Dr. Paulo Henrique Laia في Deep Plane Facelift

Dr. Paulo Henrique Laia is a single-specialty plastic surgery practice based in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. The clinic focuses on aesthetic and reconstructive procedures for the face, breasts, and body contour. Operations are performed at Premier Hospital Dia, a facility with defined safety protocols.

Credentials and Training

The practice is led by Dr. Paulo Henrique Laia, a plastic surgeon who completed his residency in 2013. He is a Full Member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP) – the highest membership category in the society.

Dr. Laia trained at the Clinical Hospital of the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG). He later served as a preceptor for the plastic surgery residency there. The clinic holds ISAPS and TEMOS certifications.

Facial and Breast Procedures

The clinic specializes in advanced facial rejuvenation. These techniques target deep tissue layers for natural results without excessive skin tension:

• Deep Plane Facelift – repositions deep tissues below the SMAS layer
• Deep Neck Lift – treats skin, muscle, and deep fat for neck contouring
• Mini Facelift – a less invasive option for patients with mild facial laxity
• Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty – nose reshaping that can also correct a deviated septum
• Brow Lift – repositions the eyebrows and forehead tissues

For breast surgery, the practice offers several augmentation and reduction methods. Dr. Laia uses Técnica Preservé for breast augmentation. This Motiva-developed approach creates implant space while protecting internal breast anatomy and muscle.

Body Contouring Technologies

Body contouring often combines liposuction with energy-based technologies. These tools treat fat and improve skin firmness. The clinic uses the following platforms:

• Vaser – ultrasound technology that emulsifies fat before removal
• Argoplasma – argon gas plasma that creates a thermal effect for skin tightening
• BodyTite and FaceTite – bipolar radiofrequency for tissue tightening
• Morpheus – fractional radiofrequency micro-needling to improve skin texture

These technologies are often part of lipoabdominoplasty procedures. This combined surgery addresses both localized fat and excess skin in a single session.

Diagnostic Capabilities

The clinic provides nasal endoscopy as a primary diagnostic tool. This helps evaluate internal nasal structures before functional or aesthetic nose surgery. These evaluations confirm that surgery won't impair breathing.

Services for International Patients

Online consultations are available as a first step for patients outside Belo Horizonte. This allows preliminary planning before travel. Post-operative care includes ongoing monitoring and recovery guidance throughout healing.
