Some patients fail to see the danger that run their lives by putting them in the hands of malicious unscrupulous people capable of wearing a white coat and become calling doctors, pretending to be specialists to gain the confidence of their victims enthusing them with a new image, but at what price?

A syringe filled with oil for aircraft, industrial silicone, oil, cooking and even cement among other illegal substances, have been injected into people by lack of information or money, taking the ""best opportunity"" without knowing that his life depends on it.

Here I tell you some of the biopolymers that must not be apply never in your body:

1 Biogel or silicone: injectable filler that is nothing more than high viscosity mineral oil or silicon oil. Injection with this type of substances generates encapsulation of consequences such as alterations in the immune system, deformities, infections, inflammation, discharge of pus or matter, respiratory failure, and the silicone embolism pulmonary and even death.

2 POLYACRYLIC glass (PMMA): substance mainly composed of acrylic and gel. Some people use it to correct wrinkles, increase buttocks, lifting of cheekbones and calf augmentation. When this substance is injected, it penetrates the muscle tissues and crystallizes producing fibrosis. The affected tissue reacts naturally trying to expel such a substance in the body which causes the crystals to move to other areas.

3 Hialucorp: this substance despite its registry Invima in Colombia, is one of the many that although he says contain hyaluronic acid, consists largely of silica; to inject into the body can generate harmful health effects, such as severe infections leaving sequelae of life or destruction of tissues.

4 Dimethyl polysiloxane or silicone: known as expandable cells, is nothing more than dilute silicone that by becoming solid favors information granulomas or skin bumps. The consequences are extremely painful and almost irreparable.

I invite all of my patients  to be  informed and do not allow anyone to play around  with their health. Always check with certified experts taking all possible precautions.

I always tell my patients that the use of a girdle after having  a contouring procedure is crucial for successful results. The time of duration of  girdle depends largely on the progress of the recovery, but usually compression garments must be use around 3 months after surgery. Among the benefits offered by the use of the garment are: 1. helps reduce bruising and swelling since the girdle compression optimizes the blood circulation and reduces fluid retention. 2. the compression of the Strip in the surgical area minimizes the movement of tissues involved in the surgery, allows the incisions to remain protected and clean in the early stages of healing by reducing the risk of infection. 3. reduces the risk of irregularities on the surface of the skin such as ripples or bumps. 4. the use of the garment  in  the trat areas  as the abdomen exerts uniform pressure on the area to improve the adhesion of the skin and cure.

Technically speaking, laser liposuction is a new, effective procedure to eliminate excess of fat in hips, abdomen, thighs, arms, neck and face. One of the advantages of the lipolaser is that it's a much less aggressive with  body because LÁSER breaks the fat cells, before aspiration preventing  less bleeding or bruising something very common in traditional liposuction. 

During the following 24 should not do any kind of exercise, after some days you can can do low impact exercise like walking so that the blood flow begins to be activated and recovery is satisfactory. With hot baths in the treated area will help the movement to regenerate much faster.

Liposuction is a cosmetic operation that demands professional staff, experts in surgery and anesthesia, besides this like any other surgical procedure must be carried in a room specialized as an operating room, and in no way in a room of a House that is not suitable for this type of procedures. All surgery must meet health and formal procedures. To avoid becoming a victim of clandestine places where to practice without any kind of professionalism surgeries, leave some recommendations to keep in mind:

1. it is important to ensure that the person who placed the anesthesia is a qualified medical professional. The lack of a real anesthesiologist can lead to tragic results.

2. the hygienic conditions of the place and the working tools are of total importance, since the lack of asepsis and hygiene in the working tools can cause infections that can be put at risk the life of the patient.

3. people performing such procedures without studies previous, certified and supported by the society of Surgeons of the country, augment the chances of damage to any organ or tissue, to cause death.

Unfortunately some people unscrupulous that lends itself to perform this type of interventions without having sanitation and basic and essential operation conditions putting at great risk to the person who puts in their hands. 

One of the most common problems after surgery with breast implants, tends to be the same encapsulation, that forms a capsule and contracture capping. This usually occurs because the body reacts against a foreign body forming a tissue or capsule to your around, as result of this contraction compressed the implant, causing pain in the breasts, hardening, displacement or movement of the implant or extreme sensitivity. The frequency of this encapsulation has declined considerably to improvements in the design of implants and especially in the surgical techniques used in the operation. In this case some surgeons recommend their patients own massage or ultrasound for its prevention.
