Is vaser liposuction an outpatient procedure?

Vaser liposuction is an outpatient procedure. You are still put to sleep while the process is going on and you must wear the girdle afterwards, but you can go home the same day as long as there are no complications. In the United Kingdom most vaser liposuction procedures are performed under local anaesthetic and sedation. It is important that you consult an experienced Vaser liposuction Doctor. Doctors undertaking Vaser have to undergo special training on the machine prior to accepting Patients. If you request a general anaesthetic then this maybe an option but expect to pay more for this as the hospital costs are increased when you stay overnight in hospital. The concept of vaser liposuction is that the procedure is gentler on tissues than traditional liposuction, so most Patients tend to tolerate the procedure well under local anaesthetic and sedation.
