Consulto con un chirurgo in Dr. Jonathan Masson

Dr. Jonathan Masson is a private plastic and reconstructive surgery practice in Medellín, Colombia. Established in 2023, the clinic provides individualized surgical planning for adults seeking aesthetic and corrective procedures. Surgery is performed at licensed facilities including AC Quirófanos and Quirófanos 2Sur. Both are registered in Colombia's national health provider database.

Accreditations and Professional Credentials

Dr. Jonathan Masson holds a valid ReTHUS professional registration under the name Yonathan Masson Lezama. The practice is officially listed in the Special Registry of Health Service Providers (REPS) in Colombia. His specialist qualifications in plastic surgery were validated by the Colombian Ministry of National Education in 2023.

The medical lead received his specialist degree from the University of Buenos Aires. He also earned certification from the Medical Board of the Province of Buenos Aires. The clinic focuses on treating international patients. Most travelers arrive from the United States, Canada, and various European countries.

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

The practice specializes in body contouring and breast procedures tailored to each patient's anatomy. Dr. Masson uses technology-assisted methods to improve surgical outcomes and support recovery. Every surgical plan begins with a consultation to review medical history and establish realistic goals.

The clinic offers several flagship procedures:

• High-definition liposculpture using ultrasound and power-assisted technologies
• Lipoabdominoplasty, which combines a tummy tuck with liposuction
• Mommy makeover packages including breast and abdominal restoration
• Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) using fat grafting in the subcutaneous plane
• Reconstructive surgery for scars and physical sequelae

For breast surgeries, the clinic performs augmentation, lifts (mastopexy), and reductions. A breast lift can be combined with implants in a single session if the patient wants more volume.

Technologies and Surgical Equipment

The practice uses hardware designed for precise tissue management and skin tightening. These tools allow more defined contouring results than traditional suction methods. All equipment is used within licensed operating rooms.

Key technologies available at the clinic include:

• VASER ultrasound-assisted liposuction for selective fat removal
• MicroAire power-assisted liposuction to improve surgical precision
• Renuvion helium plasma technology for tissue contraction and skin firming

These platforms are mainly used during body contouring to reduce trauma to surrounding tissues. This helps manage swelling during the early postoperative phase.

International Patient Services and Recovery

The clinic provides structured coordination for patients traveling to Medellín. International care begins with a virtual consultation to define the surgical plan before travel. Care is delivered in Spanish, but the practice uses translation technology and interpreters to assist non-Spanish speakers.

Postoperative support includes specific guidance to optimize healing:

• Instructions to avoid all nicotine, including vapes and patches
• Dietary recommendations focusing on high protein for collagen support
• Early mobilization through short daily walks to prevent blood clots
• Assistance in finding a qualified nurse for initial hotel recovery

The team provides continuous surgical follow-up throughout the stay in Colombia. Dr. Masson personally confirms when patients may return to activities like swimming or intense exercise.
