Innovation Through the Preserve Technique
One of the defining aspects of Dr. Luis’s practice is the use of advanced, minimally invasive techniques. He is among the few plastic surgeons in Colombia who offer the innovative Preservation breast augmentation technique, a modern approach that respects your body’s natural structures.

It is typically performed with local anesthesia and can be completed in approximately 20 to 30 minutes, making it a highly efficient and patient-friendly option.
Patients choose this method because it offers:
