Minimally Invasive Procedures
Most treatments, like sclerotherapy and endovenous ablation, are minimally invasive. Therefore, they require little recovery time and do not cause severe discomfort. Small incisions may be made to access the veins, but no actual surgery is involved. This allows people to return to regular activity quickly after treatment.
Prevents Complications
Reticular veins are usually harmless. However, if left untreated, they can lead to more severe conditions, such as varicose veins, leg swelling, skin damage, and leg ulcers. Addressing abnormal veins early may prevent these complications.
Enhances Blood Flow
Abnormal veins allow blood to pool and impair proper circulation in the legs. Removing the diseased tissue makes the body healthier and reduces many risks. Blood starts flowing properly through the remaining veins.
Relieves Symptoms
Reticular veins may cause aching, burning, itching, and fatigue in the legs. Treating them can relieve these uncomfortable symptoms, making people more active and happy.
Improves Appearance
Small bluish veins on the legs can cause self-consciousness. People may become concerned about their appearance and feel uncomfortable in certain situations. Luckily, our treatments can greatly improve the look of the legs and boost confidence.
Good Health
Liposuction patients should be in good overall health. Those with severe medical conditions, like uncontrolled diabetes, heart disease, or poor circulation, may not be eligible. Dr. Bailey evaluates each patient thoroughly during the liposuction consultation to rule out risks and ensure maximum safety.
Realistic Expectations
Candidates must have realistic expectations about the procedure and results. VASER liposculpture removes small areas of stubborn fat but cannot fix all figure flaws. Therefore, people must understand the limitations and potential outcomes of this procedure.
Skin Elasticity
The skin needs to be elastic for the best results. Flexible tissue retracts well and adjusts to the newly sculpted shape underneath. Older patients or those with less elasticity may not get as smooth results. However, we can address this problem with additional cosmetic surgery to tighten the skin.
Localized Fat Deposits
Good candidates have localized areas of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. Common treatment zones include the abdomen, thighs, hips, back, arms, and chin. VASER liposculpture can effectively remove isolated fat pockets.
Ideal Body Weight
Patients who are near their ideal body weight are good candidates for VASER liposculpture. This procedure is intended for targeted fat removal rather than significant slimming. Being at a stable weight allows for better contouring results.
