Certifications and Professional Standards
The practice is led by Dr. Bruno Gasperin, who holds medical licensing identifiers CRM-RS 38752 and RQE 35.074. He is a member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP). The clinic also holds TEMOS accreditation, reflecting a commitment to international quality standards. To maintain high surgical standards, the team limits procedure volume. This ensures individual attention for each case.
Advanced Breast Augmentation Techniques
The clinic uses specific methods for breast enhancement that prioritize stability and tissue preservation. Specialists offer Preservé, a technique where implants sit above the muscle. This method preserves key breast ligaments to keep the implant stable. For a natural feel, the clinic often uses Ergonomix 2 implants. These are known for high elasticity and minimal tissue reactivity.
For patients who want a fast return to daily life, the clinic offers the R24R (Rapid Recovery) approach. This protocol allows early functional movements the next day. Most patients return to routine physical activity after two weeks. The technique often incorporates the Dual Plane method and an internal bra concept. This provides defined cleavage and long-term support.
Mastopexy and Breast Reduction
The practice provides several lifting options with or without silicone. For a lift without implants, surgeons use a Short Scar technique. This approach reduces visible scarring and often includes Lipoenxertia – fat grafted from the axillary and lateral breast areas to add volume to the cleavage.
Structured lift options are available for patients who prefer implants. Mastogrip (Structured Mastopexy) combines submuscular implant positioning with internal support elements. This provides shelf-like stability for the breast tissue. The clinic also performs breast reduction to relieve physical discomfort. Surgeons remove excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin while repositioning the areola.
- Mastopexy with Short Scar reduced-incision technique
- Structured Mastopexy (Mastogrip) with internal support
- Breast reduction for weight relief
- Breast capsulectomy
- Secondary and revision breast surgeries
Every surgery begins with an individualized evaluation to define the most appropriate anatomical plan.
Recovery and Patient Support
Specialized aftercare is central to the treatment process here. A dedicated physiotherapist monitors progress throughout the post-operative period.
