Sound Surgical Technologies LLC Places 1,000th VASER Lipo System Amongst Strong Patient Demand

Posted on: Monday, 18 May 2009, 23:01 CDT

LOUISVILLE, Colo., May 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Despite the current economic recession, physician and patient demand for the VASER(R) Lipo body contouring procedure continues to accelerate at healthy rates. Sound Surgical Technologies LLC, creator of the VASER(R) Lipo System, placed its 1,000th system during the first quarter of 2009. Further, over 100,000 VASER procedures have been performed worldwide to date. Each month more than 10,000 patients visit the VASER.com website searching for a physician in their area. This is a testament to the successful results VASER Lipo provides.

"The VASER Lipo System is without a doubt the most versatile body contouring technology on the market," said Carter Morgan, Vice President of Worldwide Sales at Sound Surgical Technologies LLC. "VASER Lipo has become a trusted product in a heavily saturated body contouring market. With the VASER Lipo procedure, patients and physicians know they will get consistently excellent outcomes."

Sound Surgical Technologies placed its 1000th system with Dr. Tess Mauricio of Scripps Ranch Dermatology and Cosmetic Center in San Diego, CA.

"We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Mauricio to our list of key VASER Lipo physicians around the world," Carter Morgan adds.

Dr. Mauricio is a Board Certified Dermatologist specializing in laser treatments, liposculpture and non-invasive skin rejuvenation. She is a graduate of Stanford University School of Medicine and a Summa Cum Laude graduate of the University of California, San Diego.

"I was waiting for technology that was truly worth incorporating into our current liposuction practice. I was wary of the marketing hype that many of the new energy based liposuction technologies came with," says Dr. Mauricio. "VASER technology immediately seemed scientifically sound and proved to be the real deal."

Dr. Mauricio has trained and worked with world renowned leaders in the field of dermatology, and is an internationally acclaimed authority in cosmetic dermatology, body contouring, and laser treatments. She is a published author and to date has trained thousands of physicians worldwide from Beverly Hills to New York, London, and Asia. Dr. Mauricio is also one of the youngest women to ever hold the position of President of the San Diego Society for Dermatologic Surgery.

"I am excited to add VASER Lipo to my practice's minimally invasive and non-surgical body contouring offerings," adds Dr. Mauricio. "The VASER Lipo procedure minimizes trauma to vessels and nerves and results in significantly easier post-op recovery for patients. It gives me a broad range of contouring capabilities not found in any other system. I'm impressed with how little bruising, swelling and post-op pain patients experience with VASER compared with the older techniques. It is a safe and effective technology that delivers better results with less downtime. Any practice that offers liposuction will benefit from VASER technology."
