High-Definition Liposuction
High-Definition Liposuction is an advanced form of liposuction that aims to sculpt the body to create a more athletic and toned appearance. This procedure uses specialized techniques and equipment to remove fat deposits while emphasizing underlying muscle definition.
Is High-Definition Liposuction right for you ?
High-Definition Liposuction is an excellent procedure for patients seeking to enhance their muscle definition to create a more chiseled appearance. Patients must remember that liposuction cannot be used for substantial weight loss. Instead, it removes excess fat in localized areas after the patient has attempted other traditional weight loss methods.
Common treatment areas for high-definition liposuction include:
Thighs and Knees
Abdomen and Flanks
Arms
Back
Hips
Neck
Buttocks
Chest
Face and Neck
Calves
Ankles
Additionally, high-definition liposuction is often combined with other cosmetic procedures, such as a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), a fat transfer to the breasts, or a tummy tuck to achieve maximum results. During your initial consultation, your surgeon will provide a comprehensive exam and discuss your goals to understand if this procedure is correct for you.

Before surgery
A patient care concierge will guide you through the entire consultation process, which can be attended in person or virtually. During the consultation, your surgeon will learn about your goals, answer any questions, and perform an examination to create a personalized surgical plan. You will then be matched with a surgical coordinator who will walk you through each step of the preoperative process.
During surgery
Several tiny incisions will be made in the treated area, and a fine cannula will be inserted to gently suction out the fat. Very few, if any, stitches are needed after high-definition liposuction since the incisions are small enough to heal on their own.
Your surgeon will use the revolutionary S.A.F.E liposuction technique, which stands for separation, aspiration, and fat equalization. The separation phase occurs when the vibrating cannula loosens and separates the fat cells from the rest of the tissue. Aspiration refers to the removal of fat cells from the body using suction incorporated into the cannula. The fat equalization phase requires the surgeon to leave a thin layer of fat just underneath the dermis to create a smoother contour and reduce the risk of dimpling on the skin's outer surface.
After surgery
Liposuction's most common side effects include mild swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the treated area. Compression garments or elastic bandages can be used to help reduce these symptoms while healing takes place. Patients usually can return to work and regular activities within a few days, but strenuous activities like exercise should be avoided for a few weeks. Your surgeon will provide detailed postoperative instructions and closely monitor your healing and recovery in the weeks and months following surgery.
