Plastic surgery (Dr. Gustavo R. Moreno)

Arte Cirúrgica is a private plastic surgery practice in Brazil. The clinic has branches in Brasília and Rio de Janeiro. It provides aesthetic and reconstructive surgery under Dr. Gustavo R. Moreno. The team focuses on natural results by balancing medical science with an artistic approach to facial and body harmony.

Safety Standards and Accreditations

The clinic follows a strict safety policy for major operations. Medium and large surgeries take place only in full-service hospitals. In Brasília, procedures happen at Hospital DF-Star. This facility provides advanced infrastructure for surgical care:

• Fully equipped operating center
• Intensive Care Unit (ICU)
• 24-hour medical staffing and specialized nursing
• Advanced sterilization standards

Dr. Gustavo R. Moreno is a member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery. He also meets the professional requirements of the Federal Council of Medicine. The clinic provides detailed materials on healing timelines and surgical risks.

Aesthetic and Reconstructive Specialties

The clinic offers a broad range of surgical options for the face and body. Specialists use video-endoscopic techniques for facial rejuvenation. This method lifts the face without traditional large incisions. Key procedures include:

• Facial lifting (classic, endoscopic, and mixed variants)
• Rhinoplasty and blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery)
• Abdominoplasty and liposuction using VASER technology
• Breast augmentation, reduction, and mastopexy
• Treatment for gynecomastia (male breast reduction)

Reconstructive surgery is a major focus of the practice. Dr. Moreno manages complex cases including skin tumor removals and thoracic reconstructions. The team also treats major tissue loss from trauma or pressure ulcers.

For patients with keloid or hypertrophic scars, the clinic combines surgical and clinical treatments. These include corticosteroid injections and post-surgery betatherapy radiation to prevent scar regrowth.

Advanced Surgical Techniques

Arte Cirúrgica offers breast augmentation with fat transfer. This procedure uses the patient's own fat harvested via liposuction. Surgeons inject the fat through inter-crossed tunnels. This gives a natural alternative to silicone implants.

For male patients, the clinic performs pectoral augmentation using FDA-approved soft silicone implants. Surgeons typically use a transaxillary incision to place the implants. This hides scars within the armpit area. The implants stay stationary and don't interfere with natural muscle movement.
