Fat Reduction in Amato Plastic Surgery
About the clinic
Fat reduction at Amato Plastic Surgery in São Paulo, Brazil, combines advanced surgical techniques with radiofrequency and ultrasound technologies. The clinic is known for its high safety standards, holding accreditations from TEMOS and the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP). Patients benefit from a personalized approach that addresses both stubborn fat and skin laxity in a specialized surgical setting.
Advanced Fat Reduction Methods
The clinic uses several technologies to improve results beyond traditional liposuction. These methods help shape the body while protecting surrounding tissues. The available options include:
- VASER Liposuction: This ultrasound tool breaks down fat cells while keeping nerves and blood vessels safe. It helps reduce pain and bruising after surgery.
- BodyTite: This device uses radiofrequency to heat fat and skin. It can achieve up to 35% immediate skin contraction to prevent sagging.
- Morpheus8 Body: A microneedling treatment that uses heat to improve skin texture and firmness after fat removal.
- Ultrasonic Cavitation: Tools like LipoSound or SAFER allow for precise fat removal with very little trauma to the body.

Dr. Fernando Amato leads the plastic surgery team with over 15 years of experience in reconstructive and aesthetic procedures. He holds a Master’s degree in Tissue Regeneration and an MBA in Healthcare Management.

Safety and Recovery
Surgeries take place at the Amato Day Hospital. This facility includes a dedicated unit for anesthesia recovery and a specialized medical team to monitor patients throughout their stay. This setup helps make the transition from surgery to recovery as smooth as possible. After the procedure, patients receive a care plan that includes:
- Wearing medical compression garments to support the new body contours.
- Lymphatic drainage sessions to reduce swelling.
- Cold therapy to manage discomfort during the first few days.
- Scheduled follow-up visits to track healing progress.
Most patients return to light activities within a few days, though full recovery depends on the amount of fat removed. You can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss a personalized treatment plan.

Amato Plastic Surgery: more details about the clinic
Accreditations and Specialist Credentials
The clinic maintains affiliations with major international and national organizations. These include the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). TEMOS accredits it for international patient care standards. The practice is led by Dr. Fernando Amato, who holds specialist registrations CRM/SP 133826 and RQE 51573.
Dr. Fernando Amato completed his medical training and plastic surgery residency at the Federal University of São Paulo. He is a member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP). His surgical approach relies on evidence-based protocols and individualized planning. Every patient receives a detailed written discussion of risks and expectations before any procedure.
Reconstructive and Aesthetic Breast Surgery
The practice is a reference center for post-mastectomy breast reconstruction and oncologic repairs. Surgeons perform both immediate and delayed reconstructions. Techniques include autologous flaps, tissue expanders, and silicone implants. The final stage often involves areola reconstruction using 3D tattooing for a natural appearance.
Aesthetic breast procedures cover a wide range of patient needs:
- Breast augmentation using Motiva implants with integrated microchips
- Mastopexy (breast lift) with or without implants
- Complex breast reduction cases, including tissue removal exceeding 1.9 kg
- Correction of tuberous breasts and breast asymmetry
- Specialized breast implant removal (explant) services
Patients undergoing breast reconstruction typically stay 1–4 days. Drains are usually removed within 14 days. Most return to work after 3 weeks.
Body Contouring and Specialized Treatments
The clinic offers surgical management for lipedema and post-bariatric body remodeling. Lipedema treatment involves 12–24 hours of hospitalization. Patients begin lymphatic drainage within 7 days and use compression therapy for up to 60 days. Body contouring for post-bariatric patients includes abdominoplasty variants like the 360-degree circumferential lift.
For male patients, the clinic provides gynecomastia surgery using a specific quilting technique. Dr. Fernando Amato developed this adhesion-suture method through his own scientific research. It reduces fluid buildup and often eliminates the need for surgical drains. Most patients return to light activities within 21 days.
Advanced Surgical Technologies
The surgical workflow integrates several energy-based platforms for better skin retraction and contouring. The clinic uses BodyTite and Morpheus8 for radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis and tissue remodeling. Surgeons also use VASER and LipoSound technologies for precise fat emulsification. Facial procedures may include endoscopic lifting and CO2 laser resurfacing.
International Patient Services
Amato Plastic Surgery provides structured planning for patients traveling from abroad. The clinic offers online consultations to review medical history and standardized photos. The team helps with recovery logistics, including discounted rates at partner hotels in São Paulo. Support is available in Portuguese, English, and Spanish.
Postoperative care includes a direct communication channel via a dedicated WhatsApp group. This connects the patient, nursing team, and surgeon for continuous guidance. The clinic schedules follow-up reviews at 6 and 12 months to monitor long-term results at no extra cost.
