Post-Op Aftercare following Vaser 4D Sculpt

If you've researched Vaser Lipo treatments you may have come across some people mentioning the need for after care massages. To be honest, good lymphatic drainage is essential after all forms of lipo and most lymphoedema massage therapists are experienced in treating patients following cosmetic surgery. We have found those listed on MLD UK to be very good at treating our patients who travel from long distances for their regular vaser lipo.

The post-op care following Vaser 4D Sculpt though is much more specialised as it is designed to carefully nuture back the lymphatic system to full functionality following the precise body sculpting which has been carried out during the surgery. The programme has been personally designed by Colombian plastic surgeon, Dr Hoyos, the inventor of Hi def & 4D Sculpt.

Essentially the CARE protocol uses ultrasound therapy, manual lymphatic drainage and pressuretherapy to maximise your results and comfort. We recommend 20 sessions with a minimum of 10 sessions over 2 weeks.

Here is a video of one of Dr Jain's own post op sessions following his surgery: (This video does show patient discomfort and some blood)

Dr Jain is adamant that the VASER aftercare is critical to getting outstanding results and minimising unexpected complications following your surgery. So much so that he invested in his two therapists by sending them to Dr Hoyos's clinic in Colombia to receive the most intensive and up to date training available. Both of our therapists are the ONLY ones in the UK to be trained at Dr Hoyos' clinic in Bogota. By bringing these skills back to Riverbanks, we believe we have the most qualified service for bot surgical and post op care for Vaser 4D Sculpting in the UK.

How much time off work will I need after Vaser?

Typically after Vaser Liposelection the recovery is much quicker than with traditional liposuction, when like for like areas are treated. Most patients need about the first 2 days following their surgery off work as these are the days when there is the most drainage. After the 2nd day, the wounds tend to close up and the dressings can be discarded, leaving just the compression garments only needing to be worn.

Following a patient survey at Riverbanks Clinic, we identified that out of all the patients that had their Vaser on a Thursday, nearly 100% of them returned to work on the following Monday. By the Monday, only a few were still taking paracetamol as their painkiller, while the majority didn't need painkillers.
