Body Contouring and Breast Surgery

The clinic performs a variety of procedures to reshape the torso and limbs. Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) removes excess skin and repairs abdominal muscles. This procedure often accompanies liposuction to define the waist and back. Liposuction also targets fat in the neck, thighs, and arms.

Breast procedures focus on both aesthetic and functional improvements:

• Breast augmentation using implants to increase volume
• Mastopexy (breast lift) to correct sagging and reposition tissue
• Breast reduction to relieve physical discomfort and improve proportion
• Gynecomastia surgery to treat enlarged male breast tissue

Reconstructive breast surgery is also available for patients needing tissue restoration.

Facial Plastic Surgery and Aesthetic Medicine

Facial procedures at the clinic aim for natural-looking results that preserve individual features. Dr. Cortés performs rhinoplasty to improve the shape or function of the nose. Other facial surgeries include blepharoplasty for drooping eyelids and otoplasty for ear reshaping. The clinic also offers cervicoplasty for neck skin and mentoplasty for chin enhancement.

For patients seeking non-surgical options, the clinic provides aesthetic medicine treatments:

• Botox injections to smooth facial wrinkles
• Hyaluronic acid fillers to restore facial volume
• Bichectomy to reduce cheek volume through small incisions

These treatments refresh the face with shorter recovery times than traditional surgery.

Patient Care and Support Services

The clinic follows a continuous accompaniment protocol for every patient. This includes medical guidance throughout planning and recovery. The team stays available for follow-up visits to monitor healing and long-term results. Patients receive specific instructions for the days after their procedures.

Consultations take place at the Horizonte medical center on scheduled appointment days each week.
