Tumescent liposuction in Dr. Carlos Velasco Clinic
About the clinic
Tumescent liposuction at Dr. Carlos Velasco Clinic in Cali, Colombia, is a body-contouring procedure performed by plastic surgeon Dr. Carlos Velasco, who has over 25 years of experience.
Treatment planning may include VASER ultrasound-assisted liposuction, Vibrolipo, or J-Plasma laser liposculpture. High-definition liposculpture is also available.
Procedure and recovery
Body procedures typically take 2–3 hours, depending on the treatment area and techniques used. General anesthesia is commonly recommended when maximum precision is needed.
After surgery, patients wear a compression garment to help control swelling and shape the treated area. Post-operative care can include wound cleaning, medical checks, massages, and drainage support.
A recovery house in Cali provides professional nursing, continuous monitoring, and 24/7 medical support. The clinic also has operating rooms in a dedicated building with post-operative monitoring.
Intense exercise should be avoided for 4–6 weeks. Visible results may appear around 3 months, after swelling subsides.
Dr. Velasco is a member of ISAPS, the Colombian Society of Plastic, Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery, and the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery. Patients can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss their treatment plan.

Facial and Body Plastic Surgery
The clinic offers diverse options for facial rejuvenation and body reshaping. Surgeons use techniques designed to restore balance to facial and body contours. Each treatment plan matches the patient's specific anatomy.
Facial Procedures
Specialists perform rhytidoplasty (facelift) using a deep plane approach. This method repositions deeper facial structures rather than just pulling the skin. It delivers long-lasting results in the cheeks, jawline, and neck. The clinic also provides several types of nasal surgery:
- Open rhinoplasty for a complete view of the nasal structure
- Closed rhinoplasty techniques
- Tip rhinoplasty for targeted adjustments
- Cartilage reconstruction using rib grafts when necessary
Endoscopic and mini facelifts are available for patients who need less extensive correction.
Body Contouring and Breast Surgery
Body procedures typically take 2–3 hours. Duration depends on the extent of skin removal or whether techniques are combined. The clinic offers the Mommy Makeover, which combines a tummy tuck, breast lift, and liposculpture. Other body contouring options include:
- Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) to remove excess skin and fat
- Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) using fat transfer techniques
- Brachioplasty (arm lift) to reshape the upper arms
- High-definition liposculpture and Vaser liposuction
Breast surgeries include augmentation with implants from internationally recognized manufacturers. Patients may also choose augmentation using fat transfer instead of implants.
Surgical Infrastructure and Safety
