DR. JASON EMER INSIDE THE PRACTICE
Three Weeks After MAXORIS™ APEX: Six Pack, Chest, Arms, Jaw and Buccal Fat Results on a Patient Who Already Trains
Dr. Jason Emer walks through the three week mark after a full MAXORIS™ APEX session: high definition body sculpting plus facial contouring on a young, athletic patient who trained six days a week but could not show the definition he was building.
From the filmed session
He trained six days a week. The muscle was there. The definition was not.
Open on YouTubeThe plan, procedure by procedure
A young, athletic man who trained six days a week came to Dr. Emer because fat in his stomach, chest and face kept his muscle from showing. Dr. Emer planned a MAXORIS™ APEX session sculpting the chest, arms, back, abs and buttocks, with buccal fat reduction and neck and jaw contouring. At three weeks, the next step is peptides and training.
The practice's men's sculpting system, used here to combine body and facial contouring in one session for a young, athletic patient.
“So that is MAXORIS™ APEX, you guys, in a young person.”
Dr. Emer, in the film
Lifted the upper chest and brought out cleavage, shoulder and bicep definition that his existing muscle was not showing.
“The cleavage, the upper chest, the shoulder definition, the bicep, all coming in.”
Dr. Emer, in the film
Reduced extra fat in the lower back so the back dimples begin to show, an area Dr. Emer says stays swollen for a few months.
“There was a lot of extra fat here. And now when I pinch, all this hardness is the inflammation or the fat that's going to decrease.”
Dr. Emer, in the film
Transferred fat to the buttock to give it more elevation and a rounder, athletic shape where it had been droopier.
“The fat definitely gave him a more elevated muscular athlete type buttock.”
Dr. Emer, in the film
Began revealing the oblique edges and central abdominal lines, with the area still tight from swelling at three weeks.
“you're starting to see the edges of the obliques, the central and linear lines, and then the flattening that's going here.”
Dr. Emer, in the film
Reduced loose skin in the neck and tightened the chin and jaw angle for a more defined side profile.
“Look at the projection in his chin. Look at the tightening and elevation of the angle of the mandible.”
Dr. Emer, in the film
Reduced the buccal fat pads so hollowing under the cheekbones starts to appear, with the full facial result taking about three months.
“the hollowing is starting to come in. That's buccal fat pad reduction.”
Dr. Emer, in the film
Part of the plan after surgery, alongside training, to support the result as swelling goes down.
“So now we're going to take it to the next level with peptides, working out and really optimizing his longevity.”

Why patients fly in
The patient was already muscular and training hard. The goal was to reveal muscle that stubborn fat was hiding, then let training and fading swelling sharpen the result.
“He's young. He's athletic. But some guys make find it very difficult to actually showcase their muscle.”
Dr. Emer treated the neck, jaw and cheeks alongside the body, even in a young patient, to build the sculpted look men ask for.
“a lot of times people don't even think a young person needs any facial treatments.”
The plan continues after surgery with peptides and training, so the result keeps developing as swelling settles over the following weeks and months.
“This is about longevity in the result, not just doing a treatment and hoping that that's going to give you the best outcome.”

THE THINKING BEHIND THE TREATMENT
Follow Dr. Emer’s approach through the stages described in this case.
Back to the video ↗He was muscular. He was consistent. The definition was not breaking through.
The patient in this video trained six days a week. The muscle was there, but he was predisposed to fat gain in the stomach, chest and face, and the work he was putting in was not showing. He says plainly: this was his dream procedure, and Dr. Emer delivered.
“Look at the lack of the upper chest. And look at the lack of the definition on the side.”DR. JASON EMER · FROM THE VIDEO
MAXORIS™ APEX is built in stages: the procedure, the drying phase, the definition phase, and the final settling.

Dr. Emer performed a full MAXORIS™ APEX session: high definition liposculpture of the abs, chest, arms, shoulders, back and buttocks, plus facial contouring with buccal fat pad reduction, jaw sculpting and neck tightening. At the three week mark shown in the video, the swelling is still present, but the shape is already visible.

