Wiederherstellungschirurgie in clinic Interplástica

Clinic Interplastica is a private plastic surgery center in Santiago de Cali. Dr. Álvaro Arana founded the facility in 1995. The clinic occupies a 1,800-square-meter space with three operating rooms and six consultation offices. Patients can access dedicated recovery rooms and suites for short hospital stays.

Professional Accreditations and Leadership

The clinic holds certifications from several professional bodies:

• International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS)
• American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS)
• Sociedad Brasileira de Cirurgia Plástica (SBCP)
• Sociedad Colombiana de Cirugía Plástica (SCCP)

Dr. Álvaro H. Arana serves as clinic director with 25 years of experience. He is Vice President of the SCCP and President of the Board of ASOCLICPER. The medical team includes six specialists in aesthetic and reconstructive surgery.

Body Contouring and Reconstructive Surgery

The surgical team performs complex body contouring using fat grafting techniques. Surgeons combine liposculpture with gluteal lipoinjection using the patient's own fat. For abdominal concerns, the clinic offers several pathways:

• Abdominoplasty to remove excess skin and repair abdominal muscles
• Liposculpture assisted by Argoplasma for skin retraction
• VASER technology to redefine body contours in selected cases
• Gynecomastia correction to treat excessive male breast tissue

Dr. Andres Felipe Manrique Trujillo specializes in these reconstructive procedures. The clinic also provides gender-affirming surgery, including phalloplasty and vaginoplasty. Vaginoplasty focuses on strengthening vaginal function and remodeling tissue.

Facial Procedures and Aesthetic Treatments

Facial specialists focus on both functional and aesthetic improvements. Dr. Alberto Henao Mejia leads this area with over 30 years of experience. He specialized in facial plastic surgery at the Universidad Autónoma de México. The department offers several facial surgeries:

• Rhinoplasty to improve breathing and facial harmony
• Blepharoplasty to remove excess skin and fat from eyelids
• Rhytidoplasty for facial rejuvenation and skin lifting
• Frontoplasty for fat extraction and reinjection into facial areas
• Bichectomy to refine cheek contours

Non-surgical treatments address temporary volume and hydration needs. Botulinum toxin injections relax facial muscles and reduce wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid improves skin firmness and elasticity. The clinic also performs otoplasty for ear correction and cheiloplasty for lip reshaping.

Technology and International Patient Care

Surgeons use Argoplasma technology to promote skin retraction and firmness. This helps patients with skin laxity. VASER technology allows precise body contouring while minimizing tissue trauma.

The clinic serves international patients through its specialist group. Surgeons guide patients through the entire decision-making process. Preoperative preparation includes blood tests, urine tests, and electrocardiograms with surgical risk evaluations. Recovery support continues for up to 12 months. Specialists monitor healing to ensure safe progress of surgical results.
