Tummy Tuck and Liposuction in AQUA plastic surgery
About the clinic
A combined tummy tuck and liposuction at AQUA Plastic Surgery in Natal, Brazil, transforms the midsection by removing excess skin and sculpting fat. This procedure uses advanced VASER technology to achieve high-definition results with less recovery time. Patients benefit from the expertise of a board-certified surgeon who follows a specific method that avoids the use of surgical drains.
Advanced Surgical Techniques
The clinic uses the Lipoabdominoplasty Saldanha technique for these procedures. This method involves less skin undermining than traditional surgeries. It helps preserve the natural contours of the abdomen and maintains better blood flow to the tissues. One major benefit is that Dr. Allan Filgueira has performed these surgeries without drains for over 5 years. This approach lowers the risk of seroma, which is fluid buildup under the skin after surgery.
VASER Ultrasound Liposuction
Body contouring at the clinic often includes VASER ultrasound-assisted liposuction. This technology breaks down fat cells while keeping surrounding tissues intact. It offers up to 53% more skin retraction compared to traditional methods. This helps the skin tighten better over the new body shape. The method also results in less bleeding and bruising for the patient. For those seeking a muscular look, Dr. Allan Filgueira provides Lipo HD and LAD for defined abdominal marking.
Expert Care in Natal
Dr. Allan Filgueira is a plastic surgeon certified by the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery. He completed his residency at Hospital Santa Marcelina and gained specialized body contouring experience in Colombia. The clinic holds official Brazilian medical registrations including CRM-5433 and RQE 2787. Patients traveling to Natal receive full postoperative support to help their recovery away from home.
Important Safety Limits
Patient safety is a priority during every body contouring procedure. The team limits liposuction to a maximum of 5 liters or 7% of the patient's body weight. If a patient is overweight, Dr. Allan Filgueira may advise weight loss before the operation. These standards help achieve the best aesthetic results while protecting the patient's health. Clear communication and support are provided throughout the entire process.

AQUA plastic surgery: more details about the clinic
Medical Credentials and Expertise
Dr. Allan Filgueira, a board-certified plastic surgeon, leads the practice. He earned his medical degree from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte. He then completed a three-year plastic surgery residency at Hospital Santa Marcelina and breast reconstruction training at Pérola Byington Hospital.
The clinic holds official certifications including CRM-5433 and RQE 2787. Dr. Filgueira is a member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery. The surgical team only performs procedures that meet strict safety tolerances.
Breast Surgery and Recovery Protocols
For breast augmentation, the clinic uses the 24hs recovery protocol. Dr. Allan Filgueira has applied this approach since 2017. It helps patients return to daily activities faster after silicone implant surgery.
Specialists plan each procedure based on tissue analysis and individual anatomy. The clinic offers several breast surgery options:
- Breast augmentation with silicone implants
- Mastopexy (breast lift) with or without implants
- Breast reduction
- Fat grafting to the breasts
- Absorbable synthetic meshes for internal support
Surgeons use TIGR Matrix and GalaFLEX absorbable meshes in select cases. These materials provide extra internal reinforcement for longer-lasting results. If a patient has sufficient glandular tissue, the team may recommend a lift without implants.
Body Contouring and Advanced Liposuction
The clinic specializes in high-definition body contouring using VASER lipoaspiration. This technology uses ultrasound probes to emulsify fat before removal, so it causes less trauma to surrounding tissues than traditional liposuction.
Body contouring services include:
- Lipo HD and LAD for defined abdominal marking
- 360-degree liposuction
- Vibrolipoaspiration
- Tumescent liposuction
- Liposculpture for fat redistribution
For abdominoplasty, the clinic uses the lipoabdominoplasty Saldanha technique. This method involves less skin undermining to better preserve natural abdominal contours. The practice has avoided surgical drains for at least six years. As a result, fluid buildup is rare.
Technology and Equipment
The VASER system serves as the primary platform for all ultrasound-assisted fat reduction. Surgeons also use vibration-assisted devices for large-volume liposuction. Every surgery includes a consultation to create a plan centered on realistic expectations.
International Patient Support
The clinic provides full postoperative support for international patients. The team emphasizes clear communication and safety monitoring during initial recovery. While specific hotel or transit partnerships aren't listed, staff coordinate closely with travelers to manage aftercare. Patients receive recovery plans that account for the logistical needs of traveling for surgery.