The upper chest has lift and cleavage. The obliques are starting to edge in. The shoulders pop. The jawline is tighter and more angular, with a clean line from the center of the chin to the edge of the ear. The neck has much less loose skin. The cheek hollowing is beginning to appear.
Dr. Emer explains that it takes about six weeks for the real definition to come in, and a few months for areas like the lower back to fully settle. The patient is now starting from a more cut baseline, and as he continues training and the swelling goes down, the result will keep improving.

“So, very good results. I think now it's time to really hit it at the gym so we can see the outcomes.”DR. JASON EMER · FROM THE VIDEO

The patient in this video was muscular before the procedure. He trained six days a week, consistently, but he was predisposed to fat gain in the stomach, chest and face. The work was there, the muscle was there, but the definition was not breaking through.
Dr. Emer is showing him at the three week mark after MAXORIS™ APEX, a combined session that sculpted the abs, chest, arms, shoulders, back and buttocks, plus facial contouring with buccal fat pad reduction and neck tightening. At three weeks the swelling is still present, but the shape is already visible: the upper chest has lift and cleavage, the obliques are starting to edge in, the jawline is tighter and more angular.
MAXORIS™ APEX is high definition liposculpture designed for men who train. Fat is removed from areas that blur definition, the abs, chest, shoulders, biceps and back, and then the remaining tissue is sculpted to follow the muscle underneath. In some cases fat is transferred to areas like the buttocks to add elevation and roundness.
Dr. Emer describes the result at three weeks as the beginning of the drying and tightening phase. It takes about six weeks for the real definition to come in, and a few months for areas like the lower back to fully settle. At three weeks this patient is already showing the tapering of the torso, the roundness of the chest from the side, the shoulder definition and the straightness of the oblique edges that Dr. Emer says men want to see.
What to expect
MAXORIS™ APEX is built in stages: the procedure, the drying phase, the definition phase, and the final settling.
High definition liposculpture of the body, facial contouring, or both in one session depending on your build and recovery capacity.
Swelling is still present, but the shape is already visible. The upper chest lifts, the obliques start to edge in, the jawline tightens.
The body dries out, the skin tightens, and the muscle definition becomes unmistakable.
The face fully settles, the lower back smooths out, and the result continues improving as you train.
Why Dr. Emer
Two decades of results, a global patient base, and techniques other surgeons travel to learn.
Dr. Emer built his reputation on outcomes that read as natural at rest and unmistakable in motion. He pioneered high definition body sculpting approaches that are now taught internationally, and he personally performs every procedure in his practice.
Patients come to him when the result has to be precise: athletes protecting a physique they earned, men who want structure without looking overdone, and people who have been elsewhere and want it done right.
Fat is removed and tissue is sculpted to follow the muscle you already built, not to fake muscle you do not have.
The chest, abs, arms, jaw and neck are treated as one system, not separate procedures.
The result is designed to dry out and tighten as you continue working out, not to look best the day you leave.
The plan includes peptides, training protocols and recovery optimization, because the outcome depends on what you do after.
Asked plainly, answered plainly
No. MAXORIS™ APEX is built for men who already train consistently but cannot show the muscle they are building because of stubborn fat or loose skin. It reveals the work, it does not replace it.
At three weeks the shape is already visible. At six weeks the real definition comes in. At three months the face fully settles. The result continues improving as you train.
Yes, if your build and recovery capacity allow it. Some patients stage the treatments separately. That decision is made during consultation.
Downtime depends on how much is done in one session. Most patients are back to light activity within days and full training within weeks, based on how the procedure goes and how the body responds.
Some patients build in stages. Some achieve their goal in one session. Candidacy, treatment areas and whether additional sessions make sense are determined during consultation.
A consultation with Dr. Emer covers your build, your training, and whether MAXORIS™ APEX fits your goals.
