The Benefits of Vaser Hi-Definition Liposuction for Men

Vaser Hi-Definition Liposuction is a surgical procedure gaining traction among men in Canberra. Unlike traditional liposuction, this advanced liposuction technique uses ultrasound technology to selectively target and remove fat. In this article, we’ll cover what Vaser Hi-Definition Liposuction is, the benefits, suitable candidates, the costs, and how men in Canberra can find the right clinic.

What is Vaser Hi-Definition Liposuction?

Vaser Hi-Definition liposuction is a surgical procedure designed to help men (and women) remove visceral fat and reveal muscle definition. Using advanced ultrasound technology, this method targets and breaks down fat cells, making them easier to remove compared to traditional liposuction.

How It Works

The Vaser Hi-Def process uses ultrasound waves to break down fat cells while aiming to reduce harm to surrounding tissues. This technique is more advanced than traditional liposuction, providing a more precise fat removal solution. It can be used to treat areas like the abdomen, hips, chest (for men), legs, and arms.

Advantages

• The ultrasound waves boost collagen production, potentially leading to firmer skin¹https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10022931/.
• This technique may allow for more efficient fat removal²https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0094129820326195.
• Vaser causes less bleeding and less trauma to the tissue compared to traditional liposuction³https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22456382/.

Candidates for Vaser Hi-Definition Liposuction

Not all men in Canberra are suitable candidates for Vaser Hi-Def Liposuction. However, you may be a good candidate if you identify with the following:

• Are near your ideal body weight.
• You have good skin elasticity.
• You have a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet.
• You want to remove visceral fat and reveal muscle definition, rather than just fat reduction.
• You have realistic expectations about the results of the procedure.
• You’re in good overall health, without any medical conditions that could impair healing or increase surgery risks.
• You don’t smoke (or at willing to quit several weeks before and after the procedure).
• You’re committed to maintaining their results post-procedure through ongoing fitness and nutrition.

The Vaser Hi-Definition Liposuction Procedure

Consultation 

First, you’ll have two consultations with your surgeon to discuss your objectives and see if you’re a suitable candidate for Vaser hi-def liposuction.

Pre-Operative Preparations

Before the procedure, you’ll need to undergo a medical evaluation and complete any necessary lab tests. Your surgeon will review your current medications and may ask you to adjust or stop some of them. It’s important to quit smoking if you smoke, as this can affect your recovery.

Procedure

On the day of the procedure, the surgeon will mark the areas to be treated. You’ll receive either local or general anaesthesia to make you comfortable. The surgeon then uses ultrasound waves to break down the fat cells in the marked areas. This liquefied fat is suctioned out, and the surgeon uses special techniques to reveal muscle definition.

Post-Operative Care 

After the surgery, your surgeon will give you specific instructions to help you recover smoothly. This includes wearing compression garments to reduce swelling and support your healing. You might have some bruising and discomfort, but these should improve within a few weeks. Most people can return to light activities in a few days and more strenuous activities after a few weeks. It’s important you attend all follow-up appointments with your surgeon to track your progress and address any concerns you may have.

Vaser Hi Def Liposuction for Men FAQs

What are the risks of Vaser Hi-Definition liposuction?

While Vaser Hi-Definition liposuction is generally safe, there are some risks, including:

• Infection
• Bruising and swelling
• Numbness or changes in skin sensation
• Scarring
• Uneven results

Your surgeon will go over these risks with you during your consultation.

Can you get Vaser Hi-Definition liposuction more than once?

Yes, you can have Vaser Hi-Definition Liposuction more than once. If you want to target additional areas or enhance your results, you can schedule another session after you’ve fully recovered from the first one.

How long does the procedure take?

The procedure usually takes between 2 to 4 hours, depending on the number of areas being treated. Your surgeon will give you a better idea of the time during your consultation.

Will I be awake during the procedure?

It depends on the type of anaesthesia you choose. You can have twilight sedation, where you’re relaxed but awake, or general anaesthesia, where you’re completely asleep. Your surgeon will help you decide which option is best for you.

How long does recovery take?

Most people can return to light activities within a few days. Full recovery, including going back to strenuous activities, usually takes about 4 to 6 weeks. Your surgeon will give you detailed instructions to help you recover smoothly.

Will I have scars?

The procedure involves small incisions, so any scars will be minimal and typically fade over time. Surgeons usually place incisions in less noticeable areas to reduce visible scarring.

Is Vaser Hi-Definition Liposuction permanent?

The fat cells removed during the procedure are permanently removed⁵https://med.stanford.edu/cosmeticsurgery/aestheticservices/body/liposuction.html. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is important to keep your results, as the remaining fat cells can still expand if you gain weight.
