Advanced Liposuction and Body Contouring in Puebla
For many, achieving an ideal body shape involves more than just losing weight; it requires proportion and contour. Modern liposuction has evolved into liposculpture, a technique focused on creating a more aesthetic figure. Dr. Roberto Segovia specializes in these advanced body sculpting procedures. At his practice in Puebla, Mexico, he uses modern devices like the Lipolaser to help patients achieve a look they love.
Understanding Body Contouring with Liposuction
Liposuction is a technique for removing excess fat tissue from specific parts of the body, but it is not meant as a weight-loss method. As the procedure was refined, it evolved into liposculpture. This is because the goal is not just to remove fat but to sculpt the body into a more harmonious and aesthetically pleasing shape.
Liposculpture aims to even out different parts of the body, giving the patient a nicer look and helping them feel better about their image. This can involve removing fat from some areas and sometimes injecting it into others, such as the buttocks, to enhance volume and shape. Lipolaser is a key technology used to perform this advanced procedure.
Key Benefits of Liposuction with Lipolaser
Using Lipolaser technology for body sculpting offers several distinct advantages beyond traditional methods. The primary benefits include:
- Precise Sculpting: Allows for detailed contouring and definition.
- Enhanced Skin Tightening: The laser energy stimulates collagen production, helping to firm the skin in the treated area for a smoother result.
- Gentler Fat Removal: Liquefying the fat before removal can lead to less bruising and a smoother recovery.
- Natural Enhancement: Offers the option to use your own fat to enhance other areas, like the buttocks or hips.
Who is a Candidate for Liposculpture?
Good candidates for liposculpture are men and women who are near their ideal weight but struggle with disproportionate fat deposits. This procedure is for refining your shape, not for significant weight reduction.
An ideal candidate should also:
- Be in good overall health and a non-smoker.
- Have good skin elasticity to adapt to the new contours.
- Hold realistic expectations for what the procedure can achieve.
What Happens During the Procedure?
The procedure may be performed with sedation combined with local anesthesia and spinal block, or under general anesthesia. Its duration depends on the number and size of the areas being treated. Before fat removal, a specialized solution is injected to reduce bleeding and make extraction easier. Dr. Segovia then uses cannulas of varying widths to carefully suction out the fat.
The incisions are very small and made in areas of the body commonly covered with underwear. After some time, they are almost invisible. Some bruising is to be expected after surgery, and it will disappear in about seven to ten days.
Recovery Timeline and Post Surgery Care
We highly advise patients to wear a girdle for four weeks so the skin can better adapt to its new contour. A couple of days after surgery, relative rest is advisable; then, the patient can gradually return to her regular activities. We recommend having lymphatic drainage done after the first week to reduce swelling faster.
How Much Does Liposuction Cost in Puebla, Mexico?
The cost of the procedure is determined by factors including the amount of fat that needs to be removed and the target areas. During a consultation, we’ll discuss the details of the treatment plan and the total cost associated with your liposuction surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions About Liposuction
Is liposculpture a weight-loss solution?
No, it is not a method for weight loss. Liposculpture aims to remove stubborn pockets of fat and reshape specific body contours.
Can the removed fat be used elsewhere on the body?
Yes. This is a key benefit of liposculpture. The fat that is removed can be purified and carefully injected into other areas to add volume or improve shape, most commonly the buttocks (in a procedure known as a Brazilian Butt Lift) or the hips.
What other procedures can be combined with liposculpture?
Liposculpture is often performed with other procedures for comprehensive body contouring. For instance, it can be paired with a tummy tuck to address excess fat and loose abdominal skin simultaneously. It may also be combined with BodyTite to further enhance skin tightening in the treated areas for an optimal final result.
Is the liposuction procedure painful?
The procedure is performed under anesthesia to make sure that you are comfortable and feel no pain. Post-operative discomfort is typically mild and is often compared to the soreness felt after a strenuous workout. This can be managed effectively with prescribed medication.
How long do the results of liposculpture last?
The results can be long-lasting. The fat cells that are removed are gone permanently. However, to maintain your new sculpted shape, it is crucial to maintain a stable weight and a healthy lifestyle.
