Daniel Volpato — plastic surgery is a private clinic in Brazil. The practice has two branches in Florianópolis and Itapema, both in Santa Catarina state. It focuses on aesthetic and reconstructive procedures for breasts and body contouring.

- Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP)

Dr. Volpato completed his residency at the Federal University of Santa Catarina. He then trained in the United States at the NYU Institute of Reconstructive Plastic Surgery and the UCI Aesthetic & Plastic Surgery Institute.
Specialized Breast Surgery
The clinic offers surgeries to change breast volume, shape, and position. Each treatment starts with a detailed plan based on skin quality and pregnancy history. Available procedures include:
- Breast augmentation using silicone implants or fat transfer
- Mastopexy (breast lift) to reposition the areola and tissue
- Breast reduction for functional relief and aesthetic symmetry
- Correction of gigantomastia (excessively large breasts)
Patients who want contouring without added volume can choose surgeries without implants. This approach removes excess skin and corrects sagging. The surgeon makes precise markings and takes photographs right before the operation.
Body Contouring and Liposculpture
The practice uses various techniques to reshape the abdomen and limbs. Surgeons perform abdominoplasty to restore muscle firmness and remove stretch marks. For targeted fat removal, the clinic offers Vaser 3 Areas combined with a tummy tuck.
Other body contouring options include:
- Lipoaspiration and liposculpture for fat redistribution
- Gluteoplasty using implants or fat grafting
- Arm lifting to remove loose skin
- Thigh lifting for improved leg contour
- Reverse tummy tuck for upper abdominal concerns
Patient Support and Recovery Services
A surgical concierge service supports patients and companions during the hospital stay. This team coordinates the surgical workflow and provides personal assistance throughout hospitalization. The clinic is available around the clock for urgent questions during recovery.
Post-operative care continues at home after discharge. A nurse provides a home visit in the first days after surgery. This includes changing dressings and helping with the first bath. Dr. Volpato monitors wound healing and scar development during regular follow-up appointments.
Services for International Patients
The clinic treats international patients at its Florianópolis location. Staff and the medical team communicate in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. Dedicated support contacts help coordinate appointments for those traveling from abroad.
