Viridian Medical are pleased to announce that they now offer VASER Ultrasonic Liposuction as part of their non-surgical programme.
The new VASER technology represents a dramatic breakthrough in the field of liposuction, as it is a less invasive procedure which produces optimum results.
The original forms of liposuction were performed with a manual sucker and a bit of “elbow grease” from the surgeon. This required a general anaesthetic and a short hospital stay, with a lot of recovery time at home and extensive, painful bruising. And despite all this, its results could be inconsistent and uneven, and leave the patient with a lot of loose skin that would require further surgery.
But at Viridian, those days are in the past with the introduction of the new VASER Ultrasonic Liposuction procedures.
VASER technology works by using ultrasonic waves to break down the problematic areas of fat. This is done by inserting probes into the fatty tissue through half-a-centimetre incisions. Once the ultrasonic waves have broken down the fat, it is then removed from the body via a suction method. Most procedures last for just under an hour.
VASER is commonly used to treat localised deposits of fat that are difficult to eliminate through diet and exercise alone. It should not be considered as a viable treatment for obesity.
Dr. Bea Brookes of Viridian Medical said of the procedure: “VASER is cutting edge technology which allows moderately-sized areas of stubborn fat to be removed in a one-hour session using a special local anesthetic.
“Its safety profile is high and down time is minimal. We provide this in the UK’s leading private clinic, with state of the art facilities performed by a senior consultant.”
Consultations are available at either the Guildford or Windsor offices, with the actual procedures taking place in the Guildford clinic, ideal for potential patients based in the south of England.
Prices for VASER treatment are according to the size of the area being treated, which varies between individuals.
