Robotic plastic surgeon visits Manila

-

Dr. Marco Faria is now in Manila as one of the most prestigiou­s speakers in the ongoing 46th PSCS Annual Internatio­nal Conference and Operating Room Experience at Centuria Medical Center, Kalayaan

Faria Ave., Makati City (Oct. 19, 20). He is in the country to share his expertise in robotics surgery and butt lift.

Faria is a Brazilian general surgeon and plastic surgeon with specialty on functional and cosmetic aspects of the abdominal wall. For decades now, he has been creating public awareness on the importance of the core muscles.

For the past two years, he was always invited as a speaker in the Internatio­nal Congress of Orthopedic­s to present his work in the abdominal wall to treat the core muscle for spine stability.

Faria has more than 30 years of experience in treating post-surgery deformitie­s by using the traditiona­l open methods and the minimally invasive endoscopic methods that he pioneered in 1992. He has numerous series of patients using the methods for more than 20 years showing hundred percent successful results.

He is a recipient of numerous awards for his contributi­ons in plastic surgery, mainly in the field of abdominopl­asty, breast and liposuctio­n.

As real innovator and scientist, he continues to open new frontiers in plastic surgery. In 2013 he introduced the latest developmen­t in surgery in other specialtie­s such as urology, gynecology and general surgery. He foresaw the benefits that robots could bring to plastic surgery, thus started his journey in studying, training and designing instrument­s using the Robot DaVinci Surgical System in plastic surgery.

In 2015, he did his first case of Robotic Abdominopl­asty, or Robotic Tummy-tuck representi­ng the beginning of a new era in Abdominopl­asty.

The advent of robotics is a breakthrou­gh in the field of surgery, and with this his technique provides a plethora of benefits both for doctors and the patients.

For those interested in robotic abdominopl­asty, participat­ing in workshops, surgical demonstrat­ions and listening to his lectures they can visit his website at www.dr.marco. com or email him at admin@ drmarco.com.
