BodyTite is an advanced technique that focuses not only on fat removal but also on skin tightening and combating sagging. Developed from years of research in body remodeling, this method uses radiofrequency to achieve results comparable to traditional cosmetic surgery, but without the incisions and scars associated with invasive procedures.

How does BodyTite work?

The essence of BodyTite lies in the combination of radiofrequency with lipolysis. Through tiny probes, radiofrequency energy is transmitted that melts the fat while simultaneously stimulating collagen production. This results in firmer, more toned skin, offering remarkable results in short sessions.

What is the recovery time for liposuction?

Return to desk work in 7–10 days, light exercise at 3–4 weeks. Final results at 3–6 months after swelling resolves.

Can I have multiple areas in one session?

Yes, Lipo 360 treats 2–4 areas in a single session. Total extraction volume and anesthesia time are the safety limits.

Can I combine liposuction with BBL?

Yes. Fat extracted is purified and re-injected into the gluteal area in the same surgical day. Lipo + BBL pricing: $6,500–$8,500 USD.

How long do I need to stay in Medellín for liposuction?

10–14 days total: pre-op day, surgery, recovery hotel with daily nursing and lymphatic massage, and clearance to fly home.

Techniques

Liposuction techniques we perform

Dr. Daniela selects the technique based on your anatomy, the treatment area, and your recovery priorities. All four options are available depending on what fits your case best.

VASER Liposuction

Ultrasound-assisted technique that emulsifies fat before removal. Results in less bruising, shorter recovery, and better skin retraction. Ideal for defined areas (abdomen, flanks) and patients seeking athletic definition.

Microaire PAL

Power-assisted liposuction with oscillating cannula. Precise, controlled fat extraction with minimal tissue trauma. Preferred for fibrosis prevention and revision cases after prior liposuction.

Lipo 360

Circumferential contouring of the entire torso: upper and lower abdomen, flanks, back, and waist. The most requested procedure for hourglass silhouette. Performed in a single surgical day.

BodyTite / J-Plasma

Radiofrequency-assisted skin tightening combined with liposuction. Recommended when mild to moderate skin laxity would limit results. Replaces the need for a skin excision (tummy tuck) in selected cases.

FAQ

Liposuction frequently asked questions

What's the recovery time for liposuction?

Most patients return to desk work 7–10 days after surgery and to light exercise at 3–4 weeks. Final results appear progressively as swelling resolves — typically 3 to 6 months. Wearing the surgical garment as prescribed and attending lymphatic massage sessions significantly accelerates recovery.

Will I lose weight with liposuction?

Liposuction is a body contouring procedure, not a weight loss procedure. Expect 2–5 kg of fat removal in a typical case, which translates to a visible shape change but not major scale change. For patients seeking weight loss, we recommend stabilizing your weight first and using liposuction to refine the remaining contour.

Can I have multiple areas treated in one session?

Yes, most liposuction surgeries treat 2–4 areas in a single session — this is what Lipo 360 is. The total extraction volume and the time under anesthesia are the limiting factors, not the number of areas. Dr. Daniela evaluates the safe extraction volume during your consultation.

Can I combine liposuction with a BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift)?

Yes, and it's very common. The fat extracted in liposuction is purified and re-injected into the gluteal area during the same surgical day. Pricing for Lipo + BBL is $6,500–$8,500 USD.

Does liposuction remove visceral fat?

No. Liposuction only removes subcutaneous fat (the layer below the skin). Visceral fat (around the organs) cannot be removed surgically — it responds to diet, exercise, and metabolic interventions. If visceral fat is your primary concern, we'll discuss non-surgical alternatives first.

Do I need a surgical garment after?

Yes. A medical compression garment is essential for the first 4–6 weeks. It controls swelling, shapes the new contour as it heals, and prevents fluid accumulation. The surgical garment is included in the price.

How long do I need to stay in Medellín?

10–14 days total. This covers pre-op (day 1), surgery + observation (day 2), recovery hotel stay with daily nursing and lymphatic massage (days 3–10), and medical clearance to fly home.
