Liposuction in clinic Nishimoto
About the clinic
Liposuction at Clinic Nishimoto in Belo Horizonte and Betim, Brazil, helps patients remove localized fat deposits and refine their body contours. The clinic follows international safety standards, holding accreditation from both the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP) and TEMOS. This procedure is suitable for individuals close to their ideal weight who want to address areas resistant to diet and exercise.
Liposuction Methods and Techniques
The surgical team uses several methods to achieve specific body goals. These include mechanical techniques like vibrolipoaspiration, as well as ultrasonic and laser-assisted methods. Depending on the patient's needs, surgeons may perform traditional liposuction or Lipo HD for high-definition results. The clinic also offers liposculpture, where removed fat is purified and grafted into other areas of the body to add volume.
Surgeons perform the procedure through small incisions measuring only 4 to 5 mm. Before the surgery starts, doctors use infiltration techniques such as the tumescent or super wet method. These involve injecting a solution to minimize bleeding and ease fat removal. Anesthesia options typically include an epidural with sedation, though local or general anesthesia is used in some cases.
Safety and Expert Care
Dr. Fabrício Nishimoto leads the clinic after completing specialized plastic surgery training at Hospital das Clínicas da UFMG. He works alongside Dr. Gabriel Gontijo, a surgeon recognized by the SBCP for achieving the highest training scores in the state for three consecutive years. Dr. Gontijo is the only resident in the history of Minas Gerais to receive this honor three times.
Safety protocols begin before the surgery with a thorough physical exam and ultrasound to check for hernias. The team also conducts lab tests for thrombophilia to reduce the risk of blood clots. During and after the operation, patients use intermittent pneumatic compression and elastic stockings to maintain healthy blood flow.
Recovery and Post-Operative Protocol
Most patients stay in the clinic for less than 24 hours, often returning home the same day. Recovery involves a specific care plan to help the body heal and shape correctly:
- Compression garments: Patients must wear abdominal shapers and foam inserts.
- Lymphatic drainage: A series of 10 to 20 sessions begins on the third day after surgery.
- Activity: Early walking and high fluid intake are necessary to prevent complications.
- Rest: Patients should avoid prolonged sitting or heavy physical activity during the initial healing phase.

clinic Nishimoto: more details about the clinic
Clinic Nishimoto is a private multi-specialty facility established in 2023. It operates two branches in the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais. One unit is in Belo Horizonte, the other in Betim. The clinic focuses on plastic surgery and advanced aesthetic medicine.
Accreditations and Professional Recognitions
The clinic holds TEMOS accreditation, an international certification for medical tourism and patient safety. It is also recognized by the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP). Dr. Gabriel Gontijo, a surgeon at the clinic, achieved the highest state scores in plastic surgery training from 2017 to 2019.
Plastic Surgery and Body Contouring
Specialists perform abdominal surgeries to restore contour and address skin laxity. The clinic offers several abdominoplasty techniques:
- Classic and mini abdominoplasty
- Lipoabdominoplasty
- Extended or circumferential abdominoplasty
- Anchor abdominoplasty
Tummy tuck procedures typically last 3 to 5 hours. Hospital stays range from 12 to 48 hours, depending on the technique. Surgeons also perform liposuction and Lipo HD using mechanical, ultrasound, or laser methods.
Breast procedures include augmentation, reduction, and mastopexy. The breast lift with implants repositions the areola and nipple while adding volume. Each surgery is planned around individual anatomy, including implant size and placement.
For male patients, the clinic treats gynecomastia (enlarged male breasts). Treatment involves gland removal, liposuction, or both. This addresses volume caused by hormonal changes or excess fatty tissue.
Facial Rejuvenation and Intimate Surgery
Facial procedures focus on softening wrinkles and reshaping contours. Specialists perform Ritidoplástia (facelift) to reduce excess skin on the face and neck. Other options include blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), rhinoplasty, and bichectomy (cheek surgery).
The clinic is a regional center for labiaplasty and intimate aesthetics. This procedure reduces enlarged labia minora while preserving the protective function of the vaginal entrance. Surgery takes about one hour under local anesthesia with light sedation. Patients typically go home the same day.
Specialized Medical Team
The surgical team includes Dr. Fabrício Nishimoto and Dr. Gabriel Gontijo. Dr. Nishimoto completed his plastic surgery training at Hospital das Clínicas da UFMG. Dr. Gontijo trained at the same institution after a general surgery residency at Hospital Odilon Behrens.
Integrated Patient Services
A multidisciplinary team supports recovery. Patients can see endocrinology, physiotherapy, and nutrition specialists. A clinic doctor performs surgical risk assessments and reviews pre-operative tests before any procedure.
Post-operative care includes guidance on positioning, wound management, and compression garment use. Staff speak Portuguese, English, and Spanish. International patients can access support services to coordinate their care across both locations.
