CO2 Laser Treatment in Cristiano Campos plastic surgery Ipanema
About the clinic
CO2 laser treatment at Cristiano Campos plastic surgery Ipanema in Rio de Janeiro helps rejuvenate skin and reduce visible imperfections. The clinic follows strict regulations from the Brazilian National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA). Specialists at this facility use fractional technology to improve skin texture with less downtime than older methods.
How Fractional CO2 Laser Works
The clinic uses a fractional CO2 laser that divides a single light beam into many micro-beams. This technology targets water in the surface layer of the skin to trigger natural retraction. By leaving small areas of skin untouched between the beams, the body heals much faster. The process boosts collagen production to create smoother and firmer skin. Patients often see visible changes after the very first session.
Indications for Treatment
This procedure addresses several common skin concerns on the face and body. It is a common choice for patients looking to improve the following:
- Facial wrinkles and fine lines
- Acne scars or general surgical scarring
- Sun spots and pigmentation issues
- Stretch marks on different body areas
- General skin rejuvenation for a refreshed look
Expertise and Patient Care
Dr. Cristiano Campos leads the medical team with specialized training in laser and cosmetology from Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein. He is a member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP) and studied at the Ivo Pitangui Institute. Dr. Carlos Fernando Gomes de Almeida also serves the clinic, bringing expertise from his postgraduate studies at the same institute. Both doctors hold memberships in professional surgical societies in Brazil.
Procedure and Recovery
The treatment usually involves a topical anesthesia to make the patient comfortable. Because the laser is fractional, it is less aggressive than traditional resurfacing. This helps the skin recover quickly. For those seeking a total transformation, the laser is often paired with a facelift or eyelid surgery. Combining these allows for deeper treatment while the patient is already under anesthesia. This avoids the need for separate recovery periods.

Cristiano Campos plastic surgery Ipanema: more details about the clinic
Cristiano Campos plastic surgery Ipanema is a private practice in Brazil. The clinic offers surgical and non-surgical care in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. Patients can book consultations in Rio de Janeiro's Ipanema district or São Paulo's Itaim Bibi neighborhood. All surgeries take place in hospital settings for safety and comfort.
Accreditations and Professional Credentials
The clinic follows strict safety protocols under ANVISA and CFM regulations. Both lead specialists are members of the Sociedade Brasileira de Cirurgia Plástica (SBCP). Dr. Cristiano Campos is also a full member of AEXPI.
Facial and Body Plastic Surgery
The surgical department handles aesthetic and reconstructive procedures for the face and body. Surgeons use modern techniques for both functional and cosmetic concerns. Rhinoplasty, for example, can include septal deviation correction. This improves breathing while refining facial harmony. Available procedures include:
- Facelift and eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty)
- Nose, ear, and chin surgery (mentoplasty)
- Liposuction and tummy tuck (abdominoplasty)
- Arm and thigh lifts
- Correction of scars and keloids
A multidisciplinary team manages post-operative care. Patients receive lymphatic drainage and specialized scar treatments to support healing. For arm lifts, the hospital stay is typically one day. Most patients return to daily activities in about 10 days. Physical exercise resumes after one month.
Aesthetic Medicine and Skin Technologies
Non-surgical technologies complement surgical results or work as stand-alone treatments. Ulthera uses micro-focused ultrasound to stimulate collagen in deep skin layers. There's no surface damage, so it suits patients not ready for surgical lifting. Other technology-based options include:
- CoolSculpting for non-surgical fat reduction through controlled cooling
- Velashape III for body contouring and skin texture improvement
- Fractional CO2 laser for skin resurfacing and rejuvenation around the eyes
- Microneedling and intense pulsed light (IPL) therapies
Injectable treatments use stabilized hyaluronic acid formulations. Skinbooster sessions provide deep hydration to improve skin elasticity without adding volume. This treatment typically involves three sessions at monthly intervals. The clinic also offers bio-stimulators to improve skin thickness and firmness over time.
Expert Medical Team
Dr. Cristiano Campos and Dr. Carlos Fernando Gomes de Almeida lead the practice. Dr. Gomes de Almeida brings over 20 years of surgical experience. Both completed postgraduate training in plastic surgery at the Instituto Ivo Pitanguy. They also hold postgraduate degrees in Laser and Cosmetology from Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein.
Services for International Patients
The clinic offers services in Portuguese, English, and Spanish. Digital planning helps patients discuss treatment goals before arrival. However, an in-person examination is always required to finalize expectations. The team coordinates multidisciplinary follow-up so international patients have monitored recovery while in Brazil.
