Very polite and helpful at the front desk got me right in. Dr. Silk explained every aspect of the procedure I’m interested in also the options, great information. Thank you. SEE MORE
VECTRA® 3D photographic simulation at Salinas Valley Plastic Surgery Associates™ represents a revolutionary advancement in aesthetic plastic surgery planning, allowing patients to visualize their potential results before committing to any procedure. Board-certified plastic surgeons Dr. Matthew L. Romans and Dr. Jeremy Silk utilize this cutting-edge technology to help patients preview their transformation through detailed three-dimensional imaging.
How Does VECTRA® 3D Imaging Work?
The process begins with a photography session where the patient stands in front of the VECTRA® 3D device so that it can capture a comprehensive three-dimensional image. Using specialized Sculptor software developed by Canfield Imaging Systems (the world’s leading provider of medical photography systems), Dr. Romans and Dr. Silk can then simulate the expected results of various aesthetic procedures.
Your surgeon can easily fine-tune the 3D image to achieve the patient’s ideal outcome. We can also rotate it to any viewpoint, allowing patients to examine their desired results from multiple angles.
Which Procedures Can I Use This For?
VECTRA® 3D photographic simulation can be used to preview results for numerous aesthetic procedures, such as:
- Breast augmentation and other breast procedures
- Rhinoplasty
- Facelift and facial rejuvenation treatments

Why Patients Love VECTRA® 3D Photographic Simulation
“My patients absolutely love this,” said Dr. Romans. “For the first time, they’re able to see a 3D picture of themselves with their new look. Because it’s in 3D, I can rotate their picture to any viewpoint and they can really examine the desired result. We can make changes here and there and agree on a final look in advance, and this truly helps them make a decision”.
This interactive consultation process has transformed how Salinas Valley Plastic Surgery Associates™ approaches patient education and surgical planning. Many patients report that seeing their simulated results helps them better communicate their aesthetic goals and ensures they and their surgeon are aligned on the expected outcome.

How Much Does VECTRA® 3D Imaging Cost?
The cost of VECTRA® 3D photographic simulation is typically incorporated into your complete treatment plan price rather than charged separately. By ensuring effective communication about your desired results, it also significantly reduces the chance of needing corrective procedures, which are often charged separately.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can VECTRA® 3D simulations guarantee my surgical results?
While VECTRA® 3D technology provides highly accurate simulations, it cannot 100% guarantee exact surgical outcomes due to individual healing variations and other anatomical factors. The simulations serve as an educational tool to help set realistic expectations and facilitate effective communication between patients and surgeons.
