This weekend I am in Denver, Colorado, as one of the first of four physicians in the world to be trained in SmartLipo® HighDef®. I am attending the first course taught by Dr. John Millard, who introduced the technique of HighDef® liposculpture to the United States. The technique was originally developed by Dr. Alfredo Hoyos of Colombia. With the introduction of the latest generation SmartLipo® Triplex machine, laser liposculpture technology can now be merged with the the truest technique of body sculpturing yet developed, HighDef® liposculpture. HighDef® liposculture is a meticulous technique of marking the anatomical structure of your muscles, followed by true contouring of the overlying fat to reveal the underlying muscle anatomy. In this technique fat is not only removed generally as in other forms of liposuction, but the fat is selectively contoured following the contour of the underlying muscles, removing more in some areas than in others, to create a sculpted form. In some situations some areas may have no fat removed, or one may even add fat to an area to create the desired contour and ideal anatomic shape.
The technique of SmartLipo® HighDef® can be used in conjunction with Vaser® HighDef® to enhance results. Though I have always made the effort to enhance the appearance of the underlying musculture for my patients, the combination of SmartLipo® technology with the HighDef® technique, takes the art of liposculpture to a whole new level.
HighDef® liposculpture is most commonly known as a way of creating a six-pack appearance of the abdomen, but in fat can be used anywhere in the body to sculpt and reveal the definition of the underlying muscles. So HighDef® liposculpture is also popular to enhance the appearance of the arms, back, legs, buttocks, and even the breasts.

Obviously the most important question to ask for any plastic surgery procedure is whether or not the procedure is safe. The main concern of plastic surgeons with regard to fat placed in the breast is whether this has any effect on the detection of breast cancer with mammograms, and whether fat grafting can cause breast cancer. After more than 10 years of studying this question, the answer to both questions appears to be favorable, particularly if meticulous micro-fat grafting procedures are used. In a study of 50 breast augmentation cases with fat Khouri et al revealed no difficulties with mammographic interpretation and no evidence of increased incidence of breast cancer. Particularly when compared to some of the problems that can occur with breast implants such as capsular contracture, fat grafting for breast augmentation appears to be a safe procedure.

As I mentioned in my previous post, we are very excited to introduce ADRC (stem and other regenerative cells) technology to the Bougainvillea Clinique.
We have now introduced the first skin rejuvenation protocol in the United States based on this technology.
Centered around the ADRC technology where your own fat is used to isolate a rich serum of your own stem cells, we have developed a unique skin rejuvenation protocol that is unique to every individual.
The protocol is designed to truly repair the damage suffered to the skin as a result of aging and sun damage.
Over the the last 14 years the Bougainvillea Clinique has become recognized as a leading skin rejuvenation treatment center with many satisfied clients worldwide.
Our latest protocol builds on our experience, and adds probably the most exciting regenerative and rejuvenation technology developed so far. Using our unique protocol we combine the ADRC serum with a combination of proven medical skin rejuvenation products and treatments to treat and restore the effects of sun damaged and aging skin, including wrinkles, loss of elasticity, uneven pigmentation and volume loss.
We are pleased to be able to offer this unique treatment to our patients. Call or email us today for more information
