VASER Hi Def Liposculpture at Des Moines Plastic Surgery™
VASER Hi Def Liposculpturing is a minimally invasive procedure that precisely and efficiently reduces unwanted body fat. This system uses state-of-the-art ultrasound technology (VASER) which is designed to gently reshape your body. The technique requires that the doctor is specially trained in VASER Hi Def Liposculpturing.
What makes the VASER Hi Def Liposculpturing procedure different is its ability to sculpt six pack abs, pecs, lats, obliques (as well as other muscle groups). Innovative VASER technology breaks up fat while preserving important tissues such as nerves, blood vessels and connective tissue to promote smooth results and rapid healing.

What is VASER Hi Def Liposculpturing and is it different from traditional liposuction?
Traditional liposuction involves removal of deep fat in the body and is simply a reduction in fat volume. Traditional liposuction does not allow the surgeon to “sculpt” the body. Liposculpture is more than just fat removal. Rather, it involves an advanced and artistic way of shaping the body then traditional liposuction. The VASER ultrasound liposuction device is used in the liposculpture procedure as well as removal of subdermal, superficial, and deep fat compartments. Advanced ultrasound energy is used to break down fat in a very precise and efficient manner.
Most surgeons perform traditional liposuction and not liposculpture. Dr. Robbins purchased the VASER liposculpture device for his practice and is properly trained in this advanced liposuction and body contouring technique. He is the only surgeon offering VASER Hi Def and VASER 4D liposculpture in the state of Iowa.
High-definition liposculpture is an advanced liposuction technique that allows Dr. Robbins to improve the visibility of muscles and to sculpt the body. Candidates for High Def liposculpture are healthy, athletic individuals who want to increase the visibility of their muscle detail. In essence, High Def Liposculpture is liposuction for the physically fit. From Dr. Robbins’ perspective, High Def Liposculpture is taking his skills as a surgeon to the next level.
Who are the ideal candidates for VASER Hi Def Liposculpture?
The suitable candidates for VASER Hi Def Liposculpture should have a body mass index in the normal range and little to no skin laxity. Patients who already live a healthy lifestyle but want to get rid of troublesome fat pockets are ideal candidates. It is crucial to have adequate skin elasticity before undergoing this operation to avoid potential sagging.
Patients who are in good shape, have a firm underlying musculature, and don’t have much fat that needs to be removed are perfect candidates for VASER Hi Def Liposculpture. This surgery is for you if you wish to have strong, well-developed muscles and reduce excess body fat.
What is VASER 4D Liposculpture?
Des Moines Plastic Surgery™, VASER High Def 4D liposculpture involves VASER High Def liposculpture with the addition of fat grafting to augment anatomy. The fat grafting adds an entirely new dimension of sculpting the body. Dr. Robbins incorporates the patient’s own fat (autologous fat transfer (AFT) to fine tune nearly any part of the patient’s body. At Des Moines Plastic Surgery™, Dr. Robbins can enhance the rectus and oblique muscles of the abdomen by using intramuscular and sub-dermal fat grafting. AFT can also be used to add definition to the breasts, shoulders, arms, buttocks and legs.

Chest Sculpting Procedure
This procedure involves VASER Hi Def 4D liposculpting along the lower and lateral (outer) chest to “define” the chest muscles. Next, fat grafting is performed to the pectoralis muscle (chest muscle) to enhance chest muscle size, shape, projection and definition.
Ab Sculpting Procedure
Ab sculpting is the most common VASER HD 4D procedure performed by Dr. Robbins. It involves liposculpting and fat grafting the upper and lower abdominal region and the pelvic crease area resulting in a chiseled “six pack”, sculpted abdominal region.
Shoulders & Arms Sculpting Procedure
VASER Hi Def Liposculpture can be performed to the arms and shoulders. Deltoids, biceps and triceps can be sculpted and defined with a combination of VASER liposculpting and fat transfer.
VASER Hi Def Breast Sculpting Procedure
The VASER HD technique starts by removing superficial fat from around the breast’s lower and outer border making the breast appear larger with a more defined, smoother and distinctive curve of the female breast with removal of unwanted excess fat that can be apparent under bra straps. The fat that is extracted can then be transferred to your inner chest area to naturally enhance your cleavage and camouflage widely separated breasts.
What to expect after a VASER Hi Def Liposculpture procedure
Unless the volume of fat being removed is extremely high, the VASER Hi Def Liposculpture technique is normally performed as an outpatient operation under general anesthesia. Downtime varies depending on the surgery and the patient, but it is normally two to five days at home. Patients are advised to wear compression garments 24 hours a day, seven days a week for the first two to four weeks.
Bruising and muscular tenderness are typical after the VASER Hi Def Liposculpture procedure. Most patients are encouraged to do light exercise after two weeks and can go to the gym one month after surgery. After six weeks, all limitations are abolished.
