HILLS, CA-- The VASER, a revolutionary ultrasound liposuction
procedure cuts surgery time, decreases tissue trauma, gives
better results, creates less blood loss, less post-operative
bruising, faster recovery time and is safer for patients.
The SoundVASER System, commonly referred to as the
VASER, is being hailed by the plastic surgery community
as the ultimate in safety for modern day liposuction.
The VAL procedure has 3 steps:
-
Infusion, which is faster and safer than current
technology.
-
VASER for selective pre-emulsification of fatty tissues.
-
Aspiration of the emulsion with the VentX aspiration
cannulae, a special vented tube which has been scientifically
designed to minimize suction trauma and speed up the
aspiration process.
This is added safety for the patient resulting in shorter
surgery time, less anesthesia, decreased overall tissue
trauma, less post-operative bruising and swelling and smoother
contours.
The surgeon's advantage using the VASER over current methods
are that it requires less physical effort. The VASER
makes it significantly easier to pass the probe through
the tissues, saving wear and tear on the surgeon's arm.
When the fatty tissues have been emulsified it is
also much easier to pass the suction cannula through the
tissues during the aspiration phase. Thus, it shortens the
procedure time by pre-emulsifying the fatty tissues, so
then the surgery time required to aspirate the tissues
is reduced. This gives a much more precise sculpting capability
since the surgeon can spend more time contouring and less
time separating the fat from the tissue. Dr. Richard Ellenbogen
has been trained on the VASER and has performed more VASER
treatments than anyone in the United States. The SoundVASER
System is the next generation beyond the existing UAL (ultrasound-assisted
lipoplasty) technology. The VASER uses smaller incisions,
pulsed or continuous energy delivery, and highly efficient
emulsifying probes that couple vibrations from all the sides
of the probes rather than from only the front tip. This
last feature greatly enhances the efficiency and safety
of the technology. |
