Elisabete Weber is a private plastic surgery practice in Porto Alegre, Brazil. This single-doctor clinic focuses on breast surgery, full body reshaping, and specialized burn care. The practice emphasizes individualized treatment plans for every patient.
Accreditations and Clinical Expertise
The clinic holds TEMOS accreditation, showing a commitment to quality standards in healthcare. Lead specialist Dr. Elisabete Weber brings over 15 years of surgical experience to her practice. She graduated from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS) in 2001. After medical school, she completed five years of specialization in general and plastic surgery at Hospital Ernesto Dornelles.
Dr. Weber also spent 14 years at Hospital de Pronto Socorro de Porto Alegre, a trauma reference center for accidents and burns. There, she specialized in burn treatment and taught surgical residents. This background in trauma care shapes her approach to reconstructive and aesthetic procedures.
Specialized Breast and Body Procedures
The clinic performs a wide range of breast surgeries using updated techniques. These procedures address both aesthetic goals and functional concerns. Options include:
- Silicone breast implant placement
- Mastopexy (breast lift) to restore shape
- Breast reduction for physical comfort
- Correction of breast asymmetries
- Hybrid surgeries combining implants with fat grafting
- Explant of silicone prostheses
For body contouring, the clinic offers Mommy Makeover programs. These help restore the body after pregnancy and weight loss. Different methods are combined to achieve a balanced result:
- Liposuction for localized fat removal
- Abdominoplasty to tighten abdominal muscles
- Gluteal fat grafting for volume restoration
- Integrated breast surgeries
Safety comes first when combining multiple procedures. The clinic only approves combined surgeries if total surgical time stays under 5 hours. Specialists review every plan after the initial consultation to confirm it meets this limit.
Burn Care and Aesthetic Medicine
The clinic provides specialized care for burn patients. Services cover both urgent treatment and management of long-term scars. Dr. Weber draws on her trauma center experience to guide patients on medications and advanced dressings. The goal is to restore function and improve the appearance of injured tissue.
Non-surgical options are available for facial rejuvenation. These in-office treatments include Botox and dermal fillers. Collagen stimulation treatments improve skin texture as well. Patients can have these procedures alone or alongside surgical treatment plans.
Safety Protocols and Patient Recovery
All surgical procedures take place in a hospital setting for maximum safety. The clinic works with anesthetists who specialize in plastic surgery. To prevent complications, the team uses dedicated equipment for thrombosis prevention during every operation. Preoperative evaluations confirm each patient is fit for surgery.
Recovery follows a gradual return to daily activities. Patients typically need rest and support from a companion during the first few days. Most return to their regular routines after about 15 days. Post-operative guidance covers pain relief and wound care.
Services for International Patients
The clinic has an established care pathway for patients traveling from abroad. English-language support is available during consultations and the planning phase. Each patient receives a personalized treatment plan that accounts for their travel schedule. The team provides guidance on preoperative steps before the patient arrives in Brazil.
