Rhytidectomy or facelift is a surgical procedure to correct imperfection soriginated by the natural passage of time.

This treatment can improve the mandibular ending, one of the most important face features.

It is used to correct ears that are very long, prominent or with an inadequate shape. We use internal sutures to correct the unequal projection and bend the auricular cartilage, giving it an ear with a more natural appearance and profile.

Rhinoplasty can reduce or increase the size of your nose, change the shape of the nose or the bridge, improve the opening of the nostrils or change the angle between the nose and the upper lip.

Breast implant colocation or prosthesis is used in cosmetic surgery to increase the breast size (known as breast augmentation or augmentation mammoplasty). There are two types of implants according to their filling material - saline and silicone, with many different shapes and textures available, however we strongly recommend the usage of silicone implants rather than saline one, because of the durability, their lifelong guarantee and better quality.

Breast reduction, technically known as mammoplasty reduction, is a procedure designed for women with very large and heavy breasts and pendulums, as they may experience a variety of medical problems caused by excessive overweight, ranging from back or neck pains, and skin irritation to skeletal deformations and respiratory problems.

Mastopexy or breast lift surgery is usually done to correct drooping breasts that may occur after giving birth. Mammograms (breast x-rays) and routine breast exams are required before surgery.

The majority of women who underwent a mastectomy have a surgical indication for breast reconstruction. Some women seek to feel fuller, more feminine or want to avoid the discomfort associated with the daily use of external breast prosthesis.

In women it is normal that there is a slight asymmetry between one breast and another, but when it becomes visible it can be a real problem that affects the physical and emotional health of women, it affects the perception of their body and femininity.

Gynecomastia is a condition in which man’s breast tissues increase their size noticeably. Gynecomastia literally means "woman's breast".
