I had my consultation with Dr.Steven Montante and to say it went awesome would be an understatement. I heard good reviews but had no idea how cool and comfortable he made me. I just knew he was the one kinda like when I met my husband lol so I will be scheduling my surgery as soon as they email me the quote. He is confident that I will have good results. Also, he wanted me to be aware he is going to pull everything tight but that is exactly what I want!!! I'm super excited and can't wait!!!!!! If you are anywhere near Richmond VA book a consultation with him you will not be disappointed!!!
I just recieved a breast augmentation from Montante and not only was it the best experience, I got the best results from his trademark techniques. Dr. Montante is the only plastic surgeon that does this special technique- inserting the implant under the facia tissue. This tissue from my knowledge is above the muscle but under the Breast tissue. I will let him go into more detail; however I’m here to tell you that this is the best way to do an implant. I had no actual “pain” during recovery. Recovery consisted of a deep but super manageable soreness. I didn’t have to take a single pain killer. After the initial 3 days that the Anastesia is still in your system, I felt normal again. Awake an coherent. Sleeping more than usual and still a little sore but really mostly just relaxing with minimum movement. At day five i was trying on all my clothes :). At week 2 they are set in place and soft again. Acting like more “normal” breast tissue. All my clothes look way cuter and I feel more feminine than ever. I no longer have to find and wear pushup bras to try and help fill out what was missing. As a female, it’s life changing. Also do to this placement of implant, my breasts will never “jump around” however they do have a perfect natural movement. In fact I don’t even have to wear a bra if I don’t want to. It’s incredible. And because no muscle tissue was touched I will have no problem working out etc after a full 6 weeks of healing time. This method is perfect for every female but also is perfect for females with an active lifestyle. I can’t say enough how happy I am. Everything couldn’t have worked out better. I am so very thankful!!
I recently had breast augmentation and lift by Dr. Montante and I could not have asked for a better experience. He, Shelley and his nurses and staff are like family and you feel it once you walk through the doors. My surgery outcome was even better then expected and they were available for every single question I had no matter what and always with a hug. My friends comment that my recovery in 3 months looks MUCH MUCH better then other friends at a year or later. You can barely see any scarring because of Dr. Montante’s recovery plan. It’s Amazing!!
Dr Montante, Shelly, and the whole staff were wonderful! I had a breast reduction and lift and I couldn’t be happier! The results are so natural looking - while shopping for after surgery bras I was told by the saleswoman (who sees a lot of boobies) that she was really impressed with the work. The after care was awesome too. While you’re going through the process they feel more like friends than staff. I am a huge fan!!!
I had my surgery almost a year ago and I’m very pleased with the outcome. I’d recommend them to my family and friends. They treated me very nicely before and after. Answered all my questions and made me feel comfortable before and after surgery.
I needed a lot of skin tightening after losing 170 lbs. I've now had a neck lift, fdl tt, mastopexy, brachioplasty done by Dr Montante. I've been very satisfied with my results! Scar placement has been fantastic and healing has been good so far.
Dr. Montante is the best! I would recommend him 1000%. I knew from my first consultation that I wanted him to perform my procedure. He was very nice, he answered all my questions, and he didn’t make me feel pressured or uncomfortable about the procedure. He also understood that I wanted a very natural size implant and picked out the perfect size for me. My surgery went great, and it has been about two and a half weeks since the procedure. I’m so so so I love with my breasts and I can’t wait for them to finish healing.
Dr. Montante- and his ENTIRE staff- is a great doctor. I am so pleased with my breast reduction. The pain was minimal and my recovery was not bad. Dr. Montante is personable and no question is too dumb for him! LOL. He immediately put me at ease and my surgery was scheduled very efficiently. Just a great experience and I wish I had my reduction done earlier!
One of cocaine's side effects is to constrict blood vessel, thereby restricting blood flow. In certain circumstances, this can be advantageous, such as in use as a topical anesthetic. However, repeated or regular cocaine use wreaks havoc on the nose because of its effects on blood flow. Many cocaine users develop collapse of their nasal cartilages and develops holes in their septum's because of chronic ischemia. These make rhinoplasty considerably more difficult with higher risk of complication. Even infrequent use can result in trauma to the nasal septum. I would agree 6 months would be a minimum before proceeding with rhinoplasty, and I would insist on a thorough nasal exam to ensure that the nasal septum was structurally intact. Best of luck to you.

I suspect that persistent postoperative swelling is contributing to the inability to visualize your 6 pack. Following abdominoplasty, the ability for the skin and soft tissue to drain extra fluid from swelling are altered. As the soft tissue heals; however, this swelling will dissipate. A tummy tuck may correct separation between the rectus muscles, but it should not cause the muscles to lose mass. In time, as the swelling subsides and you resume your exercise routine/activity levels, your 6 pack should return. Best of luck! Kind regards, Steven J. Montante, MD
Thanks for sharing your photo. Airway and nasal swelling is absolutely to be expected one week following a rhinoplasty. Without physically examining you, it is difficult to determine the nature of the swelling your describing. Based on your photos, the bulging you see in the left nostril (or right from the image above) may be swelling or a portion of the wing like cartilages that make up the tip, columella, and nostrils. I would follow up with your rhinoplasty surgeon and express your concerns. At this point, it is too early to predict your final result. In my practice, I would not consider any revision surgery until at least one year postop. Kind regards, Steven J. Montante, MD
Based on you photos, I think you would be a good candidate for contouring with liposuction alone as part of the BBL procedure. I would recommend consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon with experience in body contouring and liposuction. In addition, I would ask about the location of the surgical procedure, the type of anesthesia being used, and the postoperative care you will receive. Good postoperative management is essential to avoid complication and ensure a great result and experience. Best of luck!
Hello, Given you're history, I'd recommend a small test dose of whatever filler you are interested in, prior to proceeding with a full treatment. Allergic reactions to fillers are rare in the majority of patients. Although you would most likely be fine, I'd take some precautions before proceeding. SJ Montante, MD
