NewHolidays currently features four clinics in Brazil across Brasília, Belém and Rio de Janeiro. They are not interchangeable options. The providers cover dentistry, implant rehabilitation, orofacial aesthetics and dermatologist-led facial treatments.
For an international patient, the practical decision should start with the type of treatment and the clinician responsible for it. Brazil is a large country. Choosing the right provider first is therefore more useful than choosing a city and trying to fit treatment around the trip.
Featured clinics and specialists in Brazil
Instituto Diogo Lustosa
Instituto Diogo Lustosa in Asa Sul focuses on orofacial harmonization rather than general dentistry. Dr Diogo Lustosa is a dentist and specialist in orofacial harmonization, and the institute combines private patient care with professional education.
This creates an important choice for patients. Treatment may take place privately or through supervised educational programmes. Before travelling, confirm which pathway you are booking, who will perform the procedure and whether Dr Lustosa will treat you personally.

Clínica EquipeDente
Clínica EquipeDente in the Nazaré area of Belém has operated for around 20 years. Its current treatment information includes dental implants, fixed protocol prostheses, orthodontics, dental veneers and professional whitening.
The clinic may be particularly relevant when dental treatment requires several stages. Implant rehabilitation can involve surgery, healing and later prosthetic work, while orthodontics creates a different need for ongoing follow-up.

Dr Taísa Castello Gomes
Dr Taísa Castello Gomes practises in Barra da Tijuca. Her current professional profile covers endodontics, orthodontics, Invisalign, restorative dentistry and orofacial harmonization.
This combination can be useful when the patient first needs to establish whether the problem involves tooth health, tooth position or appearance. A cosmetic goal may require a different solution from a damaged tooth or bite problem.

Dr Carolina Gonçalves Dermatology
Dr Carolina Gonçalves is a dermatologist in Flamengo whose practice combines clinical and aesthetic dermatology. Treatments include botulinum toxin, fillers, skinboosters and collagen-stimulating procedures.
The dermatologist-led setting may be relevant when an aesthetic concern overlaps with skin health. Dr Carolina also works with dermoscopy, trichoscopy and selected minor dermatological procedures.
Explore ClinicHow to compare clinics in Brazil
The four providers serve different treatment needs, so price alone does not provide a useful comparison.
For dentistry, ask whether treatment can fit into one trip or requires healing and a second visit. Implant patients should clarify the surgical and definitive restorative stages. Orthodontic patients need to understand how regular reviews would work after returning home.
For facial aesthetics, confirm who will perform the procedure and how many sessions the plan may require. At Instituto Diogo Lustosa, it is also important to establish whether you are booking private treatment or participating as a patient during a supervised educational programme.
The two Rio providers should also be separated by purpose. Dr Taísa is a dentist whose work includes dental and orofacial treatment. Dr Carolina is a medical dermatologist. The problem you want assessed should determine which type of clinician is more relevant.
Brasília, Belém or Rio: choose the treatment before the destination
The clinics in Brazil featured by NewHolidays are spread across three very different cities. Brasília is in the country’s interior, Belém is in northern Brazil and Rio de Janeiro is on the southeast coast.
This makes Brazil different from a destination where several providers sit within the same small resort area. Travelling from one featured city to another would mean a separate part of the trip rather than a short local transfer.
Start by deciding which clinical pathway fits your needs. Then plan flights and accommodation around that provider’s actual appointment schedule.
Rio de Janeiro has two very different options
NewHolidays currently features two providers in Rio, but they should not compete for the same patient need.
Dr Taísa Castello Gomes practises dentistry in Barra da Tijuca. Her work can involve endodontics, orthodontics, restorative treatment and dental aesthetics.
Dr Carolina Gonçalves practises dermatology in Flamengo. Her Botox and facial-aesthetic work sits within a wider medical dermatology practice.
Even their locations differ. Barra da Tijuca and Flamengo are separate parts of Rio, so check the exact appointment address before choosing accommodation. This becomes more important when treatment requires several visits.
Not every treatment travels equally well
A short visit can work very differently depending on what you need.
Botulinum toxin may involve a relatively brief treatment appointment, although you should still ask whether the doctor recommends a later review. Veneers or restorative dentistry can require several appointments within the same stay.
Dental implants can involve months of healing between surgical and restorative stages. Orthodontics usually creates the greatest long-term travel question because monitoring continues over time.
At the Brasília institute, some facial-aesthetic protocols may also involve repeated sessions. Confirm the full treatment sequence rather than assuming that every procedure can finish during one visit to Brazil.
What should you confirm before travelling?
Before arranging treatment abroad, ask the provider to explain both the clinical plan and the practical schedule for your individual case.
- Who will personally assess and treat you?
- Does another specialist need to participate?
- Which photographs, X-rays, scans or previous treatment information are useful before travel?
- How many appointments will you need?
- Can treatment finish during one stay?
- Is another trip likely?
- What exactly does the quotation include?
- What follow-up does the clinician recommend after you return home?
- Which language will be used during consultation, consent and aftercare?
These questions should change according to the treatment. An implant patient needs different information from someone considering Invisalign, Botox or facial fillers.
How NewHolidays can help with clinics in Brazil
NewHolidays helps international patients contact clinics in Brazil and clarify information before deciding whether to travel.
You can explain the treatment you are considering, your expected travel dates and any previous treatment. Dental patients can mention recent X-rays or scans. Patients considering facial aesthetics can provide relevant information about previous fillers, botulinum toxin, threads or other procedures.
NewHolidays can help clarify the treating professional, expected stages, number of visits, language support and current quotation. The clinic or doctor remains responsible for diagnosis, clinical suitability and the final treatment plan.
When comparing clinics in Brazil, use the individual provider profiles to understand the differences before making a decision. The right option depends on the treatment, clinician, follow-up requirements and whether the plan realistically fits your time in Brazil.
