State-of-the-Art VASER Lipo

Only at Louisiana Center for Women’s Health

SUMMER IS HERE AND AS HOT AS IT is, you will surely find yourself at the pool, river or lake sometime soon. If you find that you are staring at imperfections when you slide your swimsuit on, we have the solution. This could be the summer you redefine your body and your mind!

Louisiana Center for Women’s Health has always been interested in helping people with such problems, improving their lives and enhancing their self-esteem. Liposuction may be the right solution.

We have been performing liposuction for several decades. Starting in the 70’s we began using the original liposuction procedure which was invented and popularized by a gynecologist in France. Through the years liposuction technology has advanced and improved.

When VASER liposuction became available, it was obvious it was a significant advancement and improvement, so we purchased the state-of-the-art technology. We are now using the second and latest generation of VASER technology. We have even trained surgeons from around the world on how to use this VASER.

When new technologies for fat reduction become available, we evaluate the manufacturer’s claims. Many of these claims don’t stand up to scrutiny. Some offer the patient little more than wishful thinking. This is especially true of various external freezing, radio frequency, or energy sources, which are non-invasive, but work poorly or perhaps not at all. Because they are non-invasive, they sound great, but they rarely live up to their expectations. Our best advice is to be careful when choosing the right liposuction procedure.

The big difference with VASER compared to other liposuction methods, is the melting of fat prior to removal. The VASER procedure uses a two-step process, the first step essentially melts the fat using a thin ultrasound probe which is inserted under the skin and into the fat layer. This probe uses high frequency and high energy sound to disrupt the fat cell wall, causing it to release its fat. The released fat is suctioned out of the body. It also probably kills the fat cell in the process, minimizing the future return of fat in this area.

The VASER is real liposuction. Fat is actually removed from the body. VASER does not depend on promises of ongoing fat loss over time, as some of the non-invasive devices promise.

The main differences between VASER and other conventional and non-conventional methods of liposuction are the following:

1.) The VASER procedure is performed in the office, so there is no expensive hospitalization required.

2.) The VASER administers its own local anesthesia, so you are awake during the procedure.

3.) The VASER is a minimally invasive procedure. The incisions used for fat removal are less than 1/4”.

4.) With VASER, healing is rapid and bruising is minimal.

5.) Finally, the VASER melts the fat prior to removal.

If you are interested in the VASER procedure, Louisiana Center for Women’s Health is the only clinic offering this procedure in this area. Please call us for an initial appointment and evaluation.
