Сonsultation avec un dermatologue à Juan Botero Londoño

Juan Botero Londoño is a private plastic surgery practice in Medellín, Colombia. The clinic operates from a specialized medical facility in the El Poblado district. Lead surgeon Dr. Juan Botero Londoño directs the practice with over 14 years of clinical experience. He trained at CES University and specialized in plastic surgery at the University of Antioquia.

Professional Memberships and Standards

The practice follows standards set by two major professional organizations. Dr. Botero Londoño is a member of the Sociedad Colombiana de Cirugía Plástica and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. These affiliations require specific ethical and safety protocols in aesthetic and reconstructive procedures. Surgical operations take place in high-technology operating rooms with safety monitoring systems.

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

The clinic offers a wide range of aesthetic and functional procedures for the face and body. Every surgical plan starts with a consultation to assess the patient's anatomy and health history. Specialists match surgical techniques to each individual's expected recovery course.

Breast Procedures

The clinic performs aesthetic, reconstructive, and corrective breast surgeries. Mastopexy (breast lift) restores shape and is often combined with augmentation. Surgeons place implants above or below the muscle depending on tissue availability. Some patients may qualify for fat injection instead of implants.

• Breast augmentation using cohesive silicone gel implants
• Breast reduction to relieve physical discomfort
• Prepectoral breast reconstruction after trauma or illness
• Complete or en bloc capsulectomy for implant removal

Breast explantation is a signature focus of the practice. Surgeons remove implants for medical or aesthetic reasons while managing the remaining capsule. Each reconstruction plan is designed for natural contour and patient comfort.

Face and Body Contouring

Rhinoplasty procedures address both aesthetic harmony and respiratory function. The surgeon uses closed or open techniques depending on the need for nasal tip refinement or septal correction. Septoplasty is also available to treat deviated septums and improve airflow.

Body contouring targets localized fat and skin laxity. Liposuction uses specialized cannulas to treat the abdomen, arms, and thighs. The clinic offers 360 liposuction and "lipomarcación" to define abdominal muscles. Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) removes excess skin and tightens abdominal muscles to shape the waistline.

The surgical team also includes specialists for other aesthetic needs:

• Dr. Lisa Moore specializes in facial contouring and Botox injections.
• Dr. Mark Keanly focuses on abdominoplasty and body correction.
• Dr. Mary Walker provides dermatology services and hair health treatments.
• Dr. Richard Lee manages reconstructive and alterative surgeries.

For patients needing reconstructive care, the clinic offers Mohs microsurgery for skin cancer and specialized scar management. Keloid scar treatments are planned based on the specific healing phase of the tissue.

International Patient Services

The practice provides dedicated guidance for patients traveling to Medellín for surgery. Staff offer messaging support to help coordinate consultations and appointments. Patients receive specific recommendations to prepare for international travel and local recovery.

• Guidance on airport transportation options
• Recommendations for post-operative lodging in Medellín
• Advice on arranging transportation for medical check-ups
• Coordination of pre-operative preparation requirements

International patients should arrive 2–4 days before surgery for final evaluations. The clinic recommends booking local accommodation for 10–20 days to allow proper monitoring during early recovery. Staff provide a detailed guide with 15 care recommendations to support healing and manage inflammation.
