Liposuction in Dr. Felipe Mazzillo Plastic Surgery Clinic
About the clinic
Liposuction at the Dr. Felipe Mazzillo Plastic Surgery Clinic in Rio de Janeiro helps patients reshape their body contours using modern surgical techniques. The clinic is a specialized center for body sculpting in Brazil, holding accreditations from both the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. This ensures that every procedure follows strict international safety standards for patient care.
Advanced Liposuction Techniques
The clinic offers high definition liposuction, also known as Lipo HD, to create a more sculpted appearance. This method focuses on highlighting the natural muscle definition in the abdomen, back, and flanks. Patients can also choose classical liposuction to remove larger deposits of stubborn fat. The surgical team tailors the approach based on the specific goals and body type of each individual.
Body Contouring and Fat Transfer
Liposuction can be combined with other procedures to improve the overall body shape. Fat removed from the midsection or back can be purified and transferred to the buttocks. This process is commonly known as a Brazilian Butt Lift. It allows the surgeon to reduce volume in unwanted areas while adding natural volume where the patient desires it most.
Safety and Recovery Protocols
Patient safety is the main priority at this facility. Every surgical plan begins with a full cardiological evaluation and necessary medical exams. The clinic follows a "Safety First" protocol that includes specific measures to prevent deep vein thrombosis. These strict criteria help reduce risks during and after the operation.
Recovery is managed through a structured follow-up schedule. Patients visit the clinic weekly during the first month after surgery. These check-ups continue on a monthly basis until all swelling resolves. This consistent monitoring helps the medical team track healing and manage the final results effectively.

Dr. Felipe Mazzillo Plastic Surgery Clinic: more details about the clinic
Medical Expertise and Accreditations
Dr. Felipe Mazzillo is a board-certified plastic surgeon. He holds credentials from the SBCP (Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery) and the ASPS (American Society of Plastic Surgeons). He also serves as a preceptor and professor for plastic surgery residents. His training includes a residency at the Pitanguy Institute and an internship at the Miller School of Medicine in the United States.
The clinic follows a "Safety First" protocol for every procedure. Specialists prescribe pre-operative exams based on individual needs, often including a full cardiological evaluation. This screening helps optimize surgical outcomes and patient safety.
Body Contouring and Reconstructive Surgery
The surgical team performs procedures to reshape the abdomen, limbs, and gluteal regions. Surgeons often combine techniques for more balanced results. Specialized body procedures include:
- Abdominoplasty to remove excess skin and tighten abdominal muscles
- Liposuction of the flanks, back, and abdomen to shape the waist
- Brazilian Butt Lift using fat grafting from the flanks to the buttocks
- Brachioplasty (arm lift) to remove tissue from the inner arm and armpit
- Thigh lifts and gluteal or calf implants
Brachioplasty typically requires a 24-hour hospital stay. Patients usually need two weeks off work for initial recovery.
Facial Surgery and Breast Procedures
The clinic offers surgeries for the face and breasts. Facial procedures focus on rejuvenation and structural enhancement. Breast surgeries address both aesthetic goals and reconstructive needs.
Available surgical options include:
- Blepharoplasty, facelift, and endoscopic brow lift
- Rhinoplasty, otoplasty, and chin implants
- Breast augmentation with implants and mastopexy
- Breast reduction and reconstructive surgery after tumor removal
Surgeons also treat skin tumors as part of their reconstructive services.
Non-Surgical Rejuvenation and Recovery
For patients who prefer alternatives to surgery, the clinic offers a non-surgical slimming program. This approach uses Sonic Fisio Maxx technology for localized fat reduction. The treatment requires no needles or anesthesia and leaves no marks. Facial rejuvenation is also available through botulinum toxin and dermal fillers.
To improve healing, the clinic uses photobiomodulation. This infrared laser and LED therapy helps control scar formation and supports tissue regeneration. Dr. Mazzillo stays available by phone throughout recovery to answer patient questions.
Services for International Patients
The clinic provides structured care planning for patients traveling from abroad. This includes coordinating the initial evaluation and setting a timeline for surgical monitoring. Post-operative follow-up is scheduled weekly during the first month. Afterward, patients attend monthly visits until swelling resolves and the final result is visible.
