He belongs to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) as well.

Specialties and Surgical Procedures
The clinic offers several types of aesthetic and functional surgery:
- Breast Surgery: Procedures include augmentation, reduction, and mastopexy (breast lift). The clinic specializes in periareolar mastopexy, which leaves scars only around the areola.
- Body Contouring: Options include abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), liposculpture, and gluteoplasty. In select cases, surgeons use a drainless technique, so patients don't need external drainage bags.
- Facial Surgery: The practice performs rhinoplasty, facelifts, and forehead lifts. Each rhinoplasty plan considers both breathing function and ethnic facial features.
- Maxillofacial Surgery: This specialty corrects bone defects of the face and jaw. Common cases include a short chin (hipomentonismo) and a prominent chin (hipermentonismo).
- Mommy Makeover: This program combines several procedures to restore the body after pregnancy. It often pairs a tummy tuck and breast restoration in one surgical plan.
Abdominoplasty at the clinic can repair abdominal wall defects too. During the same operation, surgeons correct rectus diastasis (separated stomach muscles) and small hernias.
Technology and Equipment
The practice uses J-Plasma (Renuvion) technology for skin tightening. This system sends a plasma beam made from medical-grade helium to contract tissue under the skin. Surgeons often pair it with liposuction. This tightens loose skin without removing it surgically. According to the clinic, the technology can tighten tissue significantly during body sculpting.
Safety and Patient Care
Patients are monitored continuously before, during, and after surgery. An anesthesiologist evaluates each patient before the operation. This specialist stays involved through the procedure and recovery. Dr. Villalobos personally attends all post-surgical checkups to monitor healing. Every surgical patient receives an "Integral Plan" for continuity of care.
Standard recovery support includes several medical and logistics services:
- Pre-anesthetic assessment and laboratory exams
- Medical insurance for the surgical period
- Post-surgical garments and at-home nursing care
- Lymphatic drainage sessions to reduce swelling
For patients who prefer to avoid surgery, specialists offer non-surgical slimming options. These include enzyme injections to reduce a double chin and facial fillers to smooth wrinkles.
