Belt Lipectomy in Dr. Rubem Lang plastic surgeon
About the clinic
Belt lipectomy at the clinic of Dr. Rubem Lang in Porto Alegre, Brazil, addresses loose skin and excess fat around the entire midsection. The procedure is performed by Dr. Rubem Lang Stümpfle, a specialist who has performed 20,000+ surgeries. The clinic holds TEMOS accreditation, which confirms its adherence to international quality protocols.
Expert Surgical Care
Dr. Rubem Lang Stümpfle leads the surgical team as a member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery. He developed an original surgical technique that is published in an international medical journal. The clinic uses Morpheus and Ignite RF systems to help with tissue retraction and body contouring. These tools help shape the body more effectively during the lower body lift.
The Procedure and Hospital Facilities
The surgery takes place at Blanc Hospital, which features nine operating rooms and 34 recovery beds. The facility includes two intensive care beds with 24/7 specialist support. Doctors use either general anesthesia or intravenous sedation. The surgeon places incisions in strategic spots so they remain hidden under typical swimwear or underwear. Small drains are placed under the skin for a short time to remove extra fluid.
Recovery and Aftercare
Patients typically stay in the hospital for two to four days after the surgery. A few steps are necessary to help with the healing process:
- Compression garment: Patients must wear this for at least 35 days.
- Rest period: Most people need to rest for 10 to 15 days before returning to work.
- Lymphatic drainage: The clinic recommends these sessions to help reduce swelling.
- Full recovery: Patients can usually return to exercise and full activity after two months.
Preparation for Surgery
Before the operation, patients must undergo blood tests and cardiac screenings. It is necessary to stop smoking at least one month before the scheduled date. Fasting for eight hours is required on the day of the procedure. The medical team provides a plan including pain medication and antibiotics to manage the early healing phase.
