Instead, it works best for people with localized fat in areas like the calves, knees, or thighs. Before surgery, patients undergo a detailed consultation. During this talk, Dr. Denis Riccardi reviews the patient's medical history and lifestyle goals. Honesty about health history is vital to plan a safe surgery.

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.
- Brazilian Society of Dermatology (SBD) board 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. During planning, patients receive guidance on pre-operative exams, including blood tests and diagnostic imaging.
