High-Definition Liposculpting
(Sixpack Surgery)
Advanced body shaping that targets fat removal and emphasizes natural muscle contours – for an athletic, defined appearance with a short recovery time.
Overview of the treatment
The most important facts
Operation Duration: approx. 1–4 hours
Fit for work: approx. 3–7 days
Suitable if...
You bring a lower body fat percentage, good skin quality, and a stable weight.
You specifically want a definition/"etching" of the natural muscle lines – not primarily a volume reduction.
You have clear target images and consistently adhere to the aftercare (compression garments, gradual activation).
Method & Variants
VASER® (Ultrasound)
Here, the fat tissue is selectively dissolved with ultrasound before suctioning. This allows for a finer shaping and clean transitions – especially along the anatomical lines such as linea alba (middle abdominal line), linea semilunaris (lateral abdominal line) as well as the pectoral/lateral edges. VASER is the core tool of HD shaping and also helps with firmer/fibrous tissue (back, re-operations, male breast).
RENUVION® (subdermal skin support)
Helium plasma + radiofrequency are applied under the skin to support the reduction of the skin covering after fat removal. We use Renuvion situationally – for mild to moderate laxity, it can make the contour appear more defined. Important: It does not replace a tummy tuck in cases of significant excess skin; we clarify this during the consultation.
Typical HD zones
Abdomen & flanks (emphasis on linea alba/semilunaris, waist), chest (male) (upper/lateral edge for clear transitions), back (V-shape, lumbar hollow) and upper arms (triceps contour). Before the operation, we mark the lines while standing (“mapping”) so that the definition appears anatomically coherent and natural.
Which combination (traditional liposuction, VASER, Renuvion) makes sense in your case will be determined after examining skin, tissue, and target image – focusing on athletic-natural results, not exaggerated “grooves.”
Process – 4 Steps
Consultation
We take the time to understand your goals and clearly discuss how much definition is realistic – as opposed to mere volume reduction. We analyze anatomy, skin quality, and proportions, document the initial findings photographically, and explain the method, risks, and healing process calmly and transparently.
Preparation
While standing, we mark the anatomical lines (e.g. linea alba, linea semilunaris, pectoral/lateral borders) and establish the surgery plan: areas, VASER application, if necessary RENUVION. You will receive your compression garment, instructions on medication/fasting, organization of pickup/companion, and the follow-up appointments.
Surgery
Under general anesthesia, we selectively detach the fat VASER-assisted and model the contour along the marked lines (“Etching”), with soft transitions and symmetry control. RENUVION is applied subdermally to support when the skin condition is appropriate. Sterile procedure, drains only if necessary; at the end, the compression clothing is applied.
Aftercare
After the awakening phase, you will receive instructions on pain/swelling management, care for the punctures, sleep and movement rules, as well as wearing the garment for 4–6 weeks. Follow-up appointments (e.g. after 1 week, 4–6 weeks, 3 months) are firmly scheduled; light activity starts gradually (usually after 1–2 weeks), more intense sports after 4–6 weeks. If you have questions or concerns, you have a clear emergency contact – we are available.
Risks & Safety
As with any procedure, there are general surgical/anesthesia risks (e.g., infection, bleeding, thrombosis/embolism). Specific to HD, over- or under-definition, contour irregularities/dents, temporary changes in sensitivity, seromas, or pigment reactions can occur. In energy-assisted procedures (e.g., VASER, Renuvion), thermal skin reactions are rare, but they are minimized through experienced parameterization, tissue-sparing techniques, and ISO-certified processes.
We actively counteract: precise mapping of anatomical lines, intraoperative symmetry checks, a clear aftercare plan (compression garment for 4–6 weeks, gradual activation, lymphatic drainage as needed), and regular check-ups. You can support the process by quitting smoking, maintaining weight stability, and adhering to garment compliance.
Important: Our goal is a defined, proportioned contour – athletic, not
