Can women have Vaser Hi Def?

Vaser Hi Def liposuction or even the more advanced Vaser 4D Sculpt, is not just for men. Women can also get sexy, hot bodies, we just recreate a different athletic look rather than a six pack. Six pack abs are a more masculine appearance so most women prefer a more streamlined abdomen with discreet diamond shape contours and shadows.

Abdomen treated only

Even though the abs are treated in a more gentle fashion than a male six pack, the female arms are treated in a more drastic fashion in that we tend to take away most of the fat over the triceps to create a less of a bingo wing with slight fashioning of the space between the deltoid and the biceps.

Female Vaser Lipo is the most popular treatment we perform. We can also lift buttocks by moving the fat from love handles to the buttocks creating a Colombian Butt Lift. The inner and outer thighs can be refashioned in order to sculpt a complete hour glass shape.

So when you think Vaser 4D Sculpt, think Hot Sexy Bod rather than just six pack abs!

Can I have Vaser Hi Def if I've already had liposuction?

Many of my patients at Riverbanks are patients who have previously had liposuction but now want a sculptured look rather than a flat, boxed shape. Others have had liposuction elsewhere, previously, and are not happy with their results so they have come to me to try and improve them. For many of these patients the only option is Vaser Hi Def or Vaser 4D Sculpting as the only layer of fat left behind is in the superficial layer, which is not usually amenable to traditional liposuction techniques.

When treating patients who have already had liposuction, it is important to wait at least a year from the previous surgery so that the tissues have stopped healing. There is often a degree of scar tissue (fibrosis) in the remaining fatty layers and this will make the operation more challenging and also slightly more bloody  than a first time case. The amount of definition achievable can vary between individuals but is generally only slight less than with a first time case. It depends on how much fat was left behind after the previous surgery.

The healing will be much longer though and aftercare sessions at the clinic are essential in order to facilitate the healing of the treated areas. It is important to stimulate the lymphatic drainage channels and encourage new vascularity of the treated areas and this is achieved with specialised aftercare at Riverbanks. I generally advise patients who had already had a liposuction and want high definition liposculpture to book in for 10-20 aftercare sessions over 4-6 weeks.

Your results will take a bit longer to show. You will see good changes immediately but the swelling will last for a few weeks and the first signs will show at 6 weeks. We will review you at 3 months, 6 months and 12 months post op.

Vaser 4D Sculpt to the arms

Many men & women prefer to have more defined arms allowing them to look better at the gym or just with short sleeves. There are subtle differences between the two sexes which need to be considered. Women prefer smaller arms with slight definition of the deltoids. The lower border of the upper arm should be straighter with slight curvature at each end, defining the triceps. It is key not to make the female arm too defined or bulky.

Men, on the other hand,  like bulkier biceps and triceps with well-defined deltoids. It is important not to shrink the size of the male upper arm. We can give the illusion of a bigger biceps by sculpting the fat around the biceps and the deltoid creating a horseshoe effect, often sought after at the gym. Care must be taken to compensate for the natural movement of the muscles and this is identified and marked during your pre-op examination. It is also possible to transfer some fat into your deltoids to further boost their volume.

Male Breast Reduction with Vaser 4D Sculpt

All of our vaser patients during 2011 requested to have their chests reduced in size with our Vaser 2.0 Lipo system. This was often in combination with treating other areas such as Vaser 4D, but for many reducing the size of their breasts was their primary concern.

Some of our men needed only sculpting while others required significant debulking of fatty breast tissue with some gland excision. The exact nature of your surgery will be discussed during your consultation with your doctor.

Vaser 4D allows the surgeon not only to debulk your chest and reduce it size but to also reshape your chest providing a more athletic shape. Athletic chests often have straighter lower sides and a straight edge towards the armpit. More feminine chests are rounded and fuller in the lower half of the breast. If one works out, the pectoral muscle will bulk up in the upper half of the breast rather than the lower half. It are these fine details which will be in the surgeons mind when he reshapes your breast during a Vaser 4D Sculpting procedure. In order to bulk up the pectoral muscles, fat may be moved from one part of your body to the pecs with Fat Transfer. After all, who has six pack abs without defined pecs?
