About the clinic
Anti-wrinkle injectables at Clinic Riccardi in Porto Alegre, Brazil, provide a quick way to smooth expression lines. A botulinum toxin injection typically runs around $90. The clinic holds prestigious accreditations from TEMOS, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, and the Brazilian Society of Dermatology.
Treatment Details and Results
The procedure uses botulinum toxin type A or type B to target specific facial muscles. It helps soften frown lines, forehead creases, crow's feet, and neck bands. A session is fast and usually lasts under 15 minutes. Most patients do not need any anesthesia for these injections.
You can expect to see initial results within a few days. The full effect of the treatment shows up within a week. These results generally last between 3 to 4 months. As the medicine wears off, wrinkles will gradually reappear, and you may choose to repeat the treatment.
Muscle Targeting and Comfort
The specialist uses a precise number of injections based on the area. Crow's feet usually require 2 to 3 injections per side. Brow furrows often need 5 or more injections for a smooth finish. The treatment only affects the muscles that cause wrinkles. This method helps you keep your natural facial expressions.
There is no downtime after the session. Most people return to their normal activities immediately. The clinic is located in the Moinhos de Vento neighborhood of Porto Alegre, known for its high medical standards.
Customized Facial Rejuvenation
Patients can choose to combine these injections with other aesthetic services. This often includes dermal fillers, chemical peels, or microdermabrasion. Combining methods helps address different types of aging signs at once.

clinic Riccardi: more details about the clinic
Clinic Riccardi is a multi-specialty facility established in 2014 in Porto Alegre. Located in the Moinhos de Vento neighborhood, it occupies a single dedicated building. The clinic specializes in plastic surgery and aesthetic medicine. It serves patients seeking surgical body contouring and non-invasive rejuvenation.
Accreditations and Specialist Credentials
The clinic holds several international and national professional affiliations. These credentials signal compliance with rigorous surgical and safety standards:
- TEMOS international accreditation for quality in medical care.
- American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) membership.
- Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP) certification.

Founder Dr. Denis Riccardi is an international member of the ASPS. Dr. José Carlos Riccardi brings over 45 years of medical experience. He serves as President of the Technical Chamber of Dermatology in RGS.
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
The surgical department focuses on anatomy-informed planning for body and facial procedures. Surgeons perform complex reconstructions and aesthetic enhancements. For facelifts, patients often see a rejuvenation effect of 10 to 15 years. This improvement is most visible in the neck and eye regions.
The clinic offers a full range of surgical options:
- Breast surgery: augmentation with silicone implants, reduction, and mastopexy.
- Breast reconstruction: restoring shape and size after mastectomy or injury.
- Body contouring: abdominoplasty, liposuction, and thigh lifts.
- Brachioplasty: removing excess skin and fat from the upper arms.
- Gynecomastia surgery: treating male breast enlargement through glandular removal.
- Facial surgery: rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), and otoplasty.
For gynecomastia, specialists recommend reaching a stable weight before surgery. This helps achieve the most proportional chest contour. Patients wear a compression vest afterward to reduce swelling and support healing.
Aesthetic Medicine and Skin Care
The dermatology unit focuses on modern rejuvenation and skin cancer care. Specialists treat hypertrophic scars and keloids using surgical revision and advanced closure techniques.
Non-invasive options improve skin texture without traditional surgery. These include injectable dermal fillers and botulinum toxin to smooth wrinkles.
Advanced Treatment Technologies
The clinic uses energy-based platforms for skin tightening and resurfacing. These technologies target various skin layers to stimulate new collagen growth. The medical team applies them to treat acne scars, deep wrinkles, and lesions.
Featured technologies include:
- Ultrapulsed CO2 Laser: removes the outer epidermis while heating the dermis layer.
- Morpheus: fractional technology that improves skin firmness and stimulates collagen.
- Precision laser therapy: delivers concentrated light beams to reduce blemishes and scars.
CO2 laser recovery typically lasts 3 to 10 days. The clinic provides detailed aftercare instructions to manage temporary redness and support skin hydration.
Services for International Patients
Clinic Riccardi supports international visitors with a multilingual medical team. Staff consult in Portuguese, English, and Spanish. The clinic provides English-language procedure materials to help patients understand their treatment paths.
