Dr. Guillermo Lorenzo - Plastic Surgeon

This cosmetic technique can be called the no-scalpel surgery. It molds the body while eliminating the fat volumes that disfigures it. It´s suitable for people at all ages, but is very common among young people that having a seemingly normal weight, can’t eliminate the accumulation of fat with exercises, nor with strong diets.

All patients who have belly scars (which are below the navel) are eliminated with this procedure. The ones above the navel are minimized by 60% due to stretching.

Is surgery only used to change the shape?
NO, the external shape of the nose and its function (the passage of breath), can be improved in the same proceeding if you have a problem in this matter (deviated septum).

How long does the result of lifting last?
Usually it lasts between 8 to 10 years, but when patients maintain good hydration and healthy eating, the results can last much longer.

Where are you going to place my prosthesis?
There are many areas for a possible breast implant placement, such as submuscular (under the muscle), subglandular (under the gland), subfascial or in mixed planes. Therefore each patient evaluates with our advice, which one of all suits best their particular case. We place retro muscular implants in most cases (95%) because of the short and long term benefits patients will have.

What scar will remain?
It depends a lot of the technique to use. Usually in a mastopexy, the shape of scar left is an inverted L or inverted J, if it´s with implant placement it would only leave a vertical scar and not horizontal.

Can I place myself injections in my buttocks after surgery?
NO, every patient undergoing a process of fat injection or buttocks implant should not inject any medication because it could pierce the implant, and if it is fat, the medication is not going to be properly absorbed and will not have the desired effect.
