Hospital of Plastic Surgery of Porto Alegre

Hospital of Plastic Surgery of Porto Alegre is a specialized medical facility in Brazil. It's the only hospital in Rio Grande do Sul dedicated 100% to plastic surgery. The clinic provides a focused environment for both aesthetic and functional procedures. Patients receive care in a single building with three specialized departments.

Accreditations and Standards

The hospital holds TEMOS accreditation, which focuses on patient safety and experience. The facility follows strict sterilization and surgical safety protocols. Its surgical suite features positive-pressure ventilation and advanced monitoring equipment.

Plastic Surgery Specialties

The clinic performs over 1,000 procedures across facial, breast, and body surgery. Dr. Antônio Carlos Schilling Minuzzi Filho leads the surgical team.

Facial Rejuvenation and Reshaping

Surgeons perform Ritidoplastia (facelift) to restore facial firmness and reposition tissues. These techniques preserve the patient's facial identity. Rhinoplasty options address both aesthetic and functional goals. The team performs several nose job variants:

• Open and closed rhinoplasty
• Tip rhinoplasty to refine the nasal end
• Septoplasty to correct deviated septums
• Reconstructive surgery for facial harmony

Blepharoplasty refreshes the eye area by removing excess skin.

Breast Surgery and Mommy Makeovers

The hospital offers breast reshaping through mammoplasty and mastopexy. Surgeons use silicone implants for augmentation and to correct asymmetries. Reduction mammoplasty is available for patients who want to decrease breast volume. The Mommy Makeover combines multiple procedures to restore the body after pregnancy.

This personalized combination may include:

• Mastopexy with or without prosthesis
• Breast augmentation or reduction
• Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck)
• Liposuction for localized fat reduction

Each case undergoes individual evaluation to determine the best approach.

Body Contouring and Liposuction

Specialists perform advanced liposuction variants like 360 liposuction and neck liposuction. The clinic also provides Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) and belt lipectomy. These procedures target the abdomen, thighs, back, and arms. Abdominoplasty removes excess tissue and tightens abdominal muscles.

Technology and Surgical Equipment

The facility uses radiofrequency-assisted technology to improve surgical outcomes. BodyTite (RFAL) helps with skin retraction and body contouring. This technology improves firmness while cutting recovery times. The hospital also uses Morpheus and CO₂ lasers for skin texture improvements. Operating rooms feature LED lighting designed for optimal surgical visibility.
