Dr. Carlos Velasco Clinic: more details about the clinic
Colombia, Cali
Dr. Carlos Velasco Clinic is a private plastic surgery facility in the Ciudad Jardín district of Cali, Colombia. The clinic focuses on facial rejuvenation and body contouring. All surgeries take place in a single dedicated building.
Key Facts and Professional Recognition
Dr. Carlos Velasco leads the clinic. He has over 25 years of surgical experience, and hundreds of patients have undergone procedures here.
- Affiliated with the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS)
- Medical team with over two decades of practice
- Specializes in care for international medical tourists
Dr. Velasco began his surgical practice around 2001. He focuses on precision and individualized planning for natural-looking results.
Facial and Body Plastic Surgery
The clinic offers diverse options for facial rejuvenation and body reshaping. Surgeons use techniques designed to restore balance to facial and body contours. Each treatment plan matches the patient's specific anatomy.
Facial Procedures
Specialists perform rhytidoplasty (facelift) using a deep plane approach. This method repositions deeper facial structures rather than just pulling the skin. It delivers long-lasting results in the cheeks, jawline, and neck. The clinic also provides several types of nasal surgery:
- Open rhinoplasty for a complete view of the nasal structure
- Closed rhinoplasty techniques
- Tip rhinoplasty for targeted adjustments
- Cartilage reconstruction using rib grafts when necessary
Endoscopic and mini facelifts are available for patients who need less extensive correction.
Body Contouring and Breast Surgery
Body procedures typically take 2–3 hours. Duration depends on the extent of skin removal or whether techniques are combined. The clinic offers the Mommy Makeover, which combines a tummy tuck, breast lift, and liposculpture. Other body contouring options include:
- Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) to remove excess skin and fat
- Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) using fat transfer techniques
- Brachioplasty (arm lift) to reshape the upper arms
- High-definition liposculpture and Vaser liposuction
Breast surgeries include augmentation with implants from internationally recognized manufacturers. Patients may also choose augmentation using fat transfer instead of implants.
Surgical Infrastructure and Safety
Procedures take place in modern, fully equipped operating rooms designed for surgical precision. The clinic follows protocols for continuous post-operative monitoring. A dedicated recovery environment in Cali supports patient privacy and medical safety.
Services for International Patients
The clinic provides bilingual support with English-speaking staff. International visitors can access medical tourism packages to coordinate their care.
International patient services include:
- Virtual consultations for pre-travel planning
- Transportation assistance and airport pickup coordination
- Accommodations in a dedicated Recovery House

I had an amazing experience with Dr. Velasco. After doing extensive research and consulting with several surgeons, I decided to move forward with Dr. Velasco because of his strong emphasis on safety. For me, that was extremely important, especially since this was my first surgery and it was being performed outside of my home country, the United States.
I underwent a breast lift with implants, liposuction, and fat transfer. During my consultation, Dr. Velasco thoroughly explained what to expect before, during, and after surgery. From our first meeting, I sensed his genuineness, professionalism, and passion for his work. After the consultation, I felt confident in my decision to proceed with him as my surgeon.
When I arrived in Colombia, I was naturally a bit nervous. However, meeting with Dr. Velasco the day after my arrival immediately eased my anxiety. He was warm, informative, and attentive. He answered all of my questions and carefully listened to my goals. I specifically requested a more natural and balanced result, and he truly understood my vision.
On the day of surgery, I felt genuinely cared for, which helped me feel at ease. When I woke up, everything had gone smoothly. Although I was still swollen, I took a glance at my new body and was amazed by what I saw. It was beautiful. Dr. Velasco later shared photos with me, and I could immediately tell that he had delivered exactly what I had asked for. What impressed me most was that my results looked natural and aligned with the vision I had discussed with him beforehand.
Throughout my recovery, Dr. Velasco and his staff monitored me closely. His team was incredibly attentive, compassionate, and supportive during my post-operative care. Their professionalism and kindness made the recovery process much more comfortable.
Once I decided to move forward with Dr. Velasco, the entire process became surprisingly easy. His coordinator, Diego, is absolutely amazing and was always available to answer questions and guide me through every step. If you choose to stay at the Recovery House, it makes the experience even more effortless. Transportation, meals, nursing support, post-operative appointments, and daily care were coordinated for me, allowing me to focus solely on my recovery.
As someone traveling from the United States for surgery, I felt safe, informed, and supported throughout the entire process.
I am still healing and have swelling, but I am already very happy with my results and excited to see my final outcome in the coming months. I will be adding before-and-after photos as my recovery progresses.
If I had to make the decision all over again, I would choose Dr. Velasco and his team without hesitation. I am grateful for the care I received and thrilled with my experience so far.

The doctor has many years of experience under his belt. He gives sound and honest advice of what the surgery can accomplish. I had a complication and he did not take any chances about giving me extra care and observation for an extra night in the hospital.

Dr. Velasco is the best. My first surgery with him was 15 years ago and now I came back for the second time with him. I don’t trust anyone else but him. I highly recommend the recovery house if you are having a major surgery the girls here are the best. 10/10.
