Breast augmentation in Dr. Frederico Vasconcelos – plastic surgery and Cosmética
About the clinic
Breast augmentation at the clinic of Dr. Frederico Vasconcelos in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, provides personalized surgical options using cohesive silicone, saline, or polyurethane-coated implants. Dr. Frederico Vasconcelos is a board-certified plastic surgeon with over 15 years of experience and a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). The clinic holds TEMOS International Healthcare Accreditation, meeting high global safety standards for international patients.
Personalized Implant Options
Patients choose from different implant materials and shapes to reach their desired look. Cohesive silicone gel mimics natural breast tissue closely. Polyurethane-coated implants are also available to help lower the risk of capsular contracture. Shapes include round or anatomical teardrop options, with volumes ranging from 135 ml to over 500 ml.
Surgical Methods and Placement
Dr. Frederico Vasconcelos uses specific incision techniques to manage scarring. These include placements under the breast, around the areola, or through the underarm. The implant can be positioned above the chest muscle, below the muscle, or in a dual-plane level. The surgery usually lasts between one and two hours under general anesthesia or sedation.
Safety and Hospital Standards
Procedures take place in accredited facilities like Hospital Mater Dei or Hospital Life Center. Every surgery involves an accredited anesthesiologist to monitor the patient. Before the operation, patients undergo a clinical and cardiac evaluation. A baseline mammography is required, and MRI scans are available for detailed planning. Patients must stop smoking at least six weeks before the procedure to help healing.
Recovery and Aftercare
Most patients go home the same day, though an overnight stay is possible. The recovery process includes:
- Wearing a surgical bra or special bandage for at least one month.
- Attending a first medical review within five to seven days.
- Avoiding raising arms above the shoulders for three to four weeks.
- Resting from strenuous exercise for at least one month.
- Protecting the chest from sun exposure for three months.
