Achieving a slimmer, more sculpted body can feel frustrating when stubborn fat refuses to respond to diet and exercise. VASER Liposuction offers an advanced body contouring solution that precisely removes localized fat while enhancing your natural body definition. At Vow Clinic Dubai, our experienced cosmetic surgeons create personalised VASER Liposuction treatment plans based on your body shape, aesthetic goals, and lifestyle. Using modern ultrasound-assisted technology, VASER gently emulsifies fat before removal, allowing for precise body sculpting, smoother contours, and natural-looking results with the option to harvest fat for procedures such as Fat Transfer or a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL).
What Is VASER Liposuction?
VASER Liposuction is a state of the art technique of ultrasound-assisted liposuction (UAL) that removes stubborn fat and restores a more natural body contour. The process does not only break up fat with mechanical force but it also uses controlled ultrasound energy which separates fat cells from their surrounding tissues prior to carefully removing the fat.
This technique enables surgeons to do body contouring more accurately. Fat is the main target of the ultrasound energy, so there is less disruption of important tissues like blood vessels, nerves, or connective tissue than with the traditional liposuction methods.
VASER Liposuction is not about weight loss, but sculpting the body. It is best for individuals that are already at a stable weight and wish to lose fat around specific areas of their bodies that are difficult to lose through diet and exercise. Treating areas include abdomen, waist, flanks, thighs, arms, back, chest, chin and neck.
What Does VASER Stand For?
The term VASER is used for Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance.
It is named after the technology used in the procedure. Special ultrasound probes are used to send high-frequency sound energy below the skin. These vibrations specifically attack fat cells, while preserving other tissues in the area. When the fat separates, the surgeon extracts it from the body with a thin cannula that sucks the fat.
This selective method allows the surgeon to have a better control during the body sculpting procedure and also assists in making the sculpting process more natural and smooth.
How Is VASER Different From Traditional Liposuction?
Traditional liposuction relies mainly on the physical movement of a cannula to manually break apart and suction fat. This technique is useful in the removal of fat, but it can be more aggressive.
In VASER Liposuction, the ultrasound energy is introduced prior to the beginning of the
suction. The sound waves gently break down fat cells – this is known as fat emulsification – which allows the fat to be removed more easily. Surgeons can create body contours more accurately since they don’t work as hard to break down fat mechanically.
The main difference is body shape. The traditional liposuction concentrates on the amount of fat, while the VASER method gives the surgeon the ability to sculpt the muscle lines and natural curves. This is a favorable choice for those who want to achieve an athletic look to their body contouring or sculpting for high definition.
How Does VASER Liposuction Work?
Tumescent Fluid
The initial step of the procedure is to inject a special tumescent solution into the area to be treated. This is typically composed of sterile saline solution, local anaesthetic and a medication that decreases bleeding.
The fluid increases the fat tissue, deadens the treatment location and separates the fat cells. It also helps to reduce blood loss and help to make the patient more comfortable during surgery.
Ultrasound Energy
Once the tumescent solution has had an effect, the surgeon slides a tiny VASER probe under the skin.
Controlled ultrasound energy is sent out by the probe, specifically into the fat tissue. The ultrasound waves soften fat, but not in an aggressive manner that is done by manual liposuction.
This selective action helps to maintain vital structures like blood vessels, nerves, connective and collagen-rich support structures.
Smoothing these tissues helps to achieve a more natural appearance and can help the skin to heal after liposuction. Maintaining these tissues helps to create smoother contours and can aid the skin’s healing after liposuction.
Fat Emulsification
Loosened fat starts fat emulsification as the ultrasound works its effect.
The fat does not stay solid, but becomes soft and liquid. This change will enable the surgeon to use lower suction pressure to remove fat.
The technique can also provide easier contouring and body sculpting since the fat is easier to remove.
The fat quality can also enable the fat to be considered fit for purification and re use in selected fat transfer procedures.
Gentle Fat Removal
After the fat is emulsified, a narrow cannula with gentle suction is inserted.
The cannula suctions the fat in a liquid form, which is done carefully without altering the natural contours of the body. Rather than just cutting or removing volume, the surgeon artfully contours the treatment area for proportion and definition.
Body Sculpting
One of the greatest benefits of VASER technology is body sculpting.
Aside from the fat removal, surgeons can work on creating and developing the body’s natural curves and give it a more prominent muscle definition. A strategy of fat removal can produce a more fluid effect between body parts and enhance balance.
