‘HEALTH’ EDITION - JULY 24 ISSUE Photo: @trumpas_ Text: @juliafagundes_ Production: @coradigital Dr. Frederico Keim, an otolaryngologist and specialist in structured rhinoplasty, is known on social media and in the media as the doctor to the celebrities. At 40 years old and with 9 years since his graduation, Keim has achieved the impressive milestone of 3,000 structured rhinoplasty surgeries, making him the only Brazilian doctor to reach this accomplishment. He graduated from FURB (Regional University Foundation of Blumenau - In Santa Catarina, Brazil) in 2011 and subsequently completed his medical residency in Otolaryngology in São Paulo from 2012 to 2014. Since then, he has developed and refined the structured rhinoplasty technique, originally created in the United States, on Brazilian soil. Photo Disclosure Press Achieving a Great Milestone "Reaching 3,000 surgeries was something I never imagined achieving within 9 years of graduating. This is a number I see people much older than me reaching. Of course, it’s impossible to achieve such a large number without an excellent team behind you. The great thing is that we have practically the same team we started with; we've added a few people, but few have left, so this is a victory for everyone, right?” "Rhinoplasty is an intense surgery. You are dealing with a person's face. The center of the face is something that is always in focus, and the patients' demands are increasingly higher. But, obviously, having performed 3,000 surgeries, things flow better." Photo: Trumpas - @trumpas_ A Growing Number "Many people ask me: 'Don’t you think about reducing the number of surgeries?' And I say, 'No, I like it.' I like this high number; I like leaving the hospital tired, with a sense of accomplishment, you know? I enjoy doing three surgeries a day. There have been days when I've done four, but when it's four primary surgeries, I get very tired. Now, if it's three surgeries and a minor procedure, like an alar base reduction, it's doable. But I think three surgeries a day is the ideal number." Patient Well-being from Start to Finish "Over time, I realized that surgery doesn't only depend on the work we do. In some cases, cartilage is absorbed, and projection is lost, and this is influenced by each person's lifestyle, you know? I started noticing a pattern, more susceptible to complications, which is related to hormones or body inflammation. So, I brought a nutritionist and a dietitian into the clinic so we can reduce body inflammation before surgery, request tests, and provide dietary guidance. Many people liked the initiative and started consulting these professionals, pursuing a follow-up focused on longevity and quality of life." Photo: Trumpas - @trumpas_ Pioneer on Social Media "I faced a lot of criticism in the beginning. It was really something very new, a doctor exposing themselves on social media. And, in my opinion, it's very important because someone who has had their nose operated on three or four times wants to get to know you deeply and see your results to know if they can trust you. So, when you show the number of surgeries you've performed, show these results in photos, patients understand the seriousness of it. Today, the patient wants to know and talk to people you've operated on, see your clinic on social media, and know what the doctor is like post-op. In other words, I think the best approach is to be open and show my reality, allowing my future patients to get to know my professional routine." Photo: Trumpas - @trumpas_ - Photo Disclosure Press A Father's Care "When I operate on a minor patient, and the parents entrust her to me, I deeply feel what they are going through. I talk to the father and mother and say, 'Look, I can imagine what you are going through right now, and thank you for entrusting your greatest treasure to me.' Obviously, we have a greater care in reassuring the family; sometimes, I ask my team to send a message in the middle of the surgery, letting them know everything is going well. We, as surgeons and parents, have this responsibility pulsing even more strongly within us." Photo Disclosure Press The Doctor Who Became a Patient "I tell my colleagues who perform rhinoplasty: 'You will never be complete unless you undergo the surgery as a patient.' I have colleagues who, when examining me, hurt me, and I say, 'Calm down, it's delicate.' So, my experience changed the way I touch the patient, changed my patience regarding complaints and the patient's anxiety. There were moments when I looked at my nose, which was very swollen, and I didn't like what I saw, especially in the first week after surgery. Then, as you see the progress, you realize it was worth it. The other day, I arrived at the office and saw a video of myself on TV with my old nose, and I thought, 'Why didn't I have the surgery sooner?' The decision was very right, but it is not a simple decision; I always tell people they should plan for rhinoplasty and, of course, choose a doctor they truly trust."

In the heart of Paris, Nicolas di Felice , the artistic director of Courrèges, presented his highly anticipated Haute Couture collection as the latest guest designer for Jean Paul Gaultier . Taking over from Simone Rocha , di Felice brought a fresh and dynamic energy to the iconic brand, showcasing a collection that fused innovation with a deep respect for Gaultier’s legacy. Photos Disclosure Jean Paul Gaultier Despite being relatively new to the haute couture scene—his debut at Courrèges coinciding with the inception of Gaultier’s guest designer series in 2021—di Felice’s presentation was anything but novice. The setting of JPG's headquarters was stiflingly hot, almost like a greenhouse under the Parisian skylights, but this did nothing to dim the brilliance of the collection. Photos Disclosure Jean Paul Gaultier Di Felice has been instrumental in reviving Courrèges, transforming it from a dormant heritage brand into a vibrant label sought after by the youth for its edgy club wear and stylish vinyl pieces. His approach has always been to honor the Space Age origins of Courrèges while pushing it firmly into the future. Photos Disclosure Jean Paul Gaultier Reflecting on his influences, di Felice recalled the impact of Jean Paul Gaultier’s iconic designs from his youth in Belgium, particularly Madonna's infamous cone bra. “For many of us, especially those who felt different or were part of the queer community, Gaultier symbolized Paris as a place of endless possibilities,” he remarked. “He was a pioneer in celebrating diversity, and that has always stayed with me.” Photos Disclosure Jean Paul Gaultier The collection itself was a testament to di Felice’s ability to blend past and present. It featured striking silhouettes and innovative fabric combinations, paying homage to Gaultier’s bold aesthetic while infusing it with his own contemporary twist. The pieces on display were not just garments but statements, each telling a story of transformation and modernity. Photos Disclosure Jean Paul Gaultier Photos Disclosure Jean Paul Gaultier

