Liposuction in Bogotá: Areas and Price

Yes, standard practice. Few patients treat just a single area; most combine several problem zones — abdomen and flanks, for example, or inner and outer thighs. Our surgeons help define the optimal scope of surgery at the consultation, taking into account your health and desired result.

No. Liposuction is not about weight loss. It removes stubborn local fat deposits that diet and exercise can't shift and reshapes body contours. If your weight is unstable, consult a nutritionist or endocrinologist first.

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.

Skin tone, elasticity and turgor are always checked by the surgeon before surgery. Good skin tightens on its own and adapts to the new contours. If the tone is reduced or stretch marks are present, our specialists will recommend preparatory treatments that improve the skin in advance.

No — the procedure is done under anesthesia (local or general, depending on the scope). After surgery mild discomfort is possible; it is relieved with painkillers prescribed by the doctor.

For the first 7 days — no physical exertion or heavy lifting. For 4–6 weeks wear compression garments and avoid bathhouse, sauna, pool and active sport. Alcohol and tanning beds are off-limits for at least a month. Your surgeon gives all individual recommendations after surgery.

Patients aged 18+ with no contraindications can have the surgery. There is no upper age limit; we decide individually after an examination and health assessment.

Not directly. Liposuction removes fat tissue but does not change the skin structure that causes cellulite. Still, improved body contours visibly reduce its appearance.

Most patients return to their usual routine and work in 7–10 days. Swelling and bruising resolve by weeks 4–5. The final result forms in 3–6 months, once the 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, stop smoking, alcohol and medicines that affect blood clotting (aspirin, etc.). You also need pre-op tests: blood tests, ECG, ultrasound, and GP and anesthesiologist consultations. You'll get all instructions after your first consultation.

When the main swelling subsides, 2 weeks after surgery, the first changes become visible. The interim result is assessed at 1.5–2 months and the final contours form in 3–6 months.
