He graduated from the University of Manizales and completed advanced training in phlebology. The medical team also includes specialists Dr. Estefanía Arias and Dr. David Echeverri.

Body Contouring and Liposuction

The clinic offers several body shaping methods to remove fat and tighten tissue. Surgeons use advanced liposuction technologies to target the stomach, back, arms, and thighs. These methods reduce swelling and improve skin retraction during recovery. Available techniques include:

• Vibroliposuction (PAL)
• Ultrasonic Liposuction
• Radiofrequency-Assisted Liposuction (RFAL)
• Laser Lipolysis
• Body Jet liposuction

Patients getting a tummy tuck receive personalized care focused on muscle repair and skin removal. The surgeon uses specific tension points to create a smooth abdominal contour. Post-operative care includes wearing a compression garment daily and following a low-sodium diet. Final results typically appear six to twelve months after surgery.

Facial Rejuvenation and Breast Surgery

Facial procedures range from non-surgical injections to complex structural lifting. Specialists perform Deep Plane and endoscopic facelifts to address sagging skin with smaller incisions. The practice also offers rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, and jaw shaping. For non-invasive options, the clinic provides Ultherapy and Thermage skin tightening treatments.

Breast surgery options include augmentation, mastopexy, and reconstructive procedures. Dr. Diego Franco performs augmentation using both implants and fat transfer. The clinic also treats specialized cases such as areola reduction and breast capsulectomy. Every plan is customized based on the patient's anatomy and goals.

Specialized Mommy Makeover Plans

The Mommy Makeover addresses post-pregnancy changes in a single surgical session. This combination treatment typically lasts four to five hours. It is tailored to each patient but frequently includes:

• Tummy tuck to repair abdominal muscles
• Liposuction to redefine the waistline
• Breast lift to restore firmness
• Breast augmentation to restore lost volume

This approach lets patients undergo multiple corrections at once. The medical team provides continuity of care from evaluation through long-term recovery.

International Patient Services

The clinic supports patients traveling from abroad for surgery. Staff members provide bilingual support throughout the care process. Patients can access preoperative guidance and postoperative instructions in English. The team also helps monitor surgical drain sites and manage recovery after patients return home.
