About

Twenty-three years of surgical practice in Rio de Janeiro define the career of Dr. Alexandre Charão, a plastic surgeon who focuses on facial rejuvenation and the deep plane facelift. As of July 2026, he continues to practice at PlasticRio Clinic in one of Brazil's most celebrated coastal cities.

Dr. Alexandre Charão is a plastic surgeon based in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, who is listed as board-certified by the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP). He is recognized for his work in facial rejuvenation, deep plane facelift surgery, and broader plastic surgery.

Read more ▾

His practice spans more than two decades, a span of experience that places him among the more established surgeons working in facial aesthetics in his region. Longevity of this kind reflects sustained clinical activity across many surgical cases.

Dr. Charão holds membership in the Brazilian Association of Plastic Surgeons, an affiliation that signals ongoing engagement with the professional standards of his field. Such memberships often require adherence to continuing education and ethical guidelines.

The deep plane facelift represents one of the more advanced approaches to facial rejuvenation. Unlike more superficial techniques, it works beneath the muscular layer of the face to reposition tissue in a way that aims for natural-looking, durable results.

Dr. Charão's stated specialties center on facial rejuvenation and the correction of facial aging. This focus complements a wider surgical practice that has historically included body contouring, breast surgery, and other aesthetic procedures.

His clinic, PlasticRio, operates in Rio de Janeiro and has served both domestic and visiting patients over the years. The practice presents patient education materials covering surgical preparation, recovery, and postoperative care.

Rio de Janeiro itself carries a distinct identity — a sun-drenched Atlantic city where aesthetics and self-presentation hold cultural weight. Brazil has long been associated with plastic surgery innovation, and Rio sits at the heart of that tradition.

Dr. Charão's approach emphasizes patient education before any procedure. His practice materials underline the importance of understanding both the benefits and the realistic limits of surgical rejuvenation.

Recovery is a central theme in how the deep plane facelift is discussed. Because the technique addresses deeper tissue layers, healing timelines and postoperative guidance are treated as essential parts of the surgical journey.

The SMAS (the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a layer of tissue and muscle beneath the skin) is the anatomical foundation of modern facelift surgery. Deep plane techniques work with this layer directly rather than simply tightening the skin above it.

Dr. Charão's long tenure in Rio de Janeiro reflects a career built within a single, competitive medical community. Establishing and sustaining a practice over 23 years suggests a consistent surgical presence.

Facial rejuvenation, in his framing, is less about dramatic transformation and more about restoring natural contour and youthful proportion. This philosophy aligns with the goals of the deep plane approach, which prioritizes harmony over tension.

Patients considering surgery with Dr. Alexandre Charão typically encounter a structured consultation process, detailed preoperative guidance, and a clinic accustomed to explaining complex procedures in accessible terms.

For women considering facial rejuvenation in their fifties and sixties, Dr. Charão offers the combination that many seek: substantial surgical experience, board affiliation, and a practice rooted in one of the world's most recognized centers for aesthetic surgery.

Há cerca de um ano e meio fiz a minha cirurgia com o Dr.Charão, e posso afirmar que foi a melhor decisão que tomei. O Dr.Charão foi excepcional em todos os aspectos. Além de transmitir muita segurança, conhecimento, paciência e confiança desde a primeira consulta online, realizou um trabalho impecável. O resultado ficou extremamente natural e bonito, superando todas as minhas expectativas. Também gostaria de elogiar toda a equipe que o acompanha e recomendada por ele. Os profissionais de enfermagem, anestesista, fisioterapia, estética (drenagens linfáticas), financeiro, e todas as pessoas envolvidas no meu atendimento e recuperação foram sempre muito atenciosas, acolhedoras, eficientes e disponíveis. Durante todo o processo — do pré-operatório à recuperação — minhas dúvidas eram respondidas rapidamente, e eu sempre me senti muito bem cuidada e acolhida. A excelência do atendimento vai muito além da cirurgia em si. É um cuidado completo, com profissionais extremamente competentes e humanos, que fazem toda a diferença na experiência do paciente. Sou imensamente e eternamente grata ao Dr.Charão e à sua equipe e os recomendo sem a menor hesitação. Muito obrigada!

Depois de passar por consulta com outros três cirurgiões plásticos, escolhi o Dr. Alexandre Charão porque encontrei algo que procurava e ainda não havia sentido: acolhimento, segurança e confiança. Tenho síndrome do pânico e precisava de um médico que, além da competência técnica, me transmitisse proteção. O currículo, a experiência e o olhar humano dele foram decisivos. O pré-operatório foi extremamente cuidadoso, com várias consultas e todos os detalhes explicados. No pós-operatório, o acompanhamento é impecável: além do grupo de suporte, o próprio doutor responde às dúvidas com rapidez, fazendo com que a paciente nunca se sinta sozinha. Realizei lipoaspiração com Argoplasma e próteses de silicone pela técnica Motiva Preserve. A recuperação me surpreendeu: no próprio dia da cirurgia eu já conseguia escovar os dentes, pentear os cabelos e levantar os braços, além de não achar cicatrizes em mim. Fiquei procurando os cortes e estão mínimos! Hoje completo 16 dias de cirurgia e já estou praticamente retomando minhas atividades. Mais do que um excelente resultado, encontrei um cirurgião extremamente competente, atualizado, cuidadoso e humano. Escolheria o Dr. Alexandre Charão novamente, sem pensar duas vezes. Recomendo com total confiança.Sabe aquela sensação que você encontrou um médico que está na profissão certa? Que entendeu que dinheiro é meio de vida e não finalidade de vida? Sorte a minha de ter feito a escolha certa! Obrigada a toda a dedicada equipe do Dr. Charão. Suellen , Gleicy, Marília , Damires e Carolzinha merecem um capítulo a parte de elogios pq elas são realmente incríveis! Moraram em minha casa esses dias. Obrigada a todos e parabéns!

O Dr. Alexandre faz um excelente atendimento. Tirou todas as minhas dúvidas e me deixou segura em relação ao procedimento. Também não posso deixar de falar de sua assistente, que foi muito atenciosa comigo. Além disso, o Crisalix tem uma contribuição importante no atendimento, pois pude ver, em 3D, uma boa projeção do resultado do procedimento futuro. Recomendo muitíssimo! 😍

Visit the official clinic website for the full street address, parking details, and directions from the nearest international airport.

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.
