VASER LIPOSUCTION
Diet and exercise are the go-to’s when you want to get your belly in check. But what about that last little bit of fat that never seems to go away? That’s where VASER lipo comes in.
With VASER lipo, you can get targeted fat removal almost anywhere on your body. More advanced than traditional lipo, VASER allows an experienced doctor to sculpt your body with amazing precision. You can get the abs or body sculpting you desire with minor swelling and little downtime. Patients can often be awake during VASER liposuction or awake liposuction, depending on the extent of the procedure and the type of anesthesia used.


VASER Liposuction is an advanced body contouring technology that uses ultrasound energy to gently break down and remove unwanted fat. Compared to traditional liposuction, VASER offers greater precision, enhanced results, and a faster recovery. Here are the key benefits:
- Enhanced Fat Removal with Precision
- Improved Skin Retraction
- Minimally Invasive with Less Downtime
- Ideal for High-Definition Contouring
- Fat Preservation for Transfer
- Customizable for All Body Types

WHAT IS VASER LIPOSUCTION?
VASER Hi Def lipo sculpting is a minimally invasive liposuction technique that uses ultrasound technology to break down and remove fat deposits.
First, the targeted fat area is injected with a solution to numb the area and compress blood vessels.

Next, the VASER ultrasounds probes are inserted into the body through small incisions.
The probes then emit a high ultrasound frequency, breaking down the fat cells. The fat particles combine with the injected solution which is then removed from the body using specialized cannulas.
During the healing process, your skin will continue to retract, giving a smooth natural-looking result.
This four-step process visibly improves your skin with long-lasting and remarkable results quickly.

WHAT DOES VASERLIPO TREAT?
This type of ultrasound technology is used to remove small targeted pockets of fat using special cannulas. The possibilities don’t just end at far removal though; VASER liposuction is the chosen method used for shaping and sculpting. It can give you a chiseled six-pack look when used for ab etching. Immediately, you will be able to see and feel the results. Your skin will continue to firm and tighten as it heals, naturally improving your skin’s elasticity.
VASER lipo is a very adaptable and versatile procedure that can treat stubborn regions of fat in the following areas:
- Belly
- Hips
- Back
- Arms
- Legs
- Neck/Jawline

VASERLIPO VS. TRADITIONAL LIPO
Unlike normal liposuction, VASER lipo is not intended for large-scale fat removal. Although VASERlipo is overall less invasive than traditional lipo, it still requires a cannula, a fat suctioning device, and incisions. But thanks to the breakthrough laser lipo technology, the cannula and incisions needed are significantly smaller compared to that of regular lipo.

- Want fat grafted and transferred to other areas of the body?
- Have an overall healthy BMI.
- Do not have an excessive amount of loose skin.
- Are at a stable weight that is relatively close to their ideal/goal weight.
- Have sufficient time set aside for the procedure (at least 2-3 days for recovery).
- Realistic expectations of what can be achieved with the procedure.

Vaser Liposuction Surgery FAQs
Vaser Liposuction (short for Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance) is an advanced form of fat removal that uses ultrasound technology to gently break apart and loosen fat cells from surrounding tissues. This allows for more precise and effective fat removal compared to traditional liposuction, with less pain, less trauma, and a smoother recovery.
Unlike general weight-loss methods, Vaser is designed to target specific stubborn areas of fat that do not respond to diet and exercise. By focusing on these problem spots, it can sculpt and refine your body with natural-looking results. Patients often choose Vaser liposuction for its ability to deliver safe, minimally invasive, and highly targeted contouring while enhancing muscle definition.
When performed by a skilled and experienced cosmetic surgeon, VASER liposuction is considered a safe and effective way to achieve smoother, more sculpted body contours. Unlike traditional liposuction, which can be more aggressive, VASER was designed to provide a gentler and more precise approach. By using ultrasound energy, it breaks down fat cells selectively while leaving important surrounding tissues—such as nerves, blood vessels, and connective structures- largely unharmed.
This precision not only helps the treated area heal more naturally but also reduces the risk of irregularities, leaving behind results that look both balanced and refined. Another benefit patients often notice is that pain, swelling, and bruising are generally less severe than with conventional liposuction, making recovery easier and more comfortable. Because VASER is versatile, it can be applied to both large and small areas of the body, making it an excellent choice for those who want targeted fat removal with natural-looking results.
VASER liposuction not only removes stubborn fat but also offers the added benefit of skin tightening. The ultrasound energy used during the procedure stimulates collagen production, which helps the skin retract and adapt to the body’s new shape. This makes VASER especially appealing for patients who want smoother, more refined contours. Many patients are pleased with their results, noting improvements not only in fat reduction but also in the appearance of skin dimpling and irregularities.
That said, the degree of skin tightening depends on the individual. In cases of moderate to severe skin laxity, additional procedures such as a tummy tuck, arm lift, or thigh lift may still be necessary to achieve the best outcome. For patients seeking sleek, natural-looking, and more youthful results, VASER liposuction remains an excellent option.
An ideal candidate for VASER liposuction usually has good skin elasticity, is close to their goal weight (within about 20–30 pounds), and has localized fat deposits that do not respond to diet or exercise. However, patients with more significant skin laxity may benefit from combining VASER with a skin-tightening or lifting procedure to achieve the best results.
Once the swelling diminishes, your newly contoured shape will be more clearly defined. It is important to note that while the fat cells removed during liposuction do not grow back, remaining fat cells can still expand with weight gain. For this reason, maintaining a healthy lifestyle—including a balanced diet and regular exercise—is essential to preserving your results over the long term.
Yes, the results of VASER liposuction can be long-lasting and even permanent, as the fat cells that are removed do not grow back. However, it is important to understand that the procedure does not prevent future weight gain.
If a patient gains weight after surgery, the remaining fat cells in the body can still enlarge, which may affect the overall contour. For this reason, maintaining a stable weight through healthy diet and regular exercise is key to preserving the results. With proper lifestyle habits, most patients enjoy their improved shape and definition for many years.
Yes, VASER liposuction is highly effective for male chest reduction (gynecomastia) and for creating a more athletic look through techniques like abdominal etching, defining the obliques, and enhancing pectoral contours. Its precision allows surgeons to sculpt the body in ways that highlight natural muscle structure, giving patients a leaner, more defined appearance.
Many men choose VASER not only for fat removal but also for the confidence boost that comes with a stronger, more balanced physique. This makes it a popular choice for those seeking results that go beyond simple fat reduction to achieve true body refinement.
The majority of complications tend to arise when liposuction is performed by inexperienced or unqualified providers. Choosing a board-certified cosmetic surgeon like Dr. Babak Moein, who specializes in advanced body contouring procedures, greatly reduces your risk.
