Liposuction & VASER Liposuction

Precision surgical fat removal by board-certified plastic surgeons, including VASER ultrasound-assisted liposuction for high-definition body sculpting and traditional liposuction for targeted fat reduction across multiple body areas.

Polaris Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery offers both traditional liposuction and VASER (Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance) liposuction as part of its body contouring programme. Traditional liposuction uses cannulas to physically dislodge and suction fat from targeted zones including the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, back, and neck. VASER liposuction adds an ultrasound energy step that emulsifies fat cells before extraction, enabling more precise sculpting with less trauma to surrounding connective tissue — making it particularly suitable for high-definition contouring of athletic physiques and areas requiring delicate technique such as the inner arms, medial thighs, and periumbilical zone. Patients undergo a comprehensive pre-operative assessment with one of the clinic's three consultant plastic surgeons to determine the appropriate technique, volume targets, and anaesthetic approach. Procedures are typically performed under general anaesthesia or sedation, with most patients discharged the same day. Post-operative compression garments are prescribed immediately after surgery and worn continuously for several weeks to optimise skin retraction and reduce fluid accumulation. VASER's precision advantage is particularly relevant in Singapore's competitive medical aesthetics landscape, where patients often seek athletic rather than merely 'slimmed' results. The clinic's FAMS-credentialled surgeons bring reconstructive training to aesthetic liposuction cases, ensuring tissue handling standards exceed those of non-specialist practitioners.
