Dr. Jean Paul Giudicelli Saba runs a private plastic surgery practice in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Established in 2018, the clinic treats international patients – primarily from the USA and Canada. It specializes in aesthetic body and breast procedures. All surgeries take place at Salvador B. Gautier Hospital, which provides full surgical support.
Accreditations and Surgical Standards
Dr. Giudicelli is a board-certified plastic surgeon with memberships in several recognized medical organizations:
- American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS)
- Dominican Society of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery (SODOCIPRE)
- Ibero-Latin American Federation of Plastic Surgery (FILACP)
Surgeries are performed in accredited facilities with specialist anesthesiologists. A dedicated professional monitors vital signs throughout each procedure.
Plastic Surgery Specialties
The practice focuses on body contouring and breast surgery. Multiple procedures are often combined into a single operation – commonly called a Mommy Makeover. This lets patients address several concerns during one recovery period.
Body Contouring and Reshaping
Dr. Giudicelli performs several types of abdominoplasty, including the Dominican tummy tuck. This method places incisions low enough to hide beneath a bikini line. The surgeon also offers the Fleur De Lis tummy tuck for significant skin removal and the Six Pack male tummy tuck for muscular definition.
For the Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), the clinic reports that 60–80% of transferred fat typically survives permanently. The recovery protocol protects newly transferred fat as it establishes blood supply. This includes specialized seating precautions and compression garments.
Breast Surgery
Breast procedures are tailored to each patient's anatomy and goals. The clinic offers several options:
- Breast augmentation with silicone gel implants
- Fat transfer for breast volume
- Breast lift (mastopexy)
- Breast reduction
Patients receive an official implant card after surgery. This document records the brand, model, and serial number for long-term tracking.
Male Plastic Surgery
The clinic treats gynecomastia (enlarged male breast tissue). Dr. Giudicelli distinguishes between true gynecomastia involving glandular tissue and pseudogynecomastia caused by fat. Fatty tissue can often be corrected with liposuction. True glandular tissue requires surgical excision through discreet incisions at the areola border.
Advanced Technologies
The practice uses VASER liposuction for precise body sculpting. This technology applies ultrasound energy to break down fat cells before removal. It often results in better skin retraction and less tissue trauma than traditional liposuction.
Services for International Patients
The clinic's care pathway is designed for visitors from North America. A free virtual consultation establishes the surgical plan before travel. The practice maintains a strict schedule for monitoring:
- Patients arrive 2–3 days before surgery for pre-operative testing
- A minimum 13-day stay after surgery is required for in-person monitoring
- Dr. Giudicelli personally reviews recovery before clearing patients for travel
- Remote support continues via WhatsApp after patients return home
Bilingual coordination is available for English-speaking patients. The team also provides travel safety guidance, including instructions for compression use and movement during the return flight.
