Brazilian aesthetic medicine trends
Entities: Brazil · Florianópolis · Mário Silveira · International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery · CONGREHOF
Overview
In late July 2026 Brazil hosted two large‑scale aesthetic‑medicine gatherings. The Full Body 2026 congress in São Paulo was billed as Latin America’s biggest body‑aesthetic event, while the 7th CONGREHOF in Florianópolis attracted around 5,000 professionals from a wide range of specialties. Organizers stressed the importance of up‑to‑date techniques, safety, and the link between scientific innovation and clinical practice.
Within days, industry commentary highlighted a shift in Brazilian plastic‑surgery practice. Surgeons are moving away from the high‑definition liposuction aesthetic toward more natural, individualized results, using newer tools such as ultrasound‑assisted and argon‑plasma devices. This reflects a broader demand for subtle, patient‑specific outcomes even as Brazil remains the world leader in the volume of aesthetic procedures.
