Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty in Amato Plastic Surgery
About the clinic
Lower eyelid blepharoplasty at Amato Plastic Surgery in São Paulo, Brazil, helps patients remove fat bags and tighten sagging skin beneath the eyes. The clinic holds international accreditations from TEMOS, SBCP, ISAPS, and ASPS. Led by Dr. Fernando Campos Moraes Amato, the facility specializes in both traditional and laser-assisted techniques to improve the eye contour.
Surgical Approaches and Technology
Dr. Fernando Campos Moraes Amato performs lower eyelid surgery using two main methods depending on your needs. The transconjunctival approach places the incision inside the eyelid, leaving no external scar. This method works well for patients who only need fat removal. For those with excess skin, the transcutaneous approach uses a fine incision just below the eyelashes.
The clinic also offers a laser blepharoplasty option. Using a CO2 laser during the procedure helps reduce bleeding and swelling. This technology can lead to a faster healing process compared to standard metal scalpels. Surgery takes place in the clinic's own day hospital, supported by a dedicated anesthesia team.
Recovery and Aftercare
The procedure is typically done as a day surgery, so you do not need to stay overnight. Most patients return to work within 7 to 14 days. Following a specific timeline helps you monitor your healing progress:
- First 48 hours: Use cold compresses and keep your head elevated while resting.
- 5 to 7 days: Dr. Fernando Campos Moraes Amato removes sutures as bruising begins to fade.
- 2 weeks: You can return to social activities and use makeup to cover any faint marks.
- 1 month: Light physical activities and exercise may be resumed.
- 2 to 3 months: The scars mature, and the final contour of the eyelids becomes visible.

Accreditations and Specialist Credentials
The clinic maintains affiliations with major international and national organizations. These include the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). TEMOS accredits it for international patient care standards. The practice is led by Dr. Fernando Amato, who holds specialist registrations CRM/SP 133826 and RQE 51573.
Dr. Fernando Amato completed his medical training and plastic surgery residency at the Federal University of São Paulo. He is a member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP). His surgical approach relies on evidence-based protocols and individualized planning. Every patient receives a detailed written discussion of risks and expectations before any procedure.
Reconstructive and Aesthetic Breast Surgery
The practice is a reference center for post-mastectomy breast reconstruction and oncologic repairs. Surgeons perform both immediate and delayed reconstructions. Techniques include autologous flaps, tissue expanders, and silicone implants. The final stage often involves areola reconstruction using 3D tattooing for a natural appearance.
Aesthetic breast procedures cover a wide range of patient needs:
- Breast augmentation using Motiva implants with integrated microchips
- Mastopexy (breast lift) with or without implants
- Complex breast reduction cases, including tissue removal exceeding 1.9 kg
- Correction of tuberous breasts and breast asymmetry
- Specialized breast implant removal (explant) services
Patients undergoing breast reconstruction typically stay 1–4 days. Drains are usually removed within 14 days. Most return to work after 3 weeks.
Body Contouring and Specialized Treatments
The clinic offers surgical management for lipedema and post-bariatric body remodeling. Lipedema treatment involves 12–24 hours of hospitalization. Patients begin lymphatic drainage within 7 days and use compression therapy for up to 60 days. Body contouring for post-bariatric patients includes abdominoplasty variants like the 360-degree circumferential lift.
For male patients, the clinic provides gynecomastia surgery using a specific quilting technique. Dr. Fernando Amato developed this adhesion-suture method through his own scientific research. It reduces fluid buildup and often eliminates the need for surgical drains. Most patients return to light activities within 21 days.
Advanced Surgical Technologies
The surgical workflow integrates several energy-based platforms for better skin retraction and contouring. The clinic uses BodyTite and Morpheus8 for radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis and tissue remodeling. Surgeons also use VASER and LipoSound technologies for precise fat emulsification. Facial procedures may include endoscopic lifting and CO2 laser resurfacing.
International Patient Services
Amato Plastic Surgery provides structured planning for patients traveling from abroad. The clinic offers online consultations to review medical history and standardized photos. The team helps with recovery logistics, including discounted rates at partner hotels in São Paulo. Support is available in Portuguese, English, and Spanish.
Postoperative care includes a direct communication channel via a dedicated WhatsApp group. This connects the patient, nursing team, and surgeon for continuous guidance. The clinic schedules follow-up reviews at 6 and 12 months to monitor long-term results at no extra cost.
