Dr. Mora specializes in body contouring procedures including Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), liposuction with Lipo Vaser technology, tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), and mommy makeover combinations. He also performs breast surgery (augmentation, reduction, and lift), facial procedures (blepharoplasty, rhinoplasty), and male procedures (gynecomastia surgery).
The best way to determine the right procedure is through a consultation with Dr. Mora. For international patients, we offer comprehensive virtual evaluations where you submit photos and medical history, then have a video call to discuss your goals. Dr. Mora will recommend appropriate procedures based on your anatomy, health status, and desired outcomes.
Yes, virtual consultations are available and recommended for international patients. The process involves completing our online evaluation form, submitting required photos, and scheduling a WhatsApp video call with Dr. Mora. You'll receive a personalized surgical plan and transparent pricing within 48-72 hours of your consultation.
We accept cash (USD), major credit cards, and wire transfers. A deposit (typically $500-1000 or 25-50%) is required to secure your surgery date. The remaining balance is due before surgery. We do not offer in-house financing, but many patients use medical credit options like CareCredit or personal loans arranged in their home country.
During your consultation, Dr. Mora will review your medical history, examine your areas of concern (in-person or via photos for virtual consultations), discuss your goals, and explain your options. He uses visual diagrams and sizers (for breast procedures) to help you understand expected results. You'll receive a personalized surgical plan with transparent pricing.
Procedure times vary: Liposuction takes 1-4 hours depending on areas treated. BBL takes 3-5 hours. Tummy tuck takes 3-5 hours. Mommy makeover combinations take 4-6 hours. Breast surgery takes 1-3 hours. Facial procedures take 1-5 hours depending on scope. Dr. Mora will provide specific estimates during your consultation.
Recommended stays vary by procedure: BBL and tummy tuck require minimum 14-21 days. Mommy makeover requires 21 days minimum. Breast surgery only requires 10-14 days. Facial procedures require 10-14 days. Dr. Mora will not clear you to travel with drains in place, so your minimum stay ensures proper healing before departure.
All surgical patients must complete cardiac (heart) and pulmonary (lung) evaluations with Dominican specialists before surgery. You'll also need blood work performed locally within days of your procedure. These evaluations ensure your body can safely tolerate surgery and anesthesia. Even if you complete clearances at home, blood work is repeated in Santo Domingo.
Post-operative care includes: 24/7 nursing support at your recovery house, daily or every-other-day check-ins with Dr. Mora, lymphatic massage sessions (typically 5-10), hyperbaric oxygen chamber sessions (if recommended), wound care and dressing changes, medication management, and a final examination before travel clearance.
We work with partnered recovery houses that specialize in post-surgical care. These facilities provide private rooms, nursing staff, healthy meals, and transportation to follow-up appointments. Alternatively, some patients prefer hotels—we can recommend options close to the clinic, though a recovery house is strongly recommended for the first week.
Light activities (walking, self-care) can typically resume within days. Desk work can usually resume in 2-4 weeks depending on procedure. Light exercise in 4-6 weeks. Full exercise including core work in 6-8 weeks. Dr. Mora will provide specific guidelines based on your procedure and healing progress.
Dr. Mora provides WhatsApp support for all patients after returning home—indefinitely. For routine questions or concerns, you can message anytime and receive a response typically within hours. For anything concerning, he'll arrange a video call to assess. If in-person care is needed, he can coordinate with plastic surgeons in your area or arrange your return to Santo Domingo.
