When is an operation considered? According to the page, it is usually justified with a Body Mass Index (BMI) above 40, or above 35 when there are serious associated diseases, such as type 2 diabetes or hypertension. Sometimes it is evaluated with lower figures if other approaches have not worked. The doctor reviews the BMI, health status and weight history before recommending a path.
The clinic works with four techniques: sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, mini gastric bypass (MGB) and single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass (SADI-S). The choice is individual. In the price list, the sleeve gastrectomy is listed at $3,600 and the gastric bypass at $4,000; the consultation with the bariatric surgeon is free.
The programme is presented as a single package: room, meals, nursing care and a personal coordinator from the first day, with no subsequent additional costs. The preliminary studies, from laboratory tests to ultrasound and gastroscopy, are carried out at the same centre. The operations are laparoscopic, through four small incisions of 5 to 15 mm; afterwards, the patient remains under observation for 1 to 5 days, depending on the extent of the surgery. Office work can usually be resumed after 2 to 4 weeks and swimming is permitted after 30 days.
After the operation, a staged diet is followed for one or two months, from liquid to solid, and vitamin and mineral supplements become part of the daily routine.
To take the first step, simply leave your name and telephone number or write via messaging. A coordinator organises a free conversation of about 15 minutes with a surgeon, who indicates whether bariatric surgery is suitable and which method is appropriate. For hair transplants in Lima, the corresponding page shows prices from $2,200.
The same Peru page also gathers information on rhinoplasty and breast augmentation for patients in Lima. Rhinoplasty has a fixed price of $4,200, with a 3D visualisation of the expected result in the preliminary consultation. Breast augmentation with implants starts from $4,700 all-inclusive; the same section also includes breast lift with implants, from $5,400, and the removal of previously placed implants, from $3,300. For all four procedures, the first consultation with the plastic surgeon is free and without obligation, and the final price is fixed in writing in the contract before the operation, with no added costs afterwards.
Suitability for surgery is decided at the consultation; all interventions have contraindications. The coordinator responds in Spanish via WhatsApp, text message or call, with no cost for the initial conversation.
