Dr. Mateo listened to my concerns about my issues with my upper lids, I was worried because I am younger than most for the procedure, but after meeting with him, he examined my eyes and hearing that it’s not uncommon for women my age to have this procedure done and seeing his before and after results I felt very confident he could make me feel and look better. I’m beyond happy I took the leap! My eyes are popping more than ever!
I had a tummy tuck and breast augmentation with Dr. Mateo 4 years ago. I had an amazing experience with a great outcome! Dr. Mateo was kind, professional and caring. At the first consultation, Dr. Mateo provided realistic expectations and made sure to answer all of my questions. I explained exactly what I wanted and he made sure to give me the results I wanted. After my surgery I was so happy with my results. He made sure to make my breasts look natural to my body frame. During my recovery period, Dr. Mateo was patient with all my questions and concerns. He always made me feel at ease. Dr. Mateo did such an amazing job, that I returned 2 and half years later to undergo liposuction of my back. Dr. Mateo was still the kind and understanding surgeon as the first day I met him. After 4 children, I feel so comfortable in my own body. He definitely gave me results that improved my view of myself after 4 children. I will forever be grateful to him. I consider him an amazing surgeon. I highly recommend him
I had a fat transfer to my face and hands as well as a lip lift with Dr. Mateo, and I could not be happier with my results! He is truly a perfectionist in the best way. He listened to my goals and delivered results that look natural yet transformative. Not only is he extremely talented, but he's also kind and down-to-earth, which made me feel so comfortable and confident in my decision. The staff was just as amazing. Especially the nurses, who went above and beyond to make sure I felt cared for every step of the way. From consultation through recovery, the entire process was seamless. I always felt like I was in the best hands possible. If you're looking for a surgeon who combines artistry with genuine compassion, Dr. Mateo is the one. I can't recommend him and his team enough!
3 years following gastric sleeve and losing over 80 lbs I knew I wanted a mommy makeover. Dr Mateo was attentive to all my concerns and provided detailed explanations to ease my nerves. After the procedure Dr Mateo provided excellent pain management and post op care. I love my new body and would definitely go back for any future procedures. Thank you Dr Mateo !
I had a tummy tuck, Lipo 360, and a skinny BBL with Dr. Mateo in January 2025 when I was 8 months postpartum. I can honestly say I love my results! I feel like I look even better now than I did before pregnancy. What stood out most was Dr. Mateo’s kind bedside manner and attention to detail. I came to him with BBL “wish pics,” but I didn’t want a traditional, exaggerated BBL look. Instead, I wanted subtle curves with more focus on filling in my hip dips. Dr. Mateo listened carefully and created a plan that was specific to my goals. The fat transfer was done exactly as we discussed, and my shape looks natural yet enhanced. Recovery was smooth, and the results have been so worth it. My waist is snatched from the Lipo 360, my stomach is flat from the tummy tuck, and my overall shape is balanced and feminine. I'm only 8 months out, and I'm noticing my results just keep getting better as my scars fade and my swelling goes away. I would recommend Dr. Mateo to anyone looking for a customized body contouring procedure, whether it’s a postpartum tummy tuck, liposuction, or BBL/fat transfer. He truly listens and delivers results that fit your body and vision.
I was diagnosed with breast cancer and I had double mastectomy with expanders and reconstruction. Dr. Andino performed an extensive surgery called Latissimus Dorsi Flap, in which he transfered part of my upper back muscle to reconstruct the shape of my breats. Later, I had my breasts implants. I am very fortunate to be in the good hands of Dr. Andino who has the professional experience and a total dedication to his patients. Thank you Dr. Andino for being so truthful, so honest, so you.
Choosing Dr. Mateo was the best decision I could have made for myself. From the very first consultation, he impressed me with his professionalism, honesty, and genuine care for his patients. He took the time to explain every option, answer all of my questions, and make sure I felt completely comfortable with the process. I never once felt rushed or like just another patient—he truly listens and wants the best for you. The day of my procedure, Dr. Mateo and his team made everything seamless. His bedside manner is calming and reassuring, and I instantly felt I was in the hands of someone highly skilled and passionate about what they do. The recovery process was exactly how he explained, and I appreciated how attentive he and his staff were during follow-up visits. They checked in, made sure I was healing well, and were always available if I had a concern. The results? Absolutely incredible. Dr. Mateo is a true artist with an eye for natural beauty. I feel more confident, refreshed, and comfortable in my own skin than ever before. Friends and family have complimented how amazing I look, yet no one can quite put their finger on what changed—that’s how natural his work is. I am beyond grateful for Dr. Mateo and his team. If you are considering plastic surgery and want a surgeon who is talented, compassionate, and dedicated to perfection, look no further. Dr. Mateo exceeded my expectations in every way and gave me results that are life-changing

Dr. Mateo is hands down the best surgeon! i had my first surgery with Dr. Mateo in March of 2025 and from booking my consultation to pre-op, surgery day, and post-op my experience was incredible! Dr. Mateo was great at listening to the concerns I wanted to address, the goals I wanted to achieve, and created a surgical plan that would allow me to feel confident in my skin again after having kids. i truly could not be more happy with my results and I am looking forward to the next part of my surgical journey! Big thanks to the NF Plastic Surgery team you all are wonderful!!
I recently had the pleasure of working with Dr. Mateo for a Tummy Tuck and Liposuction, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From my first consultation, I felt welcomed and at ease. Dr. Mateo took the time to listen to my concerns and answered all my questions in detail, which really made me feel confident in my decision. The surgery went smoothly, and the staff were incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. I was impressed by their professionalism and care. The results exceeded my expectations; I feel more confident and happy with my appearance than ever!
Based on what you’ve described, the best way to achieve a more heart-shaped buttock contour is through a combination of liposuction to the back and flanks, along with strategic fat transfer to the buttocks and hips. This approach helps smooth out the square shape and adds subtle projection without creating an overly large look. Adding Avéli to address cellulite and Renuvion for skin tightening would further refine the results by improving the quality and firmness of the overlying skin. If you wanted to take a more aggressive approach and have an even more improved result, a lower body lift could address not only buttock shape but also skin laxity from your weight loss. I recommend a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon experienced in body contouring after weight loss, so you can develop a surgical plan that matches your goals, recovery time, and budget.
