Your rejuvenation journey made simple

consulta lifting Barcelona

We understand that traveling for facial surgery might seem complicated, but we have simplified this process to make it as comfortable and straightforward as possible.

Our team will guide you every step of the way, from your initial consultation to your return home.

What are the next steps if you are an out of town patient?

1. Online initial consultation

Your journey toward natural facial rejuvenation begins with an online consultation:

  • Preliminary evaluation: We’ll ask you to send standardized photographs (front, profile, and three-quarters) for Dr. Mazarro to perform an initial assessment.
  • Personalized video conference: You’ll have a virtual consultation directly with Dr. Mazarro, where you can discuss your goals and concerns. Together you will design a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
  • Detailed quote: We’ll provide you with a clear budget that includes all costs associated with your procedure.
2. Planning your trip

Once you decide to proceed, our coordination team will help you organize all aspects of your visit:

  • Flexible dates: We’ll work with you to find dates that fit your schedule and availability.
  • Accommodation recommendations: We’ll provide options for hotels near the clinic, with special rates for our patients.
  • Transportation: Information on how to get from the airport to your accommodation and the clinic.
  • Preoperative evaluation: We will help you coordinate any required preoperative tests.

Once you schedule your surgery, we recommend a quick one-day visit to Barcelona to meet Dr. Mazarro in person. In this comprehensive in-person consultation you will be able to discuss any concerns, and review your customized Deep Plane Facelift plan in detail.

Many international patients find this visit invaluable for their peace of mind, and we always appreciate the chance to meet you face-to-face ahead of the surgery.

3. Your stay in Barcelona

Before Surgery

In-person consultation: The day before surgery, you’ll have an in-person consultation with Dr. Mazarro to address any final questions.

Surgery Day

  • Hospital Stay: Your Deep Plane Facelift surgery includes an overnight stay at the clinic.
  • Dedicated Nursing Care: During your overnight stay, you’ll have a dedicated nurse available to attend to all your needs, monitor your recovery, and ensure your comfort.
  • Accommodation for Companions: If you travel with a companion, we’ll arrange a comfortable bed in your room so they can stay with you overnight, providing additional emotional support during this important time.

After Surgery

  • Next Morning Visit: Dr. Mazarro will personally visit you the morning after surgery to remove your bandages, assess your initial recovery, and provide detailed instructions for the coming days.
  • Comprehensive Follow-up: Throughout your stay in Barcelona, Dr. Mazarro will perform periodic check-ups to monitor your healing process and address any concerns.
  • 24/7 Support: Our team remains available around the clock to answer questions and provide assistance during your recovery period in Barcelona.
4. Your return home

Your return journey will depend on your mode of transportation, as we have specific recommendations to ensure optimal healing:

For Patients Traveling by Air
If you need to take a flight back home, we recommend staying in Barcelona for at least 10 days after surgery.

During this extended stay, we’ll ensure you have all necessary follow-up appointments and provide recommendations for comfortable activities in Barcelona suitable for your recovery phase.

For Patients Traveling by Car, Train, or Boat
If you can return home by ground or sea transportation, you may leave Barcelona as early as 48 hours after surgery.

In this case we will schedule an in-person follow-up appointment at our clinic around day 10 for suture removal.

Ongoing Follow-up Care
Once you’re back home, we’ll maintain your care through scheduled video consultations to monitor your healing process

While video consultations are convenient and effective, we always recommend scheduling at least one in-person follow-up visit between 3-6 months post-surgery if your previous check-ups were conducted remotely.

This visit allows Dr. Mazarro to evaluate your final results in person and address any remaining concerns.

We value the opportunity to see your transformation in person and celebrate your results together, regardless of where you call home.

    Frequently Asked Questions about traveling to Barcelona for a facelift

    Is it worth traveling for a facelift?

    Yes — it is worth traveling for a facelift, especially when the procedure involves a technically demanding surgery such as a Deep Plane facelift.

    Unlike many other aesthetic treatments, facelift outcomes depend heavily on the surgeon’s experience and specific expertise in facial surgery.

    Many patients choose to travel to be treated by a facelift specialist, even if that means going to another city or country.

    The reason is simple: a facelift is usually performed once in a lifetime (sometimes twice), and choosing the right surgeon directly affects the qualityof the result, the safety of the procedure, and the longevity of the rejuvenation.

    Traveling for surgery may require more planning, but for many patients it brings reassurance and confidence in their decision.

    How can I book an online consultation for a facelift in Barcelona?

    We offer a preliminary assessment based on photographs and a video consultation with Dr. Mazarro. This way you will know if you are a good candidate and receive a treatment plan and quote before traveling.

    How long should I stay in Barcelona after a Deep Plane Facelift?

    We recommend staying in Barcelona for at least 10 days if you plan to travel back by plane. If you return by train, car, or boat, you can leave after 48 hours and come back on day 10 for suture removal.

    Is it possible to go through the whole process without traveling frequently to Barcelona?

    Yes. We can coordinate evaluation, consultations, and follow-ups online, although we always recommend at least one in-person visit before surgery if possible, and the day-10 control for suture removal./p>

    What does hospitalization include after a Deep Plane Facelift in Barcelona?

    Your procedure includes one night of hospitalization, 24/7 nursing care, and the possibility for your companion to stay with you in the room.

    When can I fly after a facelift in Barcelona?

    It is not safe to fly immediately after surgery. We recommend waiting at least 10 days before taking a flight following a Deep Plane Facelift. However, this does not mean you must remain in Barcelona for all those days: you can travel home by car, train, or boat and recover comfortably there.

    Where can I stay in Barcelona after a facelift?

    We will provide you with a list of hotels and apartments near the clinic to make your stay and that of your companions comfortable and convenient.

    How are follow-ups organized if I don’t live in Barcelona?

    Dr. Mazarro will see you during your stay, and once you return home, you can attend follow-ups via video call. In addition to the day-10 in-person control, we recommend another face-to-face visit between 3 and 6 months to assess the final results.

    What medical support will I have during my recovery in Barcelona?

    You will have regular check-ups with Dr. Mazarro and 24/7 support from our team to resolve any concerns or needs during your recovery.
