Lipofilling (Fat Grafting) in Fernando Bianco – plastic surgeon
About the clinic
Lipofilling, also known as fat grafting, at the clinic of Dr. Fernando Bianco in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, uses a patient's own tissue to enhance body contours. This natural method avoids synthetic fillers by relocating fat from areas like the abdomen or thighs to the breasts or buttocks. Dr. Fernando Bianco is an international speaker and a Titular Member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP).
Advanced Fat Grafting Techniques
The procedure follows a specific autologous fat transfer protocol. First, the surgeon collects fat through liposuction from a donor site, usually the abdomen or thighs. The clinic then processes and prepares the lipoaspirated fat for injection into the target area. This technique works well for several aesthetic and reconstructive needs:
- Breast augmentation using hybrid mammoplasty with an implant
- Buttock augmentation via gluteal fat grafting
- Correction of mild asymmetries
- Treatment for tuberous breasts
- Correction of chest wall issues like pectus carinatum or excavatum
Long-Lasting Results and Recovery
One of the main benefits of this method is the high fat survival rate. About 70% of the grafted fat can become a permanent part of the new area. This leads to long-lasting contour improvements that look and feel natural. The procedure is minimally invasive compared to major surgeries. Most patients return to light activities within 24 hours, though full recovery time depends on the individual case.

Fernando Bianco – plastic surgeon: more details about the clinic
Fernando Bianco – plastic surgeon is a private practice established in 2024 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The clinic operates across two locations in Barra da Tijuca and Nova Iguaçu. It specializes in aesthetic breast surgery and high-definition body contouring.
Accreditations and Professional Standings
The clinic holds several international and national certifications:
- TEMOS international accreditation
- Sociedade Brasileira de Cirurgia Plástica (SBCP)
- International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS)
- American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS)
Lead surgeon Dr. Fernando Bianco is a Membro Titular of the SBCP – the highest membership category within the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery. He also presents surgical techniques at international events like the Global Plastic Surgery Congress in Buenos Aires.
Specialized Breast and Body Procedures
The clinic is a primary center for the R24R Rapid Recovery protocol for breast augmentation. This approach allows some patients to return to light activities and driving within 24 hours. Precise tissue handling minimizes immediate postoperative pain and swelling.
For patients needing a breast lift, surgeons perform mastopexy using internal muscular sling support. They often use absorbable mesh for long-term structural reinforcement. This helps maintain the lifted shape for years after the procedure.
Body sculpting involves high-definition techniques to enhance muscle visibility. The surgical team performs several specialized contouring procedures:
- Lipo HD (High Definition) to sculpt abdominal and waist contours
- Abdominoplasty using surgical glue for smooth incision closure
- Gynecomastia (male breast reduction) for glandular or fatty excess
- Arm liposuction to remove localized fat and define the upper body
Gynecomastia correction uses small incisions between 1 and 4 cm. These are placed in hidden areas like the armpit or nipple edge. Most patients see 80% of their final body shape within 2 months.
Advanced Surgical Technologies
The clinic uses energy-based devices to treat skin laxity and improve surgical results. These technologies tighten tissue without large external incisions.
- Vaser Lipo: Uses ultrasound energy to break down fat cells while sparing connective tissue.
- BodyTite: An FDA-approved radiofrequency system that monitors tissue temperature for safe skin tightening.
- Renuvion: Delivers helium plasma energy to contract the skin after fat removal.
- Morpheus 8: Uses bipolar radiofrequency and microneedling to remodel the skin and fatty layers.
These platforms are often combined with liposuction. This helps the skin adhere smoothly to new muscle contours. Surgeons select specific technologies based on the patient's skin thickness and elasticity.
Services for International Patients
The clinic manages a personalized workflow for patients traveling from outside Brazil. The journey begins with a detailed preoperative evaluation. This includes metabolic testing and body composition analysis.
A multidisciplinary team provides nutritional guidance before and after the procedure. For those undergoing the R24R breast protocol, the clinic provides specific rehabilitation exercises. Surgeons also offer detailed scar-care planning, including guidance on long-term maturation – typically 12 to 18 months.
