What does the free initial consultation involve?
It is a medical consultation, which is much more than just an informative visit. Why? Because we will carry out a personalised assessment of your physical condition: how is your body? How does it look physically? Which areas are bothering you?
During this consultation, a doctor from the surgical team will discuss your goals, expectations and any concerns or questions you may have. In order to offer you a response tailored to your physical condition, we will carry out:
1- A nutritional assessment of your body composition
2- An objective assessment using 360º imaging
From there, we will inform you about which treatments may benefit you, what the advantages are, and how much they cost.
Measuring your body composition
During your first visit, we will use a device that measures your body composition. In addition to your weight and height, we will obtain the following information:
- Percentage of water in your body
- Percentage of fat and visceral fat
- Percentage of muscle mass
This information is supplemented by a very specific questionnaire about your health and your behaviour in relation to nutrition, healthy habits and physical exercise.
3D Bioimpedance
We have also added a second state-of-the-art device.
Using this 3D scan, we will be able to personalise your progress over time and visualise your body's transformation in 3D.

Nutrition and physical activity plan
Body surgery needs to be approached holistically.
When thinking about post-operative body care, we know for a fact that there are no miracles, that healthy eating and exercise are a fundamental part of the recovery process.
So, if someone asks, ‘Why should I choose Clínica Planas?’, the answer is simple: what sets us apart is that we combine the 5 pillars of well-being.
The post-operative care for your body surgery at Clínica Planas always includes:
- Visit with a nutritionist
- Personalised diet
- Physiotherapy sessions
- Hyperbaric chamber sessions
- Visit with a physical trainer at Medical Gym
Post-operative body surgery
Our comprehensive approach combines more than 50 years of experience from multiple perspectives:
- Patient recovery in the operating room
- The right choice of post-operative garments
- Personalised hospitalisation
- Specialised physiotherapist from 24 hours after surgery
- Minimally invasive equipment
This 360º approach emphasises the first few minutes after body surgery, including the surgeon's point of view, the use of post-operative garments and the diagnosis of a team of highly specialised physiotherapists, offering a personalised vision of how to proceed with each patient's post-operative care.
Patient recovery in the operating room
Why are the first few minutes after surgery so important?
The post-operative period is key to the success of body surgery.
Once the body surgery is complete, we immediately identify the areas that need to be improved and the post-operative instances that require special attention, thus promoting faster recovery and an optimal final result.
To better understand this idea, we can think of the success of body surgery as breaking down as follows:
- 50% of the outcome of body surgery is determined by what happens in the operating room.
- 50% of the outcome of body surgery depends on the active participation of the patient; and Clínica Planas provides you with a multidisciplinary team to accompany you throughout the process.
The right choice of post-operative garments
For us, choosing the right post-operative garment is very important, which is why at Clínica Planas we take care of it for you. In fact, you will wake up from the anaesthesia with the compression garment already in place, selected according to the type of surgery you have undergone.
We have a wide range of garments that we will select according to your needs:
- Appropriate girdle for the patient
- Compression stockings
- Use of bandages
- Use of vests
- Use of foam
Personalised hospitalisation
A 360º post-operative care is achieved with a comprehensive and balanced view of the patient's recovery.
We have a nursing team with specific skills and competencies for post-operative care following body contouring surgery.
We will also pamper you with an anti-inflammatory diet prepared in our own kitchen.
This has a positive impact on your overall condition during the first few hours after surgery and also helps us gather key information about your progress, so that the surgeon and the rest of the team can decide on improvements and personalise a specific action plan.
Specialised physiotherapist within 24 hours
Within the first 24 hours after surgery, a specialised physiotherapy team will assess you and carry out an initial personalised session tailored to your type of surgery. From there, they will decide on the protocol to follow.
Among the options you may need, we highlight:
- Diathermy
- Cryotherapy
- Radiofrequency (Idiba)
- Ultrasound
- Pressotherapy
- LPG
- Magnetic therapy
- Carboxytherapy
- Hyperbaric chamber
Your physiotherapist will know when you are ready to resume sporting activities and will work closely with the physical rehabilitation professionals at our clinic.
Our Medical Gym Team will propose a progressive training programme adapted to your physical condition to achieve a better recovery.
From there, once you have completed the recovery phase, you will need guidance to maintain healthy habits. Expert nutritionists will guide you in maintaining the healthy habits that will ensure that you maintain your results over the years.
Minimally invasive devices
After surgery, non-invasive technologies can be considered to:
- Improve skin quality
- Complete cellulite treatments
- Eliminate stretch marks
- Hide scars
These minimally invasive treatments can make all the difference and ensure that body surgery results look completely natural.

F.A.Q.
-
What is body fat?
It is the percentage of fat distributed in each area of our body. Generally, it is divided into two zones: a superficial layer of fat that gives volume to the skin and is where most of the skin appendages are located, such as sweat glands, sebaceous glands, hair follicles, etc.
-
What types of abdominal fat exist?
There are three types of fat in the abdominal area. 1- The first, and deepest, is intra-abdominal fat, which acts as support and surrounds and protects internal organs such as the intestine or stomach. This fat can only be reduced with diet and exercise.
2- The second is deep fat, which is in contact with the muscles of the abdominal wall; it is the fat that most often increases in cases of overweight and the one that is most reduced in liposuction procedures.
3- The third is the most superficial layer, directly in contact with the skin. It varies in abundance depending on the area and is only treated in cases of abdominal definition. -
Can I gain weight after liposuction?
Yes, it is possible to gain weight after liposuction. There is no technique available to permanently remove fat; therefore, it is necessary to maintain a healthy lifestyle in order to preserve the result.
-
How many times can liposuction be performed?
At present, there is no recommendation regarding a maximum number of procedures. However, in secondary cases, the amount of bleeding and surgical time increase due to the formation of fibrosis and the presence of possible previous irregularities.
-
Is liposuction used for weight loss?
No. Although some kilograms are lost when fat volume is reduced, liposuction and body contouring techniques aim to treat localized fat deposits that are difficult to eliminate through exercise or skin laxity that does not improve. Liposuction is not a method for weight loss.
-
HD Lipo Sculpture – what is the process?
The HD Lipo Sculpture procedure begins with an evaluation consultation at Clínica Planas. During this consultation, your goals, expectations, and any concerns or questions will be discussed. The surgeon will evaluate your body and provide personalized recommendations to achieve the best result. Once the procedure has been planned, the surgery date will be scheduled.
-
HD Lipo Sculpture – what does the procedure consist of?
On the day of surgery, general anesthesia will be administered to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. The plastic surgeon will make small incisions strategically placed in areas not visible to the naked eye in order to access the treatment areas. Through these small incisions, the cannulas will be introduced to emulsify, aspirate the excess fat, and finally the cannula that allows for skin retraction.
Once this sequence of body transformation has been completed, the small incisions will be closed with special sutures, which are absorbable, meaning they do not protrude from the small incision and generally do not need to be removed, as the body reabsorbs them after a few weeks. -
What are the advantages of the hyperbaric chamber during the postoperative period of body surgery?
The hyperbaric chamber is a device designed to increase oxygen supply to the body. For this reason, at Clínica Planas we recommend its use to our patients. The main benefits are: 1- Faster recovery after surgery
2- Reduced inflammation
3- Improved healing process
