02 Lipo+Sculpt

Define the line. Not just the volume.

Lipo+Sculpt is an advanced body contouring procedure, also known as LipoSculpture, that enhances natural beauty by selectively removing stubborn fat deposits. It allows individuals to achieve their ideal body silhouette by sculpting curves and defining contours.

In this theatre the case is built on VASER ultrasound, MicroAire power-assisted liposuction and Body-Jet water-jet harvest. Candidacy and technique stay with the surgeon. Liposuction on the DOH licence is under 2.5 litres.

The reel is on @advancedaesthetics.ph. Procedure pages open on the clinic site, where you can enquire about the option that fits.

Solta Medical

VASER

Ultrasonic liposuction. Fat is emulsified selectively before it is removed, so Lipo+Sculpt can define a curve instead of only reducing volume.

Ultrasonic · selective emulsification

Power-assisted liposuction

MicroAire PAL

A reciprocating cannula takes fat evenly across the abdomen, flanks and trunk, with the surgeon guiding the line.

Reciprocating cannula

human med

Body-Jet

Water-jet assisted liposuction. A pulsed fluid jet loosens fat for a gentler harvest, including fat kept for transfer.

08 Perspectives

Why surgeons look at a commons.

“I do not want a decade of debt for a theatre that sits dark three days a week.”

Independent surgeon · Plastic surgery, Metro Manila

“If the lounge is only a waiting room, it is not a commons. Credentialing is the product.”

Consultant · ENT

“Priority scheduling and a person who answers matter more than a marble lobby.”
