Liposuction has been one of the most acclaimed procedures due to its results and the improvement of the obvious appearance.

Due to the technological advances, the lipolaser has been proclaimed as one of the most requested techniques of the last times Why? It is a high precision procedure that, unlike liposuction that is based on destroying fat for your aspiration, but liquefies the fat by direct contact with the laser allowing the aspiration much easier.

However, this technique is indicated for small amounts of adipose tissue and reach the sites where the conventional liposuction instrument would not reach.

In this way, the results obtained are much more firm, body definition, reduction of cellulite, attenuation of flaccidity and with a minor trauma since it is minimally invasive.

As any surgical procedure requires postoperative care by the patient that influence the final results of the operation.

Over time the skin wears off, loses elasticity, wrinkles and it costs more to recover from the daily damages it receives to the following factors, such as: makeup, the sun, and the impurities of the environment and therefore, your face may be withered and look older than it really is.

As a contingency measure of these skin conditions of your face, I recommend non-invasive procedures. Within this category there is the application of Botox, facial rejuvenation with plasma, facial fillings with hyaluronic acid and peeling.

All the above functions serve as correctors for facial imperfections but each has a specification:

Botox is a protein that relaxes the muscles from where it is applied, preventing them from contracting and generating wrinkles.

On the other hand, facial rejuvenation with plasma consists of "harvesting" and "implanting" their own cells responsible for cellular regeneration in the right place and in an amount impossible to achieve by the body alone.

Hyaluronic acid is used to correct depressions, wrinkles, asymmetries, and lack of tissue on the face and / or body.

The peeling method seeks to generate a deep exfoliation of the skin in order to reactivate the regeneration and reorganization of the collagen and the stem cells of the skin.

Many of my patients are satisfied with the size of their breasts when their surgery has been recent and they wonder, with concern if when the swelling passes, will they lose the results that they have obtained.

However, because the recovery time after a breast augmentation varies from one patient to another, most of the swelling decreases between the third and sixth week. Once that time passes, it is very unlikely that if the surgery has been successful, you will lose such a volume in a cup size, which is a lot.

What is most expected is that the result is very close to what the patient can perceive once she has left her surgery. What does change is the position of the implants, since they tend to descend and locate correctly once the trauma has passed. I recommend a lot of patience and willingness to face the postoperative period to visualize the desired results.

When I decided to specialize myself as a plastic surgeon, the most important thing for me was (and still is) the safety of my patients. This is the main reason my education has been based on being the vanguard, know the advances of the profession and master the latest techniques to provide the best results.

My academic training began at the Universidad Libre de Cali, where I graduated as a doctor and surgeon. Then, in 1993, I advanced to my specialization in General Surgery at the Post Graduation Carlos Chagas Institute in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, and later I qualified as a reconstructive plastic surgeon and hand in the Fluminense Federal University in the same city in 2004.

I am currently an active member of the Colombian Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, a scientific medical entity that groups plastic surgeons duly trained and certified with academic programs endorsed by universities in Colombia or abroad.

I do what I am passionate about and wouldn’t change that for anything. I am properly trained to answer all your concerns and perform the procedures that you can inform yourself about on my website www.haroldvillalobos.co

There's a difference between getting out of bed and completing a full recovery. It all very well depends on the type of plastic surgery, the patients age, physical health condition, as well as the social and work environment in which that person is surrounded by.

For most cosmetic surgeries that don't involve the face, a week (sometimes less) is sufficient enough for an immediate recovery and the given time to return back to normal activities, that however doesn't include sport activities and activities of greater effort that should be avoided until the third or fourth week.

A full recovery is a healthy recovery, which is why the recommended time will usually range from six to twelve weeks. When several surgical procedures are combined, the initial recovery time table given to return back to work is anywhere from 7 to 14 days.
