Body Surgery
Liposculpture in Barcelona
Dr. Martín Gastón Álvarez · Board-certified 54450
Localised fat does not respond to exercise because it is not a metabolic problem — it is structural. Liposculpture with Vaser and PAL Microaire technology removes it with millimetre precision, and the comprehensive NATURAL FIT Body Contouring® protocol ensures the result lasts a lifetime.

The Procedure
What is Liposculpture?
Liposculpture is the selective removal of localised fat using small-calibre cannulas. Unlike traditional liposuction, it allows the contour to be modelled with artistic precision — not just eliminating volume, but sculpting proportions.
At NATURAL FIT Body Contouring® we apply the tumescent technique combined with Vaser ultrasonic energy, which liquefies the fat before extraction. The result: less tissue trauma, faster recovery, and skin retraction far superior to conventional liposuction.
The extracted fat cells do not regenerate. With nutritional and physical follow-up included in every process, the result is permanent.
How it works
How we perform Liposculpture
The NATURAL FIT Body Contouring® protocol begins weeks before surgery and continues months after. The procedure is just one phase of the overall process.
- 1Pre-operative preparation
Blood tests, ECG, and full medical consultation. The nutritionist optimises your metabolic state before surgery to reduce inflammation and accelerate recovery.
- 2The procedure
Local anaesthesia plus sedation. Vaser liquefies the fat with ultrasound; PAL Microaire extracts it with precision vibration. Renuvion and Argon Plasma activate skin retraction in real time. 2–3 mm incisions, virtually imperceptible.
- 3Active recovery
Discharged the same day. Daily activities resume within 48–72 hours. The personal trainer begins gentle mobility work in the first week.
- 4Consolidation of results
Body-contouring training and optimised nutrition during the first 3 months. Periodic check-ups with the surgeon until the final result is achieved.
Your Process
From the first step to the final results
01
An honest medical consultation
Dr. Gastón analyses your anatomy, your areas of fat accumulation, and your medical history. He tells you exactly what is possible — and what is not — with your body.
02
Your body prepared before surgery
The nutritionist adjusts your diet to reduce inflammation, improve healing, and shorten recovery time. The patient's pre-operative condition largely determines the final result.
03
The procedure: precision with technology
Vaser ultrasound + PAL Microaire + Renuvion. Three technologies working in the same session to extract fat, sculpt the contour, and retract the skin simultaneously.
04
Results are built, not just waited for
The extracted cells do not return. But the body continues to evolve. That is why the trainer and nutritionist work with you over the following 3 months to consolidate and refine what was achieved in the operating theatre.

The Procedure
How it is performed step by step
01
Local anaesthesia or sedation
Tumescent anaesthesia is used to ensure maximum comfort and minimum bleeding during the procedure.
02
Minimal incisions
Strategic 2–3 mm micro-incisions in hidden areas to insert the extraction cannulas.
03
Modelling and sculpting
Selective and precise fat extraction with high-tech cannulas. The surgeon sculpts the contour with an artistic eye for anatomy.
Safe procedure
04
Drainage and closure
Incisions are closed with absorbable stitches. A compression garment is placed to optimise skin retraction.
05
Post-operative monitoring
24-hour medical follow-up. Detailed medication and care schedule for an optimal recovery.
06
Quick return to daily life
Within 48–72 hours you can resume most daily activities. After 2 weeks you will already notice the first results.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to your questions
Your procedure includes the surgical intervention, a personalised nutritional plan pre- and post-op, sessions with a personal trainer at a specialist gym, all medical check-ups, and continuous follow-up.
The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia or sedation. Post-operative discomfort is mild and easily managed with the prescribed medication. Most patients describe minimal discomfort.
Initial results are visible after a few weeks. The final result is fully appreciated between 3 and 6 months after the procedure, once the skin has completely retracted.
With our comprehensive method — including a nutritionist and personal trainer — we help you transform your habits so the results last permanently. The extracted fat cells do not regenerate.
Most patients resume daily activities within 48–72 hours. Medical follow-up ensures an optimal and safe recovery.
Liposculpture performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon in a hospital operating theatre carries a very high safety profile, according to the Spanish Society of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery (SECPRE). Serious complications are rare when pre-operative protocols and safe extraction volumes are respected.
Traditional liposuction removes fat volume more globally. Liposculpture is selective and artistic: it extracts fat from specific areas and, optionally, re-injects it elsewhere to sculpt the contour. At NATURAL FIT® we also add Vaser ultrasound and Renuvion for skin retraction — something not done in conventional liposuction.
Incisions are 2–3 mm and placed in naturally concealed areas (skin folds, navel, groin). With the recommended post-operative care, scars are virtually imperceptible in the majority of patients after 6–12 months. Skin prone to keloids is assessed case by case.
The extracted fat cells do not regenerate in the treated area. If you gain significant weight, the remaining fat cells and those in other areas can enlarge, altering the achieved contour. That is why the comprehensive plan with nutritionist and trainer is part of the process — to maintain the result permanently.
Surgery lasts 2–4 hours depending on the areas treated. It is a major outpatient procedure: you go home the same day after a few hours of observation. Hospital admission is not required except in specific cases assessed by the surgeon.
It is not suitable for patients with significant obesity (BMI above 30, where weight loss is recommended first), serious coagulation disorders, uncontrolled cardiovascular disease, pregnancy or breastfeeding, or patients with unrealistic expectations. A medical assessment determines candidacy.
Yes. It is commonly combined with abdominoplasty, buttock augmentation with own fat (BBL), breast augmentation, or overall body surgery. The combination is assessed during the consultation based on your health, goals, and safe surgical volumes for a single session.

Honest information
Risks and safety of liposculpture
Every surgical procedure, however minimally invasive, carries risks. We explain them transparently so you can make a fully informed decision. At NATURAL FIT Body Contouring® we apply the strictest protocols to minimise them.
Haematomas and seromas
Accumulation of blood or fluid in the treated area. The compression garment and lymphatic drainage minimise their occurrence; when they do arise, they are resolved with medical management.
Contour irregularities
Minor asymmetries or skin waviness may appear in some cases. The Vaser and PAL Microaire technique greatly reduces this risk, but does not eliminate it entirely.
Sensitivity changes
It is common to experience numbness, tingling, or hypersensitivity in the treated area for weeks or months. Normal sensation returns progressively.
Infection
Risk is low thanks to strict aseptic protocol and antibiotic prophylaxis. Warning signs (fever, redness, increasing pain) are monitored at scheduled check-ups.
Venous thrombosis
An infrequent but serious risk. We prevent it with compression stockings, heparin prophylaxis when indicated, and early mobilisation from the first 24 hours.
Scarring
The 2–3 mm incisions heal very well in the majority of skin types. Patients prone to keloids or hypertrophic scarring are assessed beforehand and the post-operative plan is adapted accordingly.
According to the Spanish Society of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery (SECPRE), liposculpture is one of the most performed aesthetic procedures in Spain and presents a very high safety profile when performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon in a hospital setting, respecting safe extraction volumes.
