Liposculpture

We reshape your body contour

What is liposculpture?

Liposculpture is a surgical technique that allows you to correct those body areas where stubborn fat deposits persist that you cannot eliminate with diet or exercise and require a procedure that can address them.

It is a very effective technique for providing a new body contour with minimal and almost imperceptible scarring.

The extracted fat does not reappear because the fat cells have been completely removed, making it a permanent treatment with very good results.

This does not happen with other non-surgical techniques (ultrasound, cavitation), which only manage to empty the fat cell but do not eliminate it, so every so often the fat returns and it is necessary to invest again in a procedure.

What does the procedure involve?

The removal of excess fat in the affected body area (abdomen, hips, thighs, knees or chest area) is done by aspirating it with fine cannulas that are inserted through small incisions into the fat deposits located under the skin, eliminating the fat clusters.

All liposuctions are performed at Quirón Teknon Hospital with our Human Med BODI-JET liposuctor, which allows us to extract fat more easily by pressure water avoiding hematomas and giving more bearable postoperatives with the best results.

In cases where it is necessary to improve skin retraction, we have advanced technologies such as BodyTite, which uses radiofrequency to tighten the skin, or argon plasma, which facilitates tissue contraction.

These tools allow to optimize the results, ensuring a harmonious body remodeling and according to the expectations of each patient.
