Liposuction in Dr. João Carlos Correa Eschiletti
About the clinic
Liposuction at the clinic of Dr. João Carlos Correa Eschiletti in Porto Alegre, Brazil, helps patients remove localized fat from areas like the waist, thighs, and neck. This procedure is performed by a surgeon with over 45 years of experience using micro-incision techniques. The clinic holds international safety accreditations from TEMOS and ISAPS, as well as the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP).
The Liposuction Procedure
The surgery typically takes 1 to 2 hours to complete. Dr. Eschiletti uses micro-incisions that are only about 4mm in size. Through these small openings, the surgeon infuses a solution of saline, adrenaline, and local anesthetic. This mixture helps reduce bleeding and prepares the fat for removal. The surgeon then uses a specialized cannula to aspirate the fat cells from the body. This method helps minimize scarring and supports a faster healing process.
Patients can choose from several anesthesia options depending on the scope of the treatment. These include local anesthesia, sedation, epidural, or general anesthesia. Most patients undergo the surgery as an outpatient procedure. This means they can go home the same day without an overnight hospital stay.

- Hospital discharge: Usually occurs on the same day as the surgery.
- Suture removal: Stitches are typically removed within 5 to 10 days.
- Compression garments: Patients must wear special elastic clothing for several weeks to reduce swelling.

Key Facts and Professional Standing
The clinic is led by Dr. João Carlos Correa Eschiletti. He is a full member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP) and holds a Master's degree from the University of Porto. Dr. Eschiletti graduated from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS) in 1980. He brings over 40 years of medical experience to his practice.

- Specialty registration in Medical Nutrition through ABRAN
- Recognition by Veja magazine as a leading plastic surgeon in Brazil
Three physicians coordinate surgical and nutritional treatments under one roof.
Plastic Surgery and Body Contouring
The surgical department performs body and breast procedures. Surgeons use SILIMED implants for breast augmentation and mastopexy. For patients who have lost significant weight, the clinic offers post-bariatric plastic surgery. This removes excess skin while nutritional monitoring helps maintain stable weight.
Abdominal contouring is a major focus, with several techniques available:
- Classic abdominoplasty for complete tissue dissection
- Mini-abdominoplasty using a shorter incision for localized correction
- Anchor-type abdominoplasty for extensive skin removal after obesity
- Reverse tummy tuck for upper abdominal sagging
Liposculpture combines fat removal with fat grafting. Surgeons transfer harvested fat to the face, buttocks, or hands to restore lost volume. This treats localized fat deposits while filling natural contours – no synthetic fillers needed.
Facial Rejuvenation and Otorhinolaryngology
Facial surgeries address both aesthetic goals and breathing issues. Facelift procedures take 2–6 hours and typically require a 12–24 hour hospital stay. Surgeons can combine these with eyelid surgery or endoscopic forehead lifting to minimize visible scarring.
The clinic treats several nose and ear conditions:
- Rhinoplasty to correct septal deviations and improve breathing
- Nose reshaping for drooping tips or wide nostrils
- Otoplasty to correct prominent ears or injury-related deformities
- Intimate surgery for physical comfort and appearance
Ear correction involves an incision behind the ear and internal sutures to reshape cartilage. Since the clinic integrates medical nutrition, specialists can optimize a patient's health before surgery. This supports better healing.
Patient Recovery and Logistics
Every surgical case comes with a detailed recovery plan. Breast surgery patients follow specific positioning protocols to protect stitches. Tummy tuck recovery includes compression garments for 2–3 weeks. Patients should avoid strenuous activity for up to 6 weeks. Final results are typically assessed between months three and four.
The clinic offers these amenities:
- On-site parking within the building complex
- Pre-surgical consultations to align expectations
- Direct communication with the lead physician
- Guidance on post-operative garments and activity limits
These protocols help patients understand each phase – from first consultation through final recovery.