Erick Mafra, Brazilian best-selling author and content creator, is about to release his fourth book, transitioning from fantasy to poetry. This collection of autobiographical and symbolist poems is inspired by Arthur Rimbaud, the LGBTQPIAN+ French poet who, alongside his lover Paul Verlaine, one of the greatest poets of French symbolism, immensely influenced modern art. Their tumultuous and passionate relationship, marked by Verlaine leaving his wife to pursue this forbidden romance, serves as a profound influence on Mafra's new work. LOVELY! Gabriel Santana, a Brazilian actor known for his role in the renowned novela Pantanal, is bisexual. He found a creative kindred spirit in Erick Mafra. Together, they support each other in all areas and are currently developing a play under the Paulo Gustavo Law, which supports the arts in Brazil. On the last Valentine's Day, they shared a poem from Erick Mafra's book " The Fall of the Angel " (Galera Record) for free, allowing readers to experience the transition from fantasy to poetry. Along with the poems, intimate images of the couple were included to help readers, especially Gen Z, visualize the project's narrative and connect more deeply. Love and Art. In the chapter "John Lennon square," a personal text about being in love and the repression of religion, including sects. The text narrates a relationship that faces homophobic and religious attacks, sects, family issues, and makes reference to the Oslo Accords signed in 1993 for peace in the Middle East, as well as the love between John Lennon and Yoko Ono, emphasizing his choice of her over fame and power. The aesthetic of the photos was inspired by the universe of Stranger Things, with a romantic summer tone that delves into the idea that all love is sacred. Love wins! This poem connects with chapters 11 and 4, which have already been released on Erick's social media and on Tumblr at https://www.tumblr.com/aquedadoanjo Team: Fashion + Support: Converse All Star @converse_br Photos: Felipe Castelani @fecastelani Analog: Biell Dream @bielldream Styling & Content: LUNN @lundefr Styling look 2: Wardrobe @ManuGavassi Painting: Luana Goés @luana.g.m Production: Letícia Inácio @letyinacio Backstage & Social: ISA QUERE @isaaquere Editing: Marcia Madeira, Amanda Grilli, Letícia Inácio, Igor Lino @letyinacio @madeiramarcia007 @grilliverso @igorlino Creative Direction: @erickmafra Assistance: Alice Rosas & Giovanna Gilio Realization: @hearthouse Editor-In-Chief Hooks: Matheus Hooks

'HEALTH' COVER EDITION - JUNE 24 ISSUE Photos: Mauricio Leandro / @leboarding Text @juliafagundes_ Production @juliafagundes_ and @coradigital Studio @studioluah Design Director Cover: @mathlopes Editor-In-Chief: @directorhooks Specializing in body contouring and breast reconstruction surgeries, plastic surgeon Dr. Marco Polo Rios is a leading expert in Mommy Makeover procedures, which restore the breasts and abdomen after pregnancy. Dr. Marco Polo graduated in medicine from Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF) and became a specialist in high-definition liposuction, breast surgeries, and facial rejuvenation after completing medical residencies in General Surgery at Hospital do Servidor Público Municipal de São Paulo (HSPM) and in Plastic Surgery at the Faculdade de Medicina da USP (HCFMUSP). At 42 years old, Dr. Marco Polo has performed approximately 9,000 surgeries. "Although no one in my family worked in healthcare, I always enjoyed and followed medical programs and had a great interest in the profession. Plastic surgery entered my life as a vocation to care for people and heal wounds deeper than many imagine." Professional Development "When you are young and move to a different country, you lose contact with your family and friends, which is already a huge challenge. But in Boston, at Harvard University, I had a very rewarding experience. There, I was able to understand the routine of each professional and each specialty, as well as the functioning of hospitals outside Brazil. This immersion helped me to have a much broader idea of how important plastic surgery is, not only here but around the world, with different approaches." A Reference in Plastic Surgery "Brazil is a country of excellence in plastic surgery, our training is extremely differentiated, and we end up becoming major references for patients from abroad as well. I receive many messages on social media from people wanting to undergo surgery. First, because the quality of results here is very high, and second, because the costs are attractive. It's becoming increasingly common to operate on women from the United States and Europe. Just this week, I operated on a patient from China who came for liposculpture with breast volume enhancement through fat grafting." Mommy Makeover and Boosting Self-Esteem "When I receive patients who have undergone body changes due to pregnancy, we often see a significant fragility in their self-esteem and personal and interpersonal relationships. We notice that this type of surgery not only restores the body to its pre-pregnancy state but also boosts self-esteem, sometimes to levels the patient never had before. So, seeing this result, not just physically but emotionally and affectively, is very gratifying." How to Choose the Ideal Doctor "I am very focused on enhancing and improving the quality of relationships with my patients. When they choose me, they trust me as a professional, handing over their bodies for us to transform. As professionals, we naturally aim to achieve the best possible result. It is very common for friendships to form during this process, which is great because it creates a close relationship. My idea is to be involved in the entire surgical process of the patient, so the motto 'the doctor operates, the doctor discharges' is a guiding principle in my life." Family "I joke with my wife that I live in a pink world because I treat many women, work with women, and live in a house full of women. This is a good thing because it has allowed me to develop a greater sensitivity to understanding the emotions and perceptions of the female world. It is a pleasure and a privilege." A Dream "In the long term, my dream is to create a space where patients can feel as welcomed as possible. In this place, we aim not only to transform their aesthetics but also to improve their quality of life, enhance relationships, and positively impact how they present themselves to the world."
