Urology Treatments in Centro Quirúrgico de la Belleza (CQB)

Centro Quirúrgico de la Belleza (CQB) is an integrated plastic surgery and aesthetic clinic in Cali, Colombia. It opened in 1992. Today it is a complete center for surgery, hospital stays, and recovery. The clinic has a staff of 62 people, including 28 physicians from several medical specialties.

Accreditations and Quality Standards

The clinic has held ISO 9001 certification since 2005. This quality framework focuses on ongoing risk checks and international patient safety goals. These goals include correct patient identification, medication safety, and lower infection risk. Many of the clinic's specialists belong to major professional organizations:

• American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS)
• International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS)
• Ibero-American Federation of Plastic Surgery (FILACP)
• Colombian Society of Plastic, Aesthetic, and Reconstructive Surgery

A structured quality management system covers nine core processes to keep surgery safe.

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

The surgical team performs many body and facial procedures. Its surgeons trained at several international institutions:

• University of Toronto
• University of São Paulo
• Autonomous University of Barcelona

Body contouring and enhancement options include:

• Lipoescultura (liposculpture) to remove localized fat with liposuction
• Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) to tighten belly skin and muscles
• Breast augmentation mammoplasty
• Abdominal marking for a defined muscle appearance

Facial surgeries include rhinoplasty to reshape the bridge or tip of the nose. It usually takes 2 to 3 hours. Surgeons also perform blepharoplasty for eyelid correction and bichectomía to reduce cheek volume. Patients who want non-surgical nose correction can choose rinomodelación instead of traditional surgery.

Urology and Gender-Affirming Care

Specialists with fellowships from the Belgrade Center for Urogenital Reconstructive Surgery lead the urology department. Their fellowships focused on reconstructive surgery. The department covers both functional and aesthetic procedures on the genital and urinary organs. Key services include:

• Gender-affirming genital surgeries, including vaginoplasty
• Penile enlargement surgery
• Reconstructive urogenital surgery
• Complex kidney diagnostics and urological examinations

Intimate procedures such as labiaplasty take about one hour. They are done on an outpatient basis. The definitive recovery period starts after one month.

Specialized Medical Infrastructure

The clinic has 7 modern operating rooms equipped for plastic and reconstructive surgery. An on-site specialized clinical laboratory handles diagnostic tests. It runs complete blood counts and urine analysis, so results for surgical preparation come back quickly.

For recovery, the facility has 8 monitored alcobas (hospital rooms) with 24/7 staff supervision. Several therapies support healing after surgery:

• Hyperbaric chamber to boost tissue oxygen and healing
• Radiofrequency treatments for skin tightening and recovery
• Lymphatic drainage massages to reduce swelling after surgery

The clinic has an academic space where surgeons discuss innovations and best practices in surgical technique.

Services for International Patients

CQB runs an on-site Recovery Hotel in the same building as the surgical center. This means international patients can recover in a clinical setting without traveling between locations. Standard rooms and suites are available, and each can host up to three people. A medical doctor and nursing auxiliaries are on call 24/7.
