Dr. Luis A. Picard-Ami Plastic Surgery Clinic

"Incredible Results and Care with Dr. Luis Picard-Ami! I am absolutely thrilled with the results of my procedure with Dr. Luis Picard-Ami, and I can’t recommend him highly enough! From the very first consultation to my 7-month post-op check-in, the entire experience has been exceptional. Dr. Picard-Ami's skill, professionalism, and genuine care made a huge impression on me. After speaking with several surgeons in California, I chose him not only because of the more affordable cost but also due to the level of attention and personalized care he offered. He truly listens to his patients and takes the time to understand exactly what you want. The results exceeded my expectations, and my confidence has skyrocketed as a result of his expertise. I now feel like I can walk through the world with my head held high! What further set Dr. Picard-Ami apart was the outstanding support I received from his office staff. The team was welcoming, kind, and extremely professional. They made sure I felt comfortable every step of the way. Although I don’t speak Spanish, communication was never an issue—Dr. Picard-Ami is fluent in English, and many of his staff members are as well. This made the entire process smooth and stress-free. The medical facility where my procedure was performed was top-notch, with everything you’d expect from a high-quality clinic. Unlike many U.S.-based doctors who perform procedures in office extensions, Dr. Picard-Ami uses a full medical facility, which gave me great peace of mind. Post-procedure care was thorough—there was a nurse available to assist me, and I was provided with therapy to support my healing process. I even had Dr. Picard-Ami’s personal contact number to reach out with any questions, adding an extra layer of care and accessibility. From the moment I first met Dr. Picard-Ami to the present day, my experience has been outstanding. If you are considering a procedure, I highly encourage you to trust Dr. Picard-Ami and his team. My results are amazing, and my overall experience was flawless—from the consultation to recovery. I’m incredibly grateful for everything!"

"Extraordinary Care, Extraordinary Results: My Experience with Dr. Luis Picard Ami in Panama City Having spent time in Panama previously—and knowing its reputation for excellent healthcare—I was aware that Panama City offered sophisticated medical services. But I had no idea the same level of integrity, expertise, and personalized care existed in the world of plastic surgery… until met Dr. Luis Picard Ami. From the moment I met him, I was struck by his honesty, empathy, and calm confidence. He didn’t tell me what I wanted to hear—he told me what I needed to hear. That gave me instant trust in him and in the process. By the end of our first meeting on a Monday afternoon, I knew I had found the right surgeon. I had also consulted with another highly regarded surgeon in Panama City. But after meeting Dr. Picard Ami, I felt such a profound sense of trust, clarity, and alignment that I scheduled surgery for two days later. That’s how sure I was. Dr. Picard Ami has that rare combination of world-class surgical skill and genuine, human-centered care. It was important to me to know that he trained at top institutions including McGill University and the University of Miami and has practiced for over 32 years across the U.S., Canada, and Panama. And it was vital that I knew he held multiple elite board certifications—American Board of Plastic Surgery, American College of Surgeons, and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada—and is a former president of the Panamanian Association of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. But technical expertise is just part of the story. His bedside manner is extraordinary: calm, compassionate, and always honest. He listens deeply, answers every question thoroughly, and never rushes the conversation. During our consultation, he even suggested a few thoughtful enhancements—subtle, related touches I hadn’t considered—that made a dramatic difference in my final results. These weren’t upsells; they were insights from a master who truly sees the whole person and wants you to feel your absolute best. I’d had a previous U.S. consultation years ago for liposuction where every small section of my abdomen was quoted as a separate fee. With Dr. Picard Ami, there’s none of that. He doesn’t “add on” or segment your body into billable zones. He’s interested in creating beautiful, cohesive results that serve you, not his bottom line. His entire team is just as exceptional. Everyone speaks English, and from start to finish, it felt like I had an entire group of professionals on my side, focused on supporting me emotionally, physically, and medically…from my first visit, through surgery and post-op support, treatments and care. When I had a minor concern post-op which needed up being nothing, Dr. Picard Ami followed up personally, even calling the hospital on a Sunday and checking in on me several times. He continues to check in regularly via WhatsApp and in-person appointments. The surgical facilities and Panama Clinic are state-of-the-art. You are not sacrificing anything in the way of top-notch care, protocols and expertise. If you’re coming from abroad, it’s all incredibly easy: Panama City is modern and safe, the airport is nearby, and you can stay at the Marriott next to the clinic (they offer special pricing for patients and even wellness support if you’re traveling solo like I did). The results I have experienced are far beyond what I hoped for—and I genuinely feel like a new person who has reconnected with the woman I was before menopause. I am literally giddy with the joy I feel and the confidence this experience has reignited in me. I have Dr. Picard Ami and team to thank for this! Dr. Picard Ami is a master of his craft and a person of high integrity, judgment, and kindness. He’s genuinely excited about your transformation and its impact on your life. Suffice to say he is “all in” with you to realize your vision and and even exceed it. I feel so lucky to have found him—and I recommend him with my whole heart."

