Dr. Nelson Chaves runs a private plastic surgery practice in Bogotá, Colombia. The practice operates from a single facility in the Centro Médico Dalí. It focuses entirely on surgical and non-surgical aesthetic transformations. Dr. Chaves personalizes each surgical plan based on individual anatomy and aesthetic goals.
The practice follows strict medical standards through official Colombian health registrations. Dr. Chaves is a certified member of the Sociedad Colombiana de Cirugía Plástica, Estética y Reconstructiva (SCCP). His credentials are verified through ReTHUS, the National Single Registry of Human Talent in Health.
Dr. Chaves graduated from the National University of Colombia in 1996. He completed his specialization at the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana and holds membership in the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS). He regularly attends national and international medical congresses to stay current with global techniques.
The clinic offers surgical interventions for the face and body. For rhinoplasty, the approach depends on complexity. Internal incisions work for simple corrections, while open rhinoplasty suits complex cases. Facial surgery options also include eyebrow lifting and implants for the chin, cheeks, and mandibular angle.
Body contouring procedures at the practice include:
For breast procedures, the clinic provides augmentation with silicone implants, breast lifts, and reduction. Dr. Chaves also treats gynecomastia (male breast enlargement) for grades 1 through 3. This procedure restores a masculine chest contour through surgical reduction.
The practice offers non-surgical rejuvenation for patients who want to address volume loss or aging without extensive downtime. These treatments target facial harmony using injectables and advanced laser technologies. They work well for mild skin laxity or as an alternative to surgery.
Aesthetic medicine services include:
The surgical team uses Z-Plastia and W-plastia for scar correction. These techniques change the direction of scars so they blend with natural skin texture. Over time, this makes scars significantly less visible and smoother.
Each patient receives a care plan known as Tratamiento Integral. This includes advice from nutrition professionals who create exercise and eating plans. These steps help patients maintain long-term results after body contouring or weight loss procedures.
International patients benefit from a dedicated Health Tourism workflow:
Patients should arrive in Bogotá at least 72 hours before surgery. This gives the body time to adapt to local conditions and ensures all preoperative tests are complete. After surgery, the clinic provides structured guidance, including early mobilization protocols for a safe recovery.
