Body Aesthetic Surgery

Surgery for the breasts, abdomen, arms, thighs, buttocks and intimate area: contouring, lifts, liposuction and fat grafting.

At Detalii Med, body aesthetic surgery brings together three areas: body contouring, breast surgery and intimate surgery. Below you will find how we work in each of them and what each involves.

Body contouring

Body contouring surgery includes procedures designed to remove excess skin, improve body contours and address localised fat deposits that persist despite a balanced diet and regular physical activity.

Changes following pregnancy, significant weight loss or the natural ageing process can affect body shape and proportions. Procedures such as abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), liposuction, body lift, arm lift (brachioplasty), thigh lift and fat transfer (lipofilling) offer surgical solutions tailored to these concerns.

At Detalii Med in Baia Mare, body contouring consultations are provided by Dr. Valeria Pruna and Dr. Marius Pruna, specialists in Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, with professional training in Romania and France and experience in body contouring procedures, including surgery following massive weight loss.

Every procedure is individually planned, taking into account the patient's anatomy, skin quality, fat distribution and aesthetic goals.

During your consultation, we carefully assess your concerns and discuss the most appropriate surgical options, their expected benefits and limitations, as well as the recovery process.

It is important to understand that body contouring surgery is not a weight-loss method. Instead, it aims to improve body shape and proportions, particularly in patients whose weight is stable and close to their long-term goals.

Surgical procedures are performed in appropriately equipped medical facilities, with the type of anaesthesia and length of hospital stay determined by the complexity of the intervention and each patient's medical needs.

Recovery varies depending on the extent of surgery and may involve wearing medical compression garments, temporarily limiting physical activity and attending scheduled follow-up appointments. Each patient receives personalised postoperative instructions and careful monitoring throughout the healing process.

The timing of surgery is equally important. If you are planning significant further weight loss or a pregnancy, these factors should be discussed during your consultation, as they may influence both the choice of procedure and the long-term stability of the results.

Our goal is to achieve natural, harmonious results that enhance body proportions while respecting each patient's individual anatomy and characteristics.

Breast surgery

Breast surgery includes procedures designed to improve breast volume, shape, position and symmetry, such as breast augmentation with implants, breast lift (mastopexy), breast reduction and correction of breast asymmetry. Reconstructive breast surgery also aims to restore breast shape following oncological procedures or other conditions affecting breast anatomy.

At Detalii Med in Baia Mare, breast surgery consultations are provided by Dr. Valeria Pruna and Dr. Marius Pruna, specialists in Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, with professional training in Romania and France and experience in both aesthetic and reconstructive breast surgery.

Every patient has unique anatomical characteristics, personal expectations and aesthetic goals. For this reason, the consultation begins with understanding the changes you would like to achieve: increased volume, improved breast shape and position, reduced breast size or better symmetry.

Following a thorough clinical assessment, we discuss the most suitable surgical options, taking into account your individual anatomy, body proportions and desired outcome. We explain the technical aspects of each procedure, including implant selection when appropriate, incision placement, postoperative scarring and recovery expectations.

Breast surgery procedures are performed in appropriately equipped and authorised medical facilities outside Detalii Med, according to the complexity of each intervention. Preoperative assessment and postoperative follow-up are coordinated by your treating surgeon to ensure continuity of care throughout the surgical journey.

We believe that successful surgery begins with appropriate medical indications and realistic expectations. During your consultation, we openly discuss the benefits, limitations and potential risks of each procedure, as well as situations in which surgery may be better postponed, including a planned pregnancy or ongoing breastfeeding.

Our goal is to achieve natural, harmonious results that complement your body proportions while respecting your individual anatomy and personal preferences.

Intimate surgery

Intimate surgery includes procedures designed to address anatomical characteristics or changes in the genital area that may cause physical discomfort, functional difficulties or aesthetic concerns.

Procedures such as labiaplasty and other forms of genital correction or reconstruction may help relieve discomfort during physical activity, when wearing certain types of clothing or during intimate activities. They may also address persistent aesthetic concerns, depending on individual needs and expectations.

At Detalii Med in Baia Mare, intimate surgery consultations and procedures are provided by Dr. Valeria Pruna and Dr. Marius Pruna, specialists in Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, with professional training in Romania and France.

We understand that discussing intimate concerns can feel difficult. For this reason, discretion, respect and patient comfort are essential parts of our approach.

