Plastic Surgeon in Brazil — Dr. Walter Zamarian Jr.

I recommend verifying that the surgeon is a Full Member of the SBCP (Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery), as this credential ensures complete training: 6 years of medical school, 2 years of general surgery residency, and 3 years of plastic surgery specialization. Additionally, check the CRM website to confirm that the doctor holds the RQE (Specialist Qualification Registration) in plastic surgery.

I am a Full Member of the SBCP and also of the ASPS (American Society of Plastic Surgeons), with training from the Ivo Pitanguy School and additional training in the United States. My CRM-PR is 17,388 and my RQE is 15,688 -- you can verify this information at any time on the website of the Regional Council of Medicine of Parana.

My practice focuses on procedures I have mastered through specific training at leading centers worldwide. For the face: Deep Plane facelift with fat grafting, blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), structural rhinoplasty, submental (double chin) liposuction, and otoplasty. For the body: female intimate surgery, including labiaplasty using the Wedge technique, for which I trained directly under Dr. Gary Alter, the creator of the technique.

I prefer to perform a select number of procedures with mastery rather than many superficially. This specialization allows me to deliver consistent, predictable results in every area of my practice.

My consultation is thorough and lasts an average of 40 minutes -- quite different from quick 10-minute appointments. During this time, I perform a complete assessment of your face or body, review your medical history, discuss your goals with full transparency, and, when applicable, run a computer simulation of the expected outcome.

I recommend bringing recent test results, a list of your current medications, and any questions you may have written down. Please arrive without makeup so I can properly evaluate your skin. At the end of the consultation, you will leave with a personalized surgical plan and a detailed estimate, with no hidden fees.

My initial consultation fee is $140. For patients who have already had procedures at our office, the fee for a new evaluation is $70. This investment reflects the depth of the assessment: I dedicate an average of 40 minutes exclusively to you, including a complete physical examination, analysis of proportions, and, in many cases, a digital simulation of the expected result.

I consider the consultation the most important step in the entire surgical process because it is where we build together the plan that will guide your outcome. A thorough consultation avoids surprises and ensures that your expectations are aligned with what the surgery can realistically achieve.

Yes, I regularly welcome patients from all over Brazil and abroad. Approximately 40% of my patients travel from other cities, including Sao Paulo, Curitiba, Maringa, and Cascavel, and from countries such as the United States, Portugal, and Japan. Medical tourism in Brazil for cosmetic surgery has grown significantly, and many international patients choose my practice in Londrina, Brazil for the combination of world-class results and personalized care. For those traveling from afar, I offer virtual video consultations as the initial evaluation, allowing me to understand your case and assess the feasibility of the procedure before you travel.

My team also coordinates all logistics for out-of-town patients: hotel recommendations near the office, transportation guidance from the airport, and specialized follow-up care for those who need to stay in Londrina during the initial recovery period.

I offer several payment options for your convenience:

• Payment in full: Cash, PIX, or wire transfer
• Debit card: All major networks
• Credit card: Up to 10 interest-free installments (Visa, Mastercard, Elo, American Express)
• Cryptocurrency: Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT, or USDC

A detailed estimate, including all costs (surgeon's fee, surgical team, anesthesia, hospital stay, and materials), is provided during the consultation. There are no hidden fees or surprises.

Yes, safety is my top priority. All my surgeries are performed at Hospital do Coracao (Heart Hospital), which holds certification from Anvisa (Brazil's health regulatory agency), features state-of-the-art monitoring equipment, board-certified anesthesiologists specialized in plastic surgery, an ICU, and full capacity to manage any complication.

Additionally, all my patients undergo a thorough pre-operative workup including lab tests and pre-operative cardiac clearance (EKG), ensuring they are medically cleared for surgery. I operate exclusively in a hospital setting because I believe patient safety should never be compromised.

Recovery time varies by procedure. I use modern protocols that accelerate healing and minimize discomfort. In general: the Deep Plane facelift requires 14 to 21 days of social downtime; rhinoplasty, 7 to 14 days with a nasal splint; blepharoplasty, 7 to 10 days; and intimate surgery, 7 to 14 days with 45 days of pelvic rest.

I personally oversee every phase of your recovery, with follow-up appointments included and direct access to me via WhatsApp for any questions. My team also provides guidance on lymphatic drainage massage and specific care instructions to optimize your results.

It depends on the procedure. The Deep Plane facelift, for example, delivers results that last 10 to 15 years -- significantly longer than superficial techniques. Structural rhinoplasty and intimate surgery produce results that are considered permanent. However, blepharoplasty may require a revision after 10 to 15 years, depending on the natural aging of the skin.

It is important to understand that no surgery stops the aging process, but the outcome places you at a different baseline: you will always look better than you would have without surgery. During the consultation, I clearly explain what to expect in the short and long term for each procedure.
