Anyone considering breast augmentation surgery knows that choosing the right implant size is one of the most important decisions they will face!

Double board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Caroline Glicksman utilizes the VECTRA® 3D Imaging system to help her patients make informed decisions regarding their potential surgical outcomes ‘before’ having breast augmentation surgery. It can also help to confirm that desired goals are indeed realistic and attainable.

What is VECTRA® 3D Imaging?

Utilizing VECTRA® gives you the opportunity to preview and weigh various surgical options to see if they are appropriate for your specific goals and body type.

Every woman is unique, and their implant choices have to be a “good fit” for their specific body proportions. VECTRA® 3D imaging offers the opportunity to step into our “virtual fitting room” to “try on” different types and sizes of implants so that choosing the right breast implant can become an easier and more comfortable decision. VECTRA® can also help our patients to customize and tailor realistic expectations with attainable results. The surgical outcomes demonstrated with the VECTRA® 3D imaging system are “your” own potential results, not someone else’s. After viewing various surgical outcomes, you can have more peace of mind as you make an informed decision.
