Breast reduction in Fernando Bianco – plastic surgeon

Fernando Bianco – plastic surgeon is a private practice established in 2024 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The clinic operates across two locations in Barra da Tijuca and Nova Iguaçu. It specializes in aesthetic breast surgery and high-definition body contouring.

Accreditations and Professional Standings

The clinic holds several international and national certifications:

• TEMOS international accreditation
• Sociedade Brasileira de Cirurgia Plástica (SBCP)
• International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS)
• American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS)

Lead surgeon Dr. Fernando Bianco is a Membro Titular of the SBCP – the highest membership category within the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery. He also presents surgical techniques at international events like the Global Plastic Surgery Congress in Buenos Aires.

Specialized Breast and Body Procedures

The clinic is a primary center for the R24R Rapid Recovery protocol for breast augmentation. This approach allows some patients to return to light activities and driving within 24 hours. Precise tissue handling minimizes immediate postoperative pain and swelling.

For patients needing a breast lift, surgeons perform mastopexy using internal muscular sling support. They often use absorbable mesh for long-term structural reinforcement. This helps maintain the lifted shape for years after the procedure.

Body sculpting involves high-definition techniques to enhance muscle visibility. The surgical team performs several specialized contouring procedures:

• Lipo HD (High Definition) to sculpt abdominal and waist contours
• Abdominoplasty using surgical glue for smooth incision closure
• Gynecomastia (male breast reduction) for glandular or fatty excess
• Arm liposuction to remove localized fat and define the upper body

Gynecomastia correction uses small incisions between 1 and 4 cm. These are placed in hidden areas like the armpit or nipple edge. Most patients see 80% of their final body shape within 2 months.

Advanced Surgical Technologies

The clinic uses energy-based devices to treat skin laxity and improve surgical results. These technologies tighten tissue without large external incisions.

• Vaser Lipo: Uses ultrasound energy to break down fat cells while sparing connective tissue.
• BodyTite: An FDA-approved radiofrequency system that monitors tissue temperature for safe skin tightening.
• Renuvion: Delivers helium plasma energy to contract the skin after fat removal.
• Morpheus 8: Uses bipolar radiofrequency and microneedling to remodel the skin and fatty layers.

These platforms are often combined with liposuction. This helps the skin adhere smoothly to new muscle contours. Surgeons select specific technologies based on the patient's skin thickness and elasticity.

Services for International Patients

The clinic manages a personalized workflow for patients traveling from outside Brazil. The journey begins with a detailed preoperative evaluation. This includes metabolic testing and body composition analysis.

A multidisciplinary team provides nutritional guidance before and after the procedure. For those undergoing the R24R breast protocol, the clinic provides specific rehabilitation exercises. Surgeons also offer detailed scar-care planning, including guidance on long-term maturation – typically 12 to 18 months.
