VASER® Hi Def Liposculpture

VASER® Hi Def Liposculpture creates a sculpted, athletic appearance by improving the contours of the body and the definition of the underlying musculature. It involves precisely performed, deep and superficial VASER® Hi Def Liposculpture around muscle groups in the abdomen, chest, sides, back, arms, and legs.  To view more extensive gallery of VASER ® Hi Def results please visit our photo gallery. 

                                 

VASER® Hi Def LipoSculpture embodies the ultimate understanding of how superficial anatomy influences external appearance. VASER® Hi Def Liposculpture was developed through the study of "surface anatomy" of human musculature much as an artist would view the human form. VASER® Hi Def Liposculpture enhances the importance of contributions made to the aesthetics of human form by both the superficial and deep fat layers when these layers are properly proportioned both between and over the muscle groups. What makes VASER® Hi Def Liposculpture different is that we use the underlying structures as a guide to contrast the various structures that make up the 3-dimensional body contour.

VASER® Hi Def Liposculpture was developed through the study of art and anatomy of the human body, as an artistic treatment of the human form to create not only a trim figure, but also highly developed musculature. VASER® Hi Def Liposculpture is a 3-dimensional approach, taking into account the contributions made by other muscle groups to integrate the entire torso, back and legs. 

           

VASER® Hi-Def Liposculpture was originally developed by Dr. Alfredo Hoyos of Colombia in 2002, and brought to the U.S. and perfected by Colorado surgeon Dr. John Millard since 2005. Recognizing the importance of this sophisticated method of body sculpting for his clientele, Dr. Edwin Ishoo who has performed hundreds of Smartlipo® and  VASER® Liposelection procedures with great results, traveled to the  Advanced Body Sculpting Institute in Colorado and received extensive hands-on training in this advanced technique with Dr. Millard. To date, fewer than 100 surgeons have been trained in the world, with only a handful practicing in the U.S. Dr. Ishoo is the first and only surgeon qualified to perform the VASER® Hi Def Liposculpture in New England. The VASER® ultrasound technology combined with an aesthetic appreciation for the human anatomy and an experienced liposuction surgeon allows for spectacular results to which nothing else even comes close. The success of VASER® Hi Def requires that the surgeon have well-trained hands and an artful eye.

Ideal candidates:

Since VASER® Hi Def Liposculpture is designed to be a sculpting procedure rather than a debulking technique, the appropriate candidate is the person who has good muscle tone without excessive amounts of fat or lax skin. The majority of the people who undergo this procedure work out three to five times a week. However, they may fail to achieve the desired muscle definition because that depends on the presence of a very low level of total body fat, about 3 percent and other genetic factors. 

VASER® Hi Def Liposculpture is an outpatient procedure that may take up to six hours depending upon size and number of treatment areas. Patients can return to work in 7 - 10 days. They can resume a moderate exercise program in 2 weeks with advancement to hard workouts by 4th week. Postoperative discomfort varies according to each patient but can be controlled with mild analgesics.

Specialized Post-Lipo Care:

Each patient is required to commit to undergo post-lipo care therapy for the first 7-10 days and may require additional treatment based the individual's healing progress. The post-lipo care is an essential component of the VASER Hi Def procedure and outcome.

Post-Lipo CARE is a therapeutic method performed by our trained therapist Noemi Padilla and it is used after surgery to effectively reduce swelling, edema, bruising, pain, post-operative stress and other normal conditions associated with cosmetic surgery recovery. This method promotes discharge of lymphatic congestion and diminishes undesired fibrosis after liposuction (appearance of indentations in the skin), improves scarring and enhances the immune system, while reducing recovery time and provides a superior surgical outcome. Other benefits: Increase mobility and flexibility, enhance blood circulation and stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system (relaxation effect).

Cosmetic outcomes:

The first evidence of the improved muscle definition can be seen at about 2 to 3 weeks when the post procedural swelling has substantially resolved. By two months, the appearance may be close to maximum in the morning but may be less optimal as the day progresses due to the onset of swelling. Final results are seen at four months or after.
