Cruise Plastic Surgery Now Provides VECTRA XT 3D Imaging
VECTRA XD 3D Imaging
Cruise Plastic Surgery in Newport Beach recently began using the high-tech VECTRA XT 3D imaging system during consultations to show patients a simulation of what their final result will look like. The VECTRA XT is a complete 3D imaging solution for face, body, and breast.
“The VECTRA technology offers so many exciting tools to help accurately communicate through imaging what is able to be achieved through surgery and sometimes what is not able to be achieved, ” mentions Joseph T Cruise, MD.
VECTRA XT 3D imaging allows Joseph T Cruise, MD to assess, educate, and simulate possible outcomes. This comprehensive imaging capability allows an individual to see a simulation of what they will look like following surgery. One of the main reasons people who are interested in having a cosmetic procedure do not move forward with having surgery is the lack of confidence in obtaining the result they desire. Until now older 3D imaging software was only used for demonstrating rhinoplasty and chin augmentation results. Plastic surgeons were unable to use the imaging to simulate a facelift, tummy tuck, liposuction, breast augmentation, buttock augmentation, etc.
The VECTRA XT is capable of providing the following tools during an individual’s consultation:
-
- Provides automated & accurate measurements
-
- Grey mode -Allows patients to see contour issues with the skin.
-
- Volume difference -Visualize the degree of contour change with the color distance map.
-
- Soft tissue modeling – Generates actual 3D models of the selected implant type and calculate an outcome based on gravity, implant placement, and shape.
-
- Mastopexy interface – Demonstrates how various breast lift incisions remove and tighten the skin.
-
- Breast implant options – Select different types of implants to show how they might look different
-
- Compare multiple outcomes side by side – Compare multiple implant scenarios with various sizes/shapes/etc.
-
- Overlaying – Overlaying an individual’s pre-op picture with the simulated outcome makes the differences more apparent.
-
- Visualize expectations – The Sculptor® feature is a powerful tool used to demonstrate breast enhancement.
-
- Contouring – Simulates the removal of volume or addition of volume to the face or body.
-
- Complimentary procedures – Shows the changes resulting from more than one procedure (example: rhinoplasty w/ chin augmentation, tummy tuck w/ liposuction or breast lift w/augmentation).
-
- Dorsal adjustment – A special slider feature shows instant rhinoplasty simulation.
