Vaser 4D Sculpt Patient Testimonials

Posted by RaviJain Posted Date: Monday, 28 November 2011 11:37 AM

We are always thrilled when our patients take the time to tell others about their Riverbanks Experience. We found this latest testimonial on the sofeminine.co.uk website by a Vaser patient who had the very latest version of Hi Def….. Vaser 4D Sculpt. Her results are already pretty good despite being so early after her operation.

“Hello from fatsuit ville

Yes I had lipo vaser hi def on 10th Nov. These guys are the best I would not go anywhere else. If you are thinking of high def it gives the best results but you need to stay local to luton to get your aftercare massages. Remember no pain no gain but the results are beyond any pictures I have personally seen on the internet. I am still in the fatsuit and there is still a long way to go. I had well basically everywhere from knees to waist and also fat in my bum.

Tip
For god sakes take your painkillers before your aftercare massages  Read more... (281 words, estimated 1:07 mins reading time)

Frequently Asked Questions About VASER 4D Sculpt

Posted by RaviJain Posted Date: Sunday, 20 November 2011 08:56 AM

Who can have VASER 4D Sculpt?

The VASER 4D Sculpt procedure is meant for people who are already in good physical shape but have trouble achieving a defined, athletic physique. Both men and women can be treated. VASER 4D Sculpt is not meant for people who are very overweight or obese. The procedure depends heavily on skin retraction to help define the anatomical results. For people who are overly heavy, the skin has stretched beyond where VASER could help it retract. Please ask Dr Jain what other cosmetic options you have if this describes you.

Where can I have VASER 4D Sculpt done?

Honestly, just about anywhere. Men generally have their upper arms, and front & back of torso treated to give the most natural looking results. Women tend to have the same as well as their thighs and buttocks.

Whats the difference between Vaser Hi Def & Vaser 4D ?

Posted by RaviJain Posted Date: Friday, 18 November 2011 21:08 PM

There is no denying that the VASER Hi-Def technique was one of the most influential body contouring procedures in the last decade. However, even earthshakers have their flaws. And as Dr. Hoyos worked more and more with Hi-Def, he realized the multiple flaws the procedure presented.

That is why he went back to the drawing board, re-imagined his creation, and has now released 4D Sculpt™.

 

The differences between 4D Sculpt™ and Hi-Def may be subtle, but when applied in the operating room, the nuances are distinctly profound. 4D Sculpt™ means the difference between clunky sculpture and natural human beauty.

 

Here is an in-depth explanation of the differences between VASER Hi-Def and Dr. Hoyos’ highly improved 4D Sculpt™.

 

1. VASER Hi-Def Ignores the Body in Motion.

 

Coined by Dr. Hoyos as the “Pinocchio problem,” VASER Hi-Def results often do not show the muscles in motion. It does not incorporate the natural progression of the body in motion.

Dietary recommendations after your VASER surgery

Posted by RaviJain Posted Date: Wednesday, 16 November 2011 08:00 AM

Dietary Recommendations following your Vaser surgery

 

Vaser liposelection will have removed a significant amount of your fat cells from your body especially from those stubborn areas. However, it is important to realise that you do need to look after your new body in order to maximise the results of your surgery.

 

Many of our patients have commented that they have found it easier to lose weight following VASER than before. As a result their motivation to diet and exercise is maintained for longer and so they achieve better results.

 

Some people are very resistant to weight loss if they eat starchy food such as breads, rices, pastas, potatoes, milk, chocolates & sweets.

 

Following my own surgery I adopted a low GI diet together with some other lifestyle changes which led to dramatic weight loss and also improved physique.

 

 

DIET

For the next 3 weeks, try to avoid the following ingredients for 6 days of every week:  Read more... (569 words, estimated 2:17 mins reading time)

FAQ’s: Gynecomastia treatment with VASER

Posted by RaviJain Posted Date: Monday, 14 November 2011 23:16 PM

Male Breast Reduction with Vaser Liposelection

Gynaecomastia is a medical term which describes oversized breasts in men. It is an extremely common condition, with some studies reporting it to be present in up to 60% of men. It is thought that the incidence is increasing due to changes in environmental conditions in our diet over the last few decades.

 

There are two forms of gynaecomastia.

 

True gynaecomastia

This is when a breast gland has developed in response to a hormonal sensitivity, usually around puberty. It is often associated with extra fatty tissue in the breast which further increases the size of the breast. True gynecomastia may be diagnosed clinically during your examination with your surgeon or via an ultrasound scan. It needs to be treated surgically with excision of the gland. Liposuction or VASER may be used in addition, to remove any excess fat. A half circle incision is necessary around the outline of your nipple and the gland is removed through this. The procedure can be carried out ‘twilight’ or general anaesthesia, depending on the extent of the planned surgery. It can usually be performed as a day case, with no overnight stay required.  Read more... (966 words, 1 image, estimated 3:52 mins reading time)

Why can’t I lose any weight?

Posted by RaviJain Posted Date: Monday, 11 July 2011 21:47 PM

ADDICTION TO CARBOHYDRATES AND GLUTEN OFTEN UNDERLIES EXCESS WEIGHT AND OBESITY

As many as 75% of overweight and obese people in the UK may be addicted through poor eating habits to either carbohydrates or the protein called gluten, which is found in all wheat, rye, barley and oat products.

 

Like any addiction, these cravings are unhealthy and problematic. They take the form of either an irresistible craving for carbohydrate-rich foods such as desserts, candies and junk food, or gluten products like breakfast cereals, breads and pasta.

 

Carbohydrate-rich foods make up a large part of the modern-day diet and include bagels, cakes, chocolate, cookies, crackers, pastry, fruit and fruit juice, ice cream, potato chips, potatoes, pretzels, rice, pie, popcorn and sugar-sweetened beverages. In addition, carbohydrate “act-a-likes” such as sugar substitutes, alcoholic beverages and monosodium glutamate may trigger intense, recurring carbohydrate cravings, which can lead to excess weight and obesity.

Dr Ravi Jain – best for breasts and tummies!

Posted by admin Posted Date: Wednesday, 06 April 2011 12:02 PM

We’re delighted to let our patients know that Dr Ravi Jain of Riverbanks Clinic has been featured in the Tatler Beauty and Cosmetic Surgery guide.

His entry is featured below – click on the image to see a bigger version and read how they described Dr Jain as ‘clean cut, softly spoken and extremely knowledgeable’, and Riverbanks as ‘possibly the cosiest clinic in the UK’

If you can’t read the image, we have transcribed the copy below:

“Clean-cut, softly spoken and extremely knowledgable, Dr Jain is a rare breed: a country doctor with a big-city pedigree. He runs Riverbanks, possibly the cosiest clinic in the UK. Set in a converted 250-year-old pub in rural Bedfordshire, it boasts five state of the art treatment rooms and an on-site operating theatre. A lot of Dr Jain’s patients are mothers form his daughter’s school – a good endorsement, we think – and consultations are done over coffee, which puts nervous first timers at ease. He is an expert on VASER, a body sculpting technique that uses ultrasound to breakdown fat. You can also seek him outing town, as he visits London weekly to consult at smart rooms in Chelsea*. Consultation £50, Vaser from £2000. Ring 08447047761 or visit riverbanksclinic.co.uk”  Read more... (280 words, 2 images, estimated 1:07 mins reading time)
