The clinic does not rely on a single method for scar improvement. Instead, Dr. Dolavale combines several tools to treat different skin layers. The plan may include the following techniques:
Laser scar removal is an outpatient procedure, so patients do not need to stay overnight. After a session, the skin usually shows temporary redness and swelling. Most patients need several sessions spaced weeks or months apart to see the best results. The skin improves gradually as new collagen forms under the surface.
Following the doctor's instructions is vital for a successful outcome. Patients must protect the treated area from the sun for at least six months. Dr. Dolavale often recommends using silicone gel and avoiding physical tension on the scar. If active acne is present, it must be controlled before starting the laser sessions. This careful preparation and post-op care help the skin heal properly without new marks.

Dr. Isabelle Dolavale has performed over 2,000 reparative surgeries throughout her career. She has dedicated more than 15 years to reconstructive plastic surgery. The clinic is led by a Titular Member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP).

The clinic focuses on reparative plastic surgery for patients after trauma, illness, or major weight loss. Care priorities include restoring movement and quality of life. Specialists address a broad range of reconstructive needs:
For patients with chronic wounds and ulcers, the clinic provides advanced treatment options. This includes diabetic, venous, and arterial ulcers that fail to heal. Surgeons use skin grafts and flaps to close deep lesions and preserve limbs.
The practice offers aesthetic plastic surgery with a focus on natural-looking results. Procedures include abdominoplasty, mastopexy, and thigh lifting. Otoplasty is available for children starting at age 6, as well as adolescents and adults.
For keloids and hypertrophic scars, the clinic uses combined treatment strategies. These methods reduce the risk of scar recurrence while easing symptoms like pain or itching. Patients should provide a full history of the initial injury to help with planning.
Complex wound treatment involves coordination with other medical specialties. The team works with endocrinology and orthopedics to manage diabetic foot complications. Doppler exams often help evaluate blood flow in patients with chronic ulcers.
For pressure ulcers, the clinic performs surgical cleaning and infection control. Deep lesions may require reconstruction with surgical flaps. This approach aims to restore the patient's ability to walk and perform daily activities.

Patients receive detailed guidance for health insurance authorization. The clinic helps prepare necessary documentation, including medical reports, photos, and clinical exams. This highlights functional issues – such as pain or movement limitations – to support coverage requests.
The care pathway includes thorough evaluation and surgical planning before the procedure. Following surgery, the clinic provides individualized follow-up to monitor recovery. Guidance on post-operative rest and activity levels is provided during the initial consultation.
