History & Culture
Visit Lima's Historic Centre (UNESCO World Heritage Site), the Larco Museum with its 5,000-year collection of Pre-Columbian art, and explore Barranco's vibrant bohemian art scene just minutes from Miraflores.

Walk along the iconic Malecón clifftop promenade in Miraflores, paraglide over the Pacific cliffs, or head to the beaches south of Lima for a relaxing afternoon by the ocean.

International Patient FAQ
Peru's official currency is the Peruvian Sol (PEN). The current exchange rate is approximately 3.7 PEN per 1 USD. US dollars are widely accepted in Miraflores hotels, upscale restaurants, and many shops. At Elyzea, we accept major credit cards and USD. ATMs are plentiful throughout Miraflores for local currency withdrawals.
Yes. Miraflores is Lima's safest and most tourist-friendly district, with a visible security presence, pedestrian-friendly streets, and a high concentration of international hotels, restaurants, and services. It is the area of choice for business travellers and international visitors to Lima, and is generally considered safe to walk around during the day and evening.
We strongly recommend travel insurance with medical coverage for any international trip. While our treatments are non-invasive and carry minimal risk, comprehensive travel insurance provides peace of mind for unexpected situations — from flight changes to minor health concerns. Look for policies that cover medical evacuation and trip interruption.
Most of our non-invasive treatments have no flight restrictions whatsoever — you can fly the same day as your HydraFacial, Cryolipolysis, or EMSbody session. For injectable treatments like botulinum toxin and hyaluronic acid, we recommend allowing 24–48 hours before flying to let any minor swelling settle. For laser treatments, Dra. Geldres will advise you on the appropriate recovery window during your consultation.
Lima has mild, temperate weather year-round thanks to its coastal desert climate. Temperatures range from 15°C to 27°C (59°F to 81°F). Lima rarely experiences rain — instead, a coastal mist (known locally as garúa) is common from May to October, when skies are overcast and slightly cooler. From December to April, skies are clearer and temperatures are warmer — ideal for combining aesthetic treatments with beach days and tourism.
