The Best Plastic Surgeon !
Dr. Schantz is the only surgeon who will ever perform plastics on me ever. I had a tummy tuck in 2019 which still looks perfect. I just had a breast implant switch out and essentially a reconstruction of right breast from bottoming out from another surgeon’s mistakes. I am currently on day two post op and very happy with my results so far. I got mentor high profile 480cc with galloped internal bra on right breast due to muscle damage from previous surgeon. Dr schantz has the

Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) and lipo
Today I paid for my deposit, I'm scheduled for my surgery December 8, 2023. Super excited and nervous. This is how I currently look. I'm 5"3 and my weight is 146. But I'm hoping to get down to 140 before my surgery. I can't wait to see my results. Updated on 3 Mar 2023: Yesterday I finally made my tummy tuck deposit to schedule my surgery. It went great and of course I love the doctor I picked, I have went to him before for my boob job. He's definitely amazing. I'm super nervous

19 Year Old, 375cc, Under the Muscle Implant Removal
I had a BA at the age of 17 (saline-375cc). I enjoyed having larger breasts for many years, but as an adult my priorities were different and I no longer wanted implants. I was actually freaked out knowing I had something foreign in my body. Although I never really had any issues, I made the decision I wanted to explant. Once I make a decision to do something, I don’t waste any time! I had a few consultations in April/May and had the procedure 5/20/19. I chose Dr. Schantz and he
Great Surgeon with Great Outcome
Steve is the consummate professional. I have had several procedures in this office and have always been VERY pleased with the results. Steve did a tummy tuck and lipo and I have been SO happy! The office staff are VERY professional! Having been in healthcare myself for sixteen years I wouldn't look anywhere else. Steve is a compassionate caregiver, responsive, he has a good eye for the outcome and his results are very natural feeling. 5 Stars all around!!

21 y/o, no kids, 130 lbs, 470 ccs Small B to D
I always felt that I was bottom heavy, more mass in my hips and thighs compared to my chest. I wanted to even that out especially when I started lifting and building muscle. I felt that BA surgery would be worth the cost and time for recovery, and it absolutely was! I was down for about a week (horrible depression as well) but after that the pain subsided and I’m almost back to normal 3 weeks later. So far, most of the swelling and bruising and gone away but the implants are

Magical surgeon and office-- 33 year old mother of 3-- tummy tuck
To sum up my experience with Dr. Schantz I would have to describe it as perfect. He took my floppy stomach and made me look nearly perfect again !! He gave me a new life and for that I am forever thankful. Updated on 16 Feb 2019: Recovery going well. Still swelled and puffy but here is an updated picture. So pleased. Wearing my abdominal binder, keeping incision clean, got my drainage tube taken out 7 days post op, and trying to alternate periods of resting and activity. Every
