Sculpting the body with precision: what is HD liposuction
HD liposuction (High Definition) uses an advanced molding technique that allows fat to be removed from strategic areas and, at the same time, defines the underlying muscles. This approach not only enhances the silhouette, but it accentuates natural contours, providing an athletic and toned look.
Unlike conventional techniques, HD liposuction:
- It allows you to sculpt in detail areas such as the abdomen, flanks, back and chest.
- It creates anatomical lines that highlight muscles.
- Can be combined with fat transfer to balance proportions (for example, buttocks or pectorals).
The result is a body that not only looks more defined, but also more natural and proportional.
The Before and After Process: Step-by-Step Transformation
Before the procedure
It all starts with a personalized evaluation. Dr. César López Romero analyzes the anatomy, fat distribution and objectives of each patient. At this stage, the amount of fat to be extracted and the areas where greater definition is sought are planned in detail.
The success of the procedure depends both on the surgical technique and on a artistic planning. The doctor draws the reference lines that will guide body sculpting, ensuring that the result looks balanced and natural.
During surgery
HD liposuction is performed under controlled regional anaesthesia. Through micro-incisions, a thin cannula is inserted that allows fat to be extracted with precision. The goal is not to remove all the fat, but to leave a thin layer that helps define muscles and natural contours.
Currently, Dr. César López Romero uses additional cutting-edge technology such as bipolar radiofrequency (Bodytite) or the most recently launched platform: Ignite RF and its Bodytite turbo and Quantum RF applications to achieve maximum skin retention and attachment to the deep muscle plane.
In some cases, some of that purified fat is strategically reintegrated into areas that need volume, such as buttocks or pectorals, to achieve a more harmonious silhouette.
After the procedure
The initial result can be seen from the first few weeks, although the full definition is consolidated after deinflammation, usually between the second and third month.
During the postoperative period, the use of compression bands and lymphatic drains contributes to a faster recovery and to maintaining the definition achieved.
Visible results: the real “before and after” of HD liposuction
The change after a high definition liposuction it's remarkable. Patients often experience a comprehensive transformation that goes beyond their physical appearance: it improves their posture, self-confidence and the way they perceive themselves.
When comparing the results before and after, a more toned and athletic silhouette is observed, the abdomen acquires visible muscle definition, and the arms, back and buttocks appear firmer and more proportionate.
The goal is not to exaggerate the contours, but to achieve a body harmony that brings out the best in each patient.
Essential care to maintain results
After HD liposuction, maintenance depends on healthy habits. Dr. César López Romero emphasizes the importance of a balanced routine that combines adequate nutrition, hydration and regular physical activity.
Some key tips include:
- Avoid a sedentary lifestyle during recovery.
- Incorporate toning exercises once your doctor authorizes it.
- Maintain a diet rich in protein and low in saturated fat.
- Sleep properly to promote tissue regeneration.
These practices prolong the results and help to preserve the definition achieved.
