Vectra 3D Imaging

Mancoll Cosmetic & Plastic Surgery is the only practice in the area that uses the advanced VECTRA 3D imaging system to provide our patients with the most complete education possible regarding their plastic surgery procedures. Using this system, we take a three-dimensional (3D) photograph of the patient prior to surgery. Then, using VECTRA’s software simulation tools, we can create 3D representations. This allows the patient the opportunity to preview various surgical options and decide on the procedure that best suits his or her personal goals. VECTRA 3D is used for breast augmentations, breast lifts, body contouring, rhinoplasty, chin augmentations, and more. The entire process takes only a few minutes, and the patient will have the opportunity to review the results during his or her initial consultation. At that time, alternative simulations can be requested to be sure the patient is comfortable with the recommended surgical plan.

What to Expect

1. Your VECTRA 3D simulation experience begins with a picture session in our office. This creates the starting point for your aesthetic consultation.
2. Using special simulation software on your 3D picture, Dr. Mancoll will show you the possible results of the aesthetic procedures you may choose to have. You will be able to experiment with different looks until you find the one you want.
3. Once you have decided on the look you want, this simulation will provide a basis for your surgical plan. Because you have already seen the result, you can feel more confident in the outcome of the procedure.

About the Technology

The VECTRA 3D simulation technology was developed by Canfield Imaging Systems, a division of Canfield Scientific, the leading provider of clinical imaging systems. Canfield specializes in photographic applications for aesthetic medicine, and its products are used in patient consultations by thousands of practitioners worldwide.

The VECTRA 3D Camera

The VECTRA 3D camera captures a three-dimensional photograph of the patient. Using multiple cameras, it takes a number of pictures simultaneously from several different points of view. This is used to build a three-dimensional virtual model of the patient.
