What is the Recovery Time of Vaser Liposuction?
In the past, liposuction would come with heavy downtime, taking weeks or even months to fully recover from the pain and swelling because of the procedure. However, at Athenix we employ an advanced form of liposuction named VASER Liposuction to significantly reduce the recovery time.
With VASER, you can expect to return to your normal routine within a few days, making this form of liposuction ideal for busy people.
What to Expect from the Vaser Liposuction Procedure
With the help of a local anesthetic, your treatment area will be injected with a solution to minimize bruising and bleeding. Next, VASER lipo comes into play and delivers a minimal level of ultrasonic waves that are specifically targeted to emulsify or liquefy your fat cells.
Specially designed micro-cannulas are then used to remove the emulsified fluids without affecting the tissue matrix. Once completed, the volume and youth of your hands, face and other body parts are restored through natural fat transfer.
The VASER liposuction technique will bring you smooth contours without much surgical effort, which in turn leads to a faster recovery. However, if you’re thinking that VASER liposuction is not for you, think again as a recent survey has revealed the following benefits of this revolutionary liposuction method over traditional:
- Decreased number of re-treatments
- Improved skin retraction
- Fast recovery
- Smooth contours in treated areas of the body
- Minimal bruising and pain
The Recovery Phase
When it comes to recovery, you will be able to recover much quicker than traditional liposuction as there is minimal surgical effort. But factors such as the number of treated areas and your overall health also play crucial roles in the exact length of recovery after VASER liposuction.
Most patients feel like themselves within a few days, but recovery time varies from patient to patient as well as size and number of areas treated. To be on the safe side, we always recommend waiting a few weeks before you resume intense athletic activity. It is vital to schedule follow-up visits with your doctor to ensure your body recovers smoothly.
Recovery Recommendations
Even if you’re at your ideal weight, various body parts that are unresponsive to exercise may be contoured by this procedure. As a result, you may achieve the physique you have always longed for.
However, it does not necessarily mean that you call it quits on exercise. It’s important you remember that exercise and proper diet goes hand in hand with surgery if you wish to achieve and maintain your desired figure.
