VASER TECHNOLOGY

THE VASERlipo® SYSTEM IS AN IMPRESSIVE TECHNOLOGY that optimizes fat extraction without compromising the comfort of your patients. By selectively emulsifying fat cells prior to removal, the VASERlipo® system enables exceptional control during the procedure and reduces aspiration time.

HOW VASERlipo® WORKS

During body contouring with VASERlipo®, a tumescent fluid is infiltrated throughout the targeted fatty tissue area. This fluid, which naturally contains microscopic gas bubbles, surrounds and infiltrates between the loosely-connected fat cells. These air bubbles expand and collapse when exposed to the ultrasound energy emitted from the VASERlipo® probes. The force created by the collapsing air bubbles dislodges the fat cells from the fatty tissue matrix so that they can be easily removed.

As the fat cells are displaced, they are mixed with the tumescent solution by a process called acoustic streaming, further breaking down the fat clumps into smaller groups of intact fat cells, which are subsequently aspirated. Since the air bubbles cannot intersperse between the cells of more dense tissues like blood vessels, nerves and collagen fibers, these tissues remain largely unaffected by the ultrasound energy. The majority of the fat cells in the emulsion remain intact, allowing fat that is treated and removed during VASERlipo® to be utilised for subsequent fat grafting procedures.
