Body contour

Some people have body irregularities due to accumulations of fat located in specific areas, which appear due to lack of exercise, inherited characteristics, endocrinological disorders or associated with pregnancy. These areas can be molded by means of liposuction, which represents the most performed cosmetic surgical procedure in the world for its safety and efficacy when performed by expert personnel.

PURPOSE OF THE PROCEDURE

Liposuction is a surgical procedure that seeks to shape the body contour by extracting fat in areas where it is in excess, in this way the proportions of the body are improved and its silhouette is defined.

Liposuction is used to mold fat located in: abdomen, back, waist, hips, buttocks, thighs, arms, chest, face and neck. If you are dissatisfied with the presence of fat accumulations in certain parts of your body, which have not responded to diet or exercise, liposuction may be an option for you.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

Liposuction is performed under sedation or general anesthesia depending on the area to be treated and the amount of fat to be extracted. Small incisions are made that are hidden in the underwear marks, through which a solution that reduces bleeding and facilitates fat aspiration is injected. Using a negative pressure system, excess fat is sucked and if necessary it is injected into areas where there is deficiency.

RECOVERY

After the procedure, inflammation of the treated area is normal and ecchymoses (purple) may occur, which usually disappear after three weeks. It is a procedure that requires a disability of 5 to 7 days, after which you can restart your work activities without physical effort. You should use a girdle for a period of 6 weeks to promote skin adhesion.
