Ramiro Álvarez Henao

With 18+ years of experience, Ramiro Álvarez Henao performs facial rejuvenation using autologous fat (lipofilling facial) and pairs it with non-surgical options such as Botox and Juvederm at clinic Bioforma in Medellín. At Bioforma, he focuses on personalized aesthetic planning across the face and body, including primary rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery, ear surgery, and comprehensive facial lifting (ritidoplasty). For body contouring, his surgical menu includes classic body liposculpture/liposuction, abdominoplasty, and chin/papada surgery with techniques aimed at restoring definition. Breast procedures are also part of his routine—breast augmentation with implants (mammaplasty of increase), mastopexy (breast lift), and breast reduction—so patients can align volume, shape, and symmetry in one treatment plan.
