How is LipoSelection only by VASER different from UltraSculpt™ /other UAL?
Although the technologies used to perform both procedures employ ultrasonic energy, there are significant differences. Other ultrasound platforms utilize either hollow probes that fragment fat while simultaneously removing protective fluid (which can increase the risk of thermal damage such as burns), or smooth probes that focus all of the energy at the tip (which can damage the tissue matrix). ONLY the LipoSelection procedure utilizes patented VASER Technology to efficiently break up fat with diffused energy via small, solid grooved probes and then remove liquefied fat with massage and cannulae designed with minimal tissue trauma in mind. The VASER platform allows for up to 50% reduction of applied power compared to UAL devices. An independent peer-reviewed published study reported that patients treated with VASER Technology experienced none of the complications common to UAL as reported in medical literature (such as burns, prolonged swelling, abnormal sensation or skin cell degradat
