Breast Augmentation with Fat Transfer in Dr. Felipe Mazzillo Plastic Surgery Clinic
About the clinic
Breast augmentation with fat transfer at the Dr. Felipe Mazzillo Plastic Surgery Clinic in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, offers a natural way to enhance breast shape. This procedure combines fat grafting with implants to achieve a soft and balanced look. The clinic is led by Dr. Felipe Mazzillo, who holds certifications from the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.
Expert Surgical Care
Dr. Felipe Mazzillo performs these surgeries with a focus on patient safety and natural-looking results. He completed his residency at the Pitanguy Institute and an internship at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. Dr. Mazzillo uses specific methods to make the recovery process easier for his patients. For example, he places implants in the subglandular position above the chest muscle. This choice reduces pain after surgery and makes the procedure less invasive.
Advanced Surgical Methods
The clinic follows a detailed plan for every breast enhancement procedure to help with healing and long-term comfort. Key features of the surgery include:
- Inframammary fold incision: The surgeon makes the cut in the natural crease under the breast. This hides the scar and avoids damage to the milk ducts.
- Subglandular placement: Placing the implant above the muscle helps shorten recovery time.
- Fat transfer: Using the patient's own fat helps smooth the edges of the implant for a more natural feel.
- Short hospital stay: Patients usually go home the same day or stay for only one night.
Safety and Recovery Protocols
Safety is a priority at this facility in Rio de Janeiro. Before any surgery, every patient must undergo a full heart health check and other medical exams. After the procedure, the clinic provides a structured follow-up schedule. Patients visit the doctor every week for the first month. These meetings then change to once a month until all swelling is gone. This support is helpful for international patients traveling to Brazil for their care. You can leave a request on Bookimed to learn more about the surgical timeline and initial evaluation.

Medical Expertise and Accreditations
Dr. Felipe Mazzillo is a board-certified plastic surgeon. He holds credentials from the SBCP (Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery) and the ASPS (American Society of Plastic Surgeons). He also serves as a preceptor and professor for plastic surgery residents. His training includes a residency at the Pitanguy Institute and an internship at the Miller School of Medicine in the United States.
The clinic follows a "Safety First" protocol for every procedure. Specialists prescribe pre-operative exams based on individual needs, often including a full cardiological evaluation. This screening helps optimize surgical outcomes and patient safety.
Body Contouring and Reconstructive Surgery
The surgical team performs procedures to reshape the abdomen, limbs, and gluteal regions. Surgeons often combine techniques for more balanced results. Specialized body procedures include:
- Abdominoplasty to remove excess skin and tighten abdominal muscles
- Liposuction of the flanks, back, and abdomen to shape the waist
- Brazilian Butt Lift using fat grafting from the flanks to the buttocks
- Brachioplasty (arm lift) to remove tissue from the inner arm and armpit
- Thigh lifts and gluteal or calf implants
Brachioplasty typically requires a 24-hour hospital stay. Patients usually need two weeks off work for initial recovery.
Facial Surgery and Breast Procedures
The clinic offers surgeries for the face and breasts. Facial procedures focus on rejuvenation and structural enhancement. Breast surgeries address both aesthetic goals and reconstructive needs.
Available surgical options include:
- Blepharoplasty, facelift, and endoscopic brow lift
- Rhinoplasty, otoplasty, and chin implants
- Breast augmentation with implants and mastopexy
- Breast reduction and reconstructive surgery after tumor removal
Surgeons also treat skin tumors as part of their reconstructive services.
Non-Surgical Rejuvenation and Recovery
For patients who prefer alternatives to surgery, the clinic offers a non-surgical slimming program. This approach uses Sonic Fisio Maxx technology for localized fat reduction. The treatment requires no needles or anesthesia and leaves no marks. Facial rejuvenation is also available through botulinum toxin and dermal fillers.
To improve healing, the clinic uses photobiomodulation. This infrared laser and LED therapy helps control scar formation and supports tissue regeneration. Dr. Mazzillo stays available by phone throughout recovery to answer patient questions.
Services for International Patients
The clinic provides structured care planning for patients traveling from abroad. This includes coordinating the initial evaluation and setting a timeline for surgical monitoring. Post-operative follow-up is scheduled weekly during the first month. Afterward, patients attend monthly visits until swelling resolves and the final result is visible.
