Testimonials

The combination of good eating habits and reintegration of physical activities always optimize results. In this case, we performed a tummy tuck and vaser liposculpture with better than expected results, thanks to your excellent care, congratulations to our dear patient; It is worth remembering that we do not perform liposuction on the front part of the abdomen, as usual, to respect the vascularity of the flap, avoid complications and have better healing. In some cases where the patient manages a % of greater fat, we can recommend liposuction of that region, 6 months later, in search of further improving a result. ?? #plasticsurgery #cirugiaplastica #tummytuck #liposculpture #liposuction #abdominoplasty

One of the many cases in which the aesthetic and functional part can be successfully improved in the same intervention.
In the case of this patient with a considerable degree of diastasis, due to pregnancy, a navel with excess skin around it, abdominoplasty was the best treatment option. We perform plication of diastasis recti, reconstruction of the navel and liposuction of fat on the flanks.
Although this surgery does not have the objective of eliminating the scars on the abdomen, due to the effect of removing the excess skin, we take away a good part, which makes a general improvement appear. Congratulations to our patient for her excellent care and her improvement in her diet. #plasticsurgery #cirugiaplastica #tummytuck #abdominoplasty

In each procedure we dedicate time to two large areas: reconstructive and aesthetic, depending on the pre-surgical evaluation of each patient and their wishes, we choose to divide the procedures that are necessary to achieve the proposed results.
In the case of this patient, we performed abdominoplasty, vaser liposculpture, mastopexy with implants, and lipomarking in two surgical times 6 months apart. We make sure to respect the recovery process of the reconstructive part and we allow ourselves to dedicate enough time to the details for a safe, less invasive and beautiful result.
With the abdominoplasty we limit the liposuction of the flap or part of the front of the abdomen to take care of its vascularity.
Thanks to the patient for trusting us!

In post-pregnancy patients where there is sagging rectus abdominis muscle (diastasis) + sagging skin, the best treatment option will always be a tummy tuck with umbilical reconstruction.
When the levels of flaccidity or fat are low, it is almost never understood as a necessity to undergo surgery, but we are sure that in our 47-year-old patient, after 2 pregnancies, she will show off a transformed and natural version of herself time, it has been a good decision. We commonly see this in our office. We are very happy with the postoperative evolution of this patient at 5 months.

Abdominoplasty is the only definitive solution to correct diastasis and abdominal flaccidity after several pregnancies.
In this case it was combined with a liposculpture, presenting 3 months of post-surgical recovery. Congratulations to our patient for her excellent care, remembering that good nutrition and exercise are the best complement to improve a result, since surgery can never be to lose weight.
This type of procedure can be performed with a BMI less than 28, but the ideal is to be less than 26 bmi like our patient?? #plasticsurgery #cirugiaplastica #abdominoplasty #tummile

In cases of breast reduction, the objective, in addition to reducing size, skin and weight, is to be able to remodel them in proportion to the patient's body. In this type of surgery we remove the largest possible amount of breast tissue but always respecting the limits allowed to take care of its functionality. Something super important in surgeries where tissue resection is large, is to pay greater care and respect in post-operative care to healing so that it is adequate and good. #cirugiaplastica #plasticsurgery

Surgery performed, Abdominoplasty
The results of a tummy tuck almost always exceed our own expectations, thanks to the commitment of patients to improve their eating habits and physical activity, demonstrating that plastic surgery is a choice of well-being and self-esteem; Surgery alone is not enough to achieve our goal, from the day of consultation to the post-op phase, it is a team effort.

This case allows us to address several important issues such as:
1. Diastasis of the abdominal recti post multiple pregnancies.
2. Being a patient with low fat %, we can combine the Abdominoplasty with the mastopexy + implants, since we only work the entire front part of the patient, this reduces surgical time which gives us a better postoperative period. (didn't need anything else??)
3. A tummy tuck can have results as natural as any other procedure.
We were able to combine the tummy tuck with a breast lift with implants as it was a plan that did not require other procedures; All procedures are different and all of them, depending on their level of complexity, will have a different duration, which is why a good preoperative evaluation is very important, in order to find the best solution with the greatest possible security.
Congratulations to our patient for her excellent care at 4 months post-op #abdominoplasty #tummytuck #plasticsurgery #cirugiaplastica #dermolipectomy #breastsurgery

