Waist Reduction in Colombia

Dr. Giovanny Alvarado is the first plastic surgeon in Cali, Colombia, to perform the innovative Waist Reduction or Remodeling Procedure, which is currently a trend and a success in Europe.

What Is Minimally Invasive Waist Reduction?

This is a short-duration procedure with quick recovery, performed through two small 5-millimeter incisions on the back. Using instruments specifically designed for this procedure, the structure of the waist is modified, achieving results that go beyond what liposculpture alone can offer.

The procedure lasts about one hour, is performed under regional anesthesia, and has an average recovery time of two days, allowing patients to resume their daily activities shortly after surgery, except for extreme exercise and contact sports.

Results are visible immediately, but as with other procedures, the final results take about two months to appear..

Who Can Undergo a Waist Reduction?

Any patient who wants to improve their waist-to-hip ratio can undergo this procedure. The ratio is calculated by dividing the hip circumference (measured at the fullest part of the buttocks) by the waist circumference (measured at the narrowest point).

The ideal ratio ranges from 1.5 to 1.6. For example, with the measurements 90-60-90, the waist-to-hip ratio would be 1.5. Achieving a ratio of 1.6 creates the most harmonious result, as 1.6 is considered the “golden ratio,” historically used by artists and architects to achieve aesthetic perfection.

Patients who can benefit from this procedure include:

  • Patients with a wide waist compared to their hips.
  • Patients who have previously undergone liposculpture or abdominoplasty but have not achieved their desired waist size.
  • Patients who exercise frequently and do not have enough fat to reduce the waist through liposuction or liposculpture.
  • Patients with a normal weight who do not wish to undergo liposuction.

This procedure was originally designed for athletic women and is particularly beneficial for those with a low body fat percentage and a wider waist due to regular physical activity.

How Much Can My Waist Be Reduced?

One advantage of this technique is that the final waist size can be controlled during the first two months after surgery. If the patient is satisfied with the achieved result, the process can be stopped at that point.

The final result varies from patient to patient, but we always aim for a harmonious ratio between the waist, hips, and back.

Some patients desire an hourglass waist or a wasp waist, and in such cases, we provide guidance to ensure results that maintain the ideal proportions of 1.5 to 1.6. We do not recommend excessive waist reduction.

How Much Does Waist Reduction Cost?

The current cost of the procedure in Europe is €4,900, but in Colombia, the cost is lower and depends on the complexity of the surgery. For a final price, you can schedule a personalized or virtual consultation via WhatsApp.
