Luis A. Picard-Ami, Jr, MD, MSc, FACS

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.

After exploring lower face & neck lift surgery in my home state and finding it far more expensive than I was comfortable with, I looked for more affordable options abroad and discovered the services of Dr. Luis Picard-Ami, Jr. in Panama City. Six months after an initial consultation in his office at the Punta Pacifica Hospital (one of the best hospitals in Central America), I returned to Panama in late June and underwent face and neck lift surgery under his most capable hands
