VASER Liposuction of Thighs
Excess fat in each thigh must be evaluated independently as most individuals present with variable sized and shaped thighs. Furthermore, the degree of fat excess in the medial versus the lateral thighs varies significantly. The medial thighs tend to possess fat in the superficial layer whereas the lateral thighs carry their fat in the deep layer. As such, VASER liposuction in the thighs requires administration of ultrasound in two separate layers.
Following the administration of ultrasound, liposuction should be performed only in the superficial plane whereas liposuction should be performed only in the deep plane. This differentiation in fat layer removal is also critical when you consider anatomic differences and contour goals.
