clinic Müller

Founded in 1978, Clinic Müller is a private plastic surgery facility in Florianópolis, Brazil. The clinic focuses on reconstructive breast care and aesthetic procedures. Two dedicated surgeons manage the practice, centering their work on patient privacy and safety in a hospital-based environment.

Recognitions and Social Impact

The clinic is widely recognized for its commitment to breast cancer survivors. It has organized the breast reconstruction mutirão for 16 editions. This volunteer initiative provides free reconstructive surgery to women who cannot afford the procedure. The clinic also partners with AMUCC to support patients after a mastectomy.

Plastic Surgery and Breast Reconstruction

Breast reconstruction is a core specialty. The clinic offers both immediate and delayed options following cancer treatment. Specialists use tissue expanders or the patient's own tissue to restore volume and contour. The clinic also performs several corrective breast procedures:

• Mastopexy (breast lift) with or without silicone implants
• Breast reduction and augmentation
• Breast implant removal (explant)
• Inverted nipple correction via small incisions to remove adhesions
• Accessory breast tissue correction (polymastia)

For inverted nipple surgery, the procedure can be performed from age 15. The surgeon removes tissue adhesions so the nipple sits outward naturally.

Body Contouring and Facial Rejuvenation

The surgical team performs body contouring for patients seeking aesthetic changes or recovery after major weight loss. Surgeons use Vaser technology for liposuction and liposculpture to improve body definition. Other body procedures include:

• Lipoabdominoplasty and mini-abdominoplasty (tummy tuck)
• Brachioplasty (arm lift) to remove excess skin and flaccidity
• Thigh lifts and post-bariatric contour surgery
• Scar and keloid correction on any part of the body

Facial rejuvenation combines surgical and non-surgical methods. Facelifts and blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) typically last 5 to 10 years. Non-surgical options include botulinum toxin and collagen bio-stimulators. These help maintain skin elasticity for up to two years.

Specialized Medical Team

Dr. Henrique Müller serves as Technical Director and has been practicing since 2003. He is a titular member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery and brings over 20 years of experience. Both doctors completed their medical training at the Regional University of Blumenau. They finished their general surgery residencies at Hospital Celso Ramos.

International Patient Services

Clinic Müller coordinates care for patients traveling from other regions or countries. Online consultations last 45 minutes to 1 hour. During these sessions, the surgeon reviews medical images and discusses surgical planning. The clinic provides close follow-up from initial preparation through recovery, including a 30-day post-operative assessment.
