Dr. Michel Gallego: more details about the clinic

Colombia, Medellín

Dr. Michel Gallego is a private single-doctor plastic surgery practice founded in 2024. The clinic is located in Medellín, Colombia, and operates within the Quirófanos El Tesoro surgical center. Dr. Michel Gallego specializes in aesthetic body contouring and breast surgery for both local and international patients.

Accreditations and Professional Memberships

Dr. Michel Gallego is an active member of the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS). He also holds membership in the Sociedad Colombiana de Cirugía Plástica y Reconstructiva. These affiliations reflect adherence to established safety and quality protocols in cosmetic procedures.

Body Contouring and Advanced Liposuction

The practice focuses on high-definition body sculpting using several specialized techniques. LIPOÉLITE 360 targets localized fat in the abdomen, waist, and back to create a natural contour. This is often combined with abdominal marking to highlight underlying muscle definition.

The clinic provides several specialized procedures for the waist and gluteal region:

  • RibXcar – A costal remodeling technique that refines the waistline by reshaping lower ribs without large incisions.
  • Retraction – Intraoperative radiofrequency to treat skin laxity and tighten tissue during liposuction.
  • Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) – Gluteal fat transfer using the patient's own fat to add volume and improve proportion without implants.
  • Lipoabdominoplasty – A tummy tuck combined with liposuction. The scar sits low enough to stay hidden by swimwear.

Most liposculpture and gluteal fat transfer procedures are outpatient. These surgeries typically last about 4 hours. Ultrasound-assisted technology improves fat removal precision and supports smoother recovery.

Breast Enhancement Procedures

Breast surgery plans are tailored to balance with the patient's overall body proportions. The clinic performs breast augmentation with implants to increase volume and improve shape. For patients needing a lift, mastopexy options include the T-inverted technique with implants to address significant sagging.

Specialized Medical Technology

The clinic uses specific technology platforms to enhance surgical precision and skin tightening. Intraoperative radiofrequency heats internal tissue to stimulate skin contraction. Piezotomo, an ultrasonic instrument, reshapes bone during RibXcar costal remodeling with minimal impact on surrounding soft tissue. Ultrasound devices emulsify fat before removal during liposuction.

Services for International Patients

The clinic provides structured postoperative planning for patients traveling from outside Medellín. International patients are advised to stay in the city for a specific period. This allows the surgeon to monitor early healing and manage safety before the patient returns home.

Recovery support includes a complete care regimen:

  • Individualized postoperative management plans
  • Guidance on proper use of compression garments (fajas)
  • Professional lymphatic drainage and massages
  • Radiofrequency and ultrasound therapies to control inflammation

Virtual assessments help patients begin treatment planning before traveling. After returning home, the clinic continues to provide medical checkups and guidance to monitor long-term results.

Excellent service all around. The staff is incredibly helpful and attentive. Dr. Gallego is an outstanding surgeon who made me feel comfortable and welcomed from start to finish. He provided excellent professional advice, and I’m thrilled with my results so far. I had virtually no pain after surgery and felt truly cared for by everyone on his team. I would highly recommend Dr. Gallego to anyone considering breast augmentation surgery. Thank you so much, team! Xoxo 💕

I had a liposculpture with glute transfer done 1 month ago, and I feel very happy with the results. I want to recommend 100% to Dr. Michel and his entire team— it was the best decision I could have made.