Our patient was concerned about the aesthetic appearance of her abdomen due to previous scars from her pregnancies. In addition to aesthetics, her pregnancies had left diastasis and abdominal flaccidity, qualifying for a tummy tuck, which was also combined with Vaser Liposculpture + abdominal muscle reconstruction, skin resection to remove flaccidity and fat in the lower and mid-abdomen areas. , which makes it possible for no traces of the appearance of the anterior abdomen to remain. It is a beautiful case, and we congratulate our patient on her excellent care. ?? #plasticsurgery #cirugiaplastica #tummytuck #abdominoplasty #lipovaser

In this patient we performed a breast lift (mastopexy) with implants, vaser liposculpture, lipotransference and subtle definition of abdominal muscles, according to her percentage of body fat.
The patient presented a little flaccidity, which does not come out with liposuction, but visually improves, even though she has 2 pregnancies; A good complete evaluation is important, to evaluate diastasis and flaccidity, it is often necessary to remove skin, for a better result. Thank you for your excellent care!???? gym and good nutrition from now on?? #liposculpture #vaserlipo #liposculpture #breastlift #plasticsurgery #cirugiaplastica

The only definitive solution to remove excess skin and fat as a result of pregnancy or great weight loss that affect the muscles of the abdomen, is the Abdominoplasty. Although it is not a procedure to treat obesity or lose weight, and it is a complex procedure, incompatible with certain pre-existing health conditions; It is a transformation that inspires a better quality of life for our patients. We congratulate our patient on a responsible and satisfactory recovery. #plasticsurgery #cirugiaplastica #tummytuck #abdominoplasty #abdominoplasty #liposculpture #lipo #vaser #lipovaser

?In a tummy tuck can we rebuild the abdominal wall? diastasis? and remove the flaccidity of the patient. The goal is always to repair from an aesthetic and functional point of view to achieve the best long-term results. In the case of this patient, the transformation is evident because the excess of flaccid skin tarnished the rest of her body, which was already beautiful, being able to restore a young and natural appearance. #cirugiaplastica #plasticsurgery #tummytuck #abdominoplasty #lipo #liposculpture #vaser

By performing a #liposculpture #vaser we can not only remove excess localized fat, but also sculpt the silhouette to achieve a better appearance. The important thing is to achieve a natural and proportional appearance, which with time improves more and more based on good nutrition and exercise. This patient, 3 months after surgery, shows a beautiful result thanks to your excellent care, congratulations ???? #liposuction #plasticsurgery #cirugiaplastica #bbl #

In this patient we performed a liposculpture with natural abdominal marking, where the main objective was to extract the greatest amount of localized fat to obtain a better silhouette. In it, we also satisfactorily managed to highlight the shadows and natural reliefs of its abdominal contour, to show off the features of an altetic body, visually improving the appearance of postpartum diastasis, which some can only correct with abdominoplasty. In each surgery we seek to inspire and motivate our patients to a better lifestyle, so that their results are also maintained. #cirugiaplastica #plasticsurgery #lipovaser #lipo #liposculpt

When plastic surgery is combined with a lifestyle change, improving diet + exercises??
The way we do liposuction has evolved over time thanks to Vaser technology, where with the use of ultrasound we emulsify the fat to extract it, obtaining better results in skin retraction and therefore a better adaptation to the new body contour. reducing bleeding and recovery time. #cirugiaplastica #plasticsurgery #liposuction #lipo #vaser #liposculpt #liposculpting

The patient shares a photo with us showing the good recovery she has had from her Abdominoplasty and Liposculpture. They will be able to appreciate that her abdomen had more flaccidity than fat after her pregnancies and that reconstruction was possible including the navel. Flaccidity cannot be eliminated by exercise or any treatment as definitively as removing and cutting it through Abdominoplasty. Note that the tattoo was removed in the process. Certainly recovering the figure is possible, and maintaining and improving it is part of the process. 3 months post op.

Our patient after her two pregnancies presented significant distension of her abdominal muscles, which is known as abdominal diastasis. By performing the plication of the recti and eliminating excess flaccid skin with the abdominoplasty, we found the best solution for her aesthetically and functionally, combining it with liposculpture, to obtain a result that would make her look and feel more comfortable. From now on, good eating habits and exercises will allow you to preserve your result. #abdominoplasty #liposculpture #vaser #plasticsurgery #cirugiaplastica
