Expertise of Dr. George Soares

The Labiaplasty Procedure
The surgery, also known as nymphoplasty, focuses on the reduction of excess skin on the labia minora. The surgeon uses a precise excision technique followed by suturing to achieve the desired shape. The operation typically lasts between 1 and 2 hours. Patients can choose from several anesthesia options, including local anesthesia with sedation, peridural, spinal, or general anesthesia.
Hospital Stay and Recovery
Most patients stay in the hospital for about 12 to 24 hours after the surgery. A full recovery usually takes 4 to 6 weeks. During the first month, patients must follow specific guidelines to help the healing process:
- Avoid all forms of physical exercise and driving.
- Refrain from sexual intercourse and domestic chores.
- Keep the surgical area clean using antiseptic solutions.
- Avoid direct sun exposure to the treated area.
Patients receive close monitoring for common post-operative signs. The medical team checks for issues like swelling, bruising, or how the sutures are healing. Following these steps helps the body recover and lowers the risk of complications.

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

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.
