Diagnostics and surgical planning

Before any procedure, the clinic performs a detailed evaluation of the nasal internal structure. This helps identify the exact location of the septal deviation and any other obstructions. Patients can also start their journey with an online consultation to discuss their medical history and goals.

Nasal endoscopy. This internal exam uses a thin camera to see the airway clearly.
Functional assessment. The surgeon checks how the deviation affects airflow and sinus health.
Surgical mapping. A plan is created to reshape the bone and cartilage precisely.

Ultrasonic rhinoplasty for septal correction

The clinic uses ultrasonic technology for septal and nasal surgery. This method uses high-frequency vibrations to reshape the bone without damaging the surrounding soft tissue or skin. It replaces traditional hammers and chisels, which often leads to less swelling and a faster recovery.

Functional septoplasty. The surgeon straightens the deviated wall between the nostrils to open the airway.
Ultrasonic bone reshaping. This technique allows for high precision when correcting the nasal bridge or base.
Combined approach. The procedure fixes the breathing obstruction while refining the external look of the nose.
Premier hospital dia facility. Surgery takes place in a specialized day-hospital designed for safety and comfort.

Dr. Paulo Henrique Laia: more details about the clinic

Brazil, Belo Horizonte

Dr. Paulo Henrique Laia is a single-specialty plastic surgery practice based in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. The clinic focuses on aesthetic and reconstructive procedures for the face, breasts, and body contour. Operations are performed at Premier Hospital Dia, a facility with defined safety protocols.

Credentials and Training

The practice is led by Dr. Paulo Henrique Laia, a plastic surgeon who completed his residency in 2013. He is a Full Member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP) – the highest membership category in the society.

Dr. Laia trained at the Clinical Hospital of the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG). He later served as a preceptor for the plastic surgery residency there. The clinic holds ISAPS and TEMOS certifications.

Facial and Breast Procedures

The clinic specializes in advanced facial rejuvenation. These techniques target deep tissue layers for natural results without excessive skin tension:

Deep Plane Facelift – repositions deep tissues below the SMAS layer
Deep Neck Lift – treats skin, muscle, and deep fat for neck contouring
Mini Facelift – a less invasive option for patients with mild facial laxity
Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty – nose reshaping that can also correct a deviated septum
Brow Lift – repositions the eyebrows and forehead tissues

For breast surgery, the practice offers several augmentation and reduction methods. Dr. Laia uses Técnica Preservé for breast augmentation. This Motiva-developed approach creates implant space while protecting internal breast anatomy and muscle.

Body Contouring Technologies

Body contouring often combines liposuction with energy-based technologies. These tools treat fat and improve skin firmness. The clinic uses the following platforms:

Vaser – ultrasound technology that emulsifies fat before removal
Argoplasma – argon gas plasma that creates a thermal effect for skin tightening
BodyTite and FaceTite – bipolar radiofrequency for tissue tightening
Morpheus – fractional radiofrequency micro-needling to improve skin texture

These technologies are often part of lipoabdominoplasty procedures. This combined surgery addresses both localized fat and excess skin in a single session.

Diagnostic Capabilities

The clinic provides nasal endoscopy as a primary diagnostic tool. This helps evaluate internal nasal structures before functional or aesthetic nose surgery. These evaluations confirm that surgery won't impair breathing.

Services for International Patients

Online consultations are available as a first step for patients outside Belo Horizonte. This allows preliminary planning before travel. Post-operative care includes ongoing monitoring and recovery guidance throughout healing.

Dr Paulo is wonderful—kind, polite, gentle, and truly professional with excellence. Along with the team, he is always ready to help, answer questions, and provide all the support needed. I’m 20 days post-surgery and I’m already very satisfied with what I’m seeing. I’d like to thank all of you for all the care, from the reception girls, Júlio, Tábata, Hildes, and especially the girls from the hyperbaric unit, in particular Gabriela. I felt confident from the very first appointment. Thank you, Dome, Premier team…

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My experience with Dr. was simply exceptional. From the very first consultation, I was treated with care, respect, and absolute transparency. At no point did I feel pressured to undergo any procedures; instead, I received technical, honest, and individualized guidance, which gave me a great sense of security. The surgical result exceeded my expectations. It turned out extremely natural, harmonious, and respected my features exactly as I was looking for. Beyond technical competence, the attention given in both pre- and post-operative care made all the difference. The team is welcoming, organized, and always available to clarify any questions. It’s rare to find a professional who combines surgical excellence, good aesthetic taste, ethics, and genuine patient care. I highly recommend (without hesitation) anyone looking for a highly qualified plastic surgeon who is committed to natural and safe results. My gratitude to Dr. and the entire team for their professionalism and an impeccable experience.
