Dr. Guilherme Miranda – Plastic Surgery is a private clinic in Rio de Janeiro's Barra da Tijuca neighborhood. The practice focuses on aesthetic and reconstructive procedures. Led by Dr. Guilherme Miranda, the clinic uses a planning-first approach centered on anatomy and body proportion.
Accreditations and Professional Recognition
The clinic holds accreditation from TEMOS, which evaluates services for international patients. Professional affiliations include the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP) and the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS). The clinic is also recognized by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS).
Dr. Guilherme Miranda has practiced since 1997 and holds a Master's degree in Medicine. He serves as Chief of Plastic Surgery at Galeão Air Force Hospital. He also teaches at the Carlos Chagas Institute and the Federal University of the State of Rio de Janeiro.
Specialized Body Contouring and Liposuction
The clinic offers advanced body sculpting that preserves vascular and lymphatic systems. Specialists treat lipedema using integrated surgical refinement strategies. A proprietary multi-angled cannula with triple angulation improves anatomical access for lower-limb procedures.
Available body contouring options include:
- High-Definition Liposuction (Lipo HD/LAD) for defined muscle appearance.
- Laser Liposculpture for precise tissue refinement.
- Gluteal Fat Grafting, which uses the patient's own fat to increase buttock projection.
- Abdominoplasty with surgical correction of abdominal muscle separation (diastasis).
- Hand Rejuvenation via fat transfer to restore lost volume on the back of the hands.
In liposculpture, surgeons use retrieved fat as a natural filler. About 60% of grafted fat remains permanently after the initial reabsorption period.
Breast and Facial Procedures
Breast surgeries cover augmentation, reduction, and lifting. For mastopexy (breast lift), the clinic uses GalaFLEX – a material that reinforces the breast envelope during tissue remodeling. Surgeons also perform complex breast reconstructions when medically necessary.
Facial rejuvenation includes both surgical and non-surgical methods. The team performs full facelifts, neck lifts, and forehead lifts to address sagging skin. Rhinoplasty options include specialized techniques for male patients. Non-surgical treatments include facial fillers and dermabrasion for skin texture improvement.
Surgical Technology and Training
The practice is an active center for physician education in Brazil. It runs the Lipo Leg Definition program, which provides hands-on training for surgeons. This course uses fresh frozen cadavers in a specialized lab environment. The approach allows surgeons to master techniques before treating patients.
For surgical precision, the clinic uses Laser-Assisted Liposculpture technology. This platform refines specific areas while minimizing trauma to surrounding tissues. Three doctors coordinate on complex aesthetic cases and burn treatments.
Services for International Patients
The clinic treats patients from various regions and offers support in multiple languages. Staff consult in Portuguese, English, and Spanish. Each treatment starts with a personalized plan based on realistic expectations and safety protocols. All procedures take place at the Barra da Tijuca facility in Rio de Janeiro.
