Dr. Matheus Rios is a private otorhinolaryngology clinic established in 2024. Located in Porto Alegre, the facility operates as a single-doctor practice. The clinic specializes in nasal surgery, combining aesthetic improvements with functional breathing corrections in one plan.
Specialization in Rhinoplasty and Functional Nasal Surgery
Dr. Matheus Rios focuses on rhinoplasty, including both primary and complex secondary procedures. The team evaluates external nasal shape alongside internal structures like the septum and turbinates. This ensures changes to the nose don't compromise respiratory health.
The clinic treats several conditions affecting nasal airflow and appearance:
- Deviated septum (crooked internal wall of the nose)
- Enlarged turbinates (swollen tissues inside the nasal passages)
- Nasal congestion and breathing obstruction
- Complex secondary cases requiring costal cartilage grafts
Surgeries are performed under general anesthesia. Primary rhinoplasty typically lasts 3–4 hours, while secondary cases require 5–6 hours. Most patients recover within 7–10 days. Those in non-physical roles can return to work within one week.

Advanced Diagnostic and Treatment Technology
The clinic uses Crisalix 3D technology during initial consultations. This system creates a 3D facial model to simulate surgical results. Patients can visualize proposed changes and align their expectations before the procedure.
For surgical precision, Dr. Rios uses ultrasonic rhinoplasty. This technique applies ultrasound waves to model the nasal bones. Because it doesn't damage soft tissues, it may reduce swelling and bruising during recovery. Nasal endoscopy supports diagnostics by examining the internal anatomy thoroughly.
Services for International and Out-of-Town Patients
The clinic offers several digital services for patients outside Porto Alegre. Online video consultations allow for initial assessments. The 3D simulation is set up before the patient arrives for surgery.
Staff members assist patients in multiple languages:
- Portuguese
- English
- Spanish
Postoperative follow-up is included in the surgical package. Patients with Unimed insurance may use coverage for functional components, such as correcting a deviated septum. This can lower the total cost of the combined procedure.
