Advanced Liposculpture Methods
Dr. Pedro Westphalen uses the Lipo HD Total Definer method to create visible muscle contours. This technique does not just remove fat but shapes the body for an athletic look. The clinic also uses the SAFER technique. This method helps the surgeon remove fat uniformly across the treatment area. It also allows for fat grafting, where the doctor reuses harvested fat to enhance other areas like the gluteals during the same session.
To improve patient comfort, the clinic employs Power Assisted Liposuction (PAL) using Vibrolipo Micro Aire. This system uses vibrating cannulas to break up fat cells more gently. Using these vibrating tools helps reduce tissue trauma and bruising. Patients often experience a faster recovery time compared to traditional liposuction methods.

Advanced Body Contouring and Liposuction
The clinic specializes in high-definition body sculpting using the Lipo HD Total Definer technique. This method creates defined muscle contours while removing excess fat. Surgeons use specialized tools to improve results and patient safety:
- Técnica SAFER – an advanced liposuction method for uniform results. Surgeons can reuse harvested fat for grafting in the same session.
- Power Assisted Liposuction (PAL) – a system with vibrating cannulas that break down fat cells gently.
- Vibrolipo (Micro Aire) – a technology that reduces tissue trauma during fat removal. This often means less bruising and faster recovery.
These methods are often combined with fat grafting to enhance the gluteal region or other areas.
Minimally Invasive and Non-Surgical Options
Dr. Westphalen was the first to introduce Ignite Quantum RF in Rio Grande do Sul. This radiofrequency platform remodels deep fat layers and tightens skin without large incisions. The clinic also uses Morpheus8 by InMode.
Morpheus8 combines microneedling with fractionated radiofrequency energy. This stimulates collagen production deep within the skin. Patients see improvements in wrinkles, skin laxity, and surface irregularities on face and body.

- Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) and post-bariatric skin removal