All treatment plans are completely customized as each person’s anatomy and cosmetic objectives are unique.
Fat Harvesting for Transfer
The VASER method allows for the preservation of fat quality that is harvested, which is not possible with some traditional liposuction procedures. Your own fat means there’s no need for the synthetic stuff and you can have a surgeon remove fat from another part of your body and transfer it to the part that needs to be enhanced.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
Abdomen
Even with exercise and proper nutrition, many people still have stubborn belly fat that prevents them from showing off their muscles.
VASER liposuction will eliminate the fat from areas of the body such as the upper abdomen and lower abdomen and accentuate the natural lines of the body. This is a popular place to get treated by patients who are looking for a flatter stomach or a more athletic figure.
Waist
Having a clear waistline provides a complete outline to the body and makes it better balanced for men and women alike. The excess fat around the midsection can create a wider waist and flatten the curves of the body.
The VASER technology enables a surgeon to precisely shape the waist to achieve smoother lines between the abdomen and hips.
Love Handles
The flanks (love handles) are sometimes difficult to lose weight in despite diet and exercise. These fat deposits can make clothing less fit and decrease the waistline.
When performed in conjunction with abdominal contouring, removing fat from the flanks will help to achieve a slimmer look while enhancing overall body proportions.
Chest (Male)
Excess fat around the chest might lead to a man’s feeling self conscious. Sometimes the enlargement is due to fat accumulation instead of the enlargement of the glandular tissue.
With VASER Liposuction, excess fat can be eliminated from the chest area to give a more compact, even and manly shape. At the consultation, your surgeon will decide if the combination of liposuction or other procedures will yield the best results.
Arms
Arms can look bulky if there is fat along the top of the arms, which can detract from the appearance of the muscles.
VASER technology can be used to gently remove fat and produce more proportionate, slimmer arms with smooth contours. If the skin is lax (loose) in the upper arm, some patients opt for an arm lift along with arm liposuction.
Thighs
Stubborn fat on the thighs, both inner and outer, is a frequent problem that can cause discomfort and alter body shape.
Treating the thighs with VASER Liposuction can:
- Slim bulky thighs
- Improve leg proportions
- Minimize thigh rubbing against each other
Back
VASER Liposuction will help to smooth these areas and enhance the slimmer curve between the back, waist and hips. Some patients opt for a contouring procedure to their back along with liposuction of the abdomen for more comprehensive body contouring.
Chin
The cause of a double chin may be due to genetics, aging or weight gain. Patients younger than that with normal body weight can feel fullness under their chin.
VASER Liposuction helps eliminate excess fat in this area to sharpen the jawline and provide a more streamlined jawline.
Neck
Fat deposits in the neck area can cause the face to look fat and give the impression that the jawline is not present.
When performed carefully, the removal of fat from the neck can help to improve the balance and shape of the face, making it look slimmer and more youthful.
What Is High-Definition (HD) VASER Liposuction?
High-Definition (HD) VASER Liposuction is a cutting edge body contouring procedure that utilizes VASER ultrasound-assisted technology for laser liposuction to create a body that’s sculpted with extreme precision. HD VASER Liposuction is not just about fat removal; it’s an art of strategically removing fat to expose a body’s natural muscle structure. The aim is not only to achieve a slimmer but a more sculptured and athletic body form with a natural and harmonious contour.
The procedure eliminates fat around muscle groups to improve the definition of the muscles in the abdomen, chest, shoulders, arms and back. This exact procedure can help achieve an athletic look with toned figures, while still allowing each patient to retain their natural proportions. HD VASER Liposuction also offers six pack etching for those who have an appropriate profile, well toned muscles and low body fat, allowing a precise sculpting around the muscles to enhance their appearance without creating an artificial look.
Both men and women can undergo HD VASER Liposuction, and every treatment plan is custom-designed to patient’s anatomy and aesthetic objectives. Men tend to want to get a more toned chest and a more V shaped torso, while women usually want a slimmer waist, flatter abdomen, improved curves, and better body definition overall. With its advanced ultrasound technology, surgeons can contour with precision, ensuring smoother transitions between body parts and a natural looking contouring outcome.
Who Is a Good Candidate for VASER Liposuction?
Near Ideal Weight
Ideal candidates are generally around their target body weight.
