally, but why? We all have areas of stubborn fat that no amount of diet and exercise can seem to shift. VASER liposuction is an advanced body contouring procedure that selectively removes unwanted fat from the body. A revolutionary alternative to the harsh techniques of traditional liposuction, VASER liposuction uses state-of-the-art ultrasound technology to gently reshape your body.

Undergoing surgery of any kind takes careful research and consideration. We have therefore compiled a list of the 10 most frequently asked questions about VASER liposuction in Dubai to help you gain understanding of this innovative procedure:

What is VASER Liposuction?

VASER Liposuction is a highly sophisticated alternative to traditional liposuction. It uses ultrasound technology to emulsify the fat in your body. By turning the fat into a liquid, the fat can be easily removed from the body using a suction cannula, resulting in a more defined and sculpted appearance.

How is VASER Liposuction different from traditional liposuction?

Unlike traditional liposuction, VASER Liposuction utilises ultrasound energy to liquefy the fat cells before removal. This technique allows for more precise and targeted fat removal while minimizing damage to surrounding tissues, resulting in less bruising, swelling, and recovery time.

Who is a suitable candidate for VASER Liposuction?

Ideal candidates for VASER Liposuction are those who are at a stable weight but struggle with stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. It is essential to have realistic expectations and be in good overall health to undergo this procedure.

Which areas of the body can be treated with VASER Liposuction?

VASER Liposuction can be performed on various areas of the body, including the abdomen, flanks (love handles), thighs, buttocks, arms, back, and chin. It can effectively target both small and large areas to achieve your desired body contour.

How long does the procedure take, and is it painful?

The duration of the procedure depends on the number and size of the areas being treated. Typically, VASER Liposuction is performed under local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia, ensuring you remain comfortable throughout the procedure. Dr. Maurizio Viel, our Italian cosmetic surgeon at Cornerstone Clinic, will guide you through the entire process, ensuring your safety and comfort.

Can VASER Liposuction tighten loose skin?

While VASER Liposuction primarily focuses on removing excess fat, it can also stimulate collagen production and tissue tightening to a certain extent. However, its ability to tighten loose skin largely depends on the individual’s skin elasticity. For patients with significant skin laxity, combining VASER Liposuction with skin tightening procedures such as a tummy tuck or arm lift may yield more optimal results. Otherwise, Dr Maurizio Viel will use the J-Plasma Probe specifically for tightening skin. During your consultation with Dr. Maurizio Viel, he will assess your specific concerns and provide expert recommendations tailored to your needs.

Will VASER Liposuction help me lose weight?

No, VASER Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure. It is designed to target specific areas of stubborn fat and enhance body contouring, rather than promote overall weight loss. It is most suitable for individuals who are already at or near their ideal weight but struggle with localized fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. For weight loss, it is recommended to focus on a comprehensive weight loss plan that includes healthy eating and regular exercise.

What is the recovery process like after VASER Liposuction?

Following the procedure, you may experience some swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed medication. Most patients can resume their daily activities within a few days, with more strenuous activities gradually introduced after a few weeks. Dr. Maurizio Viel will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.

When will I see the final results?

Results can vary depending on individual circumstances, but you can expect to see noticeable improvements in your body contour within a few weeks. The final results will continue to improve as the swelling subsides, typically within three to six months after the procedure.

Are the results of VASER Liposuction permanent?

The fat cells removed during VASER Liposuction are permanently eliminated. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet is crucial to ensuring long-lasting results.

VASER Liposuction offers a revolutionary approach to body contouring, providing a safe and effective way to achieve their desired aesthetic goals.
