Body contouring surgery
Body contouring surgery is often necessary to achieve the desired contour after massive weight loss. The interventions are needed when there is excess skin or areas where liposuction results would be insufficient. In many cases, some of the procedures can be combined.
Liposuction
Our body holds a fixed number of fat cells. When frequent weight variations are recorded, these cells increase or decrease in volume. Once a localised fat deposit forms, a state of equilibrium is reached that cannot be modified without external intervention.

After pregnancy or multiple pregnancies, or after weight loss, the skin at the abdomen level may take on the appearance of an inelegantly hanging apron. An abdominoplasty is the intervention that can remove this excess, redrafting the remaining skin and repositioning the navel.

Treats excess skin and fat at the arm level, redrafting the remaining tissues to achieve an attractive arm contour. This intervention is usually requested after massive weight loss.

The purpose of this intervention is to remove excess skin at the thigh level, as well as fat deposits. Ageing or weight loss, whether too sudden, repeated or massive, can cause an aged appearance of the thighs.
See detailsWhy is body contouring surgery important
- Body contouring surgery responds to the need to reshape the silhouette after significant changes in body weight, multiple pregnancies or ageing, offering permanent and natural results.
- The procedures are individualised for each patient, taking into account their unique anatomical characteristics and aesthetic expectations.
- Combining several interventions in the same surgical session allows for a balanced and harmonious body contour to be achieved, with a single recovery period.
- Results are permanent when body weight is kept stable and a healthy lifestyle is adopted postoperatively.
