Breast lift in Dr. Thiago Costa – plastic surgery
About the clinic
Breast lift surgery, also known as mastopexia, is available at the Dr. Thiago Costa clinic in Porto Alegre, Brazil. This procedure corrects breast sagging and repositions the areolas for a symmetrical look. Dr. Thiago Costa leads the practice with refined techniques gained through advanced training in breast surgery and specialized recovery models.
Personalized Breast Lift Options
Patients can choose between two main surgical approaches based on their aesthetic goals. The clinic offers mastopexia without a prosthesis for those who want to lift the breasts and remove excess skin without changing the size. For patients who want to restore lost volume, Dr. Thiago Costa performs mastopexia with a silicone implant. This combined method lifts the tissue while adding fullness for a more youthful contour.
Safety and Preparation
A successful surgery starts with a thorough medical evaluation. Patients undergo several tests before the procedure to make sure they are healthy for surgery. These requirements typically include:
- Clinical evaluation and consultation with the surgeon
- Breast ultrasound and mammography for tissue health
- ECG to check heart function
- CBC and other blood tests

Plastic Surgery Specialties and Methods
The clinic offers aesthetic and reconstructive procedures. Each surgery includes a pre-operative evaluation and detailed treatment plan. All procedures take place in a hospital setting for full medical support.
Breast Surgery and Augmentation
The practice uses the Fast Track Recovery approach for breast augmentation. This helps patients return to daily activities faster. Surgeons make a small 3–4 cm incision in the breast fold. They use the Keller funnel to insert implants, which limits contact with the external environment. This technique often combines with the R24H (Recovery 24 Hours) protocol for quicker rehabilitation.
Body Contouring and Liposuction
The surgical team performs several body reshaping procedures:
- Lipo HD and Lipo MD – high and medium definition liposuction to define muscles
- Lipoabdominoplasty – combines excess skin removal with waist reshaping
- 360 Liposuction – treats the entire circumference of the torso
- Gluteoplasty – includes silicone implants or fat transfer (Lipoenxertia)
For abdominoplasty, patients should be near their ideal weight. This leads to better results and safer recovery.
Facial and Reconstructive Procedures
Specialists offer Deep Plane and Endoscopic facelifts. These methods target deeper tissue layers for a more natural look. The clinic also treats gynecomastia (male breast reduction). This surgery typically takes 1–2 hours with a 12–24 hour hospital stay.
Care Standards and Technology
The clinic uses the TC Private support model. This system provides close monitoring from first consultation through final discharge. Patients receive a post-operative kit with two surgical compression garments and recovery essentials.
Before surgery, the medical team runs diagnostic screening:
- Complete blood count (CBC)
- Breast ultrasound and mammography
- Electrocardiogram (ECG) to check heart health
Specialists also review all medications before the operation. This helps adjust prescriptions to reduce surgical risks.
Services for International Patients
The clinic offers structured guidance for patients traveling from abroad. This includes planning pre-operative exams and scheduling follow-ups. Staff members assist in several languages:
