Love handles liposuction in Paulo Solano plastic surgery
About the clinic
Love handles liposuction at Paulo Solano plastic surgery in Florianópolis, Brazil, focuses on removing persistent fat from the flanks. The procedure is performed by Dr. Paulo Solano, a Titular Member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery. This TEMOS-accredited facility specializes in body contouring and offers tailored surgical plans based on your specific anatomy.
Liposuction Techniques and Options
The clinic provides two main types of fat removal to shape the midsection. Dr. Paulo Solano selects the method after a physical exam of the skin and fat layers.
- Conventional liposuction: This method focuses on volume reduction. The surgeon uses thin cannulas through small incisions to remove localized fat.
- High-Definition Liposuction (Lipo HD): This selective technique enhances muscle contours. It is suitable for patients with good skin quality who want visible muscle definition.
Both methods use small incisions placed in natural skin creases or areas covered by underwear. Ultrasound assistance is often added to help break down fat cells during the surgery.
Safety and Surgical Protocol
Surgery takes place in a hospital setting under general anesthesia. Before the procedure, patients undergo a thorough evaluation including lab tests. These tests check coagulation, kidney function, and liver health to lower surgical risks. Dr. Paulo Solano completed his residency at the Federal University of Health Sciences of Porto Alegre, bringing specialized training to every case.
Recovery and Aftercare
After the surgery, the medical team provides a specific recovery plan. Patients wear a compression garment to support the new body shape and reduce swelling. In some cases, small drains help remove excess fluid. The clinic organizes early rehabilitation and follow-up consultations to monitor healing. Return to work depends on the extent of the fat removal and the patient's daily activities.
If you want to address fat that does not respond to diet or exercise, you can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss your options.

Paulo Solano plastic surgery: more details about the clinic
Paulo Solano Plastic Surgery is a private clinic in Florianópolis, Brazil. It operates from a single facility in the city center. The practice focuses on surgical body contouring and aesthetic breast procedures.
Accreditations and Professional Standing
Dr. Paulo Solano leads the clinic. He holds Titular Member status in the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP) – the society's highest membership rank. The practice also has TEMOS accreditation for international quality standards.
Breast Surgery and Revision Expertise
Dr. Solano specializes in complex breast procedures addressing both volume and position. The clinic uses an exam-driven planning model. Every surgical indication comes from physical assessment, not a standard formula. This approach applies to several procedures:
- Short-scar mastopexy to lift breasts while minimizing scarring
- Mastopexy with silicone implants for patients needing elevation and added projection
- Breast reduction and implant exchange or removal
- Treatment for capsular contracture – firmness or deformation around an implant
For revision cases, the clinic may use a dermal matrix. This internal mesh reinforces breast tissue structure. Implant selection depends on tissue thickness, base width, and the distance between breasts. This ensures proportions fit each patient's frame.
Body Contouring and High-Definition Techniques
The practice offers specialized liposuction and abdominal surgery. These procedures target localized fat and muscle definition rather than weight loss. Key options include:
- Lipo HD (High-Definition Liposuction) to highlight natural muscle transitions
- Lipoabdominoplasty – liposuction combined with a tummy tuck in one operation
- Diastasis correction to repair separated abdominal muscles
- 360-degree liposuction and Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)
When significant skin laxity is present, Dr. Solano advises whether fat removal alone will work. This ensures the method matches the patient's skin quality and long-term goals.
Safety Protocols and Technology
Safety preparation starts with individualized lab testing. This checks coagulation, kidney and liver function, and metabolic health to plan anesthesia. Every surgery takes place in a hospital setting under general anesthesia with continuous monitoring.
Post-operative care includes early rehabilitation to support recovery. The clinic also guides the person accompanying the patient during the first days at home. For scar management, silicone tape may be used over 12 to 18 months.
Services for International Patients
The clinic treats international patients traveling to Florianópolis for aesthetic surgery. Scheduling is managed through WhatsApp.
