Surgical Specialties and Methods

The clinic focuses on facial harmony and body contouring through surgical and non-surgical treatments. Each procedure involves a surgeon, anesthesiologist, surgical instrument specialist, and nursing staff.

Facial and Reconstructive Surgery

Specialists balance aesthetic goals with respiratory function in nasal procedures. The clinic performs various facial operations:

• Rhinoplasty – including functional septoplasty and ultrasonic techniques
• Blepharoplasty – removing excess tissue to reduce under-eye bags
• Bichectomy – removing fat pads to refine cheek contour
• Mentoplasty – chin augmentation to improve facial profile
• Otoplasty – ear pinning and reshaping

Precise diagnostic planning and pre-operative evaluations help achieve natural-looking results. For hair restoration, the clinic offers capillary transplants and PRP treatments to strengthen hair and manage alopecia.

Body Aesthetic Surgery

The clinic treats localized fat deposits and breast concerns with targeted surgical methods. Surgeons perform conventional and laser-based liposuction for both men and women. This technique targets fat in the abdomen, back, and hips that doesn't respond to diet or exercise.

Breast procedures include mammoplasty and mastopexy. For augmentation, the clinic uses silicone gel implants designed to improve shape and volume. Scars are placed around the areola, so they remain nearly invisible over time.

Technology and Treatment Protocols

The clinic uses modern platforms to improve patient safety and recovery times. Plexr technology allows non-surgical laser rejuvenation. This system treats skin laxity and wrinkles without traditional incisions.

For injectable treatments, Dr. Gil uses reticulated hyaluronic acid fillers. This material maintains stable facial volume longer than non-reticulated versions. The practice also provides Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy to stimulate tissue regeneration.

Services for International Patients

The practice accommodates travelers from the United States and Canada. Spanish-speaking support is available throughout the consultation and recovery process. The clinic provides guidance on post-procedure care for safe healing after international travel.

Patients follow a structured recovery protocol:

• Compression garments worn for 4–8 weeks
• Nutritional guides provided by the surgical team
• Follow-up evaluations coordinated via mobile platforms

Safety protocols require patients to avoid anti-inflammatories and specific vitamins for 10 days before surgery. This reduces bleeding risk and helps achieve planned surgical outcomes.
