Aesthetic Plastic Surgery in Spain at Face Clinic

Specialised unit in aesthetic plastic surgery, facial surgery, breast surgery, body surgery, female intimate surgery and reconstructive surgery, with individual medical assessment and an approach focused on safety, natural results and realistic planning.

Aesthetic, plastic and reconstructive surgery unit

A medical specialty to improve shape, function and proportion

Plastic surgery is a medical specialty that can reconstruct, restore or modify structures of the face and body. It includes aesthetic surgery, aimed at improving appearance and facial or body harmony, and reconstructive surgery, aimed at correcting sequelae, injuries, malformations or functional alterations.

At Face Clinic, each case is assessed individually to determine whether surgery is appropriate, which technique may offer a more natural result and which expectations are reasonable according to the patient’s anatomy, medical history and objectives.

This page brings together the main areas of the unit: facial surgery, breast surgery, body surgery, female intimate surgery and reconstructive surgery, as well as frequently asked questions about what aesthetic surgery means and how it differs from aesthetic medicine.

Our surgical approach

How our aesthetic plastic surgery team works

Aesthetic surgery should not be approached as an isolated intervention, but as a medical process: diagnosis, indication, planning, safety, surgery and follow-up. This is the approach we follow at Face Clinic.

01

Medical assessment

We analyse anatomy, medical history, expectations, skin quality, proportions and possible limitations before indicating any treatment.

02

Realistic expectations

We explain what surgery can improve, what should not be promised and what outcome is reasonable for each patient.

03

Personalised surgical plan

We choose the technique according to anatomy, medical objective and safety, avoiding standardised approaches.

04

Surgical safety

We indicate the appropriate setting for each procedure: consultation, in-house operating theatre or hospital centre.

05

Natural result

We seek to improve proportions and harmony, avoiding artificial changes or results that are inconsistent with the patient.

06

Medical follow-up

We monitor postoperative progress, recovery, healing and any questions that may arise.

Aesthetic surgery and plastic surgery

What is considered aesthetic surgery?

Aesthetic surgery refers to any surgical procedure whose main objective is to improve the appearance, proportion or harmony of an area of the face or body. It may include facial, breast or body procedures such as blepharoplasty, rhinoplasty, facelift, breast augmentation, mastopexy, liposuction or abdominoplasty.

Plastic surgery, on the other hand, is the broader medical field. It includes both aesthetic surgery and reconstructive or reparative surgery. For this reason, although many people use both terms as synonyms, they do not mean exactly the same thing.

Aesthetic surgery Improves proportion, shape, volume, contour or visible signs of ageing.
Reconstructive plastic surgery Corrects sequelae, injuries, scars, congenital defects or alterations after trauma or tumours.
Aesthetic medicine Uses non-surgical or minimally invasive procedures to improve skin, volume or facial ageing.
Individual assessment Helps decide whether surgery, aesthetic medicine, a combined treatment or follow-up is more appropriate.

What does aesthetic surgery mean?
It means surgery aimed at improving a facial or body feature that creates disproportion, ageing, sagging, excess volume, lack of volume or a specific aesthetic alteration. The indication should always be made after medical assessment.

Budget

Aesthetic surgery price

The price depends on the procedure, complexity, anaesthesia, surgical centre, materials and follow-up.

Safety, indication and planning

Aesthetic surgery should be performed with medical criteria, not only aesthetic criteria

Any surgical procedure involves risks. For this reason, at Face Clinic we prioritise the appropriate indication, selection of the surgical setting, preoperative information, anaesthetic assessment when required and postoperative follow-up.

The objective is not to operate more, but to indicate better. In some patients, a non-surgical treatment, a combined approach or postponing surgery until better medical conditions are available may be more appropriate.

Appropriate setting Selection of the surgical environment according to the type of procedure, anaesthesia and complexity.
Realistic expectations Clear information about possibilities, limits, recovery and risks.
Postoperative follow-up Medical checks to assess healing, progress and recovery.
Clinical process

How we assess aesthetic plastic surgery

Each procedure requires its own process, but the initial assessment must follow a clear medical methodology to decide whether the treatment is appropriate and safe.

Phase 01 First medical consultation

Review of medical history, reason for consultation, examination, expectations, clinical photographs when appropriate and assessment of the area to be treated.

Phase 02 Indication and alternatives

We explain whether surgery is indicated, what alternatives exist and when a non-surgical or combined treatment may be preferable.

Phase 03 Surgical plan and budget

The technique, type of anaesthesia, surgical centre, estimated recovery, follow-up checks, risks and personalised budget are detailed.

Phase 04 Surgery and follow-up

After the procedure, reviews are carried out to assess healing, progress, comfort, progressive results and recovery.

Price and financing

How much aesthetic surgery costs in Spain

The price of aesthetic surgery in Spain varies depending on the type of procedure, case complexity, technique used, type of anaesthesia, surgical centre, need for implants or specific materials and postoperative follow-up.

For this reason, at Face Clinic we do not recommend making decisions based only on price. Medical assessment makes it possible to know whether the procedure is indicated, what alternatives exist and what the real budget for the case is.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about aesthetic plastic surgery

These answers are for guidance only. Each case should be assessed by a specialist before indicating treatment, surgery or a budget.

What is the difference between aesthetic surgery and plastic surgery?
Plastic surgery is the medical specialty that includes aesthetic and reconstructive procedures. Aesthetic surgery is part of plastic surgery and focuses on improving the appearance, proportion or harmony of an area of the face or body. Reconstructive surgery, by contrast, aims to correct sequelae, injuries, malformations or functional alterations.
What is the difference between cosmetic surgery and plastic surgery?
Although they are often used as synonyms, they are not exactly the same. Cosmetic or aesthetic surgery aims to improve physical appearance; plastic surgery is a broader field that also includes reconstructive or reparative surgery. At Face Clinic, we assess whether the patient’s objective requires aesthetic surgery, reconstructive surgery, aesthetic medicine or a combined treatment.
What is the difference between aesthetic medicine and aesthetic surgery?
Aesthetic medicine uses non-surgical or minimally invasive treatments, such as injectables, lasers or skin quality treatments. Aesthetic surgery involves a surgical procedure, usually with anaesthesia and a recovery period. The choice depends on anatomy, the degree of correction required, objectives and medical assessment.
What types of aesthetic surgery are there?
There are different types of aesthetic surgery: facial surgery, such as blepharoplasty, rhinoplasty or facelift; breast surgery, such as augmentation, mastopexy or breast reduction; body surgery, such as liposuction or abdominoplasty; and female intimate surgery, such as labiaplasty or labia majora surgery. Each procedure requires an individual assessment.
What is considered aesthetic surgery?
Aesthetic surgery includes any surgical procedure whose main objective is to improve the appearance, proportion, volume, shape or harmony of a body or facial area. It may address changes associated with ageing, weight changes, pregnancy, asymmetries or features that the patient wishes to modify.
How much does aesthetic surgery cost at Face Clinic?
The price depends on the type of surgery, case complexity, indicated technique, type of anaesthesia, surgical centre, need for specific materials and required follow-up. After the medical assessment, a personalised quote is provided and financing options can be discussed.
