New 3-D Imaging Technology for Plastic Surgery Now Available in the Triangle

Aug. 20, 2012 - PRLog -- Raleigh, NC – A revolutionary new breakthrough in plastic surgery that combines 3D photography with Vectra Sculptor Software now makes it possible for patients to get a preview of how they will look after plastic surgery procedures like breast augmentation. The Vectra 3D Photographic Simulation System is changing the way surgeons perform consultations with patients considering plastic surgery.

“Vectra 3D interactive imaging relieves uncertainty about the outcome of surgery, by enabling us to create digital images of the results we are likely to achieve,” said Dr. Glenn Davis, owner of Davis Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics in Raleigh, and the first practice to bring the Vectra System to the Triangle. “Having the patient share their vision while I manipulate the image of the surgical area to achieve their desired result on the screen helps them visualize how they will look after the procedure, and manage their expectations of the end result.”

Vectra 3D images can be viewed from all angles, including side by side and translucent overlays, allowing patients to “try on” many different options before deciding which is right for them. Until now prospective surgery patients would often bring photographs of other people to show the doctor how they would like to look after surgery. Vectra’s interactive software creates a more realistic image using the patient’s own body type as the model. According to Davis, Vectra system is very helpful for his breast augmentation patients reviewing their options for different size and shaped implants, resulting in more confident decisions.

Davis Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics is one of the Triangle’s leading providers of plastic surgery of the breast and body, as well as non-invasive aesthetic skin rejuvenation procedures. A board certified surgeon with over 25 years in the industry, Dr. Glenn Davis specializes in breast augmentation, tummy tucks and a variety of liposuction procedures. His skilled staff offers a variety of services for skin care, rejuvenation and anti-aging.
