Gynecomastia Vaser Liposuction in Dr. George Soares (clinic do Dr. George Soares)
About the clinic
Gynecomastia Vaser Liposuction at the clinic of Dr. George Soares in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, corrects enlarged male breast tissue using advanced surgical techniques. Dr. Soares is a Titular Member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery and a former chief of the surgical center at the Ivo Pitanguy Clinic. This procedure offers a personalized way to reduce breast size based on whether a patient has excess fat, glandular tissue, or both.
Surgical Methods and Customization
The surgery lasts between 1 to 3 hours depending on the patient's needs. Dr. Soares chooses the method based on the tissue type. If fat is the main issue, he uses Vaser liposuction to break down fat cells. If glandular tissue is the problem, he performs a resection to remove the firm tissue. Often, he combines both methods to achieve a flat chest contour.
Anesthesia and Hospitalization
Patients can undergo the surgery under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia. Most procedures take place in a day clinic setting. Some patients may stay in the hospital for 24 hours for observation. The clinical team provides specific instructions for the first few days of recovery to help manage comfort.
Recovery and Post-Operative Care
Recovery typically lasts between 3 to 6 weeks. Patients must follow specific rules to heal correctly:
- Wear a thoracic compression band or elastic shirt continuously for 1 month.
- Start lymphatic drainage massages after the 7th day to reduce swelling.
- Avoid driving, household chores, and sun exposure for 1 to 2 months.
- Wait at least 1 month before resuming physical exercise.
Minimal Scarring and Results
Dr. Soares focuses on keeping scars as small as possible. Liposuction scars are usually less than 0.5 cm and hidden near the armpits. If glandular removal is needed, the doctor makes a small semicircle incision on the lower half of the areola. In cases with significant loose skin, more visible incisions might be necessary to remove the excess tissue.
If you are considering surgery to flatten the chest area, you can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss your options.

How are we doing?
Dr. George Soares (clinic do Dr. George Soares): more details about the clinic
Dr. George Soares is a private plastic surgery practice in the Barra da Tijuca district of Rio de Janeiro. The clinic covers a wide range of aesthetic and reconstructive procedures for the face, body, and breasts. Dr. George Soares personally coordinates all treatment planning to match each patient's goals.
Professional Recognition and Expertise
The practice is led by Dr. George Soares, who graduated in medicine in 1983. He completed two residencies in general surgery and plastic surgery at Hospital do Andaraí. He then served as senior assistant surgeon and chief of a surgical center at the Ivo Pitanguy Clinic for over a decade. Dr. Soares is a Membro-Titular of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery.
Facial Rejuvenation and Rhinoplasty
The clinic offers several facial lifting techniques to address aging and tissue laxity. These include frontal, facial, and neck lifts. Surgeons also perform dermoabrasion – a surgical scraping method using high-rotation diamond burs. This smooths wrinkles or acne scars. The procedure typically lasts 1 to 2 hours under local or general anesthesia.
Rhinoplasty services focus on both aesthetic reshaping and functional improvements. Dr. Soares performs rhinoseptoplasty to correct breathing issues from a deviated septum. Each nasal surgery is tailored to the patient's anatomy and skin type. The clinic also treats congenital ear deformities, such as microtia, through specialized otoplasty techniques.
Breast and Body Contouring
Breast procedures cover reconstructive and aesthetic needs. The clinic offers mastopexy, which removes excess skin to lift the breasts with or without implants. Other breast services include:
- Breast reduction (mastoplastia redutora)
- Breast augmentation with prostheses
- Gynecomastia surgery for male breast reduction
- Nipple correction for inverted mamilla or size reduction
- Capsulectomy to manage post-prosthesis contracture
Body contouring options include classic, inverted, and mini abdominoplasty. These procedures address excess abdominal skin and fat. Recovery takes 30 to 40 days. The surgeon gives specific instructions, such as sleeping in the Fowler position to protect the surgical area. Liposuction and fat grafting are also available to refine body shape further.
Reconstructive and Intimate Surgery
The clinic has a strong focus on reparative surgery for scars and tumor-related tissue loss. Dr. Soares uses tissue flaps and grafting to restore anatomy and function. Reconstructive services include expanders for burn sequelae and DIEP flap reconstruction. The practice also offers female intimate surgeries, including labiaplasty to reduce the labia minora.
Reconstructive planning is highly individualized. The surgeon gives detailed guidance on risk factors that affect healing, such as smoking and alcohol. This helps minimize complications like seromas or infection. Long-term follow-up monitors results and manages any complex implant issues.
Services for International Patients
Dr. George Soares treats international patients seeking surgery in Brazil. The clinic offers coordination services to help manage treatment from abroad. Staff communicate in several languages:
- Portuguese
- English
- Spanish
Each patient receives a personalized consultation to discuss surgical goals and expected timelines. The clinic provides clear communication about anesthesia options and perioperative care. Follow-up visits ensure recovery progresses as planned after the procedure.
