VASER Hi Def / 4D review

We are extremely proud to have received this email from one of our recent VASER 4D patients who had flown in from Los Angeles, USA to have his previous liposuction improved by Dr Ravi Jain. This patient had liposuction twice before but still couldn't see his six pack despite regular workouts.

Here is his complete email:

"Dear Sir/Madam,

I would like to thank Dr. Ravi for his excellent work during surgery and his post-operative attention to detail. His genuine interest in patient satisfaction starting from the pre-operative consultation to post-operative care shows his dedication to achieving what the patient wants. I am quite satisfied with the preliminary results and look forward to sharing the long-term results with you as my healing progresses. 

As for the post operative therapy, I would like to comment on Ms. Fortunata's work ethic and professionalism. Ms. Fortunata worked tirelessly during my therapy sessions to ensure that my pain is minimized. She takes pride in her work and aspires to bring it to perfection. She is without question very highly driven and extremely motivated. 

I would also like to comment on Ms. Fortunata's character. She conducts herself in a highly professional manner while maintaining a friendly attitude that ensures patient comfort. Her work brings the patient experience at Riverbanks to complete satisfaction.

Thank you all for such a pleasant experience. I look forward to keeping in touch and recommending you to other potential clients/patients."

Fortunata is one of our specialists post op therapists who has been specifically trained in after care therapy using ultrasound, manual lymphatic drainage and also pressuretherapy at Riverbanks. She is one of only two therapists in the UK who have received training in Colombia from the International Centre of Artistic Body Sculpting. The other therapist is Bethany, who also works at Riverbanks.

Post-Op Aftercare following Vaser 4D Sculpt

If you've researched Vaser Lipo treatments you may have come across some people mentioning the need for after care massages. To be honest, good lymphatic drainage is essential after all forms of lipo and most lymphoedema massage therapists are experienced in treating patients following cosmetic surgery. We have found those listed on MLD UK to be very good at treating our patients who travel from long distances for their regular vaser lipo.

The post-op care following Vaser 4D Sculpt though is much more specialised as it is designed to carefully nuture back the lymphatic system to full functionality following the precise body sculpting which has been carried out during the surgery. The programme has been personally designed by Colombian plastic surgeon, Dr Hoyos, the inventor of Hi def & 4D Sculpt.

Essentially the CARE protocol uses ultrasound therapy, manual lymphatic drainage and pressuretherapy to maximise your results and comfort. We recommend 20 sessions with a minimum of 10 sessions over 2 weeks.

Here is a video of one of Dr Jain's own post op sessions following his surgery: (This video does show patient discomfort and some blood)


Dr Jain is adamant that the VASER aftercare is critical to getting outstanding results and minimising unexpected complications following your surgery. So much so that he invested in his two therapists by sending them to Dr Hoyos's clinic in Colombia to receive the most intensive and up to date training available. Both of our therapists are the ONLY ones in the UK to be trained at Dr Hoyos' clinic in Bogota. By bringing these skills back to Riverbanks, we believe we have the most qualified service for bot surgical and post op care for Vaser 4D Sculpting in the UK.
