How it differs from standard liposuction
Standard liposuction reduces fat evenly to make an area smaller. HD liposuction treats fat in two layers: deep fat is removed broadly, and the superficial layer is sculpted along the borders of the muscles: the midline, the sides of the six-pack, the horizontal lines and, in men, the obliques and chest. The result is definition rather than just reduction.
Good candidates
- Body fat already moderate (roughly a fit build)
- Firm, elastic skin
- Regular exercise, and willing to keep it up
- Realistic expectation: a defined, athletic look, not a bodybuilder's
Not for
- Significant excess weight. Standard liposuction or weight loss first.
- Loose skin. A tummy tuck is needed.
Recovery
Similar to standard liposuction, but compression and lymphatic massage are particularly important for the definition to settle well. Desk work after about a week; gym after 4–6 weeks. Definition improves as swelling settles over 3–6 months.
Cost
HD and 360° liposuction with Dr. Vikrant start at ₹1,50,000. See liposuction in Ranchi and liposuction recovery week by week.
