Ultrasound-assisted liposuction (VASER) probe

Metal probe that emits ultrasonic vibration at a resonant frequency to selectively emulsify/liquefy adipose tissue in situ, sparing vessels and nerves, before a separate suction cannula removes it.

How it is used

Body-contouring/high-definition liposculpture procedures, as an energy-based pre-treatment step, distinct from the already-catalogued passive suction cannula.
