Liposuction is a surgical technique used to remove localized fat deposits in certain areas of the body, including the face, neck, arms, trunk, abdomen, back, buttocks, hips, thighs, knees and calves; by means of suction. Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure, but a method of removing localized deposits of fatty tissue that do not respond to diet or exercise.
Liposuction improves areas of irregular skin known as “cellulite” and/or fibrosis, but does not eliminate them; and stretch marks do not disappear with lipo. Obese individuals who intend to lose weight should postpone any kind of body contouring surgery until they are able to maintain their weight loss.
Liposuction can be performed as a primary procedure to improve body contouring, or in combination with other surgical techniques, such as facelift, abdominoplasty, thigh lift (cruroplasty), arm lift (brachioplasty) and/or axillary lift; then the time of permanence and return to activity will be the time required by the procedure of greater complexity and care recommendations of the same.
Dr. Hugo Aguilar, highlight that male liposuction HD can be performed as a standalone procedure or combined with other cosmetic surgeries such as breast reduction, breast augmentation or tummy tuck for comprehensive body transformation.
Whoever undergoes this procedure must remain in the city where the procedure is performed for at least 12 days from the day after the surgery, and his or her incapacity will be limited to no more than 10 days, depending also on how the patient feels and the activity he or she engages in. Although you should walk from the first day, you are expected to resume physical activity from day 10, starting with a week of walking, the following week light jogging and after this start physical reconditioning gently and progressively including other types of exercise. The return to work will depend on the activity performed and will have to keep the proportions with respect to the resumption of physical activity.
Taking into account the condition of the skin, a daily postoperative period is performed until it is certain that any possible signs of fibrosis have disappeared, that the skin has reattached and therefore has stopped producing fluid, which could represent at least 30 massages in a row (30 days), after which, 2 to 3 massages per week could begin to be spaced out.
Maintain a positive mental attitude, hydrate very well, drinking at least 4 liters of liquid a day between soups, broths, juices, water and at least 2 pedialyte 75 a day for the first week. Increase the intake of iron-rich foods such as red meat, liver, spinach and include an iron supplement (Anemidox), walk, follow the indications specifically given in terms of postoperative massages, medication, use of girdle, foam or epifoam, table, antiembolic stockings, hyperbaric chamber, attendance to contrroles, etc. Physical activity may be resumed progressively 2 weeks after surgery. Sunbathing may be resumed when the bruises and swelling have disappeared, but not before 3 months.

To prepare for liposuction, consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in the procedure, follow pre-operative instructions closely, maintain a stable weight, quit smoking, arrange for post-operative assistance, and create a comfortable recovery space at home.
The best candidate for liposuction is someone who is close to their ideal body weight, in good overall health, has firm and elastic skin, and has specific areas of localized fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise.
You may start to see initial results from liposuction within a few weeks, but final results typically become noticeable after about three to six months as swelling subsides and the body adjusts.
The results of liposuction can be long-lasting, especially with healthy lifestyle habits, although individual experiences vary depending on factors such as weight fluctuations and aging.
