Liposuction
Is a technique that uses a suction cannula to remove fat deposits from the body and face, restoring more defined contours. Liposuction can be combined with other surgeries, such as abdominal surgery (abdominoplasty).
The recovery period requires rest, wearing elastic mesh, avoiding lifting weights, waiting to be cleared to perform physical activities, and lymphatic drainage.
Be aware that no type of liposuction is indicated for weight loss. Its main purpose is to remove localized and accumulated fat.
Does liposuction help you lose weight?
The purpose of liposuction is to remove localized fat to give the body a better contour and should never be performed with the aim of losing weight. The procedure can be performed in areas where fat accumulates, such as the abdomen, flanks, back, legs, arms and face.
What you should know is that there is a safe limit of fat that can be removed with each liposuction. The range is 5 to 7% of the patient's weight. If your goal is to lose weight, a specialized medical evaluation is necessary to indicate clinical or surgical treatment for this purpose.
Lipo HD
High Definition Liposuction (Lipo HD) is an advancement in traditional liposuction. It is a procedure that can enhance the muscular contours of the abdominal region, making it more defined, as it reinforces the removal of fat between the muscles, making them more visible.
This procedure is recommended for men and women who cannot achieve muscle definition through physical exercise, have an ideal weight for their height or are very close to it, without excess fat or a high degree of flaccidity.
In addition to the abdomen, the high definition technique can be performed on other areas of the body such as: chest, back, arms, flanks, thighs and buttocks.
Lipo HD can be performed together with other surgeries such as: Mommy makeover, mammoplasty, abdominoplasty and facial surgeries.
Recovery from Lipo HD is no different from traditional lipo, and it is necessary to respect the rest period, use elastic mesh, avoid lifting weights, wait for clearance to perform physical activities and perform lymphatic drainage.
Soft Lipo
Soft Lipo is one of the types of liposuction aimed at women who want less pronounced curves and softer, more feminine results.
Unlike HD Lipo, which aims to highlight the muscular contours of the abdominal region, making the abs more evident.
Liposculpture
Liposculpture is derived from liposuction, with the difference that the fat removed returns to specific parts of the body.
Liposuction removes excess localized fat, and then this fat is treated and injected into the areas where you want to reshape and increase volume, such as the buttocks, breasts, and face.
Advantages:
There is no rejection since it is a material from the body itself
Natural results
Improvement in the quality of the skin in the fat grafted area due to the stem cells contained in the material
Lower cost when compared to the use of fillers
Ultrasonic liposuction
Ultrasonic liposuction is a procedure that can remove fat deposits in target areas, causing minimal damage to the region and providing a better post-operative outcome.
The sound waves vibrate the fat, which is then easily removed by suction, allowing the surgeon to more easily sculpt the body.
Vaser technology combined with liposuction (Vaser lipo) improves the aesthetic result and gives contours an athletic and natural appearance.
