Liposculpture in Uberlândia, Brazil

Precision body sculpting that highlights each body's natural curves.

About the Procedure

Liposculpture

Liposculpture removes localized fat deposits and redefines body contour, and can be combined with fat grafting to add volume in specific areas.

It is a contouring procedure, not a weight-loss one — planning takes into account skin quality, fat distribution and each patient's body structure.

Compression garments and close post-operative follow-up are an essential part of recovery.

What to Consider
  • Indicated for patients already close to their desired weight who want contour definition.
  • Assessment of skin quality and fat distribution at the consultation.
  • Can be combined with fat grafting to the buttocks or other areas.
  • Use of a compression garment and scheduled post-operative follow-up.
Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Liposculpture

Does liposculpture cause weight loss?

No. The procedure reshapes body contour — it does not replace a balanced diet and physical activity.

How many areas can be treated in the same surgery?

This depends on individual clinical assessment and will be safely defined during the consultation.

When is the result visible?

Initial swelling is part of the process; final definition reveals itself over the following months.

What type of anesthesia is used for liposculpture?

Usually general anesthesia or spinal anesthesia combined with sedation; the anesthesiology team determines the best option based on the extent of the treated area and the preoperative evaluation.

How long does the surgery take?

It varies according to the number and extent of areas treated and whether fat grafting is combined with the procedure; the duration is estimated during individual surgical planning.

How much rest is needed right after surgery?

The first few days usually call for relative rest, with short, frequent walks recommended to support circulation while avoiding physical strain.

When can I return to work?

It depends on the type of activity — desk-based work is typically resumed sooner than roles requiring abdominal effort or heavy lifting, always following medical clearance.

When can I drive again?

Driving generally requires the swelling and tenderness in the treated area to subside first, with clearance assessed individually at a follow-up visit.

When can I resume physical exercise?

Light activity is usually cleared before higher-impact exercise or movements that directly engage the treated muscle area; a full return is gradual and monitored by the medical team.

How long do I need to wear the compression garment?

Duration is determined individually, but it typically continues for a few weeks and may be adjusted based on how swelling progresses and guidance given at follow-up visits.

What can I expect from the liposculpture scars?

Incisions are small and placed at strategic points; they tend to fade and mature over several months, though healing varies from person to person.

Is there a risk of skin contour irregularities after liposculpture?

It is a possible risk, particularly in skin with less elasticity or uneven retraction, which is why assessing skin quality is part of the individualized planning done during the consultation.
