Inspiration

One of Dr. Minniti’s inspirations for becoming a surgeon was the fictional character “Hawkeye Pierce” played by Alan Alda on the hit television show *MASH* in the 1970s. Beneath his lighthearted, affable exterior was a compassionate and competent doctor devoted to his work. His way of making patients feel comfortable and confident in their time of need is something Dr. Minniti strives for on both a professional and personal level.

Mirror, mirror… 👀✨

An eye refresh can mean something different for everyone. Depending on the anatomy and goals, options may include a brow lift, upper blepharoplasty, lower blepharoplasty, or strategic fat placement to restore volume around areas like the brow bone and under eyes.

The goal isn’t to change your eyes. It’s to create a more refreshed, balanced look that still feels like you.

🧐Move over, let me do it! 
Breast revision is a huge part of my practice, and I want patients to know that it’s okay to try again. If you’re not happy with a previous result, finding a surgeon who understands your anatomy, your concerns, and what you want to achieve can make all the difference.

Sometimes, the next chapter starts with a revision.

Multiple procedures. One surgery. A lot of planning. ✨

When combining surgeries, safety has to be part of the plan from start to finish. That includes maintaining a warm operating room, using prophylaxis to help prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), positioning the patient to promote blood flow back to the heart, and using compression garments throughout recovery.

These measures can help reduce the risk of complications when multiple procedures are performed together.

Her surgery turned out beautifully, and I can’t wait to show you the final results. 👀

Dr. Minniti and his staff are the most awesome people. I have had several surgeries with Dr. Minniti dating back over 10 years and he is the only Doctor I trust to do my procedures. Dr. Minitti has exceptional talent. He is an outstanding surgeon and a very caring person. His work is excellent! Rio, the office manager, is an absolute gem, and all of the staff are so nice. If I could give more stars in this rating, I would. I highly recommend Dr. Minniti to anyone and everyone.

If I could give more stars I would! Dr Minniti’s office has a very welcoming atmosphere to make anyone feel comfortable about any procedure they want done. Ariana was my coordinator and she made everything super simple and easy to follow. I had a breast augmentation with Dr. Minniti about two years ago and it was the BEST decision I ever made. BELIEVE THE HYPE AROUND DR. MINNITI. He answered any and all my questions and helped to make me feel at ease since this was my first ever cosmetic procedure. His work is truly amazing, I opted for a bigger size of implants but Dr Minniti’s work is amazing people tell me that my breasts look so natural! If you’re considering a breast augmentation look no further and book with him!

Got my first breast augmentation with Dr.Minniti in 2018 and absolutely LOVED my results and ended up going back to him three more times for more work on myself! I also got lipo 360 with a BBL and lipo on my arms with skin tightening and could not be more happier. He is so knowledgeable and spectacular at what he does! I love how honest he is and technical. His work is so beautiful and I get so many compliments, makes me just want to keep coming back aha!

Exceptional Care and Expertise Dr. Minniti performed a reconstructive surgery on my right breast in July 2024, and I cannot express enough gratitude for his skill and compassion. I had a history of breast surgeries with other plastic surgeons, some of which led to scary complications. Not only did I need my right breast repaired due to bottoming out, requiring an internal bra and capsulorrhaphy, but I also carried a lot of fear from previous, traumatizing experiences. Dr. Minniti not only addressed my physical concerns with precision and expertise, but he also provided unparalleled compassion and understanding throughout the entire process. He truly listened to my concerns, made me feel heard, and eased my fears every step of the way. The results exceeded my expectations, and I feel whole again, both physically and emotionally. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Minniti to anyone seeking a plastic surgeon who is not only highly skilled but also genuinely cares about their patients. He has truly been a life-changing presence in my journey, and I am forever grateful.

Dr. Minniti has been my Dr for years and I continue to be amazed by his precision and attention to detail with every procedure. He is known for his natural esthetic that has patients looking refreshed versus having had work done. He analyzes and evaluates every area to ensure a symmetrical and flawless approach. The amount of friends and acquaintances I’ve referred him are countless. Dr. Minniti’s pristine craftsmanship speaks for itself and people constantly approach me asking my skin care or beauty routine and the truth is - it’s Dr. Minniti. He’s the ultimate guru for plastic surgery and procedures like Botox and Fillers.
