The Liposuction Procedure
The surgery focuses on the back but can also treat the arms, thighs, and double chin. The medical team uses thin cannulas and tumescent infiltration. This method involves injecting a liquid solution to firm up the fat before removal. The procedure details include:
- Anesthesia: The team uses either general or epidural anesthesia.
- Surgery Duration: The operation takes between 1 and 3 hours.
- Hospital Stay: Patients usually stay in the hospital for 12 to 24 hours.
- Technique: Precise fat removal through tiny incisions to minimize scarring.
Preparation and Recovery
Patients must meet specific health requirements before the surgery. This includes having a stable weight and finishing all lab exams and heart evaluations. You must stop smoking 30 days before the procedure. It is also important to avoid aspirin and anti-inflammatory medicine for 15 days before the surgery starts. An 8-hour fast is required on the day of the operation.
Recovery follows a structured plan to help with healing. Most patients return to light activities within 7 to 10 days. You must wear a compression garment for 30 to 60 days to support the new body shape. Lymphatic drainage sessions start on the third day after surgery. Patients should avoid sun exposure for 60 days and wait at least 30 days before starting heavy exercise. Follow-up visits take place at the clinic in Barra da Tijuca to monitor your progress.

clinic Bem-te-vi — plastic surgeon at Barra da Tijuca: more details about the clinic
Clinic Bem-te-vi is a single-doctor plastic surgery practice in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Located in the Barra da Tijuca neighborhood, it operates from a dedicated facility in the Shopping Downtown complex. The clinic offers aesthetic treatments that combine hospital-based surgeries with non-surgical regenerative protocols.
Accreditations and Professional Qualifications
The clinic holds accreditation from TEMOS. Dr. Juliana Santos, the founder, is a Membro Titular of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP).
With over 12 years of medical training, Dr. Santos oversees every stage of patient care. This includes consultations, surgical planning, and long-term postoperative monitoring. All surgical procedures are performed in accredited hospitals in Rio de Janeiro with complete anesthesia teams.
Plastic Surgery and Aesthetic Procedures
The clinic provides surgical options for facial and body rejuvenation. For patients with moderate sagging, mini-lifting offers a shorter-recovery alternative to a full facelift. Breast surgeries are tailored to individual needs and include:
- Breast augmentation with silicone implants
- Breast reduction
- Mastopexy (breast lift) with or without implants
- Explant of breast implants
Breast lift procedures typically take 1.5 to 3 hours. Most patients leave the hospital within 12 to 24 hours after surgery. Full recovery generally requires wearing a surgical bra for up to 60 days.
For male patients, the clinic treats gynecomastia (enlarged male breast tissue). Dr. Santos uses lipoaspiration, glandular resection, or both based on severity. Results are often visible immediately, with final outcomes appearing after 3 to 6 months.
Regenerative Medicine and Non-Surgical Protocols
Beyond traditional surgery, the clinic uses regenerative medicine to improve skin quality and body contours. These treatments focus on tissue repair and collagen production. The clinic offers several signature protocols:
- STROMMA: A regenerative protocol that stimulates collagen and elastin for tissue repair.
- Soft Define: A submental (under chin) fat treatment using mechan-acoustic waves.
- Body Harmony: A non-surgical approach to localized fat and skin firmness.
- Fresh Face: An integrated strategy to add definition and lightness to facial contours.
Traditional non-surgical options include botulinum toxin, hyaluronic acid fillers, and PDO thread lifting. These methods address mild flaccidity without incisions. Results for treatments like collagen bio-stimulators develop gradually over several months.
International Patient Services and Support
International patients receive support through Portuguese-speaking communication. The clinic provides a care pathway that begins before the patient arrives in Brazil. This includes detailed pre-operative guidance and coordination of necessary medical exams.
Pre-surgical requirements for major procedures include a 30-day smoking cessation period and an 8-hour fast. Patients must also undergo laboratory tests, cardiology evaluations, and facial tomography if indicated. Medical follow-up continues long after the procedure to ensure safe recovery and stable results.
