Manhattan, New York Plastic Surgeon Using New State-of –the-Art Liposuction Device: Vaser Liposuction
When New Yorkers Decide to Stop Sucking In and Start Sucking Out They Visit Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, Douglas M Senderoff, MD, FACS

New York, New York,(PRWEB) April 22, 2004 – Liposuction was the top plastic surgery procedure in 2003 with 384,626 procedures performed in the U.S. up from 176,863 in 1997 a 117% increase, according to The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. Liposuction permanently removes fat cells in areas such as the abdomen, waist, chest, hips, thighs and chin. The most popular liposuction procedure performed on men are the "love handles," and for women it's "saddlebags" or the "tummy pouch."

Traditional liposuction techniques for body contouring have included superwet liposuction, tumescent liposuction, and power assisted liposuction. These liposuction procedures do provide a permanent and immediate solution to eliminate stubborn unwanted fat deposits but do have limitations. So, when a new device for ultrasonic liposuction hit the market, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, Douglas M. Senderoff, MD, FACS, (one of New York’s most popular plastic surgeons) immediately incorporated the technique into his practice. “I make every effort to provide my patients with the latest technologies and cutting-edge techniques. I noticed that the Vaser technique resulted in substantially less bruising and faster recovery. I wanted to offer my patients the best treatment in New York,” remarks Dr. Senderoff.

The latest liposuction device is called “The Vaser ” and was developed by Sound Surgical Technologies LLC - the world leader in innovative ultrasonic technologies for aesthetic surgery. The Vaser selectively targets fat by using ultrasound energy while preserving structures such as blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissue. With Vaser liposuction patients experience much less pain during the procedure and experience less bruising and soreness postoperatively. The fat is removed more efficiently than with conventional liposuction because it is emulsified or turned into a liquid by the ultrasound before it is suctioned. “My patients are thrilled with Vaser Liposuction. The procedure is gentler and the recovery is quicker. In my opinion, Vaser liposuction will eventually become the industry standard,” notes Dr. Senderoff.
