Have you reached that stage where you don’t want to lose weight as much as you don’t like fat in certain body areas? The evolution of liposuction techniques over the past few years has been nothing short of revolutionary. Traditional liposuction, as we know it, is quite effective for removing stubborn pockets of fat from various areas of the body. However, high-definition liposuction offers transformational, next-level outcomes for individuals seeking to achieve precise body contouring results.

What Is High-Definition Liposuction in Massachusetts?

Natural, toned contours are not flat; they have grooves and contours. Advanced liposuction results should be the same.

High-definition liposuction uses ultrasound-assisted technology (VASER® liposuction) to target unwanted fat almost anywhere on the body for a slimmer, more contoured result and plasma energy (Renuvion®) to assist with skin tightening. The procedure not only removes the extra fat deposits but also offers the appearance of muscle definition. This is achieved by strategically removing the deepest layers of fat and sculpting the remaining tissues to emphasize the underlying muscles.

The procedure is particularly useful in creating smoother contours in areas such as the abdomen, obliques, back, arms, and thighs, as well as defining the rectus (abdomen), chest, and shoulders.

Patients in Massachusetts can finally achieve that ideal aesthetic they desire with VASER® and Renuvion® high-definition liposuction.

How Does High-Definition Liposuction Work?

High-definition liposuction combines two cutting-edge technologies, VASER® liposuction and Renuvion®, to provide patients with precise and nuanced contours.

VASER® stands for “vibration amplification of sound energy at resonance.” It uses ultrasound waves to gently dislodge fat cells from the surrounding muscle, tissue, and connective fibers. This allows for targeted fat reduction with less post-procedure bruising and swelling.

VASER® liposuction uses tumescent fluid to help loosen and suction out excess fat. However, unlike traditional tumescent fluid, the fluid used in the VASER® procedure contains minuscule gas bubbles. When the energy from the ultrasound probe is applied, the gas bubbles collapse and dislodge clumps of fat with little to no damage to the surrounding tissue.

The ultrasound waves emitted by the VASER® device also give off a controlled amount of heat, which not only liquefies the fat cells and makes them easier to remove but also causes the collagen in your skin to contract, tightening and smoothing it.

Renuvion® offers minimally invasive skin tightening for men and women undergoing high-definition liposuction. It combines radiofrequency energy (RF) and helium plasma to firm and tighten skin around the treatment area. The radiofrequency energy heats the subcutaneous tissue while the helium plasma simultaneously cools the area, ensuring that the RF energy is targeted more precisely. The RF energy heats the collagen fibers in the skin, causing them to contract and effectively smoothing and tightening any skin laxity. Renuvion® also stimulates neocollagenesis, a process that boosts collagen production, so your results continue to develop over time.

Renuvion® can be performed nearly anywhere on the face and body to restore tighter, firmer skin that further enhances your liposuction results.

What Can High-Definition Liposuction Accomplish?

Instead of simply removing fat from the targeted area, Dr. Tolomeo considers the underlying frame of a person’s body to strategically remove fat and deliver highly defined results as desired. Patients who wish to add volume or roundness in certain areas can combine the procedure with fat transfer.

Because liposuction alone only removes fat, you may notice that the skin around the treatment area is saggier than it was before your procedure. This is a common problem with liposuction, but high-definition liposuction changes that. Choosing high-definition liposuction can enhance your results by eradicating excess fat and simultaneously tightening your skin to create a slimmer, more toned contour in just one treatment.

High-definition liposuction is performed for men and women who desire:

An athletic, sculpted look
Fewer pockets of unwanted fat
A slimmer, healthier-looking physique
Treatment around the circumference of their body (Lipo 360)
Natural-looking results

How Is High-Definition Liposuction Performed?

High-definition liposuction is an outpatient procedure performed using general anesthesia or twilight sedation. The procedure begins with the injection of tumescent fluid into the targeted treatment area. Dr. Tolomeo then makes small incisions at the treatment area(s) to allow the insertion of the VASER® ultrasound probes. The probes emit energy, melting and breaking up unwanted fat and dislodging it from the surrounding tissue. The probes are removed, and a thin cannula is inserted to vacuum out the fat and tumescent fluid. This procedure involves gentle, less aggressive fat suctioning as the fat is liquified before removal.
Once the VASER® liposuction is complete, Dr. Tolomeo inserts the Renuvion® wand and begins delivering the RF energy and helium plasma to the treatment area. After making several passes across the area, he completes the procedure by closing the incision(s) and applying sterile dressings to the area.

