Liposuction in Barcelona: Areas and Price

Yes, that's standard. Treating only one area is rare — usually several problem zones are combined, like the abdomen with the flanks or the inner with the outer thighs. At the consultation, our surgeons define the optimal scope of surgery according to your health and the result you want.

No. Liposuction won't make you lose weight. Its aim is to remove local fat that resists diet and exercise and to reshape your contours. If your weight is not stable, see a nutritionist or endocrinologist beforehand.

Punctures of only 3–7 mm are used, and they usually don't need stitches. After healing the marks are hardly visible; with good aftercare during recovery they fade completely.

Before the operation, the surgeon always assesses skin tone, elasticity and turgor. If the skin is in good condition, it tightens on its own around the new contours. For reduced tone or stretch marks, our specialists recommend preparatory treatments to improve the skin in advance.

No — the procedure is done under anesthesia, local or general depending on the scope. Mild discomfort is possible after surgery and is relieved with painkillers prescribed by the doctor.

In the first 7 days there should be no physical exertion or heavy lifting. Compression garments are worn for 4–6 weeks, and the bathhouse, sauna, pool and active sport are avoided. No alcohol or tanning beds for at least a month. Your surgeon provides all individual recommendations after surgery.

Patients 18+ with no contraindications are eligible. There's no upper age limit, and the decision is made individually after examination and a health assessment.

Not directly. Liposuction deals with fat tissue, not with the skin structure behind cellulite. Still, better body contours make it visibly less apparent.

The majority of patients go back to work and their normal routine within 7–10 days. Swelling and bruising disappear by weeks 4–5, and it takes 3–6 months for the final result to form as tissues fully adapt.

A strict diet isn't necessary, though nutrition is important to maintain the result. The fat cells removed won't return, but those left can enlarge if you put on weight. A balanced diet and regular physical activity keep the result lasting.

Yes. 7–10 days before liposuction, give up smoking, alcohol and any medications affecting blood clotting (aspirin, etc.). Pre-operative tests are also needed — blood tests, ECG, ultrasound, GP and anesthesiologist consultations. We give you all instructions after your first consultation.

Changes start to show 2 weeks after surgery, once the main swelling has gone. At 1.5–2 months the interim result is assessed, and in 3–6 months the final contours form.
