The VASER Lipo System is a third-generation internal ultrasound-assistedlipoplasty device manufactured by Sound Surgical Technologies LLC inLouisville, Colorado. This technology enables physicians to precisely emulsifyfat cells in the body while preserving important tissues like nerves, bloodvessels, and collagen. As a result, VASER Lipo significantly reduces bloodloss, and patients experience minimal pain and rapid recovery.
"We're absolutely thrilled with the results of the study," said SoundSurgical Technologies CEO Dan Goldberger. "VASER Lipo already has several welldocumented clinical advantages, but this particular scientific study adds newlevels of credibility to the benefits of VASER technology over traditionalmethods," concluded Goldberger.
