Ultrasonic Fat Reduction
Target unwanted fat gently and precisely with VASER LipoSelection from Sound Surgical Technologies. Ultrasound technology is transmitted through small probes between 2.9mm and 3.7mm wide. Special grooves in the probes transmit the waves to liquefy fat for easy removal via liposuction. “You do see results immediately,” says Patricia McGuire, MD. “The day after the procedure, patients take their dressings off to see flatter stomachs and smaller hips. I also see smoother skin retraction.” The versatility of the system allows you to treat delicate areas like the chin and neck as well as large areas like the chest and abdomen. Patients are able to return to work within days; final results peak after three to four months.
