Our Facial Plastic Surgery Specialists
If you want the best facelift, rhinoplasty, or other procedure, your surgeon may not be in Buffalo, NY. Many people have discovered it’s well worth driving to Rochester, NY, to have the utmost confidence in their choice of a facial plastic surgeon. Our team includes three exceptional surgeons who focus exclusively on cosmetic procedures of the face, head, and neck.
Dr. Vito Quatela
Our founder, Dr. Quatela, is a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon and a board-certified hair transplant surgeon. A past president of the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, he is recognized both nationally and internationally for his expertise in facial plastic surgery by physicians and patients alike.
“I am a physician (in my late 40’s) and live around 2 hrs from Dr. Quatela. I’ve had both injectable and surgical procedures from Dr Q. I researched the best plastic surgeons in the US and was willing travel for the right surgeon. I learned that Dr. Q. is nationally well known and has trained some of the top surgeons in the “big cities”. If you are looking for work on your face, then see a plastic facial surgeon that only works on the face and neck.”
