BODY CONTOURING
HIGH DEFINITION LIPOSUCTION
High-definition liposuction, also known as HD liposuction or VASER liposuction, is an advanced surgical technique used to sculpt and contour the body by selectively removing excess fat deposits from certain areas around the body. This procedure is designed to enhance the natural muscular definition and create a more toned and athletic appearance.
Traditional liposuction involves the removal of fat using a suction cannula, but high-definition liposuction utilizes an additional step that enhances the precision and results. It involves the use of ultrasonic energy to selectively break down and emulsify the fat cells before removal. This technology is known as VASER (Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance).
High-definition liposuction is particularly suitable for individuals who are already at or near their ideal body weight but struggle with localized areas of stubborn fat that obscure muscle definition. Common treatment areas include the abdomen, waist, hips, thighs, buttocks, back, arms, and chest.
One of the key advantages of high-definition liposuction is its ability to selectively remove fat while preserving other vital structures such as blood vessels and nerves. This precision allows for more accurate sculpting and contouring, resulting in a more aesthetically pleasing outcome. This form of liposuction may be combined with skin-tightening devices to further enhance the final result.
Dr Sooka performs liposuction and body contouring procedures in Sandton, at the Mediclinic Sandton hospital.
RECOVERY
Recovery from high-definition liposuction is typically faster compared to traditional liposuction due to the smaller incisions and reduced trauma to the tissues. However, patients may experience bruising, swelling, and discomfort, which can be managed with pain medications and compression garments. It is important to follow Dr Sooka’s post-operative instructions and attend follow-up appointments for optimal healing and results.
Dr Sooka has undergone formal training with some of the world-leaders in high-definition body contouring and liposculpture (Dr Alexis Delobaux, Dr David Sieber, Dr Jordi Mir, Dr Kaloyan Denkov) to be able to perform this procedure.
