Clinic Rangel is a private multidisciplinary facility in Porto Alegre, Brazil. Established in 2024, it provides integrated aesthetic care across two specialized departments. Dr. Luis Carlos Acevedo Rangel leads the clinic as a single-doctor practice. His team includes specialized patient coordinators and administrative staff. Every patient receives a personalized care plan focused on long-term well-being and aesthetic results.
Professional Accreditations and Safety Standards
The clinic holds several certifications for surgical safety and treatment quality. Dr. Luis Carlos Acevedo Rangel is a specialist member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP). He also holds membership in the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. The facility complies with the Federal Council of Medicine and the Regional Council of Medicine (CREMERS).
Plastic Surgery and Body Contouring
The surgical department focuses on body and breast reshaping through modern techniques. Surgeons use HD Liposuction to define muscle contours in the abdomen, flanks, and back. For post-bariatric patients, the clinic provides specialized reconstruction and flancoplasty to remove excess tissue. The surgical team performs several breast and body procedures:
- Mastopexy with breast implants to correct sagging and restore volume
- Gluteoplasty using implants to improve buttock symmetry and shape
- Abdominoplasty and mini-abdominoplasty for abdominal wall repair
- Mommy Makeover programs combining multiple breast and body surgeries
- Brachioplasty to address skin laxity in the upper arms
Dr. Luis Carlos Acevedo Rangel completed his plastic surgery specialization at Hospital São Lucas da PUCRS. He also trained in craniofacial surgery at Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre. This background allows him to perform complex facial reconstructions alongside aesthetic work. The clinic supports all surgical patients with a dedicated recovery pathway. This includes nutrition follow-up and specialized physiotherapy.
Facial Aesthetic and Non-Surgical Care
The aesthetic medicine department provides both surgical and minimally invasive facial rejuvenation. Surgical options include facelifts, cervicoplasty for the neck area, and rhinoplasty. For patients seeking non-surgical improvements, several injectable and energy-based treatments are available. These methods improve skin texture and volume without significant downtime:
- Facial harmonization using hyaluronic acid fillers
- Collagen bio-stimulators for progressive skin tightening
- Focused micro-ultrasound for non-surgical lifting
- Botulinum toxin applications to reduce expression lines
- Dermabrasion and micro-needling for texture correction
These procedures are often combined for natural-looking results. Bio-stimulator results develop gradually, so the transition appears subtle. Physiotherapy support is available for facial surgery patients to reduce swelling and speed healing.
Advanced Treatment Technologies
Clinic Rangel uses specific energy-based platforms to enhance surgical and non-surgical outcomes. The Morpheus8 system combines micro-needling with radiofrequency to stimulate collagen and reduce wrinkles. For body contouring, the clinic uses Argon 4 technology. This device applies argon plasma energy and radiofrequency to contract tissue under the skin and improve laxity. Specialists also use VASER technology for precise fat emulsification during liposuction. Vibrating probes in vibrolipoaspiração help minimize trauma to surrounding tissues during fat removal.
International Patient Services
International patients receive structured guidance through a multidisciplinary team. The clinic has dedicated consultants to assist with treatment planning. Support staff include a secretary who manages care coordination and patient reception. The clinic provides a complete care continuum from initial consultation to postoperative monitoring. This includes long-term recovery support through nutritional counseling and physical rehabilitation.