"Having facial surgery is a very big deal which entails doing a lot of research to find that top notch surgeon who you can trust wholeheartedly. After many years of insecurity about my facial features I began this journey. I was referred to Dr. Picard-Ami by two of my friends. They spoke highly of him and received excellent results from their surgeries. He was very accomodating and conducted my first consultation on a video call. During the call, I felt very comfortable and I new that he was the right surgeon for me. I had other consults with surgeon's in the USA who did not impress me and I did not feel that they had my best interest. Dr. Picard-Ami is an exceptional person and highly educated and skilled. He is honest, empathetic, humble, funny and was able to keep me calm throughout the entire process from before surgery to current 5 months post op. This is a surgeon who listens carefully, answers questions with honesty and gives a genuine opinion, which built my confidence and trust in him. His office is very clean and inviting and his office staff (Carmen, Carolina, Lynn and Laiza) are very professional and speak fluent english which helped make the process seamless. I was always treated with kindness and respect in his office as well as during my surgery at the Panama clinic. The accomodations could not be any better since the Panama clinic is connected to the Residence Inn Marriott Hotel (with a clinic discounted daily rate). I did not need to worry about anything because he has a nurse who will come to your hotel room to assist with bathing, dressing and wound care, as well as offering other services such as lymphatic massage to aid in reducing the swelling. With that said, he thought of everything to make my surgery a success! Not only is he exceptional with his intelligence and skilled hands, but he is the most caring surgeon who I have had the honor and pleasure of being a patient. This surgeon puts his patients on high priority and is always accessible by phone or email with quick responses. The results of my surgery are beyond what I had hoped for-they are exactly what I dreamed of, and they have given me a new sense of confidence and happiness. Dr. Picard-Ami came highly recommended by my friends, and now I feel so blessed to be able to recommend him myself. He is not only an extraordinary surgeon, but also a truly remarkable human being. I will alwyas be grateful for the impact he has had on my life. I posted pre and post op photos to put pictures to my words. I had an upper and lower blepharoplasty, chin implant, lip lift, deep plane facelift, and fat transfer. You can see the remarkable improvement at my upper eyelids and my profile-Amazing! So, if your are thinking about plastic surgery, you will not go wrong with consulting with Dr. Picard-Ami."

"My husband and I are so pleased with the results that we got from our procedures with Dr Picard Ami. We both did a combination of procedures and everything has turned out amazingly. We wanted to enhance what we had, but not make major changes and this was perfect for us. The staff at the clinic is amazing and we really enjoyed the amount of time that we had working with them and recovering from our procedures If you are remotely interested in any cosmetic procedures, we highly going to Dr Picard Ami’s clinic."

"I travel to Panama annually from the United States to avoid the cold weather. Last year I decided to check out a plastic surgeon. I was interested in getting an eye and jowl lift. After meeting with Dr. Picard-Ami I decided to proceed when we returned in 2026. I was able to make my appointment and obtain necessary details from my home in the U.S. The cost was so much lower than I imagined. I would not only be getting an eye lift but a face and neck lift! My procedure was performed on January 8, 2026. I found Dr. Picard-Ami to be professional and also quite personable. He genuinely cares about his patients. It was obvious to me that he loves giving his patients the results they are hoping for, even beyond that. Hours after my procedure I did experience complications. This happened to fall early Friday of a holiday weekend. The doctor was available and met my husband and I within minutes. I felt like i was a patient on Grey's Anatomy as he swiftly created a emergency operating room in his office. He calmed my fears and quickly and expertly resolved the acute issue. The doctor remained available and responsive throughout the remainder of the holiday weekend and sent a private nurse to check on me late Friday evening. Dr. Picard-Ami far exceeded my expectations as a remarkable surgeon. I also found him to be an exceptional human being. I am a little more than 2 weeks out of surgery and I can already see the beautiful results of his work. During post op meetings I relayed a few suggestions regarding miscommunications with his team. He listened intently and incorporated some of my suggestions into his care plan. Dr. Luis Picard-Ami is a world class plastic surgeon who produces world class results, making this level of care financially possible for ordinary people like me. I give him a 5 star rating."
