Dr. Delane Cavalcante is a private plastic surgery practice in the Ipanema district of Rio de Janeiro. It is a specialized single-doctor clinic for aesthetic and reconstructive body procedures. Dr. Delane Cavalcante founded the practice and leads a medical team of two specialists. Their work centers on body contouring and breast surgery.
Experience and Accreditations
Surgical experience is the practice's main strength. Dr. Delane Cavalcante reports performing over 3,000 surgeries during her career in the field. The clinic holds both international and national certifications. These come from TEMOS and the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP). Dr. Adelane Cavalcante is a full member of the SBCP.
Body Contouring and Abdominoplasty
Plastic surgery is the practice's primary specialty, with a strong focus on abdominal sculpting. The clinic treats excess skin, abdominal diastasis (separated muscles), and localized fat deposits. Dr. Delane Cavalcante developed the “abdome biquíni de lacinho” technique for tummy tucks. It keeps scars less visible and creates a natural-looking navel.
Several surgical options are available for the midsection:
- Abdominoplasty: A traditional tummy tuck to remove skin and repair muscles.
- Lipoabdominoplasty: Combines a tummy tuck with liposuction to refine the silhouette.
- Mini-abdominoplasty: A smaller procedure for patients with only slightly loose skin.
- Lipo LAD: High-definition liposuction. Surgeons use fine cannulas to sculpt fat around the muscles.
- Panniculectomy: Surgical removal of hanging skin after major weight loss.
Safety starts before the operation. Every patient has a medical evaluation before surgery. This assessment checks general health and helps set realistic aesthetic goals. Patients must stop smoking at least 30 days before any procedure. They should also avoid stimulants and certain herbal medicines for 20 days, since this lowers bleeding risk.
Breast and Reconstructive Procedures
The practice offers aesthetic breast surgery to add volume or lift the breasts. Specialists perform mastopexy, also known as a breast lift, to correct sagging. Surgeons can do it alone or combine it with silicone implants for more fullness. The clinic treats gynecomastia (enlarged male breast tissue) as well. For complex breast cases, DIEP flap reconstruction is available.
Beyond abdominal and breast work, the clinic offers specialized intimate surgeries. These include labiaplasty to correct asymmetry, as well as gluteal remodeling. For fat grafting glútea, surgeons use the patient's own fat. This improves the volume and shape of the buttocks. The practice also performs open rhinoplasty to reshape the nose and neck liposuction to refine the profile.
Specialized Recovery Technologies
Post-operative care is part of every treatment plan, so healing stays on track. After surgery, the clinic uses low-power laser technology to support the lymphatic system. This laser therapy reduces swelling and helps tissue repair itself. From the fourth day after the procedure, specialists apply lymphatic tappings.
Recovery from abdominal surgery follows a set plan over several months. Initial healing is quick, but final results usually show after 12 to 18 months. The medical team explains what surgical drains do and when it is safe to shower. This close follow-up aims for natural results and discreet scarring. Patient testimonials often point to both.
International Patient Services
Patients come to the practice from around the world. Documentation and consultation materials are available in English, Portuguese, and Spanish.
International patients often have fixed timelines. That's why the clinic gives clear guidance on pre-operative requirements and the long-term healing process.
