On May 9th and 10th, 2025, the city of Düsseldorf, Germany, hosted the prestigious International VASER Meet the Experts Meeting. This was a gathering that brought together leading minds in the field of body contouring and aesthetic surgery. Among the distinguished speakers was Mr Reza Nassab, a renowned consultant plastic surgeon in Manchester and Cheshire, UK, known for his expertise in VASER liposuction and advanced body sculpting techniques.

What Is VASER Liposuction?

VASER (Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance) liposuction is an advanced body contouring procedure that uses ultrasound technology to break down fat cells before removal. Unlike traditional liposuction, VASER targets fat more precisely, minimising damage to surrounding tissues such as nerves and blood vessels. This results in less bruising, reduced recovery time, and smoother outcomes.

The technique is particularly effective for high-definition (Hi-Def) liposuction, where the goal is to sculpt and define muscles—such as the abdomen, chest, or arms—by removing fat with exceptional precision. The HD Lipo was pioneered by Dr Alfredo Hoyos from Columbia. Mr Reza Nassab spent time with Dr Hoyos learning VASER directly from the world leader in the field. VASER is also versatile, suitable for both large-volume fat removal and delicate areas like the chin or inner thighs.

Highlights from the 2025 VASER Meet the Experts Meeting

The 2025 VASER Meet the Experts Meeting focused on the latest innovations, safety protocols, and artistic techniques in ultrasound-assisted liposuction. The event featured a series of lectures, live demonstrations, and panel discussions, offering attendees a comprehensive overview of current best practices and emerging trends.

Key topics included:

• Advancements in Hi-Def Liposuction: Exploring new methods to enhance muscle definition and achieve natural-looking results.
• Safety in Gluteal Fat Grafting: Emphasising the importance of ultrasound guidance to prevent complications during Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) procedures.
• Patient Selection and Preoperative Planning: Discussing criteria for identifying suitable candidates and tailoring surgical plans to individual anatomy and goals.
• Postoperative Care and Recovery: Sharing strategies to optimise healing and maintain results, including the use of compression garments and lymphatic drainage techniques.

The meeting also provided a platform for surgeons to exchange experiences, discuss challenging cases, and collaborate on research initiatives aimed at further improving patient outcomes.
