Vaser Hi-Def Liposuction

The Private Clinic was one of the UK’s first aesthetic centres to introduce VASER Hi-Def; a pioneering body contouring treatment to sculpt and define muscles for an athletic result.

We are proud to work with one of the UK’s most respected pioneers of the method, Vaser Liposuction Surgeons Dr Dennis Wolf who works from our London Harley Street clinic and Mr Michael Mouzakis, Plastic Surgeon and Vaser Lipo Total Definer Surgeon who consults from London Harley Street, Northampton and Birmingham but virtual consultations are available for patients in locations such as Leeds and Manchester too.

What is VASER Hi-Def and How does it work?

Assisted High Definition LipoSculpture, or VASER Hi Def is an advanced body sculpting technique that creates an athletic, sculpted appearance. It works through the removal of both superficial and deep fat that surrounds muscle groups to enhance the visibility of underlying toning and musculature. 

The method can be performed on multiple body areas, but the most popular include:

What happens during the VASER Hi-Def treatment procedure?

Firstly, local anaesthetic is administered to the chosen area(s) to numb the site. A VASER probe, which is around 3-mm in diameter, then emits an ultrasonic fat-specific wave, which breaks down the fat cells.

The Doctor is then able to sculpt and define the underlying muscles through a gentle suction process which causes minimum damage to surrounding tissues which causes minimum damage to surrounding tissues.

How long after VASER Hi-Def do you see results?

Because muscle structures are chiselled and the underlying musculature is made to be more visible and well defined, the results of VASER Hi-Def procedure are highly defined and sculpted. The treatment is often chosen to create strong-looking pectorals, defined upper arms, demarcated abdominal flanks, an athletic six pack or a strong, defined upper and lower back.

The results of your VASER Hi-Def Lipo sculpturing are usually best seen after a couple of weeks. We may advise for you to undertake a course of MLD Massage to aid your vaser hi def recovery, though this will be discussed fully prior to and after treatment. We offer  Body Ballancer® treatments in some of our clinics which we recommend a course of to help reduce swelling caused by inflammation, bring healthy oxygenated blood to the upper dermal layers of the skin and encourage overall scar tissue repair.

Your treated areas should retain their sculptured appearance for as long as you remain the same weight.

Meet our Surgeons

The VASER Hi-Def technique requires extensive experience and well-practised skill in VASER treatments. What distinguishes this procedure is its ability to chisel out prominent muscles including the pecs, lats, and obliques.

This procedure is carried out under local anaesthetic and the patient is sedated. Every surgical procedure presents risks and complications and those will be discussed during your consultation. Any risk associated to anaesthesia will also be discussed before your surgery.

There are very few UK clinics certified in VASER Hi-Def, and our Medical Expert is highly trained and experienced in the procedure with proven results and countless recommendations.

Mr Michael Mouzakis is one of only ten definer surgeons qualified and working in the UK. Mr Mouzkakis undertook the Total Definer Masterclass with a world-leader in body contouring surgery. Mr Mouzakis also undertook training for high def liposuction where he was able to enhance his skills from the plastic surgeon who created the Vaser High Definition Liposculpture technique.

Dr Dennis Wolf has performed thousands of minimally invasive vaser liposuction procedures and VASER High Definition procedures with The Private Clinic.  Dr Wolf is amongst the UK’s most experienced doctors in standard VASER, VASER Mid Definition and VASER High Definition.
