Up Clinic Lisboa

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I was referred to Dr. Tiago Baptista Fernandes after discovering my silicone implants had ruptured. From the first consultation, I felt confident in his care. He was professional, kind, and informative. The procedure went smoothly, and the results are amazing! Recovery was virtually painless, and I felt well supported throughout. Highly recommend Dr. Tiago and his team!"

"After having gastric bypass procedure in 2002, I began to have cosmetic procedures to get rid of all of the loose skin and feeling deflated. Years ago in 2002\2003 a client in my salon who has a very well-known plastic surgeon that only does from the neck up highly recommended his partner to do my reconstructive surgeries. I was never thrilled with the results but I thought it was better than it was. His work was horrific and I didn’t realize how bad it was until I spoke to other cosmetic surgeons. I spent the last 20 years with the worst body dysmorphia and never looked in the mirror other than my face(As a hairstylist I stood in front of the mirror every day, all day and did not want to see my reflection). I wouldn’t dare be seen in public in a bathing suit because my arm/thighs were disgusting even after I had paid dearly for them to get rid of the loose skin. Then paid again for more reconstructive cosmetic work in Texas to begin to revise his botched work on me right before the pandemic. The doctors at Up Clinic are hands-down amazing, professional, beyond knowledgeable, and offered many solutions to make sure you get the best possible results! The staff flew to Sao Miguel to perform my procedures here at our beautiful new private hospital HIA, so I could recover in my home! Now when I look in the mirror I don’t even know who is looking back at me. I’m still swollen and just about six weeks since my surgery. I am waiting for the swelling to go down and to actually see how perfect my body is because perfectionists at Up Clinic! The medical standards here in Portugal are so much better than in the USA where I had my surgeries done. They offered complete genuine care, professionalism, concern, and were so gentle with me right down to removing the stitches. My comfort and giving me best results was all they cared about!!! Being a hairstylist for 35 years people always come to me and ask me for advice/recommendations for so many different businesses, spa services, cosmetic surgeons/doctors, lawyers, contractors, vets, etc. I would have clients mention that they wanted to go out of the country to Costa Rica or Mexico for surgery because it was cheaper. I would beg them out of it because it is their body and you don’t want cheap you want perfect! I freaked out and I convinced him that is the stupidest idea and you don’t know anything about the doctor, how clean the operating room is, how educated the doctors are, much the sterilization of surgical tools and equipment!! Now..I will tell all of my guests, friends, acquaintances… They need to come to Portugal and schedule a consultation with a doctor from UP Clinic. UP Clinic is the place to have any kind of cosmetic procedure done(and they offer so much more then most). Only the best of doctors work there and you will be over the moon with the doctors, staff and results!! I was even able to do a virtual consultation with the doctor and I didn’t have to leave my home for that(I did end up going to the clinic as well for in person consultation). They are hands-down amazing and definitely the best surgeons in all of the EU! The doctors, surgical team and staff changed my life forever and I love you for allowing me me love who I see in the mirror!!! From the bottom of my heart I LOVE YOU!!!!😍☺️MUITO OBRIGADA!!!!"

"After a good experience with a small revision surgery with dr. Rui Lima I decided to make an appointment for a Co2 laser treatment to address the scar. This time I waited for over an hour just to be presented with a “treatment plan”. I was asked to take numerous photos and even 3D face scans against my will, in a rather paternalistic and intrusive manner. I had to go up and down the stairs four times between different rooms. In the end, I was charged 70 € for a “consultation” that was nothing more than a two-minute chat with a doctor. Very disappointing experience — expensive, disorganized and condescending."

"I did a abdominoplasty, lipoplastic360 , breast lift and implants and fat into the buttocks with Up Clinic and Dr Rui Lima 8 week ago. Up clinic had scheduled surgery at Clínica da Beloura on January 26, 2026. While the initial reception and medical team appeared professional, the post-operative care was completely unacceptable and far below any reasonable standard — especially considering the €20,000 cost. After surgery, I woke up in severe pain and distress in an unattended recovery room with no staff present and no proper call system. It took approximately 10 minutes of trying to call for help before anyone came. Leaving multiple post-operative patients unattended is a serious safety concern. Communication was extremely poor throughout. My husband was not informed of my condition, and I was left without access to my personal belongings for hours. We was sleeping the whole night, 6-8 person In one room! The clinic’s facilities were unacceptable. There were active water leaks in both the ward and the toilet, creating unhygienic and uncomfortable conditions. The food provided over nearly 24 hours was minimal and inadequate. Overall, the level of care, organization, hygiene, and communication was far below what should be expected from a clinic charging premium prices 20.000€. While some of the nursing staff were kind and did their best, this does not compensate for the serious systemic failures. I cannot recommend this clinic. The result - my breasts sit low on my stomach. I feel deformed. My scar across my stomach is moving up. I didn't get the breast size I requested despite my clarity of what I wanted, so the doctor put in less because he thought it was more natural, not what I wanted. Now 8 weeks later I have spent another €1500 on aftercare. I still have open wounds that leak. The disappointment is total and the trauma from this surgery to dare to correct this!!"

"My wife had a face and eyebrows surgery with dr Tiago Baptista Fernandez .She nearly died after surgery,she was abandoned in hospital with no blood test check her blood sugars,she was totally disfigured by dr Tiago and she lost her eye sight .He booked her to do corective surgery at Up Clinic last week ,when he saw how bad the damage was he said it was a perfect job and refused to do the correction or refund her to go find another doctor.We will take the case in court but PLEASE RUN AWAY from this Clinic !!! Bad,bad,bad doctor ! Don’t let them ruin your life like they did to my wife"
