Liposuction has been with us for almost 30 years.  The procedures continue to get better.  Newer technologies continue to make the procedure safer, faster,  easier and less traumatic. The third generation of ultrasonic liposuction, the VASER uses a vibrating wand to gently melt the fat cells and allow for easier removal.  VASER is and acronym for “Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy.” It is the process of removing excess fat with the use of ultrasound rather than the typical laser. By doing this Vaser procedures can remove more fat and take out more at different levels.  Thus a surgeon who is trained in VASER Hi Def Liposculpture can use the VASER to sculpt the tissues and reveal muscle anatomy.  In men this means removing love handles, potbellies and chest fat, and then defining abdominal and chest muscles. This means sculpting the chest to reveal the pectoral muscles, sculpting the abdominal area to bring out the abdominal muscles or “six pack” (rectus abdominis), the internal obliques and the serratus muscle. For women this means removing back, hip and abdominal fat, then defining the waist abdomen and buttock. This procedure can be done as part of a Mommy Makeover.  Dr. Kaczynski is committed to helping women who are unhappy with the effects of childbirth return their bodies to its prebaby form. When the vaser is combined with cold laser either before or after the surgery the results are even better.  The low-level light laser decreases discomfort and swelling and accelerates healing. With this combination of techniques, we can get amazing results previously impossible with any liposuction techniques that were used in the last 25 years.

Dr. Andrew Kaczynski of Advanced Concepts in Plastic Surgery is the only certified plastic surgeon north of Los Angeles all the way to Seattle Washington who has been certified to perform VASER Hi Def Liposculpture.
