Established in 2024, Dr. Douglas Westphal's clinic is a private single-doctor practice in Porto Alegre's Bela Vista neighborhood. The facility focuses on plastic surgery and aesthetic medicine. It offers both surgical and minimally invasive treatments. Dr. Westphal performs all procedures in recognized hospitals throughout Porto Alegre.

He also holds memberships in the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS). The clinic's professional credentials are CREMERS 32841 and RQE 26249.

Dr. Westphal graduated from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS). He then completed general surgery training at Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre (HCPA) and specialized in plastic surgery at PUC-RS. The clinic frequently treats international patients, especially those from Uruguay and the United States.

Surgical Specialties and Techniques

The clinic offers surgical options for body contouring, breast enhancement, and facial rejuvenation. Dr. Westphal creates personalized surgical plans for every patient. Pre-operative evaluations cover specific exams and medication adjustments to manage risks. The surgical team covers several key areas:

• Body Contouring: The clinic offers Lipo HD Total Definer and Abdominoplastia HD Estruturada. Dr. Westphal developed this technique to redefine the abdominal area while correcting muscle separation.
• Breast Surgery: Procedures include mastopexy with reduced-scar techniques, breast implants, reduction surgery, and gynecomastia treatment.
• Facial Procedures: Options include facelifts, blepharoplasty, and otoplasty for prominent ears. The clinic also offers chin contouring and deep plane facelifts.
• Additional Body Lifting: The practice provides brachioplasty, cruroplasty, and gluteal implant surgery using personalized implants for natural projection.

Patients may combine certain procedures, such as abdominal surgery and mastopexy, when the medical team confirms it is safe. This approach optimizes results while consolidating recovery time.

Advanced Technologies and Skin Firming

Dr. Westphal uses modern energy-based platforms to improve skin firmness and refine surgical outcomes. The clinic uses Safer ultrasound technology during liposuction and abdominoplasty. This tool controls bleeding and reduces post-operative pain. It also removes fat more evenly than traditional methods.

For facial and body rejuvenation, the clinic uses the InMode BodyTite platform. This includes FaceTite and AccuTite applicators, which use radiofrequency to stimulate collagen. The clinic also uses Morpheus8 technology for deep skin remodeling. In some cases, Dr. Westphal combines Morpheus treatments with a plasma jet to enhance results on the arms and flanks.

Patient Services and International Support

The clinic provides dedicated support for international patients and those traveling from other Brazilian states. A specialized team handles airport reception and coordination, so arrival goes smoothly. Post-operative care includes detailed home care instructions and a structured follow-up schedule. The medical team stays present through the entire recovery process, managing dressing changes and medication timing.