How to Prepare for High-Definition Liposuction

High-definition liposuction differs from traditional liposuction in that it is used specifically to precisely define and refine your physique. To make the most of your high-definition liposuction experience, recovery, and results, consider the following:

At your consultation, ask questions, look at before and after photos, and ensure that high-definition liposuction is the right procedure for you versus traditional liposuction
Be clear about your expectations for your results, and talk with your surgeon to ensure your expectations are realistic and achievable.
Follow any instructions from your surgeon regarding the use of nicotine, as well as temporarily discontinuing the use of medications and supplements that cause blood thinning.
Maintain a healthy and stable goal weight to optimize your results
Prepare a recovery space at home with everything you need, including prescriptions, electronics, and whatever else you might need for optimal comfort.
Familiarize yourself with your surgeon’s pre-and post-operative instructions so you know what to expect, as well as dos and don’ts before and after surgery.

Keep in mind that your surgeon is trained and experienced in the nuances of high-definition liposuction, so following their instructions to the letter will help ensure that you have a safe surgery and recovery with gorgeous results.

What Is High-Definition Liposuction Recovery Like?

As with other types of liposuction, the treatment area is wrapped in a compression dressing following the procedure to reduce swelling and promote healing. You can expect to experience some swelling, bruising, and discomfort for the first few days after surgery. This can be well-managed with pain medication.

Recovery time will vary from patient to patient, depending on the extent of treatment. Most patients can expect a minimal recovery time of up to a week, although some may need up to 10 to 14 days to resume work and light duties. Vigorous activity must be restricted for at least two weeks to allow ample time for proper healing.

As healing progresses, you will gradually notice a more toned look that brings out muscle definition in the treatment area.

What Results Can I Expect From High-Definition Liposuction?

The high-definition liposuction technique enhances the tone and definition of the treatment areas. Patients enjoy leaner and more natural curves than are possible with traditional liposuction or other body contouring procedures.

Your high-definition liposuction treatment results will be visible as long you maintain your healthy weight. Therefore, committing to a healthy diet and active lifestyle will help ensure long-lasting results.

Can High-Def Liposuction Be Combined With Other Cosmetic Surgeries?

Many patients combine their liposuction with a Brazilian Butt Lift to take advantage of the fat removed during the procedure. The Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a fat grafting option that requires liposuction to remove fat that is then used to augment the buttocks.

Additionally, some patients choose to incorporate liposuction into other body and breast contouring surgeries like tummy tuck surgery, breast augmentation, and breast lift surgery. This combination of procedures is commonly referred to as a Mommy Makeover.

Frequently Asked Questions About High-Definition Liposuction

How much does high-definition liposuction cost in Massachusetts?

The cost of high-definition liposuction in Massachusetts will vary depending on the size of the treatment area, the extent of necessary revision, and if you combine your procedure with any other surgeries, such as a tummy tuck. Once you have discussed your goals for the procedure with Dr. Tolomeo and he has created a custom treatment plan for you, he will provide you with an accurate cost estimate.

Will my high-definition liposuction results be permanent?

High-definition liposuction permanently removes fat cells in the treatment area(s). However, it is possible to gain weight in the surrounding areas, so it is important to make healthy choices to maintain results. While no cosmetic procedure can stop the signs of aging or additional changes to the body, with continued healthy choices, you should be able to enjoy the results of your liposuction procedure for years to come.

Will high-definition liposuction give me six-pack abs?

High-definition liposuction is a highly individualized fat-removing and contouring procedure. Depending on your body type and the amount of pre-existing muscle definition, Dr. Tolomeo can artfully create contours that accentuate your abdominal muscles. If your goal for this procedure is to have a more contoured, defined abdomen, discuss your options with Dr. Tolomeo during your consultation. He will be able to give you an honest assessment of expected results that will be unique to you.

How can I maintain the results of my high-definition liposuction?

Liposuction is not a weight loss solution, so it is important to be as close to your goal weight as possible. Adopting a healthy diet and exercise regimen before your procedure and maintaining a healthy lifestyle afterward will help to maximize your high-definition liposuction results. You may wish to tone and strengthen the treatment areas further through targeted exercises.
