Hi-Def Liposuction
At Jacobson Plastic Surgery, Hi-Def VASER Liposuction is performed using advanced technology to sculpt and refine areas such as the abdomen, flanks, chest, arms, and thighs.
What Is Hi-Def Liposuction?
High-definition liposuction is an advanced body contouring procedure designed to highlight natural muscle structure by selectively removing fat. It utilizes VASER liposuction, which employs ultrasound energy to break up fat deposits while preserving surrounding tissues. This allows for more precise sculpting and smoother recovery compared to traditional techniques.
One of the most sought-after applications of hi-def liposculpture is abdominal etching. This procedure enhances the visibility of the abdominal muscles, creating the appearance of a six-pack. It also defines the pectoral, back, arm, and thigh muscles, delivering a more athletic and proportionate physique.
Who Is a Candidate for Hi-Def Liposuction?
Ideal candidates for hi-def liposuction are individuals looking to achieve muscle definition beyond what diet and exercise can accomplish. Patients should be:
- Close to their ideal weight (within 10 pounds)
- Maintaining a BMI of 28 or lower
- In good overall health with no significant medical conditions
- Non-smokers or those willing to quit before the procedure and throughout the healing process
- Possessing good skin elasticity to allow proper retraction after fat removal
This procedure is not a substitute for weight loss but is designed to enhance muscle contours in individuals with some muscle tone.
What Happens During Hi-Def Liposuction?
Hi-Def VASER Liposuction is performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the extent of treatment. The procedure follows these steps:
- Incisions: Small incisions are made in strategic locations to access fat deposits.
- VASER Ultrasound Energy: A specialized probe emits ultrasound waves, liquefying fat cells while preserving nerves and blood vessels.
- Fat Removal: A thin cannula is used to suction out the emulsified fat.
- Muscle Definition Enhancement: Dr. Jacobson meticulously sculpts the treated areas, accentuating muscle contours to achieve a defined appearance.
- Final Refinements: The incisions are closed once the desired definition is achieved.
The procedure typically takes 2 to 4 hours, depending on the number of areas treated.
Recovery After Hi-Def Liposuction
Recovery time varies depending on the extent of the procedure. Patients should expect:
- Mild swelling and bruising for the first few weeks
- Wearing compression garments for several weeks to help shape the contours
- Limited physical activity for the first two weeks, with a gradual return to exercise
- Visible final results within 3 to 6 months as swelling subsides
Following all post-operative instructions, including proper hydration, movement, and avoiding smoking, can help ensure optimal results and a smooth recovery.
Benefits of Hi-Def Liposuction
Patients choose Hi-Def Liposuction for its ability to provide enhanced muscle definition, creating a more athletic and toned appearance. This technique allows for precise fat removal while minimizing tissue trauma, leading to faster healing than traditional liposuction. With proper weight maintenance, the results can be long-lasting, ensuring a sculpted physique that complements natural muscle structure.
Hi-Def Liposuction Cost
The cost of Hi-Def VASER Liposuction depends on several factors, including the number of areas treated, the complexity of the sculpting, and anesthesia or facility fees. A detailed cost estimate will be provided during your consultation to ensure transparency and alignment with your aesthetic goals.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do the results of hi-def liposuction last?
Results are long-lasting as long as patients maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. While fat cells removed during the procedure do not regenerate, weight gain can affect muscle definition and contouring.
Is hi-def liposuction painful?
Patients may experience mild discomfort during recovery, but VASER liposuction is known for its gentle approach, reducing post-surgical pain compared to traditional liposuction. Pain is typically managed with prescribed or over-the-counter medications.
Can hi-def liposuction be combined with other procedures?
Yes. Many patients combine hi-def liposculpture with fat transfer, skin tightening treatments, or other body contouring procedures for enhanced results.
How soon can I return to work after hi-def liposuction?
Most patients return to light work duties within 5 to 7 days, but strenuous activities should be avoided for at least 4 weeks to allow proper healing.
