Surgical Specialties and Methods
The clinic focuses on three primary areas:
- Facial Rejuvenation – Includes facelifts and cervicofacial techniques.
- Breast Enhancement – Offers both implant-based and natural tissue options.
- Body Contouring – Reshapes the abdomen and limbs.
Breast Enhancement and Reconstruction
Surgeons perform breast augmentation, lifting, and reduction with a focus on natural symmetry. They use breast sizers during planning to help patients select the right implant volume. The clinic offers implants with polyurethane coverage for both new placements and exchanges. For patients removing implants, the team performs mastopexy using the patient's own tissues.
Breast augmentation and mastopexy with implants typically take 30 minutes. Patients generally need 5 days for initial recovery. Those having a lift without implants may return to social activities after two weeks. The clinic advises avoiding sun and heat for six weeks after surgery.
Facial and Ear Surgery
Specialists perform rhinoplasty and septoplasty to improve both appearance and breathing. The clinic provides isotonic saline and chamomile compresses to reduce swelling. Patients must avoid glasses that press on the nasal bridge during early healing. Full sensitivity in the facial area may take up to one year to return.
Otoplasty requires a 6-week recovery timeline. The clinic removes surgical staples between 7 and 14 days after the procedure. For eyelid surgery, recovery is staged. This includes cold compresses for 24 hours, then professional massage starting on day four.
Body Contouring and Gynecomastia
The clinic offers several types of abdominoplasty:
- Standard abdominoplasty to repair abdominal muscles
- Fleur De Lis Tummy Tuck for significant skin removal
- Six Pack Male Tummy Tuck for muscle definition
- Combinations with liposculpture
Gynecomastia reduction treats abnormal enlargement of male breast tissue. The procedure takes about 30 minutes to complete. Recovery time is typically 5 days. Surgeons use periareolar approaches to minimize visible scarring.
Safety Protocols and International Services
Patients must follow specific preparation steps before surgery. The clinic requires stopping anticoagulants like Aspirin and Clopidogrel two weeks beforehand. Supplements such as Omega 3 and Vitamin E must be stopped five days prior. Smoking or vaping is prohibited for 15 days before the procedure.
The clinic supports international patients with dedicated materials. Care instructions and procedure details are available in English and Spanish. Coordination staff speak both languages to help with treatment planning. Patients receive structured recovery milestones to manage their stay in the Dominican Republic.
