About me

About me

Born in 1987 in Frankfurt, Germany, I spent my childhood between the USA, Germany and Italy. Therefore, I grew up speaking fluently three languages. Afterwards, I completed my studies in medicine at the renowned University of Genoa (Italy).

My passion for precise, craftsmanship and attention to detail ultimately led to my specialization in the field of plastic, aesthetic and reconstructive surgery. In 2019 I completed my residency training at one of the largest plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic surgery departments in the German-speaking area. During my training at the Medical University of Graz (Austria), I spent a long training period in Texas (USA), at the same time during further training periods in Italy, I had the opportunity to collaborate with world-renowned plastic surgeons such as Dr. Alessandro Gualdi, from whom I was able to learn.

After completing my residency and PhD at the Medical University of Graz (Austria), I continue to deepen my knowledge and skills by attending a master’s degree in aesthetic and functional surgery of the face and nose at the University Tor Vergata in Rome (Italy).

My passion and specialization in plastic surgery mainly concerns facial surgery, with particular attention to facelift techniques and nasal corrections to offer my patients always harmonious and aesthetic results.

I currently work as a partner at the Milano Face Institute in Milan (Italy) together with Dr. Gualdi and in my private practice in the heart of Vienna (Austria).

In addition to my medical work, I have had the opportunity to give countless presentations at conferences around the world over the years

I have also written, as an author, over 40 scientific articles published in plastic surgery journals and several book chapters, reviewing articles for various specialized journals, including the renowned journal “Plastic Reconstructive Surgery”.
