VASER Liposuction in NYC
What is VASER Liposuction?
VASER Liposuction (Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance) is an advanced fat removal procedure that uses ultrasound technology to selectively target stubborn fat deposits while preserving surrounding tissues. Unlike traditional liposuction, VASER lipo gently breaks down fat cells before removal, leading to a smoother, more sculpted appearance with minimal downtime.
VASER Lipo is particularly effective for high-definition body contouring, allowing for precise sculpting of areas such as the abdomen, arms, thighs, back, neck, and chin. It’s also the preferred choice for athletes and individuals seeking enhanced muscle definition through Hi-Def Lipo and 4D Liposculpture.

VASER Liposuction Process – How It Works
VASER liposuction, also called VASERlipo, is an advanced fat removal procedure that uses ultrasound waves to break down fat cells before they are gently suctioned out. Unlike traditional liposuction, which tears through fat and connective tissues, VASER liposuction specifically targets fat cells, reducing trauma to surrounding areas for a faster recovery and smoother results.
Step-by-Step VASER Liposuction Procedure
Consultation & Custom Treatment Plan
The surgeon evaluates your problem areas, skin elasticity, and overall health.
A personalized liposuction plan is created, considering areas like the abdomen, arms, thighs, back, or chest.
Tumescent Anesthesia Application
A special anesthetic solution is injected into the targeted fat layers to numb the area, minimize bleeding, and make fat removal easier.
Ultrasound Energy to Liquefy Fat Cells
The VASER probe emits ultrasound waves, which break apart stubborn fat while leaving nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissues intact.
Fat Removal & Sculpting
A small cannula is inserted to gently suction out liquefied fat, allowing for high-definition body contouring.
The surgeon shapes and sculpts the area for a more defined, athletic look.
Compression Garment & Recovery
Patients wear a compression garment to reduce swelling and help the skin retract.
Most patients can return to light activities within 2-3 days and resume full workouts in 2-4 weeks
Why Choose Vaser Lipo?
Less Trauma & Faster Recovery: Vaser lipo minimizes damage to surrounding tissues, resulting in less bruising and a quicker recovery.
Enhanced Definition: Helps create natural muscle definition and sculpted contours, making it ideal for high-definition body sculpting.
Better Skin Retraction: The ultrasound energy stimulates collagen production, which can lead to tighter skin after fat removal.
Ideal for Delicate Areas: Vaser lipo is highly effective in areas with fibrous fat, such as the chest (for gynecomastia treatment), arms, and back.
Fat Transfer Options: Removed fat can be purified and transferred to enhance other areas like the buttocks, breasts, or face.

Is Liposuction Painful?
Most patients experience mild to moderate discomfort in the first few days following surgery, but this is easily managed with prescribed pain medication.
To further minimize post-operative pain, Dr. Itay Wiser utilizes an advanced nerve block technique during surgery. This temporarily numbs the surgical area, significantly reducing discomfort for the first 24-48 hours after the procedure. Patients who receive a nerve block often report a smoother, more comfortable recovery with less reliance on pain medication.
📌 Dr. Wiser’s focus on patient comfort ensures that you experience the easiest and most pain-free recovery possible.
