LIPOSUCTION (LIPOSCULPTURE)

Liposuction is a procedure used to sculpt the body and reshape it into a beautiful slender figure. This is achieved by suctioning and permanently removing the stubborn fat deposits that normally don’t disappear with diets or exercise, in areas such as waist, tummy, lower back, hips, thighs, arms, etc.

When desired, the fat that was removed can be re-injected in other areas, like the buttocks, to reshape them and increase their volume.

Everything is done through tiny incisions placed in strategic points to make them unnoticeable. The result is an aesthetic body with an excellent figure.

• Anesthesia: Local with sedation
• Outpatient (no hospitalization)
• Surgery: 1 to 3 hours
• Recovery time: 1 week
• Return to normal activities: 1 month
• Final results: 3 to 4 weeks

LIPOABDOMINOPLASTY (TUMMY TUCK)

Pregnancy and drastic weight changes can cause the skin to stretch and lose its elasticity, making it flabby and protruding, especially in the abdominal area, on the waist, hips and thighs.
Lipoabdominoplasty is a new technique that combines two procedures: liposuction and abdominoplasty, allowing the doctor to remove excess fat and tissue, and tighten the skin and muscles, all at the same time.
The results are very satisfying: a flat stomach, a defined waistline and an overall more attractive and slender figure. Patients don’t have to worry about scars, since they are hidden in the bikini line.

• Anesthesia: epidural anesthesia with sedation
• Outpatient or 1 night of hospitalization
• Surgery: 3 to 4 hours
• Recovery time: 1 week
• Return to normal activities: 1 month
• Final results: 1 month