VASER is not meant to establish a healthy diet and exercise program, but is used to eliminate unwanted fat. Stable weight patients are likely to have the most predictable body contouring outcome.
Localized Fat Deposits
There are some fat deposits which are resistant to diet and exercise.
Typical areas of treatment are:
- Abdomen
- Waist
- Flanks
- Thighs
- Arms
- Back
- Chin
- Neck
These fat pockets can be effectively addressed using VASER to result in smoother contour of the body.
Good Skin Elasticity
Healthy skin with good elasticity adapts more effectively to the body’s new shape after fat removal. VASER technology can help to retract the skin in some patients but can not eliminate excessive skin. Your surgeon may also suggest a body contouring surgery like a tummy tuck or arm lift to be done at the same time if there is a lot of sagging skin.
Patients Seeking Body Definition
Individuals who have a healthy lifestyle but desire muscle definition are good candidates.
If a person has a muscle that they would like to look better, they can use HD VASER Liposuction to remove fat that is hiding the muscle, thus improving its appearance.
Healthy Adults
Ideal candidates typically have good overall health, do not smoke or are willing to quit before surgery, know what is involved with the recovery and are dedicated to results.
Who Is Not a Good Candidate?
Severe Obesity
VASER Liposuction is a body contouring procedure not an obesity treatment.
In cases of a high body mass index (BMI), weight loss or a medically supervised weight management programme might be a better option before surgery, than undergoing it.
Poor Skin Elasticity
Fat alone may not be effective if it has been lost from the skin as a result of aging, pregnancy or a significant amount of weight loss, as it may leave behind loose or hanging skin.
In such cases, a skin tightening or body lift procedure may be used in conjunction with liposuction to achieve more aesthetically pleasing results.
Unrealistic Expectations
While VASER can enhance the shape of the body, it won’t make it look completely different, or perfect.
Patients with knowledge of the procedure’s strengths and weaknesses are more likely to be pleased with the outcome.
Certain Medical Conditions
There are some health conditions that can pose a risk to surgery or interfere with recovery.
Your surgeon will thoroughly review your medical history, medications, surgical history, allergies and overall health to determine if VASER Liposuction is right for you.
Further medical clearance might also be needed if required to make sure the procedure is a safe one to perform.
VASER Liposuction Procedure
Consultation
The first step in your journey with VASER liposuction is to meet with your cosmetic surgeon to discuss your objectives and expectations. In this appointment, your surgeon will listen to your concerns, your medical history, your lifestyle, your prior treatments, and what you hope to achieve from the body contouring procedure. The physical exam tells you if you are an appropriate candidate and those areas that can be treated to give you balanced and natural results. You will also be provided with comprehensive information regarding the treatment, results, recovery and risks.
Body Assessment
The comprehensive body evaluation helps your surgeon assess the distribution of fat, skin elasticity, muscle definition and overall body proportions. Treatment areas are outlined to develop a personalised surgical approach that aligns with your natural anatomy and desired goals.
Treatment Planning
Your surgeon designs a custom treatment plan based upon your consultation and body evaluation. This involves finding out which areas of the body will be treated, how much fat would be removed and if it is suitable for High-Definition (HD) body sculpting, as well as reviewing any additional procedures like Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) or Fat Transfer.
Anesthesia
VASER Liposuction can be carried out with local anaesthetic and sedation or under general anaesthetic, depending on the size of the procedure and the amount of areas being treated. Your surgeon will choose the best one for you to be comfortable and safe during surgery.
Ultrasound Fat Emulsification
A special VASER probe is used to deliver the ultrasound energy below the skin after application of a tumescent solution in the treatment area. It is a gentle energy that releases and emulsifies the fat while maintaining the integrity of surrounding blood vessels, nerves and connective tissue. This process can contour the body in more exact manner with less interference to surrounding structures.
Fat Aspiration
After the fat is emulsified, your surgeon will remove it with a very thin cannula attached to gentle suction. Instead of just smoothing out fat, the surgeon meticulously designs the treated space to balance the proportions of the body and build natural contours and smoothness where fat is removed and useful muscle contours are enhanced.
Compression Garment
The process is completed with application of a compression garment on the area to aid healing. It’s important to wear the garment as directed to decrease swelling, increase comfort, allow the skin to acclimatise to the garment’s contours, and helps to create a smoother finish in recovery.
