Non-Surgical Body Harmonization: seven treatments for the body
We hear it often in consultations: “I exercise and this area doesn't change.” Sometimes it's localized fat. Other times it's skin that has lost firmness, stretch marks or bothersome sweating. Much of this can be treated without surgery, and Dr. Thuel will tell you which of these treatments makes sense in your case (if any of them do).
Medical consultation · US$100, VAT included. This amount is applied in full toward your treatment or procedure if you formalize it with your payment on the same day or within the following seven calendar days. It can be the full payment or a first payment of more than US$100.
Dr. Thuel personally sees every consultation, so her appointment availability is limited. We suggest booking in advance.

The doctor reviews how the area has responded. If needed, the plan is adjusted.
Expectations and risks
What these body treatments can do, and what they can't
No fine print. It's the same thing we tell you in consultation.
What to expect
- Improvement is gradual and depends on each patient.
- Area treatments do not help you lose weight and do not replace healthy habits. For that, there is Weight Loss with the doctor and nutrition.
- Recovery depends on the treatment and on each patient.
Discomfort and risks
- Pricking, heat, burning, redness or swelling.
- Depending on the treatment: bruising, irregularities, dark spots or superficial burns.
- Infrequently, infection. The doctor explains the risks specific to your case.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions about non-surgical body treatments
Do non-surgical body treatments help with weight loss?
Almost all of them aim to improve localized fat, skin or sweating in specific areas, and they do not replace a healthy diet or exercise. The one that is designed for losing weight is the Weight Loss program, with medical follow-up and nutrition appointments.
Will they hurt?
Some are more uncomfortable than others. Depending on the treatment, you may feel pricking, heat or burning, and the doctor explains beforehand what you will feel.
What is the investment for body treatments?
It varies depending on the treatment, the area and the number of sessions you need. We give you the exact price during your consultation.
The consultation costs US$100, VAT included. If you decide to have a medical treatment or procedure, that amount is applied in full toward your treatment or procedure when you formalize it with your payment on the same day as the consultation or within the following seven calendar days. It can be the full payment or a first payment of more than US$100.
I don't know which one I need. Where do I start?
With a consultation. It's normal not to know: cellulite and laxity are easily confused, and the same goes for fat and loose skin. Dr. Thuel examines the area and tells you what is and isn't appropriate.
When is surgery better than a body treatment?
When there is a lot of excess skin, fat that doesn't improve with other options, or a change in volume is desired. In that case, Dr. Thuel evaluates you together with Dr. Juan Ramón Poveda Xatruch, Physician and Surgeon, Specialist in Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, and they follow the plan as a team.