Consultations take place in a private and confidential medical setting, where you can openly discuss your concerns, symptoms and expectations without fear of judgement.

During your consultation, we carefully assess your individual anatomy, identify any functional concerns and discuss the available treatment options. Every recommendation is personalised, taking into account both medical considerations and your individual preferences.

Not every anatomical variation requires surgical correction. If surgery is not medically appropriate, or if the expected benefits do not justify the potential risks, we will discuss this openly and explore other options when relevant.

Depending on the complexity of the procedure and individual medical requirements, surgery may be performed under local anaesthesia, with or without sedation, or under general anaesthesia.

Recovery is usually gradual, with light daily activities often resumed within approximately 1–2 weeks. Strenuous exercise and sexual intercourse generally require a longer recovery period, according to your surgeon's recommendations.

Each patient receives personalised postoperative instructions and scheduled follow-up appointments to monitor healing and recovery.

Our approach focuses on respecting individual anatomy, preserving function and achieving natural-looking results tailored to each patient's needs.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to reach my ideal weight before abdominoplasty or liposuction?

You do not need to achieve a "perfect" weight. However, it is generally recommended that your weight has remained stable for several months and is close to the weight you intend to maintain long-term. Abdominoplasty and liposuction are body contouring procedures, not weight-loss treatments. Significant weight fluctuations after surgery may affect the aesthetic outcome. During your consultation, we evaluate fat distribution, excess skin, skin quality and your overall health to determine whether surgery is appropriate and when it may be best performed.

How long does recovery take after body contouring surgery?

Recovery depends on the type and extent of the procedure, as well as individual healing characteristics. Following limited liposuction, light daily activities can often be resumed within a few days, while more extensive procedures may require a longer recovery period. After abdominoplasty or a body lift, patients can usually return gradually to their usual daily activities within approximately 2–3 weeks. Strenuous exercise is generally restricted for 4–6 weeks or longer, depending on postoperative progress. Wearing medical compression garments, when indicated, and following your surgeon's postoperative recommendations are important aspects of recovery. Each patient receives a personalised recovery plan and scheduled follow-up appointments to monitor the healing process.

Will there be visible scars after body contouring surgery?

Procedures involving the removal of excess skin, such as abdominoplasty, arm lift or thigh lift, result in permanent scars. Incisions are carefully planned to make scars as discreet as possible and, whenever anatomy and surgical technique allow, to position them in areas that can be concealed by underwear or clothing. Scars typically become less noticeable over time, although their final appearance varies between individuals. Scar maturation may take 12–18 months or longer. In the case of liposuction, incisions are much smaller and the resulting scars are generally less noticeable. During your consultation, we discuss the expected location, length and evolution of scars, helping you develop realistic expectations about the final outcome.

How is breast implant size selected?

Choosing the right breast implant involves more than selecting a volume in millilitres. It requires a careful assessment of your anatomy and body proportions. During your consultation, we evaluate breast base width, chest dimensions, existing breast tissue, skin quality and elasticity, as well as your desired aesthetic outcome. Based on these factors, we discuss suitable implant options, considering not only volume but also implant shape and projection. Our aim is to achieve a balanced, natural-looking result that complements your figure and respects your individual anatomy.

Can I breastfeed after breast augmentation or a breast lift?

Breastfeeding remains possible after many aesthetic breast procedures. However, the ability to breastfeed may be influenced by the type of surgery and the surgical technique used. Following breast augmentation, the function of the mammary gland is generally preserved. After a breast lift or reduction, breastfeeding potential depends on several factors, including the preservation of glandular tissue, milk ducts and nipple innervation. If you are planning a pregnancy, it is important to discuss this during your consultation, as it may influence the choice of surgical technique or the timing of your procedure. Our approach is to select the most appropriate surgical option while considering both your aesthetic goals and the preservation of breast function whenever possible.

How private and confidential is an intimate surgery consultation?

We understand the importance of privacy and confidentiality when discussing concerns related to the intimate area. Consultations take place in a private medical setting, designed to respect each patient's comfort and dignity. Your medical information is handled confidentially, with access restricted to authorised healthcare personnel involved in your care, in accordance with applicable medical confidentiality and data protection regulations. Our aim is to provide a respectful, supportive environment where you can ask questions and discuss your concerns openly and confidently.
