VECTRA® XT For Improved Results

Posted April 13, 2016 in Breast Augmentation, VECTRA® XT 3D Imaging

A common fear among plastic surgery patients is that their results won’t turn out how they envisioned. It can be difficult to accurately explain your exact wants and needs, especially if you aren’t sure what they are yourself. Dr. Chin uses VECTRA® XT 3D imaging during his plastic surgery consultations to help his patients see their potential results before they undergo surgery by simulating the changes anticipated from surgery on the patient’s own body.

What Is VECTRA® XT?

VECTRA® XT is a three-dimensional digital imaging system that uses real-life photos to create a composite image on the computer. The software allows Dr. Chin to manipulate the image to showcase the subtle differences and changes that may occur during your procedure.

When Is VECTRA® XT Used?

Digital imaging is most useful for helping patients view their possible breast augmentation and facial plastic surgery results. Dr. Chin uses this advanced technology during his patient consultations.
