Male Breast Reduction is the most effective treatment for treating gynaecomastia. Dr Ravi Jain uses a combination of VASER Lipo and the pull-through technique for dealing with fat, breast & glandular tissues.
This blog deals with many FAQ's his patients ask at consultation.
VASER Liposelection is a great option for reducing the size of the upper arms without the need for more extensive surgery. The VASER system is very selective at treating fat and reducing damage to surrounding tissues. Clinical studies have shown that VASER causes less blood loss compared to standard liposuction. The image on the left shows the emulsified fat collected from the patient below, showing virtually no blood loss.
For those women who are concerned about the size of their upper arms, we understand that you may choose clothes that hide your arms and that you long to wear sleeveless tops in the summer. You may have only thought that Brachioplasty was necessary which involves a long scar along the length of your upper arm. Well for most sufferers of these 'bingo wings', VASER Lipo is a great treatment choice.
There are only a couple of tiny scars (about 4-5mm across) and you won't feel a thing as the surgery will be performed with some local anaesthetic and mild sedation. Afterwards you will need to wear a compression sleeve on each arm for about 4-6 weeks and we recommend manual lymphatic drainage at least 2-3 times a week during that time to optimise your recovery and outcome.
Then you can enjoy results like these:
before VASER
after VASER

Vaser Hi Def liposuction or even the more advanced Vaser 4D Sculpt, is not just for men. Women can also get sexy, hot bodies, we just recreate a different athletic look rather than a six pack. Six pack abs are a more masculine appearance so most women prefer a more streamlined abdomen with discreet diamond shape contours and shadows.
Abdomen treated only
Even though the abs are treated in a more gentle fashion than a male six pack, the female arms are treated in a more drastic fashion in that we tend to take away most of the fat over the triceps to create a less of a bingo wing with slight fashioning of the space between the deltoid and the biceps.

Female Vaser Lipo is the most popular treatment we perform. We can also lift buttocks by moving the fat from love handles to the buttocks creating a Colombian Butt Lift. The inner and outer thighs can be refashioned in order to sculpt a complete hour glass shape.
So when you think Vaser 4D Sculpt, think Hot Sexy Bod rather than just six pack abs!
When we were asked to feature on an MTV documentary discussing the various options available to a young girl who is not happy in her own body, we were very concerned that the right message would be portrayed to her and the show's target audience. Liposuction is NOT a treatment for weight loss and should not be considered as a first option for any form of body contouring. However, for those who have honestly tried their best with diet & exercise and still find it difficult to shift those unwanted bulges, or show off their six packs, Vaser 4D Sculpting is a good, if not extreme option.
Sophie Kasaei at Riverbanks Clinic
Sophie Kasaei, star of MTV's Geordie Shores, created the documentary 'Get Thin or Die Tryin' especially for MTV in which she went on a journey to try and decided if liposuction was the right option for her. She spoke to her friends, people who have had liposuction with good results and also to one lady who had suffered horrific complications from a laser assisted liposuction. When Sophie visited Riverbanks, she met with myself, Dr Ravi Jain and my colleague Dr Alfredo Hoyos. We explained to her in the ins and outs of Vaser Liposuction and Vaser 4D Sculpting (not all of which were included in the final edit).
Sophie even got the chance to speak to one of our male patients who was about to have his 4D Sculpting procedure at the clinic. We dressed Sophie up in our brand new Riverbanks scrubs, and invited her into the operating room and watched Dr Jain carve six pack abs into the patient using the latest Vaser 4D Sculpting techniques with Dr Hoyos commentating.
I think Sophie (and the camera crew) did very well not to pass out as the procedure can be quite gory to the unaccustomed! Sophie gave a frank and honest overview of the surgery and we found her conclusions absolutely spot on. Sophie made the right decision for her. If she really wants the body she is after, then we would advise her to invest in a personal fitness & nutrition trainer for at least 6 months. If after that she wants an extra boost, then Vaser 4D maybe a good option.
