North Coast Laser Aesthetics & Liposuction, Inc., and LipoSelection by VASER Lipo: Helping Men and Women Reduce Unwanted Fat Safely and Effectively (1 of 2)
As President of North Coast Laser Aesthetics & Liposuction, I strive to provide the best cosmetic treatment options to my clients throughout northern and central Ohio. In addition to offering top-of-the-line laser skin-care services and cosmetic injectables, my clinic locations administer two types of liposuction technologies, including the patented LipoSelection from VASER Lipo.
VASER’s LipoSelection technology works by using high-frequency sound waves to gently and selectively break apart areas of unwanted fat. The entire process begins with an injection of specially formulated saline solution into the area to receive treatment. This solution, known as tumescent fluid, acts as a local anesthetic and also shrinks any local blood vessels while simultaneously expanding the target fat cells, making them easier to remove. In step two, my cosmetic medical team will make small incisions near target areas and insert thin probes into these openings. Once inside, the probes send out ultrasonic frequencies into the surrounding tissue, shaking loose fat cells while leaving nerves, connective tissues, and blood vessels unharmed. Gentle suction then removes the loose fat cells and the tumescent fluid.
