Facial Plastic Surgery and Rejuvenation
The clinic offers surgical and minimally invasive options for facial enhancement. Otoplasty corrects protruding or asymmetrical ears in children from age 6 and adults. For nasal concerns, patients can choose traditional rhinoplasty or non-surgical rhinomodelation.
- Rhinomodelation: An office-based procedure using hyaluronic acid fillers to reshape the nose in 20–30 minutes.
- MD Codes®: A structural rejuvenation technique using hyaluronic acid to support natural collagen production.
- Bichectomy: A one-hour surgical procedure to remove buccal fat pads through internal oral incisions.
- Profhilo: An injectable treatment using 100% hyaluronic acid to hydrate and firm three skin layers.
Facelift surgery (ritidoplastia) is available for patients seeking advanced skin tightening. Detailed post-operative guidance helps manage recovery. The clinic also corrects deviated septums to improve breathing.
Body Contouring and Aesthetic Surgery
Surgical body procedures use general or peridural anesthesia with scheduled recovery observation. Tummy tucks remove excess skin and fat while reinforcing the abdominal muscles. The surgery typically lasts two hours and requires 12 hours of hospital observation.
The clinic offers several methods for body remodeling and fat reduction:
- Gluteoplasty: Buttock augmentation using either silicone implants or fat grafting from other body areas.
- Brachioplasty: An arm lift procedure to remove excess tissue, often combined with liposuction.
- Gynecomastia Surgery: Correction of enlarged male breast tissue caused by hormonal changes or excess fat.
- Morpheus 8: A non-surgical treatment using gold-coated needles to melt fat cells and stimulate collagen.
Most surgical patients return for a clinical review and dressing change at 48 hours. Many procedures use absorbable sutures, which simplifies recovery.
Advanced Treatment Technologies
The practice uses specialized energy-based platforms for skin remodeling and tissue tightening. Fotona laser technology combines two wavelengths for multi-level treatment. The Erbium YAG laser performs ablative peels for fine wrinkles. The Nd YAG laser targets deeper vascular issues and skin laxity. Morpheus 8 provides fractional remodeling to improve skin texture and contour without invasive surgery.
Services for International Patients
The clinic coordinates care for international patients through structured Bookimed workflows. Patient coordinators and medical staff provide support in multiple languages:
- Portuguese
- English
- Spanish
Post-operative support includes digital guidance materials for home care after liposuction, facelifts, and breast surgeries. Treatment plans are organized around the patient's arrival and evaluation needs.
