Dr. Jonathan Masson

With high-definition liposuction planned around your anatomy—rather than using a single standard approach—Dr. Jonathan Masson helps patients in Medellín achieve a more defined body contour when localized fat and skin quality allow. As a specialist at this clinic, his practice in plastic, aesthetic, and reconstructive surgery is based in Medellín, Colombia, with operations performed in licensed operating rooms at AC Quirófanos and Quirófanos 2Sur. The consultation is designed to be practical: medical history and current health information are reviewed alongside anatomy and the patient’s goals and realistic expectations. The plan is then defined by the surgeon for that specific case, including whether high-definition liposuction is appropriate and what preparation and follow-up are needed. Beyond high-definition liposuction, the clinic’s surgical pathway covers tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) and lipoabdominoplasty, gluteal fat transfer for a Brazilian Butt Lift, and breast surgery options such as augmentation with implants, breast lift (mastopexy), and breast reduction. Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) and reconstructive work related to scars and sequelae are also part of the practice. When technology is indicated, VASER-assisted and power-assisted liposuction (including MicroAire) are used to support fat removal, and the choice of technology is made during the consultation based on the type of fat, the area, and the skin. For patients traveling from abroad, the clinic supports Spanish communication with interpreter and translation technology and can help coordinate recovery logistics during the stay in Medellín. The clinic also emphasizes safety and informed decision-making, including guidance on smoking cessation around surgery and individualized discussion of procedure-specific risks.

Clinical focus and techniques

As a specialist at this clinic, Dr. Jonathan Masson builds each surgical plan after an in-person consultation that reviews health status, relevant anatomy, and realistic goals—then selects the technique and technology based on what the surgeon determines for that person.

• High-Definition Liposuction — focused on working with localized fat over the muscle relief for a more defined contour when skin and fat quality allow.
• VASER-assisted liposuction — ultrasound energy is used to treat fat before it is removed.
• Power-assisted liposuction (MicroAire) — a vibrating cannula is used to facilitate extraction.
• Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) — considered for excess skin and abdominal-wall changes after an in-person assessment.
• Lipoabdominoplasty — combined contouring of the abdomen using liposculpture plus abdominoplasty.
• Brazilian Butt Lift (gluteal fat transfer) — uses the patient’s own fat obtained through liposuction, with fat grafted only in the subcutaneous plane.
• Breast augmentation with implants — volume and chest proportion are discussed using measurements, skin quality, and the amount of native tissue.
• Breast lift (mastopexy) — planned according to breast position, shape, and tissue characteristics; can be combined with implants if more volume is desired.
• Breast reduction — discussed as part of breast surgery planning in individualized consultations.
• Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) — assessed individually for anatomy and expectations.
• Reconstructive surgery for scars and sequelae — included in the clinic’s reconstructive pathway.
