Facelift in Hospital of Plastic Surgery of Porto Alegre
About the clinic
Facelift surgery, also known as ritidoplastia, is available at the Hospital of Plastic Surgery of Porto Alegre in Brazil. This specialized facility holds TEMOS accreditation, which confirms high quality standards for international patients. The clinic focuses entirely on plastic surgery, making it the only hospital of its kind in the Rio Grande do Sul region.
Facelift Methods and Targeted Areas
Surgeons at the hospital use modern techniques to address facial sagging and deep wrinkles. These methods help restore definition to the jawline, mid-face, and neck. The clinic offers two primary approaches to help patients achieve a refreshed appearance:
- Endoscopic facelift: This method uses a tiny camera and small instruments to lift tissues through small incisions.
- Mini facelift: This technique focuses on specific areas of the face with less invasive surgical steps.
These procedures help preserve your natural facial identity while removing signs of aging. Patients can also combine a facelift with blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, during the same session. The results from these procedures typically last between 8 to 12 years.
Recovery and Patient Care
The hospital provides a dedicated recovery room with a nursing station for close monitoring. Patients have the option for an overnight stay to rest comfortably after the procedure. The surgical team uses discreet incisions to minimize visible scarring. Initial recovery usually takes between 10 to 15 days.
International guests can access an exclusive concierge service to help with their needs during their stay. The facility is designed to provide a smooth experience from the surgery through the initial healing phase. You can leave a request on Bookimed to learn more about starting your treatment in Porto Alegre.

Hospital of Plastic Surgery of Porto Alegre: more details about the clinic
Hospital da Plástica de Porto Alegre is a specialized medical facility in Brazil dedicated exclusively to plastic surgery. Located in the Floresta neighborhood, it is the only hospital in Rio Grande do Sul focused entirely on this specialty. The hospital operates from a single building organized into three departments. It offers a private environment designed for surgical safety and patient privacy.
Accreditations and Safety Standards
The hospital holds TEMOS accreditation, confirming its adherence to international quality standards for medical travelers. The surgical suite features positive-pressure ventilation and specialized LED lighting to maintain a sterile environment. A multidisciplinary team follows strict safety protocols from check-in through recovery. Advanced monitoring technology tracks patient safety throughout each procedure.
Plastic Surgery and Aesthetic Procedures
Plastic surgery is the sole focus of the hospital, with more than 1,000 procedures performed to date. Dr. Antônio Carlos Schilling Minuzzi Filho leads the surgical team. He specializes in both aesthetic and reconstructive techniques. The facility manages several facial and body procedures:
- Facelift (Ritidoplastia): Methods include endoscopic and mini facelifts to reposition tissues and restore firmness.
- Rhinoplasty: Surgeons perform open and closed techniques to modify nasal shape or correct septal deviations.
- Mammoplasty: Options include breast augmentation with silicone implants, reduction, and lifts (mastopexy).
- Body Contouring: This includes abdominoplasty and liposuction variants for the abdomen, back, and limbs.
- Mommy Makeover: A personalized combination that addresses post-pregnancy changes through breast and abdominal surgeries.
The hospital also treats keloid scars and performs dermabrasion to improve skin texture.
Advanced Medical Technologies
The clinic uses radiofrequency and laser platforms to support skin retraction and improve surgical outcomes. BodyTite technology uses radiofrequency-assisted liposuction to liquefy fat while tightening skin at the same time. For non-surgical skin resurfacing, the hospital uses Laser de CO2 and Morpheus. These tools complement traditional surgery to enhance final contours and skin texture.
International Patient Services and Recovery
The hospital provides a patient-centered experience tailored to surgical needs. A dedicated concierge service supports patients and family members throughout their stay. The recovery room accommodates up to five patients at a time for individualized monitoring. Patients receive a comfort kit, and an exclusive lounge is available for accompanying relatives.
Overnight stays are available for those requiring extended observation. Post-operative care is managed at a specialized nursing station. On-site parking is available for local and visiting families.
