What is liposuction or liposculpture about?

Liposuction is the surgical method to treat localized fat in certain areas of the body.

This procedure allows the plastic surgeon to shape the figure through the extraction of fat or adipose tissue in various places, such as the abdomen, back, double chin and others.

What are the advantages of liposuction?

The great advantage it has is that the body can be shaped according to the patient’s needs, and the extracted fat can be used to increase the volume in the areas that it is needed.

If you are already close to your ideal weight, liposuction can help you eliminate the accumulated fat in specific areas that prevents you from shaping your figure as you would like. Thus, you get to improve, not only your physical appearance, but also your perception of your own appearance and, therefore, your self-esteem.

How is the ideal candidate for a liposculpture?

This type of intervention is ideal for healthy patients who are close to their ideal weight and have localized accumulations of fat with firm and elastic skin. This last aspect is important, since it will depend on the elasticity of the skin that it adapts easily and naturally to the new contour. In principle, it is not recommended for people with respiratory, heart or circulatory problems.

What are the steps prior to liposuction?

As in any surgical intervention, before entering the operating room, each particular case is reviewed. Your medical history is reviewed, to carefully assess whether there is any allergy to medications, the condition of the skin, among others.

How is liposculpture carried out?

This type of treatment is carried out in an operating room, which must have certain standards of safety, hygiene and adequate equipment to face any emergency that may arise.

During the intervention, the fat accumulated in specific areas is extracted. To do this, a small tube, called a cannula, is inserted under the skin in a strategic place in the area to be treated and said fat is suctioned.

What are the steps after surgery?

In general, recovery from liposuction is usually quick and gradual, and there are usually no complications. Both to take care of yourself in the process, and to achieve the desired results, it is very important that you follow all the instructions recommended by the medical team. One of them will be to wear a comprehensive girdle for about a month in order to help your skin adapt to your new figure.

When do you see the results of a liposuction?

You will see the final results in about a month, although it will depend on the time it takes to reduce the inflammation.

In any case, the consultation with Dr. Franklin Peña will help you assess the success of the surgery and which one is the most appropriate according to your physical conditions.
