VASER Lipo on Abdomen

Abdomen (Beer Belly, Spare Tire, Muffin Top, Belly Fat)

Target Zone: Stubborn, sizeable and bulging fat deposits around the abdomen

Solution: Vaser Liposuction, Micro Liposuction, Traditional liposuction 

If your stomach area makes you self-conscious then Liposuction can be an effective solution. Liposuction is best performed on patients who are at their ideal weight but are struggling to loose belly fat with diet and exercise alone.

If your problem is excess fat deposits rather than sagging skin then liposuction can offer remarkable belly fat removal results resulting in a more toned and defined stomach. If sagging skin is also a problem then a tummy tuck procedure may be more suitable.

Abdominal Liposuction

Vaser Liposuction

Vaser Lipo is a body contouring procedure performed mainly under local anaesthetic with sedation. During the treatment tumescent fluid is injected to help separate fat from the connective tissue surrounding the fat cells – limiting disruption, bruising and swelling in the area. After this, a very small incision is made and a Vaser probe is inserted. This emits ultrasound energy to shake and liquefy the fat cells before they are removed by small tubes through liposuction.

Micro Lipo

Micro Lipo is a minimally invasive liposuction technique that uses small 0.3mm – 3mm microcannulas to extract the fat. The technique can remove up to 3.5 litres of fat making ideal for targeting localised belly fat. Diluted local anaesthesia is injected into the fat causing the stomach to become swollen and firm. The swelling helps separate the fat cells from the other surrounding tissue. Fat is then removed from the abdomen using microcannulas.

Traditional Liposuction

Traditional liposuction is usually performed under general anaesthetic as it is usually reserved for treating larger or multiple areas of the body. The areas being treated are injected with a solution containing anaesthetic and medication, to reduce blood loss, bruising and swelling. Fat cells are then broken up using high-frequency vibrations, a weak laser pulse or a high-pressure water jet depending on the technique being used by the surgeon. A small incision is made in the targeted areas and a suction tube attached to a vacuum machine is inserted. The surgeon will move the suction tube in a back and forth motion to help loosen excess fat in the areas being treated and suck it out.

Stomach Lipo Recovery

Abdominal liposuction is walk-in, walk-out procedure meaning that, after you’ve had time to recover and been given full guidelines to follow during recovery, you can return home the same day. Liposuction patients usually require drains for around 5 days to help aid recovery and reduce swelling. A compression garment will also need to be worn for around 6 weeks.

You may be advised to undergo MLD Massage or Body Ballancer as part of your recovery process, which we’ll advise you on and guide you through.
