I feel like I am in the best shape of my life! - I first went to Dr. Fontana for Botox and fillers when she was at Mount Sinai Hospital in NYC. After being disappointed with other doctors, I knew I was lucky to have discovered Dr. Fontana; she always provided me with amazing results!By the time I decided to finally pull the trigger and have permanent procedures done, Dr. Fontana had moved on for a Fellowship, but it was a no-brainer that I needed to travel and follow her for my desired plastic surgeries. I knew I trusted the skills of Dr. Fontana more than any other doctor I have encountered, and I can 1000% affirm that I was right to! These were my first surgeries of any kind, so of course I was still initially nervous, but there is something about Dr. Fontana’s very caring demeanor that so easily puts me at ease, and I knew I was in good hands. Most importantly, I had seen Dr. Fontana’s work and it is clear that she is an extremely talented surgeon! My results somehow even exceeded my expectations!!!Okay, now for the details:I am 41 years old (40 years old at time of the surgeries), athletic (run marathons and do crossfit), but have some stubborn areas of my body that were only getting worse with age, even with diet and exercise. I have included several before and after pictures, with the after pictures being about 2.5 months post-op. I had always been unhappy with the excess fat below my chin and the increasingly excess tissue above my eyelids. I had also previously had Dr. Fontana do fillers to better define my cheekbones. To finally permanently address these areas I was unhappy with, Dr. Fontana performed liposuction under my chin, upper blepharoplasty, and fat grafting to my cheekbones. I feel like these three procedures took 10 years off my face! I did not experience any pain or discomfort from any of these procedures, and wearing the compression for a few weeks under my chin was not bad at all (I would literally forget I was wearing it sometimes!). Obviously, I am extremely happy with my results! I know I am holding my head higher as it has rejuvenated my self-confidence; I even cut my hair short to accentuate these features I previously tried to hide!My family genetics cause me to retain excess fat around my midsection, which again was only getting worse with age, despite diet and exercise. Since I have been doing crossfit since my late 20s, several years ago I was close to seeing some markings of defined abs, but they were fading under my expanding “love handles”. My self-esteem was also decreasing as I was no longer able to fit into more and more of the clothes I loved. Dr. Fontana addressed my specific concerns, and gave me back my positive body image, by performing liposuction on flanks and abdominal etching. Dr. Fontana’s work DRASTICALLY exceeded my expectations! It is crazy that now, at 41 years old, I feel like I am in the best shape of my life!!! I have never felt so confident in my body! As an unexpected bonus, being so happy in my body has made me even more motivated to maintain a healthy lifestyle, which I am very happy about! As for recovery, while there were a few weeks of swelling that could get a little uncomfortable at times, the compression really helped and I was only on pain killers for 2 days, so not a bad recovery at all.If anyone is questioning if they should choose Dr. Fontana, my advice would be to stop questioning and get an appointment with her ASAP!!! I feel like my pictures of her work speak for themselves; you will not be disappointed! My only regret is waiting as long as I did to finally set up my procedures…I’m kicking myself for not making the appointment to rejuvenate myself sooner!

I’m always pleased with the placement of Botox that Dr.Vandiver has given me. He is the most kind, patient and professional doctor.

While I’d love to gate keep and not tell everyone how amazing Dr Vandiver is, I can’t. If you haven’t seen him for a consultation or injectables, you’re missing out on the best there is in this area. He’s kind, personable, knowledgeable, considerate, and most importantly highly skilled. I leave every appointment 100% confident I made the right choice.

Dr. Vandiver was so thorough and polite, answering all of my questions. It was my first visit to him for Botox and he did an amazing job. He will definitely be my go to for treatments.
