Narayana Serpa, Plastic surgeon

With explant breast surgery performed under general anesthesia for an average of 2 to 4 hours, Narayana Serpa helps patients move from silicone implants back to a more natural breast appearance—often with a mastopexy when tissue repositioning is needed. As a specialist at Dr. Narayana Serpa in Brazil, she combines surgical precision with non-surgical skin tightening using the Ignite RF platform. Ignite RF is based on bipolar radiofrequency technology (Quantum RF), designed to work in both deep and superficial skin layers to support collagen and firmness. For international patients, the clinic offers both in-person and online consultations, so the first step can be planned around your timeline.
