Body Contouring and Gluteoplasty
The practice specializes in body contouring, with a primary focus on gluteoplasty. Surgeons perform both silicone gluteal implants and hybrid gluteoplasty. The hybrid method combines implants with fat grafting for natural-looking results. The clinic uses Silimed implants in various sizes, including 400ml and 450ml oval profiles.
The surgical team follows specific safety protocols for gluteal volume enhancement:
- Intramuscular placement of silicone implants for stability
- Avoidance of injectable fillers like PMMA or hyaluronic acid
- Combination of gluteoplasty with liposuction for body harmony
- Post-operative support including drainage and compression garments
Safety comes first during anesthesia planning. The clinic considers general anesthesia the gold standard for major surgeries. Liposuction for moderate and large areas takes place in a hospital setting. Options include spinal, epidural, or general anesthesia.
Facial Surgery and Breast Procedures
The clinic offers a range of facial procedures, including the Deep Plane Facelift. This technique targets deeper tissue layers for long-lasting rejuvenation. Specialists also perform otoplasty for prominent ears, available for patients as young as 7. Other facial procedures include mentoplasty (chin surgery) and rhinoplasty.
Breast surgery options include augmentation, reduction, and mastopexy (breast lift). The clinic offers different implant types to suit various anatomical needs:
- Textured silicone breast implants
- Polyurethane-coated implants to reduce rotation risk
- Subglandular or submuscular placement options
- Gynecomastia treatment for male breast enlargement
Most breast augmentation patients return to light activities within one week. Full recovery typically takes four to six weeks.
Technological Equipment
The practice uses specialized platforms for skin tightening and fat removal. Surgeons work with Renuvion, which combines helium gas plasma with radiofrequency energy. This system helps firm the skin after fat removal. The clinic also uses VASER ultrasound technology to break down fat cells while sparing surrounding tissues.
