About the clinic

Hair loss assessment
Dr. Sonia Díaz, the clinic’s medical director, heads the hair restoration unit. The assessment can include a complete clinical hair study and scalp examination. The team also reviews medical history and may use tests to investigate possible causes of hair loss.
- Hair specialist consultation. The first medical consultation is with Dr. Sonia Díaz and may cost around $70. The fee is deducted from the total cost of treatment performed.
- Scalp and laboratory checks. Assessment may include blood tests, a scalp biopsy, and mineral and vitamin level tests.
- Major surgery consultation. A first consultation with the plastic surgeon may cost around $200. The fee is deducted from the total cost of treatment performed.
Non-surgical hair restoration options
The clinic offers medical treatments before surgery, with options selected according to the hair loss assessment. A personalized plan follows four phases: diagnosis, treatment, professional follow-up, and home maintenance.
- PRP therapy. Platelet-rich plasma is offered as a medical option before considering surgery.
- Scalp mesotherapy. This injection therapy may be combined with LED photodynamic therapy and vitamins, based on the degree of alopecia.
- LED photodynamic therapy. The KAVEL PHOTOLASER helmet by Medi+Derm delivers low-level laser therapy and scalp biostimulation. It is used for maintenance and follicle thickening.
- Other regenerative therapies. Cell-stimulation treatments may help restore the scalp without surgery in some cases.
- Personalized supplementation. Oral supplements address nutritional deficiencies that may contribute to hair loss.
FUE hair transplant
Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a minimally invasive hair transplant. Individual follicles are taken from the back and sides of the scalp, then placed in areas affected by alopecia. Each session lasts a few hours, and the procedure does not require a hospital stay. Normal hair growth may take 2 to 5 months to resume. Transplanted follicles come from donor areas described as resistant to DHT, a hormone linked to hair loss.
Patients can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss assessment and treatment options.

Recognitions and Quality Standards
The clinic holds ISO 9001 certification. In 2016, it received the Estrella de Oro a la Excelencia Profesional from the Instituto para la Excelencia Profesional. Medical Director Dr. Sonia Díaz has also earned recognition from the Ilustre Academia de Ciencias de la Salud Ramón y Cajal.
Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery
The surgical department provides full continuity of care. This includes an initial study, treatment, post-operative care, and long-term follow-up. Surgeons perform several facial and body contouring procedures:
- Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery)
- Rhinoplasty (nose reshaping)
- Otoplasty (ear surgery)
- Bichectomy (cheek fat removal)
- Mini lifting and lipofilling
- Breast augmentation using implants or autologous fat
Rhinoplasty patients undergo a paranasal sinus CT scan to ensure a safe surgical plan. Most surgical patients go home within five hours of the procedure.
Aesthetic Medicine and Laser Treatments
The clinic has a dedicated laser unit for non-surgical rejuvenation and skin repair. Specialists use DEEPSPOT fractional laser for personalized scar treatment. This system includes a Profundo mode to stimulate collagen in atrophic scars. It also features a Frío mode to protect pigment in hypertrophic scars.
The unit also offers Ultherapy Prime, which uses focused ultrasound to lift skin without incisions. For facial wrinkles, the clinic provides tensor threads under local anesthesia.
The medical team performs genital skin lightening as well. This process combines lasers, chemical acids, and specialized creams. Patients typically need 3–5 sessions for lasting results.
Weight Management and Nutrition
The Área de Nutrición focuses on metabolic balance and weight reduction. Surgeons perform gastric sleeve surgery using laparoscopic techniques. This minimally invasive method requires only five small incisions. During the operation, surgeons remove 60–80% of the stomach capacity. This reduces hunger and increases the feeling of fullness. The department also provides:
- Intragastric balloon placement
- Nutritional coaching and follow-up
- Oligotest to analyze vitamin and mineral imbalances
- Non-surgical fat reduction via CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting uses controlled cooling to destroy fat cells without harming surrounding tissue.
International Patient Services
Clínica ICA offers a structured information system for international visitors. The medical team provides consultations in English and Spanish. Dedicated messaging for foreign patients helps travelers understand their assessment before arriving in Tenerife. After treatment, the clinic provides periodic reviews for patients with implants to monitor long-term progress.
