What is Vibroliposuction (Vibro Lipo)
Vibroliposuction, often referred to as Vibro Lipo, is a modern body contouring technique that uses vibration to gently loosen fat before removal. It’s widely used across Europe — especially in Belgium — and is medically known as Power-Assisted Liposuction (PAL).
While the terms differ, the procedure is the same: both use a vibrating cannula to reduce trauma, improve precision, and allow for smoother fat extraction. Clinics may refer to it as “vibrolipo,” “vibrational liposuction,” or simply PAL.
Is Vibroliposuction different from PAL?
No — vibroliposuction is simply another name for PAL. The technique, device, and results are identical. The vibration-assisted cannula makes fat removal faster and gentler, with less bruising and a quicker recovery.
This technology is often used for:
- Treating localized fat (abdomen, flanks, thighs, male chest)
- Harvesting fat for transfer to the face, breasts, or buttocks
- Smoother results in areas with fibrous or dense fat
Why do some clinics say PAL and others say Vibrolipo?
Terminology often depends on country, clinic branding, or the surgeon’s preferred wording. In Belgium, you might see both terms used in clinic listings — but rest assured, they refer to the same technology.
