Diamond microdermabrasion in Theodore Droubi
About the clinic
Diamond microdermabrasion at the Theodore Droubi clinic in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, provides gentle mechanical skin resurfacing for all skin types. The procedure is performed by Dr. Theodore Droubi, who trained at the prestigious Ivo Pitanguy School and has over 30 years of surgical experience. This treatment helps improve irregular skin texture, acne scars, and fine lines without any downtime.
Treatment Methods and Process
The clinic offers two primary techniques for mechanical exfoliation based on individual skin needs. Patients can choose between a crystal spray combined with vacuum suction or a diamond-tip wand. The procedure removes dead skin cells to reveal smoother, more radiant layers underneath. Each session lasts between 15 and 60 minutes. While the process is non-invasive, local anesthesia with light sedation is used to keep patients comfortable.
Recovery and Results
There is no downtime required after this skin resurfacing treatment. You can return to your normal daily activities immediately after leaving the clinic. Dr. Theodore Droubi recommends applying moisturizer or specific facial products after the session to improve the final results. To keep the skin healthy and smooth, the clinic suggests an initial plan of two sessions per month. After the first month, one session every four weeks helps maintain the glow.
Expert Care in Rio de Janeiro
Dr. Theodore Droubi leads the clinic with extensive training from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro and the Carlos Chagas Medical Post-Graduate Institute. He is an effective member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP) and the French Centre for Permanent Medical Information. The clinic has served 60,000+ patients and provides care in English, French, Portuguese, and Arabic. This international focus makes it a preferred choice for travelers seeking aesthetic care in Brazil.

Experience and Accreditations
The clinic has treated over 60,000 patients from around the world. Dr. Theodore Droubi leads the practice with around 30 years of medical experience. He is a member of the SBCP (Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery), the clinic's primary professional accreditation.
The medical team includes two doctors who specialize in surgical and non-surgical aesthetic care. Dr. Droubi trained at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. He then specialized at the Ivo Pitanguy School, a premier institution for plastic surgery training.
Plastic Surgery and Body Contouring
The clinic offers surgical options for the face, breasts, and body. Surgeons address concerns such as prominent ears, breast development issues, and localized fat. The surgical department performs:
- Rhinoplasty and chin surgery for facial harmony
- Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) and facelifts
- Breast reduction, augmentation, and reconstruction
- High Definition Liposuction (Lipo HD) with ultrasound and laser technology
- Gynecomastia surgery to reduce male breast tissue
Body contouring reshapes the trunk and limbs through various surgical techniques. Surgeons use Vibrolipo and Vaser technologies for fat removal and skin tightening. These methods improve precision and can shorten recovery compared to traditional techniques.
Intimate Surgery and Female Health
Specialists perform delicate procedures for female genital aesthetics. These surgeries often address physical discomfort or functional concerns alongside aesthetic goals. Options include:
- Labiaplasty to reduce the size of the labia minora or majora
- Vaginoplasty to correct vaginal laxity
- Perineoplasty for structural repair and refinement
- Clitoral hood reduction and mons pubis volume reduction
Intimate surgeries typically take 1–2 hours under general or regional anesthesia. Most patients return to work within 7–14 days. The clinic advises against sexual relations for eight weeks after surgery to allow proper tissue healing.
Minimally Invasive Treatments
The clinic offers non-surgical alternatives for skin rejuvenation or fat reduction. These treatments are performed in an outpatient setting without traditional surgery. Options include:
- Lipólise – a 25-minute laser-based treatment for non-surgical fat reduction
- Injectable treatments using Botox® and Prosign® brands
- Diamond microdermabrasion for skin resurfacing
- Chemical peels and laser facial renewal
The non-surgical fat reduction program shows visible results in about six weeks. Since these procedures are minimally invasive, they require little to no downtime.
Services for International Patients
The clinic treats patients from various regions and maintains a multilingual environment. The medical team provides support and consultations in four languages:
- English
- French
- Arabic
- Portuguese
During the consultation, the surgeon creates a detailed treatment plan. This covers surgical steps, anesthesia types, and recovery expectations. All pre-operative instructions – including smoking cessation and medication management – are provided in the patient's preferred language.
