Plastic Surgery and Body Contouring
The clinic performs a wide range of body and breast procedures. Breast surgery options include augmentation, lift, and explant surgery to restore breast shape. Body contouring focuses on abdominoplasty, liposculpture, and surgery for patients after bariatric weight loss. The team also reshapes the buttocks. When medically indicated, surgeons remove biopolymers too.
Facial procedures aim to rejuvenate the face without changing natural expressions. Specialists offer several facial surgeries:
- Rhinoplasty to improve nasal harmony and breathing
- Blepharoplasty to remove excess eyelid skin and bags
- Rhytidoplasty (facelift) and neck rejuvenation
- Otoplasty for ear correction
- Cheek slimming and contouring
Each rhinoplasty plan addresses both symmetry and functional deviations of the nose.
Patient Safety and Surgical Standards
Every patient follows the same structured path to surgery. It starts with a medical evaluation, pre-surgical exams, and an anesthesiology review. Surgeries take place in certified operating rooms within the CQBelleza building. This means specialized surgical support is close at hand. Patients also get monitored right after the operation.
Doctors and nurses are available 24/7, and patients stay in the hospital when necessary. After every operation, the team schedules lab checks and medical follow-up. Patients receive post-operative massages and clinical checkups to support healing. This way, the team can track recovery and results from the first day.
Services for International Patients
The practice handles logistics for patients arriving from abroad. International patients can have their first medical evaluation through virtual consultations. For recovery, the clinic offers a hotel-style setting with dedicated nursing care. This makes the trip simpler, since patients have professional support throughout their stay in Cali.
After major procedures like rhinoplasty, international patients usually stay in Colombia for two to three weeks. Clinic staff manage medical follow-up and clinical checkups during this entire period. Because the care model is integrated, lab work and recovery services are all available in one place.
