The Athena Procedure: Defining and Sculpting the Female Aesthetic Patient With Selective Fat Removal and Transfer 2024
By Constantino Mendieta, MD
Dr. Constantino Mendieta performs his “Athena” procedure on two female patients in this video series, using liposuction and fat injection to define and sculpt the abdomen, waist, hips, thighs, and buttocks.
An extensive understanding of anatomy drives Dr. Mendieta’s success with this procedure, as well as respect for each individual patient’s anatomy.
Bountiful tips are shared throughout the videos for patient safety and avoiding complications. Dr. Mendieta demonstrates his step-by-step technique, including extensive preoperative markings and discussion of his unique evaluation system of aesthetic units or “zones,” preoperative preparation, suctioning and pre-tunneling to break up the fat before injecting to add volume, patient positioning to achieve 360-degree sculpting, and demonstration of the use of ultrasound to guide fat placement and avoid injury.
Dr. Mendieta also shares the medications and equipment he relies on to deliver successful results to his patients.
