Liposuction in Málaga: Price and Techniques

Yes, it's standard practice. It is rare to treat a single area alone; patients tend to combine problem zones such as abdomen and flanks or inner and outer thighs. Based on your health and desired result, our surgeons will help define the optimal scope of surgery at the consultation.

No. It is not a weight-loss method. Liposuction removes local fat deposits that stay despite diet and exercise, reshaping body contours. When weight is unstable, a nutritionist or endocrinologist should be seen first.

Punctures only 3–7 mm across are all that is needed, usually with no stitches. The marks are barely visible after healing and fade completely with proper care during recovery.

The surgeon always assesses tone, elasticity and turgor of the skin before surgery. In good condition, the skin tightens on its own and follows the new contours. If there are stretch marks or reduced tone, our specialists recommend preparatory treatments to improve the skin in advance.

No — the procedure is performed under anesthesia, either local or general depending on the scope. Afterwards mild discomfort is possible and is relieved by doctor-prescribed painkillers.

No exertion or heavy lifting during the first 7 days. Compression garments for 4–6 weeks, with the bathhouse, sauna, pool and active sport off the table. For at least a month, alcohol and tanning beds are off-limits. Individual recommendations are given by your surgeon after surgery.

We operate from age 18+, if there are no contraindications. There is no upper age limit — after an examination and health assessment, the decision is made individually.

Not directly. While liposuction removes fat tissue, it does not change the skin structure that causes cellulite. Improved body contours still 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.

No strict diet is required, but nutrition matters for keeping the result. Removed fat cells don't come back, but the remaining ones can grow if you gain weight. For a lasting result we recommend a balanced diet and regular exercise.

Yes. 7–10 days before liposuction, stop smoking, alcohol and medications that affect blood clotting (aspirin, etc.). You also need pre-operative tests: blood tests, ECG, ultrasound, and GP and anesthesiologist consultations. You'll receive 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.
