Facelift in Grupo Bianca Ohana
About the clinic
A facelift at Grupo Bianca Ohana in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, focuses on natural results by repositioning facial muscles and removing excess skin. The procedure is performed by Dr. Bianca Ohana, a plastic surgeon with international training from the National Cancer Institute and the University of Utah. The clinic holds accreditations from SBCP, ISAPS, and TEMOS, which recognize its high medical standards.
Advanced Facelift Techniques
Rhytidoplasty, or facelift surgery, addresses aging signs like sagging jowls and deep nasolabial folds. Dr. Bianca Ohana places incisions in discreet areas, such as behind the ear or along the hairline. This method helps lift the midface and neck while avoiding a tight or artificial look. The clinic often combines the surgery with laser therapy, chemical peels, or injectables to improve skin texture.
Patient Safety and Experience
Surgeries take place at partner hospitals like Rede D'Or and Hospital Samaritano. these facilities provide full ICU support and follow strict safety protocols. Anesthesia is managed by specialists from the Brazilian Society of Anesthesia. The team also uses deep vein thrombosis prophylaxis, including early walking and medication, to lower surgical risks.
Recovery and Post-Operative Care
Patients receive a structured recovery plan to help the healing process. The protocol includes:
- Hospital stay: Drains remain in place for 24 to 48 hours to prevent fluid buildup.
- Wound care: A head bandage is worn on the first day, and stitches come out within 7 to 14 days.
- Activity: Most patients return to their normal daily routine after about 15 days.
- Specialized therapy: Lymphatic drainage sessions begin on day five to reduce swelling.
- Scar management: The clinic provides silicone gel to help incisions fade over time.

Accreditations and Professional Recognition
The clinic holds certifications that reflect international and national medical standards:
- SBCP (Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery)
- TEMOS International Certification
- ISAPS (International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery)
Dr. Bianca Ohana is a Titular Member of the SBCP. She maintains clinical partnerships with the National Cancer Institute (INCA) and Oncologia Américas.
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
The surgical team addresses aesthetic and functional concerns through individualized planning. For nasal procedures, the clinic performs structured rhinoplasty and septoplasty to balance appearance with breathing function. Reconstructive services focus on oncologic care, including breast reconstruction using the DIEP flap technique – this uses the patient's own abdominal tissue.
The practice also treats various skin conditions and aesthetic goals:
- Management of benign and malignant skin tumors
- Blepharoplasty with precision tissue preservation for eyelid function
- Facelifts, neck lifts, and eyebrow-elevation surgery
- Body contouring including liposuction, tummy tucks, and buttock lifts
- Correction of raised and keloid scars using silicone-based protocols
Surgeries take place at hospitals with emergency support, including Rede D'Or and Hospital Samaritano.
Aesthetic Medicine and Cosmetology
Non-surgical treatments form part of personalized facial rejuvenation plans. The clinic uses MD Codes, a standardized system for hyaluronic acid fillers, to achieve natural-looking lifting and volume. Patients seeking nasal improvement without surgery can choose Liquid Rhinoplasty (Rinomodelação). This refines the nasal bridge or tip using fillers.
The aesthetic department uses specialized platforms for skin tightening and texture:
- Ulthera microfocused ultrasound for non-invasive lifting
- Fractional CO2 laser for skin resurfacing
- Sculptra and other collagen biostimulators
- Botulinum toxin for wrinkle reduction and excessive sweating
These office-based procedures are often combined to treat lines around the eyes or sharpen jawline definition.
Safety Protocols and Clinical Team
The medical team includes 7 doctors specializing in plastic surgery, dermatology, endocrinology, and anesthesiology. Dr. Bianca Ohana completed her residency at INCA and an Aesthetic International Fellowship at the University of Utah. All major cases require preoperative cardiology and laboratory assessments to reduce surgical risks.
Only members of the Brazilian Society of Anesthesia perform anesthesia. Post-surgical safety includes deep vein thrombosis prevention through early movement and medication when needed.
Services for International Patients
The clinic supports patients traveling to Rio de Janeiro through telemedicine coordination for initial consultations. International visitors receive written post-procedure guidance at discharge. Follow-up instructions also come via WhatsApp, so patients can manage recovery steps like medication schedules and wound care after returning home.
