DIEP Flap Reconstruction
This advanced procedure uses abdominal tissue to reconstruct breasts while performing a tummy tuck. Our surgeons specialize in microsurgical techniques that preserve muscle integrity, offering natural results and body contouring benefits. Patients benefit from combined breast restoration and abdominal sculpting in a single operation, with faster recovery compared to traditional methods.
Breast Augmentation
We offer customized augmentation solutions using fat grafting techniques that provide natural volume enhancement. Our specialists prioritize autologous tissue methods when possible, avoiding implants while achieving desired aesthetic goals. Procedures maintain breast tissue integrity while improving shape and symmetry through minimally invasive approaches.
Nipple Reconstruction
This specialized procedure recreates nipple and areola anatomy using local tissue flaps. Our surgeons focus on achieving natural appearance through precise color, texture, and dimensional matching. The process completes breast reconstruction journeys while addressing patient psychological well-being through meticulous attention to detail.
Body Contouring
Comprehensive body sculpting services address excess skin and tissue after weight loss or reconstruction. Our team combines liposuction, skin removal, and muscle tightening techniques to enhance natural contours. Procedures prioritize functional improvement alongside aesthetic results, with particular expertise in post-cancer recovery cases.
Implant Removal
Specialized revision surgery removes implants while restoring natural breast appearance. Our surgeons employ fat grafting and tissue rearrangement techniques to achieve balanced results without replacement implants.

I rarely take the time to write reviews, but I cant say enough positive about Dr. Matthew Mino. His surgical skills are simply phenomenal and unsurpassed!! Dr. Mino performed my explant surgery with excellent precision. Due to health concerns, I sought removal of breast implants along with a total capsulectomy. En bloc which removes the implant with the surrounding capsule (scar tissue) intact - is a delicate, tedious task. Not only did Dr. Mino meticulously perform the surgery successfully, but he also did some muscle repair, and sent my tissue off to pathology. Great results functionally

After a breast cancer diagnosis in 2020 at the age of 39, I underwent a unilateral mastectomy, chemotherapy, and radiation, I came to see Dr Matatov for my PAP flap breast reconstruction in 2021. This was after seeing multiple surgeons who said reconstruction wasnt an option for me. Im one week out from surgery and Im elated at how well my recovery is going and the absolutely masterful work that was done. I still have more surgeries in my future and Im beyond grateful to have Dr Matatov in my corner. He is a gifted surgeon and I would highly recommend him. Every single person Ive
