Since 1989, I have dedicated my post-graduate professional life to the study and treatment of both reconstructive and aesthetic plastic surgery.

My expertise has been internationally recognized, and my biography was featured in "Who's Who in the World" from 1999 to 2001. In Milan, I conduct plastic surgery procedures in both day-hospital and hospitalization settings, and I proudly serve as the Medical Director of the plastic surgery complex at the National Cancer Institute, a renowned global research and treatment institution.
