The 37-year-old actress, who in recent years has dedicated herself to the fitness field – having even won second place last year in the bikini fitness contest – turned to Clínica Luso Espanhola, in Porto, and the experienced hands of surgeon Emílio Valls to undergo to face lipofilling.
Due to his good shape, it was even difficult to “find fat” on his body that could be transplanted onto his face. “Because I have little fat on my body, my face was getting thinner and thinner. I was feeling more tired and old”, Raquel Henriques told Move Notícias, explaining the reasons that led her to undergo the aesthetic intervention.
After the surgery, the actress could not be more satisfied with the result: “Now I think the face is more in line with the rest of the body.”
To keep her body in shape, Raquel is very strict with her diet. “I consume the nutrients I need to be healthy. In addition to eating carefully, I don’t smoke, I don’t drink alcohol and I get eight hours of sleep”, he said, advocating the motto “healthy body, healthy mind”.
Much sought after treatment
Lipofilling (which consists of removing fat from one part of the body to inject into another part) is a treatment that is increasingly sought after at Clínica Luso Espanhola. This is because the “results are fantastic”. “This treatment not only adds volume, but also regenerates the area where the fat is transplanted”, explained surgeon Emílio Valls, adding that the patient’s recovery is relatively quick: “Four or five days after the operation the person can return to your normal life.”
In addition to lipofilling being suitable for filling the face, it can also be used to add more volume to the buttocks or breasts.
