Mommy makeover in Dr. Romero Catão (clinic Aviv)
About the clinic
A mommy makeover at Dr. Romero Catão’s clinic in Natal, Brazil, restores body contours after pregnancy through a tailored combination of surgeries. The program stands out for its integrated recovery plan, which begins just 24 hours after the procedure. Dr. Romero Catão is a specialist member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery, maintaining high standards for patient safety and aesthetic results.
Surgery Components and Techniques
This procedure combines several techniques to address changes in the breasts and abdomen. The surgical plan typically includes a breast lift and a tummy tuck. Liposuction is also used to remove stubborn fat deposits from the midsection. For breast enhancement, Dr. Romero Catão uses silicone implants, including gummy bear types, when the patient’s tissue assessment indicates they are necessary. Each surgery is customized to match the patient’s specific goals and physical needs.
Post-Operative Recovery and Care
Recovery is supported by a structured physiotherapy program that starts immediately after surgery. This helps manage swelling and improves comfort during the early healing stages.
- Home Sessions: The first five physiotherapy sessions take place at the patient's home.
- Scar Management: Patients receive specific guidance on how to care for incisions as they mature over several months.
- Continuous Support: The medical team monitors the healing process to help the body adjust to its new contours.

As a single-doctor practice, it offers a dedicated setting for breast and body contouring surgeries.
Credentials and Professional Achievements
Dr. Romero Catão has over 10 years of experience in plastic surgery.

The clinic holds professional licensing through the regional medical councils of Rio Grande do Norte and Paraíba.
Plastic Surgery Specialties
The clinic performs surgical procedures for the breasts and body. Each case begins with a detailed consultation to match patient goals with the right technique. Dr. Catão works across several areas:
- Breast Surgery: Options include mastopexy (breast lift), breast reduction, and augmentation. Silicone implants, including gummy bear types, are used when the patient's anatomy calls for them.
- Body Contouring: Liposuction and abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) refine body shape. Dr. Catão often pairs these with breast surgery for balanced results.
- Mommy Makeover: This combines multiple procedures to restore the body after pregnancy and breastfeeding.
- Reconstructive Surgery: The practice restores function and appearance after trauma or illness.
For breast cases, Dr. Catão notes that not every surgery requires implants. The final technique is chosen only after a thorough tissue assessment.
Postoperative Care and Rehabilitation
Recovery is treated as essential to the surgical result. A specialized physiotherapy team supports patients right after their procedure, helping restore mobility and independence safely.
Postoperative support follows three steps:
- Hospital Care: Physiotherapy starts within 24 hours of surgery. Staff help with bathing, dressing changes, and initial mobility exercises.
- Home Recovery: After discharge, the first five physiotherapy sessions happen at the patient's residence. This keeps care consistent during early healing.
- Clinic Follow-up: Later rehabilitation and monitoring continue at the clinic. The team provides scar maturation guidance, since scars typically mature over several months.
This recovery protocol helps patients return to daily life more comfortably. The team also educates patients on long-term implant monitoring and breast health.
International Patient Services
Dr. Romero Catão and his staff assist international patients in Portuguese, English, and Spanish. This ensures clear communication about surgical techniques and aftercare instructions. The team also helps travelers coordinate their recovery timeline while in Brazil.
