“The staff here is absolutely amazing! I’ve been coming here for years, and they have been incredibly supportive throughout my entire journey. They helped me recover from a traumatic breast surgery I had years ago from a different provider and I truly appreciate the care and compassion they’ve shown me. Dr. Montante, his wife, and the entire staff have been AMAZING throughout the whole process. They are professional, communicate extremely well, and genuinely make you feel supported and cared for. I’m so grateful I was referred here, and I would highly recommend this practice to anyone considering a procedure!”
“I absolutely adore Shelly! I’ve been going to her for a few years now for tox, and she (as well as Tyler!) always does such a fantastic job. Beyond the results, though, what I appreciate most is how genuine and trustworthy they are. I never feel like they’re trying to sell me on treatments I don’t need or push me to do more—in fact, they’re incredibly honest about what they do and don’t recommend. You can tell their priority is truly helping you feel like the happiest, healthiest, most confident version of yourself. I always leave feeling cared for, never “sold to,” which is so important when it comes to anything cosmetic. I can’t recommend them enough!”
“I absolutely love going to receive my derma plane and peel by Victoria. She is wonderful! I feel pampered and don’t want my session to end. She truly gives a facial, not just a quick peel. I glow for at least a week afterwards. I own a boutique and see customers all day everyday. They compliment my glow and I owe that to Victoria. Thank you!”
“I made an appointment at Montante Plastic Surgery for a facial for my daughter. The aesthetician was Trahzae and she made my daughter feel comfortable and gave great suggestions on how to care for my daughter's skin. Trazhzae is very professional and knowledgeable. I will be taking my daughter back for another facial. 😁 Montante's office was clean and it is such a relaxing atmosphere. The receptionist (sorry I don't remember her name) greetd us upon arriving making us feel welcomed. I would 💯percent recommend this place.”
“I was referred to Dr. Montante by my primary care physician after I had a horrible facial/dermaplaning/chemical peel gone wrong, that turned into a bacterial infection and folliculitis. I was able to get in fairly quickly and the staff from the front desk, to the medical professionals that work for him, to himself- were nothing short but amazing, professional, kind and caring. He was able to quickly diagnose me and give me treatment and I also was able to meet with a medical aesthetician to talk about future treatments. I highly recommend this office and their team!”
