3D Facial Imaging Shows How The Face Ages On Denver T.V. Show: Dr Michael McCracken

http://www.mccrackenmd.com - Dr. Michael McCracken, a Denver area plastic surgeon, is using a new facial imaging system in his Parker, CO location. The "VECTRA" simulates facial procedures, allowing patients to see an approximation of the the outcome of their cosmetic procedures before any restorations are made. McCracken Eye and Face Institute, is the first private medical facility to use the computerized device in Colorado.

The system instantly captures 3D images of the face, which the Dr. uses to demonstrate procedure simulations to his patients in one office visit. The device has several settings that can visually demonstrate skin conditions and volume loss caused by age. Dr. McCracken can demonstrate how facial procedures, such as laser rejuvenation and dermal fillers can be used to correct areas of concern.

"With the VECTRA, I can simulate the results of laser resurfacing, adding volume with a given amount of filler, and other facial procedures," says Dr. McCracken. "While the simulations are not meant to serve as a guarantee, the images can help my patients appreciate sun damage, facial descent due to gravity, and volume loss and the ways facial procedures can correct these concerns by presenting them with realistic 3D images."
