Body Procedure
VASER liposuction is an ultrasound-assisted liposuction option used in selected body contouring plans. At Peak Plastic Surgery Center, it is presented as one possible tool, not a universal upgrade, and is chosen only when it fits the patient's anatomy, skin quality, and contour goals.

Candidates may want refined contouring for localized fat and are evaluated for skin elasticity, treatment areas, and realistic expectations. Every recommendation is confirmed during a private consultation in Denver after health history, anatomy, goals, timing, and recovery expectations are reviewed.

VASER uses ultrasound energy as part of the fat-removal process before contouring with liposuction. Dr. Barker reviews whether standard or VASER-assisted planning is appropriate.
Recovery includes compression, swelling management, and gradual activity return. Treated areas and combined procedures influence downtime.
Cost depends on the number of areas, time, technology use, and whether additional procedures are included.
