Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

The clinic offers surgical procedures for body and facial enhancement. Body contouring options include abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), arm lifts, and liposculpture. Brazilian Butt Lifts and mommy makeovers help restore body proportions.

Breast surgery is a core specialty. Dr. Báez offers several mastopexy (breast lift) techniques for different degrees of sagging:

• Crescent Lift
• Peri-Areolar (Donut) Lift
• Vertical (Lollipop) Lift
• Anchor (Inverted T) Lift

Facial procedures include rhinoplasty, otoplasty for ear reshaping, and blepharoplasty. Deep plane and mini facelifts are available for facial rejuvenation. The clinic also performs reconstructive procedures, such as breast reconstruction after mastectomy.

Aesthetic Medicine and Non-Surgical Rejuvenation

Non-surgical treatments offer rejuvenation with minimal downtime. The practice uses PRP therapy, which draws on the patient's own blood to promote tissue healing. This method works for facial rejuvenation and specialized genital treatments.

Dermal fillers and Botox injections smooth wrinkles and sculpt facial features. Results typically last three to six months. A non-surgical slimming program combines non-invasive procedures for body contouring.

Specialized Equipment and Technology

Surgeries use modern technology to improve precision. The practice offers Vaser liposuction, which uses ultrasound energy to break down fat cells before removal. This protects surrounding tissues and improves skin retraction.

Facial treatments may include AccuTite for targeted skin tightening. Mole mapping and digital dermoscopy are available for skin health monitoring.

International Patient Services

Dr. Australia Fragoso Báez provides structured support from initial inquiry through recovery. Online consultations are available via video for patients who cannot visit in person. During these calls, patients can share photos for a preliminary surgical assessment.

Every surgical patient receives a detailed aftercare plan. This includes instructions on managing discomfort and using compression garments. The clinic stays in contact through follow-up appointments to monitor healing.
