Tummy Tuck and Liposuction in Dr. Rodrigo Bastos
About the clinic
A combined tummy tuck and liposuction procedure at the clinic of Dr. Rodrigo Bastos in Brasília, Brazil, provides a solution for sagging skin and stubborn fat. This combination helps patients achieve a smoother abdomen and improved body proportions. Dr. Rodrigo Bastos is a member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery and has completed specialized fellowships in both the US and Turkey.
Body Contouring Methods
Dr. Rodrigo Bastos uses several techniques to reshape the midsection. A classical abdominoplasty removes excess skin and fat while tightening the underlying abdominal muscles. For fat removal, the clinic offers liposculpture, which uses a thin tube called a cannula to improve body contours. Patients seeking a more athletic appearance can choose high-definition liposuction (Lipo HD). This method targets deep fat layers to reveal the natural muscle definition underneath.
The surgery typically treats the following areas:
- Abdomen to remove loose skin and bulge
- Waist and flanks to create a narrower profile
- Localized fat deposits in other specific areas as needed
Surgeon Expertise
Dr. Rodrigo Bastos leads the procedures at the Linea Vitta Clinical Center. He holds a fellowship in Facelift surgery from NYU and completed a rhinoplasty fellowship in Istanbul. Dr. Rodrigo Bastos also founded the FAST FELLOW training program to share his surgical knowledge. His membership in the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery confirms he follows national medical standards for safety and care.
Preparation and Recovery
Patients must be in good health and should not smoke before the surgery. Women should wait at least six months after giving birth and three months after they stop breastfeeding. This timing helps the body stabilize before the procedure. The initial recovery period lasts between one and three weeks. During this time, patients must follow a specific aftercare plan to help with healing.
Post-operative care includes:
- Wearing a compression garment to reduce swelling
- Attending lymphatic drainage sessions to speed up recovery
- Resting from driving for at least 15 days
- Avoiding strenuous exercise for one month

How are we doing?
Dr. Rodrigo Bastos: more details about the clinic
Dr. Rodrigo Bastos is a plastic surgery clinic in Brasília, Brazil. It operates within the Linea Vitta Clinical Center. The medical team includes four doctors focused on facial rejuvenation and body contouring.
Accreditations and Expertise
Dr. Rodrigo Bastos is a member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP). The practice is registered with the regional medical council under CRM-DF 17938 and RQE 15819.
Dr. Bastos leads the FAST FELLOW training program for other physicians. This course provides hands-on instruction in deep plane facial anatomy and surgical techniques.
Facial Rejuvenation and Rhinoplasty
The clinic focuses on structural facial surgery rather than surface-level skin adjustments. Surgeons perform the Deep Plane Facelift to reposition underlying muscle and connective tissue. This improves jawline definition and softens deep facial lines.
The Deep Neck approach targets fat layers beneath the neck musculature. These techniques aim for natural results that avoid the tight look of traditional lifts.
For nasal surgery, the clinic uses several advanced methods:
- Hybrid Rhinoplasty with 3D modeling and computer simulations for surgical planning
- PIEZO Rhinoplasty, which uses ultrasonic energy for precise bone shaping
- Eyelid surgery (Blepharoplasty) to remove excess skin and reposition orbital fat
- Brow lifts and lip lifts to improve upper facial balance
Specialists also provide facial harmonization treatments, including bichectomy and hyaluronic acid fillers. These options help patients reach their goals without major surgery.
Breast and Body Contouring
A key differentiator is the R24R breast augmentation technique. This rapid recovery system helps patients return to routine activities quickly. The protocol includes a 14-point infection safety system and specific surgical methods. These include Dual Plane placement and the Grip Plane technique to prevent implant migration.
The body contouring department offers various surgical solutions:
- Mommy Makeover combining tummy tuck and breast procedures
- Liposculpture for the chin, cheeks, arms, and abdomen
- Gynecomastia treatment using ultrasonic liposuction to remove male breast tissue
- Fat grafting to restore volume in specific body areas
Patients seeking breast surgery must meet specific health criteria. For the R24R technique, this means a BMI under 25.
Medical Training and Technology
Dr. Rodrigo Bastos completed his plastic surgery residency at the Federal Hospital of Ipanema. He holds international fellowship training in facelifts from New York University (NYU) and completed a rhinoplasty fellowship in Istanbul.
The clinic uses 3D computer simulations to show patients predicted outcomes before surgery. Surgeons also use PIEZO technology for millimetric precision during bone-related procedures.
Care for International Patients
The clinic focuses on procedure-specific recovery planning for those traveling from abroad. For R24R breast surgery, many patients can drive and work the next day. This program includes immediate arm movement exercises to prevent stiffness.
