Our Take
Benson is the standout choice in São Paulo for facial work - his EBOPRAS certification (the only one held by a Brazilian plastic surgeon) plus dual PhDs signal an academically rigorous, European-influenced approach. He operates at premier facilities like Albert Einstein, which adds a hospital-grade safety layer. This is a premium, lower-volume practice; expect quotes after consultation rather than package pricing.
