Breast Augmentation with Silicone Implants in Dr. Rafael Pérez Franco

About the clinic

Breast augmentation with silicone implants is offered by Dr. Rafael Pérez Franco’s private practice in Bogotá, Colombia. Plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Pérez Franco has over 20 years of experience and trained at Professor Ivo Pitanguy’s Clinic in Rio de Janeiro.

Implant surgery and assessment

The operation uses silicone implants and usually takes 1 to 2 hours. Anesthesia may be local or general, and surgery is outpatient.

During assessment, Dr. Pérez Franco considers skin quality and amount, breast tissue, and areola size and position. The procedure may suit women over 18 who want larger breasts or have lost volume after breastfeeding.

Dr. Pérez Franco is a member and former board member of the Colombian Society of Plastic Surgery. He also teaches postgraduate plastic surgery at Clínica San Rafael.

Recovery after surgery

Most patients can resume some activities by days 3 to 5. Time away from normal activities is typically 1 to 2 weeks.

Drains are usually removed within 24 to 72 hours. A supportive sports bra is worn around the clock for at least one month, and stitches come out after 14 to 20 days.

Swelling may take about 6 weeks to settle. Scars can fade over 6 to 12 months, though healing varies between patients.

Recovery technologies and consultations

The practice uses HEBE Regenerative Intelligence, a 448 kHz cellular biostimulation method, and Recover LED after surgery to help reduce swelling.

International patients can request a virtual photo consultation and hotel-booking assistance. A pre-consultation phone call with a surgical consultant is also available.

To discuss whether breast augmentation may fit your needs, you can request a consultation through Bookimed.

Dr. Rafael Pérez Franco: more details about the clinic

Colombia, Bogota

Dr. Rafael Pérez Franco is a private plastic surgery practice located in Bogotá, Colombia. Dr. Rafael Pérez Franco leads the clinic. He has over 20 years of experience in aesthetic and reconstructive procedures. He is associated with El Bosque University and San Rafael Clinic.

Accreditations and Professional Recognition

Dr. Rafael Pérez Franco is a member of the Colombian Society of Plastic Surgery. He has received honorable mentions for his contributions to the field. The doctor actively participates in national congresses and the Meet The Masters training series for residents.

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

The practice provides surgical and non-surgical aesthetic treatments. Each plan begins with a detailed assessment of skin quality and tissue volume. This helps match results to the patient's unique body characteristics.

Procedures available at the clinic include:

  • Liposuction for localized fat removal and body contouring
  • Gluteoplasty and glute augmentation using prostheses
  • Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) and panniculectomy
  • Facial rejuvenation, including Deep Plane Facelift and eyelid surgery
  • Corrective ear surgery (otoplasty)
  • Botox injections for expression-related wrinkles

Specialists also treat gynecomastia through male breast reduction or augmentation. Fat transfer is available to shape areas where volume is lacking.

Breast Surgery and Mammology

Dr. Pérez Franco performs several types of breast procedures. Surgery typically lasts between 1 and 4 hours depending on complexity. The practice offers both outpatient and inpatient options based on medical necessity.

Breast surgery options include:

  • Breast augmentation using silicone implants or fat transfer
  • Breast lift (mastopexy) to improve shape and position
  • Reduction mammoplasty to decrease breast volume
  • Breast implant removal (explantation)

During the initial consultation, the doctor analyzes glandular tissue and areola position. Patients receive guidance on medications and habits that affect healing, such as smoking.

Rhinoplasty and Facial Procedures

Nose surgery at the clinic addresses both functional and aesthetic concerns. Dr. Pérez Franco uses various techniques to straighten the nasal bridge or modify angles. When needed, a functional exam checks for proper breathing.

Pre-surgical planning for rhinoplasty involves detailed analysis of the nasal tip and bridge. The doctor completed special rotations at these institutions to refine his techniques:

  • Saint Paul Hospital in Sao Paulo, Brazil
  • Fluminense Clinic of Plastic Surgery
  • Professor Ivo Pitanguy's Clinic in Rio de Janeiro

Treatment Technologies

The clinic uses specialized equipment to improve surgical outcomes and speed recovery. HEBE Regenerative Intelligence applies a 448 kHz cellular biostimulation protocol. This technology oxygenates tissues before surgery and reduces inflammation afterward.

Recover LED is applied after procedures. It helps decrease swelling and increases patient comfort during healing. For polymer extraction, the practice uses cold laser technology.

Services for International Patients

The practice offers a structured process for patients traveling to Bogotá. Virtual consultations using photos allow for remote evaluation before the trip. A surgical consultant provides a pre-consultation phone call to discuss the treatment plan.

Consultants assist with practical arrangements, including hotel bookings and surgery day preparation. Coordination is provided in Spanish.
