Liquid Liposuction in Gender Medic Unit
About the clinic
Liquid liposuction at Gender Medic Unit in Zaragoza, Spain, is a specialized body contouring procedure that removes stubborn fat using advanced infiltration techniques. The procedure typically runs around $2,300 for a single zone, led by specialists like Dr. Sonia Peña who has over 20 years of experience. This clinic holds the WhatClinic Patient Service Award and offers multiple technologies to shape the body.
Advanced Liposuction Techniques
The clinic uses several methods to achieve specific body goals. Surgeons select the best approach based on the patient's anatomy and desired outcome. These techniques include:
- Tumescent Liposuction: Involves injecting a liquid solution to firm fat and constrict blood vessels.
- Microaire (PAL): Uses power-assisted vibration to break up fat cells gently.
- VASER: Uses ultrasound energy to liquefy fat before removal.
- High-Definition (HD): Focuses on sculpting muscles for a toned appearance.
Each session can remove up to 5 liters of fat. The surgery takes between 1 and 3 hours depending on the number of areas treated. Doctors perform the procedure under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia.
Expert Surgical Team
Dr. Sonia Peña leads the plastic surgery team at Gender Medic Unit. She has over 20 years of experience and serves as the Director of the Plastic Surgery Unit at Hospital HC Miraflores. Dr. Peña is a member of SECPRE and teaches breast surgery and microsurgery. Dr. Roberto Herrero also performs these procedures. He holds a Master's degree from the University of Alcalá and specializes in reconstructive surgery. These specialists tailor each treatment to the patient's specific body type.
Recovery and Results
Patients usually return to office work within 3 to 7 days. Most people can resume light activity by the second week. Intense exercise should be avoided for at least one month. The clinic provides a recovery plan that includes manual lymphatic drainage and Indiba radiofrequency therapy. Patients must wear a compression garment for several weeks to help the skin settle. While initial changes are visible quickly, final results appear between 3 and 6 months after the procedure.

Gender Medic Unit: more details about the clinic
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.