VASER Liposuction Recovery Timeline
First 24 Hours
The first day following VASER Liposuction is a day of rest and preliminary healing. The small incisions will cause mild swelling, bruising, soreness and some fluid drainage. Your surgeon will recommend walking around to promote good circulation, and will recommend wearing your compression garment all the time. Most patients go home the day of the procedure.
First Week
Swelling and bruising start to improve during the first week, though the treated areas might still be tender. For most cases, it is safe to resume a desk job within a few days after surgery, depending on the type of surgery. Avoid vigorous activity, keep in compression and follow up with appointments as scheduled to see how you are doing.
Two Weeks
Most patients feel much more comfortable and mobile by the second week. The bruising typically fades and the swelling slows down and then subsides and daily activities return to normal. You may be ready to get back to your usual routine, but your body is still recovering on the inside and it’s important to follow your surgeon’s recovery guidelines.
One Month
The new contours of the body are more apparent around 1 month after surgery with continued swelling. Patients get back to their normal exercise routine with surgeon permission, and clothing may even fit better as the body’s shape around the treated areas is more streamlined and precise.
Three Months
Most of the swelling has subsided by the third month and the outcome of the surgery can be fully appreciated. During this time, patients who have received High-Definition (HD) VASER Liposuction may start to notice the improvement in muscle definition and the sculpted, athletic look.
Six Months
The results for most patients are evident within 6 months of treatment, although slight enhancements can be seen as the tissues completely settle in. The treated areas look smoother, more natural and contoured. By maintaining a healthy lifestyle and weight, you can keep your long term VASER Liposuction results intact.
When Will I See Final Results?
| Timeline | Expected Progress |
| Week 1 | Swelling and bruising. |
| Month 1 | Swelling decreases. Your body begins revealing its new shape. |
| Month 3 | Waist appears more defined and muscle definition becomes visible. |
| Month 6 | The treated areas look smoother, more proportionate, and better defined. |
Benefits of VASER Liposuction
Precise Fat Removal
Prior to any suction, ultrasound energy is used to target the fat cells selectively.
The precision enables surgeons to slice out of a way fat without compromising surrounding tissues, which results in a more handsome contouring of the body.
High-Definition Body Contouring
VASER technology aids in creating a very high level of detail, accentuating natural muscle anatomy.
VASER is a body contouring technique that can be used to create a more athletic look for patients who want to have more control over what their body looks like than they can get with traditional liposuction procedures.
Improved Muscle Definition
The fat above muscles is removed, which reveals the natural contours.
This benefit is very prominent in places like abdomen, chest, arms, back and waist.
This provides a slimmer, more toned look without altering your body’s natural shape.
May Enhance Skin Retraction
VASER Liposuction doesn’t tighten the skin as a skin tightening surgery does, but the technology could be beneficial for better skin retraction in appropriate patients than standard liposuction.
Client whose skin is elastic may have a smoother contour, as the skin will conform to the new shape of the patient’s body.
Fat Can Be Used for Fat Transfer
An advantage of VASER technology is that it is able to remove quality fat that is appropriate for transfer.
Once purified, the fat can be transferred to other parts of the body such as the buttocks, breast, face, hips and hands.
The fat you use is your own fat and it brings out natural-looking enhancement without the use of any synthetic fillers or implants.
Long-Lasting Body Contours
Removing fat cells does not allow them to regenerate.
By adopting a healthy lifestyle, you can maintain your results for years.
VASER Liposuction Before and After Results
Defined Abdomen
A smaller bump in the abdomen area exposes the flatter, firmer midsection. Some patients with good muscle tone may even find that there are better contours in the abdomen as the wound heals.
Slimmer Waist
The waist and the flanks must be carefully sculpted to form a narrower waist and accentuate the curves of the body. This alteration can help to enhance overall body balance and fit for clothing.
Athletic Chest
In males, VASER Liposuction can help to sculpt the contours of the chest to become firmer and more masculine, while taking off excess fat. The procedure is designed to help reshape the chest with greater definition and retaining natural proportions.
Better Body Proportions
The best thing about VASER Liposuction may be the overall body harmony. The procedure narrows down the fat in targeted areas to eliminate stubborn fat, which creates a more streamlined look between various sections of the body, providing a more balanced look from all angles.
Is VASER Liposuction Permanent?
Fat Cell Removal
Once formed, an adult’s fat cells are relatively permanent. In VASER Liposuction, fat cells are permanently eliminated in the area being treated.
