Vectra 3D

The vectra 3D photography system allows a patient to visualise the likely outcome post surgery.  The system is used in particular for rhinoplasty and breast augmentation patients. 

In regards to rhioplasty, using precisely arrayed digital imagers, a three-dimensional virtual model of the face is constructed. This model can be rotated to be viewed from any angle. Once the base image has been established, your surgeon can work with you deciding on the size, shape, and adjustments you seek to receive the result you are lookig for.  Since the model is three dimensional, it can be rotated to allow you to see it from any and all angles. Views such as side by side comparisons and translucent overlays help you to decide on the results you are seeking and helps you visualise your new look.  However, it can only be used as a guide and not a guarantee.

For breast augmentation patients, using precisely arrayed digital imagers, a precise three-dimensional virtual model of your torso, from your hips to your neck, is constructed. This model can be rotated to be viewed from any angle. Once the base image has been established, your surgeon can work with you deciding on the size, shape, and type of breast implant you need to receive the result you are seeking. The software includes specific values based on the actual implants available, so that the virtual implant will precisely match the size and shape of the implant your surgeon will use
