Why Men Love VASER® Hi-Def Liposuction

VASER® Hi-Def Liposuction is a revolutionary technique that removes significant amounts of fat while minimizing damage to surrounding tissue. Utilizing ultrasound energy to emulsify fat cells, VASER lipo can remove fat deposits from even the most sensitive areas of the body, helping to produce a toned and chiseled appearance in areas like the abdomen, where fat tends to stubbornly accumulate in males.

If you are ready to optimize your physique, VASER High-Def Lipo may be precisely what you’ve been looking for. Use the contact form on this page or call our Houston office today to schedule a consultation and learn more.

Benefits of VASER Lipo

VASER uses ultrasonic energy to liquefy fat before removal. This serves multiple purposes, including:

  • Complete and permanent elimination of fat from the body
  • Reduced risks of bruising, swelling, and post-operative discomfort
  • Reduced chances of bleeding and incision irritation
  • Much faster recovery period
  • Reduced dangers of contour irregularities

With some liposuction techniques, small fat deposits can be left behind, leaving a dimpled or lumpy appearance in the treatment area. With VASER, fat is removed entirely from the frame, revealing underlying musculature and structure and restoring a masculine look to the body.

Do VASER Results Last Forever?

Results from VASER High-Def Lipo are permanent. When fat is removed from your body, it will not grow back. New fat can, however, accumulate if steps aren’t taken to maintain your liposuction results.

One of the things men tend to love most about VASER is its ability to inspire a more active and healthy lifestyle. Many men find that, following liposuction, they are compelled to take up more demanding and muscle-defining exercises. Naturally, this serves to improve and enhance results. However, enhancing definition is optional. Simply eating healthy and getting basic exercise is enough to maintain results for nearly everyone after VASER Lipo.

Dr. Ravi Somayazula is a board-certified plastic surgeon with years of experience helping men in and around Houston look their absolute best. If you are considering a body contouring procedure, he welcomes the opportunity to meet with you, assess your frame, and help you decide if VASER is the best fit for your needs.

Three Ways to Scare Away Fat

10/15/2022

Unwanted fat deposits detract from ideal definition. They create bulk where there shouldn’t be any bulk, obscuring natural curves and producing a heavier, toneless frame.

Wouldn’t it be convenient if Halloween decorations and stories about ghosts and ghouls could frighten those stubborn deposits of lumpy fat right out of your body? Then everyone with a few extra pounds would eagerly await October.

But, while a well-timed fright might make you “jump out of your skin,” it can’t make fat do the same, magically disappearing before your very eyes. Thankfully, at Body by Ravi Plastic Surgery and Aesthetics, we can make fat disappear – without magic or terror – and are pleased to offer several safe and effective options to help sculpt and tone nearly every area of your body.

VASER® High-Definition Liposuction

Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ravi Somayazula utilizes VASER High-Definition Liposuction to remove diet and exercise-resistant fat from the body. An advanced liposuction technique, VASER uses ultrasound energy to emulsify fat deposits, making it possible to remove unwanted fat entirely.

Not only does VASER allow for the removal of more significant amounts of fat, but it does so without harming surrounding tissue, muscles, and nerves, helping to reduce recovery time, protect your comfort, and improve final results.

Evolve Body Contouring

Surgical options are perfect for some, but not the best choice for every need. Knowing this, we are pleased to offer the Evolve system for hands-free, non-invasive body contouring. The Evolve system utilizes radiofrequency energy (RF) and electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) to melt fat, reduce cellulite, tighten the skin, and improve muscle definition.

Completely customizable, the Evolve system can be used to address a single issue, such as unwanted fat deposits, or a range of problems throughout the body. And, because it’s non-surgical, it does not come with incisions, surgical risks, or a lengthy recovery period.

Kybella®

If a double chin is your primary concern, Kybella may offer the best solution. The first and only injectable treatment for submental fat, Kybella uses an enzyme naturally produced by the body to destroy fat cells underneath the chin permanently.

Kybella requires no downtime, comes with minimal bruising, and offers reliable and predictable results. It can safely be used alone or with other non-surgical options to restore facial definition and create a significantly more youthful appearance.

Which Option is Right for You?

If you are unhappy with how excess fat has impacted your body, you can’t rely on specters or goblins to scare it away. You can rely on us.

Dr. Ravi Somayazula and Dr. Swapna Gopathi welcome the opportunity to meet with you, listen to your concerns, and help you choose the least frightening ways to achieve your goals.

Liposuction is used to target and eliminate stubborn deposits of fat from the body. Introduced to the United States in 1982, traditional methods of liposuction, while effective, also have the potential to cause trauma to surrounding muscle and tissue. Traditional liposuction may also fail to remove all of the fat from the treatment area which can create an uneven, lumpy, or dimpled appearance.

Five Procedures You Can Have as Part of Your Mommy Makeover

09/09/2021

Mommy makeover surgery is designed to address those areas most commonly impacted by pregnancy and nursing. Because pregnancy can have different effects on different women, it is important that each Mommy Makeover procedure be customized to meet the specific needs of the individual.  Also keep in mind that you do not have to have been pregnant or nursing to have a Mommy Makeover, any person who had more than one body area they are working on qualifies for a Mommy Makeover.

When you choose Body by Ravi Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics for your procedure, our board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Ravi Somayazula, will take time to understand your desires and fully assess your areas of concern before recommending which procedures will be most suitable for your needs.

Combining Procedures

While each mommy makeover surgery is customized, some procedures are more common than others. Five of the most common are:

  • Breast Augmentation. This procedure uses implants to restore volume to the breasts. Dr. Ravi also offers Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation for women who would prefer to avoid implants.
  • Breast Lift. This procedure addresses sagging breast tissue and nipple displacement, helping to restore a perky and ideally positioned breast mound. This can be performed with or without breast implants.
  • Liposuction. With liposuction, Dr. Ravi can remove stubborn deposits of fat from the thighs, hips, low back, abdomen, arms, and other areas holding weight from pregnancy. We offer the latest liposuction technique, including VASER liposuction to meet the specific needs of each individual
  • Abdominoplasty. Tummy tuck surgery is used to eliminate excess skin around the belly. It can also be used to trim the waist and reattach abdominal muscles that have become separated due to pregnancy
  • Arm Lift. Brachioplasty removes sagging skin and excess fat from the underside of the arm, helping to restore both form and comfort to the upper arms

In addition to these procedures, some Mommy Makeover surgeries can include other body procedures such as a Thigh Lift to remove excess skin from the upper legs, a Brazilian Buttock Lift to improve symmetry and restore volume in the buttocks, Labiaplasty for improved comfort in the vaginal area, and more.

Vaser Liposuction vs Traditional Liposuction in Houston,TX

04/15/2020

Liposuction is one of the most commonly performed cosmetic procedures in plastic surgery. Traditional methods of liposuction include using a specific cannula (long, hollow tube) to aspirate fat after infiltration of a wetting solution.  Wetting solution contains saline and lidocaine, which is an analgesic.  Traditional Liposuction methods allow surgeons to remove adipocytes (fat cells) and debulk the multiple layers of fat between the skin and the underlying fascia (connective tissue). This requires a certain amount of manual force that needs to be exerted on the part of the surgeon to extract the fat. Continue reading Vaser Liposuction vs Traditional Liposuction in Houston,TX
