Clinic Lis is a multi-specialty medical facility in Rio de Janeiro's Centro district. The clinic operates from a single building with three specialized departments. It provides care across plastic surgery, dermatology, bariatric surgery, endocrinology, and vascular medicine. Four physicians deliver support for both aesthetic and medical needs.
Accreditations and Professional Standards
The clinic holds certifications from several international and domestic organizations. These credentials signal compliance with safety and quality protocols. The medical team operates under standards set by:
- SBCP (Sociedade Brasileira de Cirurgia Plástica)
- TEMOS International Healthcare Accreditation
- ISAPS (International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery)
Specialties and Specialized Procedures
The plastic surgery department offers a full range of body and facial procedures. Surgeons perform rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, facelifts, and liposuction. The clinic also specializes in post-bariatric reconstructive surgeries, including abdominoplasty and mammaplasty. Mini-abdominoplasty is available too – it uses smaller incisions for excess skin removal below the navel.
For breast aesthetics, the clinic uses the R24r (Real 24 Recovery) protocol with Dual Plane implant placement. The top of the silicone implant sits behind muscle, while the base rests behind mammary glands. Patients can raise their arms shortly after anesthesia wears off. Most can lift up to 15 kg and wash their hair by the next day.
The vascular surgery and phlebology unit treats varicose veins and telangiectasias. Specialists use minimally invasive methods to address blue nourishing veins and microvarices:
- CLACS (Cryolaser and Cryosclerotherapy)
- EVLA (Endovenous Laser Ablation)
- Venefit radiofrequency for saphenous veins
- Foam sclerotherapy
Patients undergoing laser vein treatments are often released immediately. They can typically resume physical activities the following day.
Dermatology services cover both medical and aesthetic skin concerns. The team uses MD Codes for facial lifting effects – a point-based hyaluronic acid technique that rejuvenates without surgery. Other options include Sculptra for collagen stimulation and CO2 Fracionado laser for wrinkles, scars, and pigment issues.
The endocrinology department treats metabolic and hormonal disorders. Physicians monitor and treat:
- Type 2 diabetes
- Thyroid nodules and disorders
- Osteoporosis
- Weight loss management
This department focuses on individualized hormonal care and long-term monitoring.
Advanced Medical Technologies
Clinic Lis uses digital tools for diagnostic accuracy and patient visualization. Vascular consultations use augmented reality with infrared light. This projects vessel paths directly onto the patient's skin in real time. For surgical planning, a 3D Simulator lets patients see potential results before breast or facial surgery.
International Patient Care
The clinic supports international patients through a secure telemedicine platform. Specialists conduct structured clinical interviews to guide treatment from abroad, so patients know when an in-person visit to Rio de Janeiro is needed. For post-operative safety, surgeons and anesthesiologists share direct contact numbers for recovery questions. The clinic also uses the MEMED system for digital prescription signatures. Pharmacies validate these orders via a secure QR code system.
