See Our Amazing High Definition Change

See our amazing high definition change when two fat layers come out, not one. High definition liposuction uses VASER ultrasound to emulsify fat and, when the skin needs it, Renuvion J Plasma. The deep layer lies on the muscle. The superficial layer extends toward the skin. A subdermal layer sits just under the skin. Traditional liposuction, on this account, does not clear those superficial planes, so the muscle contour stays hidden.

See our amazing high definition outline only if the work is also circumferential, the 360 pass. Fat is removed around the torso so the soft tissue can redrape. The same pass is what makes abdominal etching possible: the gulleys between muscle bellies stay visible only if liquefied fat does not collect in them. Lymphatic massage is how that residual liquid is drained. Etching without that drainage is how the outline is lost.

The six photographs above are the areas this operation is asked to change: the arm, the abdomen, the back, the buttock, the waist, and a revision. Each one is a result of the same choice, how much fat sits in the deep and superficial layers and whether the skin will retract. A revision photograph means an earlier liposuction left a surface that has to be re-planned. It is not a claim that every irregularity is the same problem. The garment, the foam inlay, and the early lymphatic massage are what keep that fresh surface from filling with fluid before the collagen has shortened. Patients are asked to hold the weight they already live at, because a later gain puts fat back in a pattern the operation did not design.

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons describes liposuction as removal of diet-resistant fat with a cannula. That is the fat-removal half of this operation. The skin decision is separate and comes from the redundancy, not from a second device recipe.

The Body Scale and the Skin Choice

The high definition liposuction body scale gives a starting score out of 10 at the consultation. The aim is a result near 9 or 10, which the scale calls a true high definition result. The rows are the plan. A 7 or 8, minimal to moderate fat with tight skin and excellent texture, is VASER only. A 5 to 7, that same fat with minimally loose skin and good texture, adds Renuvion, which heats collagen in and under the skin after the fat is cleared off it. A 4 or 5, moderate to severe fat with moderate loose skin and a localized texture problem, adds a mini tuck. A 2 to 4, severe redundancy and diffusely poor texture, is staged: a full tuck first, then VASER.

A consultation starts with the medical history, then an inventory of where the fat sits, then the reason ultrasonic liposuction is chosen over standard liposuction or laser liposuction. For men the priority is often abdominal etching, a chiseled abdomen, a fuller chest, and removal of the love handles so the back reads as a V. For women the priority is a lean abdomen, an exaggerated waist, and a larger difference between the lower back and the buttock. See our amazing high definition difference in those two plans: the same VASER removal, a different outline.

The operation is elimination of excess fat and redundant skin over the abdomen, flanks, back, waist, breasts, arms, medial thighs, lateral thighs, and neck. It takes 1 to 6 hours, depending on the number of areas, the fat, and the skin. Anesthesia is general, because scraping fat off the muscle meets the sensory nerves, which are densest at the muscle. The room is an outpatient suite or a hospital operating room. Patients wake in a customized compression garment with a foam inlay, worn a minimum of two weeks. The foam is for pain, swelling, and bruising.

Bruising, Swelling, and the Risks

Bruising can follow any liposuction because the fat layer contains vessels. VASER is the reason given for less trauma to vessels and nerves. The foam garment adds light pressure so the vessels ooze less. Swelling can last up to 3 months if lymphatic drainage or nutrition is poor. Massage, body wraps, and external ultrasound or radiofrequency in the first 10 days are the measures named to avoid that. Protein intake is 150 grams a day, including shakes if meals fall short, because albumin is the reason given for vessels that do not leak.

A seroma is plasma in a pocket where soft tissue was elevated, tied to a low blood count and low protein. It can need several office aspirations. The massages are also how those pockets are found.

Fat embolus is fat that enters a vein and can travel to the heart or lungs. The protections named here are knowing where the large vessels are, using a portable ultrasound so the cannula stays off them, and not grafting fat into muscles that sit next to large vessels. Skin compromise is a greater concern in diabetes or immune deficiency, and in poor nutrition. Those problems are corrected before surgery when they can be. If the skin looks compromised during the operation, liposuction in that area is less aggressive, and nitro paste is applied to increase blood flow.

Recovery is often 1 to 2 weeks and depends on pain tolerance. Full gym activity is encouraged by 2 to 3 weeks when only VASER was done. Work is between ten days and two weeks in that case. If a tuck was added, work waits 2 to 3 weeks and the gym waits 3 to 4 weeks. The result is kept by holding the weight. The comfort weight is the weight the patient already lives at, and surgery is timed for that weight so the change can stay.

Hours, Volume, and a Second Stage

See our amazing high definition result inside two limits: a safe time of 6 hours, and 5 liters of infiltration. Past 6 hours, or when other illnesses are present, overnight nursing is more likely. Nursing is mandatory when infiltration and aspiration exceed 5 liters, because that volume raises the risk of lidocaine toxicity and of fluid shifts that drop the blood pressure. Tumescent solution for that high-volume work uses one-half the lidocaine dose of traditional liposuction. Intravenous fluid is given to counter the shift. A body mass index over 33 is treated as high risk and is a reason to spend the night with a nurse. After surgery, a low blood pressure, a drop in oxygen, or pain out of proportion also moves the patient to nursing care.

Areas are prioritized so the problem zones are finished inside those limits. Most circumferential cases are described as fitting. A total body lift does not. That lift can include an extended tummy tuck, a breast lift with or without an implant, a medial thigh tuck, an upper arm tuck, and a lower body lift. Fat removal with VASER can follow as early as three months after those tucks. The liposuction is not forced into the same day when the skin excision already fills the safe window.

Skin that has lost recoil will not shrink just because the fat is gone. Elastin is the recoil protein named here, and it is described as lost after 40 years of age. Under 40, redundant skin may tighten over several years if the patient can wait. Over 40, a skin procedure at the time of VASER is advocated. The picture used for the leftover skin is an orange with the pulp removed, or a fold that will not pull flat.

Fees stay on the high definition liposuction cost page and are not repeated as a dollar amount.
