About the clinic

Liposculpture at Clínica San Clemente in Zaragoza, Spain, is a body contouring procedure that typically runs around $2,300. The clinic is part of the Hernán Cortés hospital group and holds the WhatClinic Patient Service Award, serving over 5,000 patients every year. A main advantage of this facility is the access to multiple advanced methods, including VASER and high-definition techniques, led by surgeons with over 20 years of experience.

Liposculpture Methods and Technology

The clinic provides a wide range of techniques to remove stubborn fat and shape the body. Surgeons choose the best method based on the patient's needs and specific body areas. Available options include:

  • VASER liposuction which uses ultrasound to break down fat cells.
  • High-definition (HD/3D) liposuction for creating athletic muscle definition.
  • Microair (PAL) liposuction which uses vibration to make fat removal easier.
  • Laser liposuction to help tighten the skin while removing fat.
  • Tumescent and traditional liposuction for standard volume reduction.

These methods treat many areas, including the abdomen, flanks, thighs, back, and chin. The surgery lasts between 1 and 3 hours. Doctors follow strict safety limits, removing no more than 5 liters of fat per session.

Expert Surgical Team

Dr. Sonia Peña leads the Aesthetic Surgery Unit with over 20 years of experience in body contouring. She is a member of SECPRE and founded the Fundación Sigo Adelante. Dr. Roberto Herrero also specializes in body contouring and transgender surgery. Dr. Herrero uses personalized techniques for every liposculpture patient to achieve natural-looking results.

Recovery and Results

Most patients undergo the procedure as outpatients and return home the same day. Office workers can usually get back to their jobs within 3 to 7 days. While light activity starts in the second week, intense exercise should wait until one month after surgery. The clinic provides a recovery protocol to speed up healing, which includes:

  • Manual lymphatic drainage sessions.
  • Indiba radiofrequency treatments.
  • Polarized light therapy to improve skin recovery.
  • Compression garments to support the new body shape.

Initial results appear after one month, with the final body shape visible within 3 to 6 months. The removed fat cells do not return, making the results permanent if the patient maintains a stable weight. You can request a consultation through Bookimed to receive a personalized evaluation and budget.

Gender Medic Unit: more details about the clinic

Spain, Zaragoza

Established in 2013, Clinic San Clemente is a private medical center in Zaragoza, Spain. The facility specializes in plastic surgery and aesthetic medicine, treating over 5,000 patients each year. It is affiliated with the Hernán Cortés hospital group and combines surgical precision with structured recovery protocols.

Accreditations and Humanitarian Achievements

The clinic received the WhatClinic Patient Service Award for its commitment to patient care. Beyond aesthetics, the facility supports reconstructive surgery through the Fundación Sigo Adelante. This foundation works in Pakistan, helping women affected by acid attacks and burns through complex reconstructive procedures and social reintegration programs.

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

Dr. Sonia Peña leads the surgical unit with over 20 years of experience. The clinic is a high-volume center for breast surgery, having completed more than 5,000 mammary interventions. Surgeons perform both cosmetic enhancements and reconstructive procedures, including breast reconstruction after mastectomy.

Facial surgery options include otoplasty, blepharoplasty, and rhinoplasty. For nasal corrections, the clinic offers several methods:

  • Open rhinoplasty for direct vision and structural control
  • Closed rhinoplasty to avoid external scarring
  • Non-surgical nasal reshaping (Rinomodelación) for three out of four aesthetic cases

Body contouring is another primary focus, led by specialists like Dr. Roberto Herrero. The team performs traditional liposuction and tumescent techniques. These use saline injections to aid fat removal. Most liposuction procedures are outpatient, though complex cases may require an overnight stay.

Aesthetic Medicine and Skin Regeneration

The aesthetic medicine department offers non-surgical treatments to improve skin texture and firmness. Specialists use the Nanopore Turbo-Roller for microneedling. This delivers vitamins and hyaluronic acid through controlled micropunctures. A typical program requires 3 to 4 sessions spaced three weeks apart.

Regenerative therapies include exosome therapy for anti-aging and skin repair. This protocol involves three sessions at 21-day intervals to stimulate natural collagen production. The clinic also treats hair loss with transplants and exosome-based stimulation to improve density.

Other non-surgical treatments include:

  • Chemical peels and facial bio-stimulation
  • Radiofrequency and IPL (Intense Pulsed Light)
  • Botox for both wrinkles and bruxism
  • LPG Endermologie for lymphatic drainage and volume reduction

For weight management, the clinic uses the Tanita body composition analyzer. This creates personalized diet programs based on body measurements.

Advanced Medical Technologies

The clinic uses specialized equipment to improve surgical outcomes and speed healing. Operating rooms have technology for ultrasonic rhinoplasty and advanced anesthesia monitoring. For post-operative care, the facility uses Indiba radiofrequency and Luz Polarizada (Polarized Light). These reduce inflammation and accelerate tissue recovery.

Support and Recovery Services

Every surgical patient receives a structured recovery plan. This combines physiotherapy with manual lymphatic drainage (DLM). The surgeon remains responsible for follow-up care for one year after the procedure. Patients also have direct phone access to their surgeon during the initial post-operative phase.

Breast surgery patients receive long-term monitoring through regular medical evaluations. These checks help identify early signs of implant wear or capsular contracture. Specialists provide close follow-up to confirm inflammation decreases properly and the final result meets expectations.

It’s only been 20 days since I had surgery for a breast reduction with doctor Roberto Herrero Herrero, and I feel it has been one of the best decisions of my life. From the very first consultation, they made me feel confident and close by. Maribel is lovely, María José is always attentive on the phone, and Desire made my first massage a really pleasant experience. As for doctor Roberto Herrero, I can only thank him for his professionalism, his humane treatment, and the excellent work he has done. He has changed my life. I’ve taken a huge weight off my shoulders, both physically and emotionally, and every day I’m even more happy with the result. Without a doubt, I would recommend him 100%. Thank you for making the whole process so easy ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

For a long time now I’ve been going to Clínica San Clemente for radiofrequency treatment, and I absolutely love the sessions they do for you at the clinic—especially the massage they give you afterward. They have wonderful hands—both of them, Desiré and Marta.

A very good experience of professional care... from the very first moment you walk in with Maria Jose and Maribel. You feel welcomed.

Hello, they are very good professionals, not to mention the personal and close treatment; and one important thing for me about Dr Peña is that if she believes a treatment won’t work for you or sees that you don’t need it, she tells you no—they don’t try to sell you everything. I’ll come back for sure 😊😊

It’s been about a year since I contacted Clínica San Clemente, and I only wish I had done it earlier. From the very first moment, Maribel explains everything and stays by your side throughout the whole process. Dr. Peña is a great professional—she makes you feel comfortable and at ease. Desirée has incredible hands. Every session with her is wonderful. María José always greets you with a big smile and makes you feel at home.
