Body Contouring and Facial Surgery
The clinic focuses on high-volume body surgeries and facial rejuvenation. Every procedure uses a Fast Recovery approach – brief, efficient surgical times that reduce inflammation and bruising.
Body procedures include several specialized methods:
- Abdominoplasty: Tummy tuck surgery often performed under regional anesthesia. The procedure typically lasts 3–4 hours with recovery of 10–14 days.
- Gluteoplasty: Buttock reshaping via silicone gel implants or fat transfer. Fat transfer involves injecting 300–500 cc of fat per side.
- Liposculpture: Advanced contouring including 360-degree liposuction and muscle definition (lipomarcación).
- Mammaplasty: Breast augmentation, lifting, or reduction procedures.
Facial surgery covers both structural and aging-related concerns. Options include blepharoplasty for eyelid correction and ritidoplasty for face lifting. Rhinoplasty and mentoplasty (chin augmentation) are also available.
Technological Capabilities
The clinic uses energy-based technologies to improve surgical outcomes and offer non-invasive alternatives. These tools stimulate tissue and speed up healing.
Available technologies include:
- INDIBA (448 kHz): A radiofrequency system used after surgery to reduce swelling and discomfort.
- Ultherapy: Microfocused ultrasound with real-time visualization for non-surgical skin lifting.
- Musculptech: High-intensity electromagnetic stimulation for muscle toning and non-surgical slimming.
- Laser Erbium YAG: Used for skin resurfacing and precise tissue management.
Safety relies on specialized techniques like low-pressure syringe liposuction, which minimizes bleeding during fat removal. The clinic also uses catheters in breast surgeries to manage pain effectively from day one.

The clinic has a dedicated department for patients traveling to Colombia for surgery. This team helps international visitors through their medical journey in Bogotá.
