Ana María Salinas, Cirujano plástico

With outpatient lobuloplasty lasting about 60 minutes under local anesthesia—followed by removal of stitches or a bandage after 1 week and a new ear piercing in 20–30 days—Ana María Salinas Rendón builds her pediatric and facial plastic care around clear timing and patient comfort. As a specialist at Dr. Ana María Salinas Rendón (Consultorio 712, CO), she follows an explicitly human, safety-first philosophy for both adults and children. Her breast surgery practice combines explantation (definitive removal of silicone implants) with breast reconstruction, commonly using mastopexy patterns such as an inverted T or L to remove excess stretched skin and reposition the patient’s own tissue. For children, she provides reconstructive pediatric plastic surgery, including cleft lip and cleft palate reconstruction, with care planned to support feeding, speech development, and nasal ventilation from early life.
