Your Surgery - Pre and Post Trips
The
necessary duration of your stay in São
Paulo for hair transplant surgery is 3 days
as follows:
1st Day : Arrival. Personal evaluation
at Ruston Clinic.
2nd Day: Day of Hair Transplant Surgery
3rd Day: Return to Ruston Clinic
to have first shampoo and revision.
After, you are free to return to your country.
The stitches in the donor area will
fall out automatically (making removal unnecessary)
and the post-operative instructions will be
given to you at the clinic when you go for
your first shampoo, the day after surgery.
Some patients however prefer to spend a little
time in Brazil, however, to rest or take the
opportunity as a small vacation.
For these patients, we suggest some small
trips of four or more days that you may take
before or after your surgery.
Pré–operative
Trips
You may take advantage of your first
days in Brazil getting to know some very special
and interesting places.
We have listed some suggestions and
tips here:
|
The Amazon represents
over half of the planet's remaining rainforests
and comprises the largest and most species-rich
tract of tropical rainforest in the world.
Ariaú Amazon Towers is the only
hotel complex at tree top level in the
Amazon Rainforest. |
|
To the east of
Brazilian coastline, the archipelago of
"Fernando de Noronha" comprises
21 islands created more than 10 million
years by a volcanic eruption. It is located
345 kilometers off the coast of Pernambuco,
Brazil, and has been classified as a nature
reserve and as world heritage by U.N.E.S.C.O.,
hence protecting historic buildings, flora,
fauna and three of Brazil’s most
beautiful beaches. |
|
Located on the
border between Argentina and Brazil, each
year Iguassu Falls attract thousands of
tourists. Those who visit the falls can
hike over walkways that lead tourists
only a few meters over the largest of
the waterfalls, suggestively named "Garganta
do Diabo" or “Devil's Throat”.
It is impossible to avoid getting wet--
and to be utterly thrilled. Yet that is
not all. The Waterfalls are part of the
Iguassu National Park, the largest subtropical
rainforest on Earth. |

The visitor seeking
a resort destination which also provides
the sophisticated infra-structure of a
modern city will find everything he requires
in Rio de Janeiro. Factor in the rainforest
flourishing between the city and the beaches
and you have a unique range of attractions
all within the one destination. |

Post-operative
Trips
If you prefer, you may also schedule travel
for after surgery. The only inconvenience
is that you may not participate in adventure
travel or beaches, or any destination that
may compromise your healing in the post-operative
period, however you will have the advantage
of being able to return to your country having
fully recuperated after the surgery.
Some travel options follow:

São Paulo
is a major cultural centre. The city has
an ethnically diverse metropolitan area,
with heavy Italian, Spanish, Portuguese,
German, Arab and Japanese influences.
The city is known for its varied and sophisticated
cuisine, ranging from Chinese to French,
from fast food chains to five star restaurants.
There are approximately 52 different types
of cuisines in São Paulo, and more
than 12,000 restaurants. Other venues
such as bars, pubs, lounges and discos
cater to a variety of music tastes. |

To experience
genuinely cold weather, Brazilians head
into the highlands. Located in the Serra
da Mantiqueira, is the lively winter resort
of Campos Do Jordão, 1628m above
sea level. The town’s Swiss chalet-style
hotels and private houses, boutiques and
Germanic style restaurants create its
charm. There are good walks, and trails
are well signposted. In July the town
experiences an influx of visitors to enjoy
the winter festival of classical music. |
|
The Serra Gaúcha
is considered to be one of the most beautiful
areas in the southern states of Brazil.
The most visited sites by tourists in
the Serra Gaúcha are the towns
of Gramado and Canela. Gramado is home
of the Brazilian Movie Festival, the Festival
of Lights during Christmas season, many
conventions and other gatherings. Canela
is known for its natural beauty and can
be visited on the same day when visiting
Gramado. Don't forget to drop by the Caracol
Falls when visiting Canela. |
It should be
clearly stated that for trips prior to your
surgery, you may choose any destination or
activity, however there is some special care
involved in the post-operative period, therefore
there are some restrictions to the activities
and tourist destinations. Should you wish
to visit some place in Brazil not cited here,
or should you have any other doubts, please
do not hesitate to contact
us. |
