Abstract

High-definition liposuction (HDL) describes a higher standard of body contouring when compared to traditional liposuction. Superior HDL outcomes have been recognized as being stunning in appearance when viewed from all angles. This means contouring in a circumferential manner, termed 360, as well as providing detailed contouring highlights, coined three-dimensional liposculpture. HDL requires the fusion of advanced medical tools and artistry to create extraordinary contour aesthetics that optimize gender-specific aesthetics with muscle highlights when indicated. Muscle highlights must be accurate and detailed representing the actual muscle architecture both in static as well as dynamic form. This degree of muscle unveiling has been coined four-dimensional (4D) liposuction. In order to achieve HDL results, several factors must be fulfilled and these include proper patient selection, customized surgical planning, accurate preoperative markings, and mastery in ultrasound-assisted liposuction [1].
