Plastic Surgery in Tenerife at Clínica ICA
Patients considering plastic surgery in Tenerife can be treated at Clínica ICA, the Instituto de Cirugía Avanzada, with locations serving both the north and south of the island. Rather than operating as a single-treatment cosmetic centre, ICA combines plastic surgery, aesthetic surgery and medical aesthetic care within an established multidisciplinary medical team.
The institute was founded in Tenerife in 2010. Dr. Sonia Díaz is the clinic’s founder and medical director, while Sergio Luis Cabezas is founder and director. For surgical cases, the current medical team includes Dr. Manuel Joaquín Harrer, plastic surgeon, and Dr. Joaquín García Aparicio, aesthetic surgeon, together with professionals from general surgery, internal medicine, nursing and other medical disciplines.
A Surgical Clinic Rather Than a Beauty Centre
One of the important distinctions for patients researching cosmetic surgery abroad is the type of facility in which they will actually be assessed and treated. Clínica ICA has surgical facilities of its own and also works with other medical centres when the planned procedure requires it. The clinic also places particular emphasis on medical assessment before surgery and follow-up after the procedure.
This makes the Tenerife clinic suitable for patients who want their treatment planned as a medical procedure rather than simply choosing an operation from a cosmetic treatment list. During the consultation, the surgeon can assess medical history, the area to be treated, expectations and whether surgery is in fact the appropriate option.
Plastic Surgeons and Medical Team at Clínica ICA Tenerife
Dr. Sonia Díaz is the founder and medical director of Clínica ICA in Tenerife and is closely involved in the clinic’s aesthetic medicine services and patient care.
Dr. Manuel Joaquín Harrer is part of the ICA medical team as a plastic surgeon, while Dr. Joaquín García Aparicio works within aesthetic surgery. The wider team also includes Dr. Carmen Díaz López in general surgery, medical and nursing professionals and specialists from several related areas of care.
This multidisciplinary structure is particularly relevant when a patient requires more than a straightforward aesthetic treatment or when medical assessment and postoperative supervision need to be coordinated as part of the same treatment plan.
Facial and Body Surgery Available in Tenerife
Clínica ICA performs both facial and body surgery. Its surgical portfolio includes procedures such as blepharoplasty, rhinoplasty, otoplasty, minilifting, facial lipofilling and bichectomy, as well as breast surgery, high-definition liposuction and selected intimate surgical procedures.
Patients are encouraged to discuss the result they want to achieve rather than selecting a procedure only by name. For example, a patient concerned about ageing around the eyes and lower face may require a different approach from someone whose main concern is excess eyelid skin. The surgeon determines which procedure, or whether surgery at all, is appropriate after examination.
Blepharoplasty and Facial Surgery at Clínica ICA
Facial surgery is an established part of ICA’s surgical department. Blepharoplasty is available for patients seeking correction of excess skin and/or fatty deposits affecting the upper or lower eyelids. ICA also performs minilifting, rhinoplasty, otoplasty and facial lipofilling.
Patients interested specifically in eyelid surgery, facelift procedures or another individual treatment can request a treatment-specific assessment rather than relying on general descriptions of cosmetic surgery.
Clínica ICA in Tenerife North and Tenerife South
Clínica ICA is accessible from both sides of Tenerife. Its northern centre is located at Calle La Palmita 2, 38314 La Orotava. In the south of Tenerife, the clinic operates at Av. Moscú 38, Local 9, C.C. Aquamall, Costa Adeje.
The two locations can be particularly useful for international patients because accommodation can be planned around either northern Tenerife or the main tourist areas of the south. Patients travelling specifically for surgery should, however, arrange their return journey around the medical review schedule rather than choosing flights before the surgeon confirms how long they should remain in Tenerife.
Consultation and Treatment Planning
Clínica ICA currently lists an initial medical consultation with Dr. Sonia Díaz at €60. For major surgical consultations with the plastic surgeon, the clinic currently lists a fee of €150. When treatment subsequently goes ahead at ICA, the consultation amount is deducted from the final treatment or procedure cost.
Consultation charges and treatment prices can change, so the current fee should always be confirmed when the appointment is arranged.
Post-Operative Follow-Up in Tenerife
Follow-up is an important part of the way ICA organises surgical care. The clinic schedules postoperative monitoring rather than treating the operation itself as the end of the process. This is especially relevant for international patients who need to know when the first review takes place and when travelling home is medically appropriate.
Patients travelling from the UK or another country should therefore provide their expected Tenerife dates when making an enquiry. This allows the clinic to consider the consultation, procedure and required postoperative reviews when assessing whether the proposed trip is realistic.
Experience and Clinical Standards
Clínica ICA’s medical team represents more than 25 years of professional experience across its areas of aesthetic medicine and surgery. The Instituto de Cirugía Avanzada obtained ISO 9001 certification in 2019, reflecting the clinic’s work on defined quality-management procedures.
The clinic currently operates Monday to Friday, with its main published opening hours listed as 10:00 to 18:00. Surgical consultations and procedure times are arranged individually and may differ depending on the doctor and Tenerife location.
