Van Gogh plastic surgery is a private specialist clinic in Porto Alegre, Brazil. Founded in 1971, it offers aesthetic and reconstructive procedures across two locations in Rio Grande do Sul. Dr. Bruno Gasperin and Dr. Felipe Fasolin operate together on every case. This dual-surgeon approach adds a second perspective, improving safety and refining results.
Accreditations and Medical Team
The clinic is accredited by the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP). Both lead surgeons are SBCP specialist members and instruct in plastic surgery residency programs. Dr. Bruno Gasperin completed his residency at Porto Alegre Clinical Hospital. Dr. Felipe Fasolin trained at the Federal University of Health Sciences of Porto Alegre and Santa Casa de Misericórdia. They limit procedure volumes so each patient receives focused recovery attention.
Breast and Body Contouring
The clinic offers mastopexy, breast lift with straps, and augmentation using fat or implants. Surgeons follow the Fast Recovery Breast Implant protocol. Procedures take about 90 minutes, and patients typically go home right after anesthetic recovery. Implants reach their final position after roughly 90 days.
For body shaping, the clinic performs several specialized surgeries:
- Abdominoplasty to correct excess skin and gestational diastasis (separated stomach muscles).
- Lipoabdominoplasty without external drains.
- High-definition liposuction to refine abdominal muscle definition.
- Gluteoplasty to improve volume and gluteal contour.
- Brachioplasty to remove excess skin and fat from the arms and armpits.
Abdominoplasty takes about 3 hours with a 12-hour hospital stay. Patients start calf exercises and walking on day one to reduce thrombosis risks.
Facial Surgery and Reconstructive Care
Facial rejuvenation includes structured rhinoplasty and otoplasty for ear correction. Anesthesia for otoplasty is tailored to patient age and preference. Reconstructive services cover scar correction, cleft lip repair, and skin lesion removal. When oncologic excision is needed, surgeons combine it with reconstruction based on lesion size. Gynecomastia surgery involves lipoaspiration and glandular tissue removal through discreet incisions along the areola.
Safety Protocols and Diagnostic Standards
The clinic runs thorough pre-operative evaluations before every surgery. Before gynecomastia procedures, specialists rule out hormonal or medication-based causes. Standard diagnostics include a complete blood count and electrocardiogram. Breast ultrasound is required for all mammary procedures. During surgery, the team reduces thrombosis risk with compression measures that begin before the procedure starts.
International Patient Support
International patients receive coordination in Portuguese, English, and Spanish. The clinic provides clear pre- and post-operative instructions to help with travel and recovery planning. A dedicated physiotherapy team supports post-operative care. Surgeons stay available for direct questions throughout the healing period. Lymphatic drainage sessions are part of recovery plans to reduce swelling and speed tissue healing.
