About the clinic

Advanced Surgical Techniques
Dr. André Maschio specializes in facial rejuvenation, breast surgery, and body contouring. He uses the Deep Plane Facelift method to create results that look natural and last a long time. This technique addresses deeper tissue layers rather than just pulling the skin. For body procedures, the clinic uses specific tools to improve outcomes:
- Vaser uses ultrasound waves to break up fat for smoother liposuction.
- Renuvion applies cold plasma to tighten the skin from the inside.
- Ignite uses radiofrequency energy to heat and firm the tissues.
Patient Safety Protocols
The clinic follows strict rules to protect patients during every procedure. Surgeons limit combined operations to a maximum of 6 hours to reduce physical stress. Every patient undergoes a full health check before surgery. These tests include a hemogram to check blood levels, renal function tests for the kidneys, and an ECG for the heart. Patients undergoing breast surgery also receive a mammography scan. These steps help the medical team plan a safe treatment path.
Expertise and Recognition
Dr. André Maschio is a board-certified plastic surgeon and a member of the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS). He also holds membership in the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP). These credentials show that the clinic meets global standards for safety and surgical skill. For procedures like otoplasty (ear surgery), patients typically stay in the hospital for 12 to 24 hours for observation.

Dr. André Maschio: more details about the clinic
Dr. André Maschio is a private plastic surgery practice in Curitiba, Brazil. The clinic focuses on aesthetic procedures for the face, body, and intimate areas. Dr. André Maschio, the founder and primary surgeon, coordinates care across locations in Curitiba and Fazenda Rio Grande.
Accreditations and Training Standards
The clinic operates under strict professional standards verified by national and international organizations. Dr. André Maschio is a board-certified specialist and an active member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP). He also holds accreditation from the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS).
Before beginning his practice, Dr. Maschio completed over 17,000 hours of specialized training. This includes three years of general surgery residency followed by three years in plastic surgery. He earned his medical degree from the Pontifical Catholic University of Paraná (PUC/PR). He then completed his general surgery residency at Santa Casa de Misericórdia de Curitiba.
Facial Rejuvenation and Ear Correction
Dr. Maschio specializes in Deep Plane Facelift techniques to achieve natural-looking results. He teaches this method, leading advanced training courses in Portugal and Brazil. The approach repositions deep facial tissues rather than just stretching the skin surface.
For patients seeking less invasive facial work, the clinic offers several options:
- Endoscopic lifting – uses a micro-camera through small scalp incisions
- Blepharoplasty – surgical correction of the eyelids
- Endoscopic brow lift – lifts the brow and treats forehead wrinkles
- Otoplasty – corrects prominent ears or asymmetries
Ear correction surgery is available for children starting at age six, when ear structure is fully developed. Surgeons place incisions behind the ear to keep scars hidden. The procedure typically takes one hour and requires 12 to 24 hours of hospitalization.
Body Contouring and Breast Surgery
The clinic offers high-definition body sculpting using energy-assisted technologies. Dr. Maschio performs High-definition liposuction (Lipo HD) to remove localized fat and define muscle contours. He often combines this with skin tightening methods to address mild-to-moderate laxity.
Breast surgeries are customized based on the patient's anatomy and volume goals:
- Breast augmentation – using round, anatomical, or conical silicone implants
- Mastopexy – breast lift performed with or without implants
- Reduction mammoplasty – breast reduction using L-shaped or anchor incisions
- Gynecomastia correction – surgical treatment for male breast enlargement
Safety protocols limit combined surgeries to six hours maximum. If a complex plan exceeds this time, the doctor splits treatment into two sessions. This reduces surgical risks and supports better recovery.
Advanced Technologies and Equipment
The clinic uses specific platforms for fat removal and tissue tightening. These tools allow more precise results than traditional methods. Key technologies include:
- Renuvion – uses cold plasma to tighten skin via micro-incisions
- Vaser – ultrasound-assisted technology that liquefies fat before suction
- Ignite – radiofrequency-based tissue heating system
- Vibroliposuction – uses vibrating cannulas for gentler fat removal
Pre-operative diagnostics are done on-site or through partner labs. Standard exams include hemograms, renal function tests, and electrocardiograms. Breast surgeries require recent mammography and ultrasound scans.
Services for International Patients
International patients receive support to coordinate treatment around their travel schedules. The clinic offers consultations in Portuguese, English, and Spanish. Dr. Maschio emphasizes a safety-first approach, starting with a detailed assessment of each patient's health history. Recovery guides are provided for every surgical case – for example, the required 45-day use of compression garments after abdominoplasty.