Since the cells are not replaced, the treated area typically will maintain its thinner shape if you don’t gain weight.
Weight Maintenance
Adopting a healthy lifestyle is a crucial factor to maintaining your results.
Avoid gaining weight by eating in an unbalanced way and not exercising regularly, as this will allow the remaining fat cells to expand.
Lifestyle After Surgery
For best results, you should use VASER Liposuction in conjunction with good habits.
You may need to follow an eating plan, exercise regularly, drink plenty of water, stop smoking, regular checkups, and keeping your weight stable to maintain your results.
The procedure should be done in harmony with your healthy lifestyle, not in place of it.

VASER Liposuction vs GPS Laser Liposuction
Energy Source
- VASER Liposuction involves utilizing ultrasound energy to loosen fat cells prior to removal.
- GPS Laser Liposuction utilizes laser energy to melt fat, and to heat the fat within the treated area.
Body Sculpting
- Precise body sculpting and high-definition contouring has made VASER a well known name, as ultrasound energy lets for the removal of fat in detail around the natural muscle structure.
- GPS Laser Liposuction is a technique that enhances body contours as well, but typically targets fat removal along with skin tightening benefits.
Skin Tightening
- The heat from laser assisted liposuction can help stimulate the production of collagen, which can help tighten skin.
- VASER is mainly aimed at fat emulsification and the precise contours, but skin retraction may also be enhanced depending on the quality of the skin.
Precision
- VASER Liposuction procedures may be ideal for patients who are looking for detailed muscle definition.
- Patients who have mild skin laxity may benefit from laser-assisted procedures. The right one is determined by your body type, treatment objectives and your surgeon’s evaluation.
VASER Liposuction vs J Plasma (Renuvion)
Fat Removal
- VASER Liposuction is an effective technique for eliminating fat stores from specific areas and creating a more sculpted figure.
- J Plasma (Renuvion) cannot remove fat. Instaed it concentrates on tightening up any loose skin with helium plasma and radio frequency energy.
Skin Tightening
- Patients who have moderate-to-severe skin laxity may benefit from J Plasma following liposuction as skin will be tighter and this will help the body contour.
- VASER is meant for eliminating unwanted fat and J Plasma is for skin laxity.
Combined Procedures
- Many cosmetic surgeons perform both of the treatments at the same time.
- This combination can help patients obtain the contours, tightness and smoothness of the skin as well as a better definition of the body. Your surgeon will decide if a combination of procedures is right for you based on your skin elasticity and treatment goals.
Candidate Selection
- VASER Liposuction can be used to get great results on stubborn fat on patients who have firm skin.
- If patients have also visible excess skin, they may benefit from a combination of VASER and J Plasma or another skin tightening procedure.
VASER Liposuction vs CoolSculpting
Surgical vs Non-Surgical
- VASER Liposuction is a procedure that is performed while under anesthesia.
- CoolSculpting is a non surgical procedure that freezes fat cells without any incisions made.
Immediate Fat Removal
- During the procedure, VASER eliminates fat cells, enabling the surgeon to alter the body’s shape right away.
- CoolSculpting will slowly kill off fat cells that the body will break down over a few weeks to months.
Recovery
- VASER Recovery involves swelling, bruising and compression garment.
- CoolSculpting requires little downtime because it does not involve surgery.
Best Candidates
Patients who are good candidates for VASER Liposuction include:
- Looking for significant contour enhancement
- Look for a high definition body sculpting experience.
- Looking for fat loss from more than one location.
- Are comfortable with surgery
CoolSculpting might be appropriate for patients who:
- Prefer non surgical treatment
- Have small fat deposits
- Want minimal downtime
- Accept gradual results
Can VASER Liposuction Be Combined with Other Procedures?
Fat Transfer
Fat removed during VASER Liposuction can frequently be cleaned and re-sculpted elsewhere in the body to create fullness or enhance body contours.
Common areas for treatment are the face, hips, breasts and buttocks.
Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)
Brazilian Butt Lift is a fat grafting procedure that is performed along with liposuction to improve the size and silhouette of the buttocks.
With VASER technology high quality harvested fat is achieved that can be appropriate for the patient for transfer, depending on the individual case.
Tummy Tuck
For patients who have loose skin in the tummy after weight loss or pregnancy, a tummy tuck might be performed in conjunction with VASER Liposuction.
VASER gets rid of the fat while a tummy tuck tightens the abdominal muscles and eliminates excess skin.
