Liposuction has become one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in Argentina and in the world. It is a surgical technique that removes excess fat deposits from specific areas. Liposuction involves the use of a cannula which is introduced in the body through tiny incisions. These incisions are placed to be as inconspicuous as possible, so that they cannot be seen when wearing a bathing suit.
The procedure can be performed on any area of the body, being the most commonly treated:
Abdomen
Flanks
Back
Arms
Thighs (inner and outer thigh)
Knees
Jowls
Pectoral area in men
Liposuction improves body contour, so it is a necessary condition for the patient to have elastic skin, so that this one can easily adapt to the new body outline, otherwise it might be required to eliminate the excess skin afterwards.
To help skin contract to the new body contour, patients will be required to wear compression garments for the period of one month after surgery
When fat deposits produce a sustained and intense stretching of the skin, both, fat and skin excess need to be removed.
The area more commonly treated is the abdomen, after pregnancy, obesity, or illnesses that produce important weight gain. Once weight loss and stabilization is achieved, a dermolipectomy can be performed to remove excess skin and underlying fat. If necessary, the muscles are also repaired. The name "dermolipectomy" refers to both, the removal of skin and fat excess, therefore, the procedure can be performed on other areas of the body, like arms and thighs. Dermolipectomy can be carried out in conjunction with liposuction in the same operating procedure.
The incisions are placed to be as inconspicuous as possible, so that they are not noticeable even when wearing underwear or bathing suit.
Breast augmentation is an operation to enlarge and enhance a woman's breasts. This is done by putting an implant behind the mammary gland or under one of the chest wall muscles. The results of a breast augmentation should be a breast size and shape which is harmonious with the overall body physique. The size of the implant has to suit the height, the diameter of the patient's thorax and thighs, as well as the patient's wishes and goals.
Implants are placed through incisions that can be performed around the nipple, at the bottom half of the aureole, or under the breast mound, in the natural crease which is formed when the breast meets the lower chest wall. Incisions will leave scars that will be visible immediately following the surgery, but they will fade out as time goes by, until they become imperceptible.

Breast reduction is a surgical procedure which involves the reduction in the size and weight of breasts.To this end, excess of the glandular tissue and skin are removed, while another procedure is used simultaneously to counteract drooping of the breasts, aiming to return them to their natural position.
The incisions are placed to be as inconspicuous as possible, so that scars are not very noticeable afterwards. They are usually performed around the aureole and, depending on the breast size, they can extend downward, following the natural curve of the breast. The reason for such a large incision is that, occasionally, it might be necessary to remove a kilogram or more of glandular tissue. When this happens, the shoulders and the spinal column are released from a significant amount of weight and symptoms like, pain of the neck, back, and shoulders disappear. Whilst adding to patient's general comfort and boosting self esteem, a breast reduction will also improve other aspects of life, such as sports, physical exercise, and everyday activities.
Sometimes, and for causes like breastfeeding, the breast can just lose firmness and drop. In these cases, there might be no need to remove any breast tissue and instead, a breast lift is performed aiming to raise and firm the bust, readjusting the skin and tissues.
Gynecomastia is the enlargement of male breast producing a feminine aspect.
With the help of an ultrasound scan and / or mammogram the doctor studies the gland and diagnoses what the problem is. Sometimes only fat, without a gland is found, other times, both, gland and fat coexist. Once the problem is identified, the surgeon will decide which the best technique to be used is: resection or liposuction. In both cases, tiny incisions are performed and they are barely noticeable.
