He holds an RQE registration, the credential that identifies a recognized specialist qualification within the Brazilian medical system. This registration reflects the formal pathway required of surgeons who present themselves as facial specialists.

Dr. Rubez focuses his clinical work on facial rejuvenation, with particular attention to the deep plane facelift — a technique that repositions the deeper facial tissues rather than simply tightening the skin surface.

The deep plane facelift is a rhytidectomy (the medical term for a surgical facelift) performed beneath the SMAS, the layer of muscle and connective tissue that supports the face. This approach aims to restore natural contour rather than a pulled appearance.

His membership in the Sociedade Brasileira de Cirurgia Plástica connects him to the national body that represents plastic surgeons across Brazil. This affiliation places his practice within the country's recognized professional community.

Dr. Paolo Rubez has spoken publicly about his own long personal history with chronic migraine, a story he has shared as part of his journey into medicine and facial surgery. That candor has become part of how patients come to know him.

São Paulo is Brazil's largest city and a recognized hub for cosmetic surgery, drawing patients who value both technical training and aesthetic sensibility. Dr. Rubez practices within this demanding environment, where facial surgery holds a prominent cultural place.

His approach to facial aging emphasizes tissue repositioning — moving the deeper structures of the face back toward their youthful position — rather than surface tension alone. This philosophy is central to modern deep plane surgery.

Recovery is a subject Dr. Rubez addresses directly with prospective patients, since a deep plane facelift involves a healing period that unfolds over several months. Setting realistic expectations forms an important part of his consultations.

He maintains an active presence on Instagram under the handle @drpaolorubez, where he shares aspects of his work and practice. This visibility allows patients abroad to become familiar with his approach before traveling.

Dr. Rubez treats the face as an integrated whole, recognizing that rejuvenation depends on balance between the cheeks, jawline, and neck. This comprehensive view distinguishes deep plane surgery from more limited procedures.

His clinical focus on rejuvenation extends beyond a single operation to a broader philosophy of aging gracefully. Patients seeking natural results are the core of his practice in São Paulo.

With more than twelve years of experience, Dr. Paolo Rubez has developed his practice within a competitive city known for facial aesthetics. His combination of formal training and specialization positions him as an established option for patients considering the deep plane technique.

For women considering facial rejuvenation, understanding the surgeon behind the procedure matters as much as the technique itself. Dr. Rubez presents a profile grounded in Brazilian training, specialist registration, and a sustained focus on the aging face.

Where is Dr. Rubez located?

What is the recovery time for a deep plane facelift?
Recovery from a deep plane facelift typically involves 2-3 weeks of initial healing, with most visible bruising resolving within 7-10 days and sutures removed at days 7-10. International patients can generally travel home after 10-14 days once swelling has stabilised and wound checks are complete.

The deep plane technique repositions deeper facial tissues (including the SMAS-platysma composite and the released retaining ligaments) rather than simply tightening skin, which produces more natural, longer-lasting rejuvenation.