J Plasma (Renuvion)
Surgeons can treat difficult fat and skin laxity in the same surgery with the combination of VASER and J Plasma.
This can help to enhance the definition of the body, and aid in the re sculpting of the skin to the new lines.
Arm Lift
In some patients who have excess fat and loose skin in the upper arms, arm lift surgery can be performed in conjunction with VASER Liposuction.
The liposuction will remove fat, and the arm lift will remove excess skin.
Thigh Lift
VASER Liposuction may be a good option for patients who have excess skin around the thighs, which can be removed during the thigh lift to create more smooth body proportions and leg contours.
Chin Liposuction
Combining the treatment for the chin and neck can often result in a more defined jawline and more symmetrical facial profile.
Detailed contouring in these sensitive places is possible thanks to the VASER technology.
Risks and Side Effects
Swelling
Redness and swelling are very prevalent side effects.
It slowly improves over a few weeks, but may have mild swelling for several months as the body continues to heal.
Bruising
Bruising is typically seen in the first couple days following surgery and progressively resolve over weeks.
Temporary Numbness
Some patients experience temporary numbness or alteration of the sensations of the treated area.
Normal sensation will usually return as the nerves heal.
Fluid Collection (Seroma)
After surgery, sometimes fluid accumulates under the skin.
Your surgeon will be able to drain the larger seromas and treat the smaller ones.
Contour Irregularities
After any liposuction procedure, there can be uneven contours, asymmetry or small irregularities.
This can be minimised with careful planning during surgery, ensuring good healing and following your aftercare instructions.
Thermal Injury (Rare)
When applied properly, VASER is a safe technology, but the rare risk of thermal injury exists if it is not used properly.
A cosmetic surgeon who has a large volume of experience in performing this procedure, ultrasound assisted liposuction, can help reduce the risk and enhance the treatment results.

FAQs
What is VASER Liposuction?
VASER Liposuction is an advanced technique of ultrasound assisted liposuction which involves the use of ultrasound energy to soften fat cells prior to removal. It is used to reshape the body in a more precise manner, without harming surrounding tissues.
How does VASER Liposuction work?
The process starts by injecting tumescent fluid into the area being treated. The fat is then emulsified with ultrasound energy and removed easily with a thin cannula. The technique enables the surgeon to shape the body in a more intricate way than liposuction alone.
Is VASER better than traditional liposuction?
Both are for different purposes. While traditional liposuction is effective in removing larger amounts of fat, the VASER Liposuction is more precise and is especially well suited for detailed body contouring and sculpting in High-Definition (HD) sculpting.
Is VASER suitable for high-definition body sculpting?
Yes! VASER technology is very popular for High-Definition (HD) Liposuction as it helps the surgeon to emphasize the natural contours of the body’s muscles and provide a more athletic look.
Is VASER Liposuction permanent?
The fat cells which have been removed through the process are permanently taken out. But if you want to maintain your weight loss and keep the weight off long term, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Will VASER tighten loose skin?
The main use of VASER Liposuction is to take out fat; it is not to tighten the skin. In some patients, with good skin elasticity, the skin appears to retract, but a large amount of excess skin may require other procedures.
How long does recovery take?
Patients get back to light daily activity in 1 to 2 weeks. It takes a few months for swelling to improve, and final results are generally seen within 3 – 6 months.
Can VASER be combined with a Brazilian Butt Lift?
Yes! Depending on your treatment plan, the fat harvested in the VASER Liposuction treatment often can be cleaned and transferred to the buttocks during a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL).
Can fat removed with VASER be used for fat transfer?
Yes! The extracted fat may be appropriate for fat grafting techniques such as facial fat transfer, breast fat transfer or buttock fat enhancement, as the VASER technology gently separates the fat cells.
Is VASER painful?
The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, sedation or general anaesthetic, therefore won’t be painful. Some soreness, swelling and bruising is normal in the recovery period which typically gets better over the next few weeks.
Who is the ideal candidate for VASER Liposuction?
Ideal candidates include a healthy adult, close to their ideal weight, with an area of stubborn fat they are looking to remove and good skin elasticity.
How much does VASER Liposuction cost in Dubai?
The price usually ranges between AED 15,000 and AED 40,000 and varies according to the number of treatment areas, the complexity of the procedure, the skill level of the doctor performing the surgery and if other body contouring procedures are carried out.
