VASER liposculpture in Paris offers you the chance to reshape your figure with precision. At our clinic in the 8ᵉ arrondissement, Dr. Delobaux applies the latest advanced liposuction techniques (microcannulas, VASER + Renuvion) to achieve natural muscle definition, without visible scarring.
Thanks to 100% personalized care, you benefit from high-definition remodeling that respects your morphology and optimizes skin retraction, for a lasting, natural and harmonious result.
What is liposculpture?
Definition and origin of the technique
Liposculpture is the scientific and artistic evolution of traditional liposuction. With VASER liposculpture, the aim is no longer simply to remove fatty deposits, but to reshape the entire anatomy and restore harmonious proportions.
Liposculpture is the evolution of liposuction. It is a cutting-edge surgical technique, offering results close to perfection. Introduced in the 1990s, liposculpture today relies on :
| Year | A major advance | Clinical impact |
| 1999 | Canules fines (< 3 mm) | Reduced tissue trauma, virtually invisible scars |
| 2005 | Ultrasound (VASER) | Selective fat liquefaction, nerve and vessel preservation, improved results |
| 2016 | Plasma energy (Renuvion) | Immediate skin retraction, firmer skin, improved results |
| 2017-2019 | Intraoperative ultrasound and intramuscular injections for regeneration | Millimetric planning of volumes to be removed and areas to be sculpted |
The difference between liposuction and liposculpture
| Criteria | Classic" liposuction | Liposculpture |
| Objective | Removal of excess fat, volume reduction | Volume reduction and precise sculpting of anatomical lines. Redefinition of the entire silhouette |
| Tools | Cannulas ≥ 4 mm, mechanical suction | Microchannels, VASER, Renuvion, Echoguidance |
| Results | Slimmer silhouette, sometimes unnatural results | Muscle definition, natural hollows and contours, natural silhouette, muscle regeneration |
| Indications | Localized overweight | Normoponderal patient seeking a figure close to perfection, with a refined allure. |
Who is this intervention for??
The profile of the ideal patient
- BMI between 20 and 28; stable weight for more than 6 months.
- Good skin elasticity: necessary to facilitate retraction after liposuction.
- Absence of uncontrolled metabolic pathology (diabetes, dyslipidemia).
- Intrinsic motivation and realistic expectations, assessed during a morpho-psychological consultation.
Specific indications
- Stubborn areas: abdomen, flanks, hips ("love handles"), back, thighs, knees, arms, double chin.
- Rib reshaping (Ribxcar): targeted reduction of the last floating ribs to hollow out the waistline, particularly in the case of rectangular or H-shaped morphology.
- Patients with significant weight variations or wishing to correct post-pregnancy/abdominoplasty irregularities.
How is VASER liposculpture performed??
The different stages of intervention
| Step | Details | Duration |
| 1. Preoperative assessment | Morphological analysis, subcutaneous ultrasound, 3D photos, medical assessment | 30 min. |
| 2. Standing anatomical marking | Identification of areas to be suctioned and preserved (shadow lines), liposculpture drawings | 20 min |
| 3. Anaesthesia | Locoregional tumescent or general monitored | - |
| 4. Tumescent infiltration | Adrenaline serum + anaesthetics | 15 min |
| 5. VASER emulsification | 36 kHz, power set to fat density | 10-20 min |
| 6. Microcannula suction | Débits < 20 mL/s pour respecter les septa fibreux | 30-120 min |
| 7.intramuscular fat reinjection (on request) | ||
| 8. Retraction with Renuvion (if required) | Helium gas + plasma energy 85 °C, 0.04 s/shot | 10-20 min |
| 9. Drains and sutures | Absorbable thread | 5 min |
| 10. Installation of a compression sleeve | Class II (20-30 mmHg) | 6-8 weeks |
Advanced techniques used
Plastic surgeons who offer high-definition liposculpture generally use advanced surgical techniques, such as :
- Microcannulas 2 to 4 mm: reduce blood loss (≤ 45 mL) and promote even skin texture.
- VASER: selective cavitation ultrasound, sparing collagen and lymphatic vessels.
- Renuvion (helium plasma): immediate contraction of connective tissue; ideal after age 40 or on sagging skin after pregnancy and weight changes.
- High-definition intramuscular lipofilling: controlled reinjection of fat to accentuate abdominal lines, pectorals, shoulders, arms and back or the gluteal contour (rounded buttocks) under ultrasound guidance.
Expected results and aesthetic benefits
Improved overall silhouette
The results of high-definition liposculpture are spectacular. A refined, perfectly defined figure, prominent muscles, localized curves...
Generally speaking, patients who have undergone liposculpture are very satisfied. An average reduction of 4 to 10 cm in waist circumference is observed at three/six months post-operatively, along with a harmonization of the overall proportions of the silhouette.
Enhancing remodelled areas
When it comes to defining specific areas of the body, HD liposculpture makes it possible to :
- Underline the iliac furrow ("V line") and define the obliques.
- More buttock projection after complementary lipostructure.
- Perfectly define all the abdominal muscles.

Liposculpture is a cosmetic procedure: you will not be reimbursed by the French social security system. Some premium mutual insurance companies reimburse the cost of accommodation (single room); a standard estimate will be given to you at the first consultation.
Medical contraindications
Before any procedure, a full biological check-up is carried out. Liposculpture is not recommended or should be postponed in the event of :
- Poorly balanced diabetes (HbA1c > 7.5%)
- Unstable cardiovascular pathology (angina, class III-IV heart failure)
- Troubles de la coagulation (INR > 1,5, plaquettes < 100 G/L)
- Active skin infection in the area to be treated
- BMI > 30 (weight management preferred)
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Autoimmune dermal diseases (lupus, scleroderma).
A specialist opinion may be required (cardiologist, endocrinologist) to secure the surgical procedure.
