At 66 years old I was past the recommended age for a mini facelift, but general anesthetic was not an option I wanted to consider. I interviewed several surgeons, but found Dr. Mele to be the best for several reasons. Dr. Mele listens, really listens. He pays careful attention to what you say as well as what you don't say. He discusses the procedure's pros and cons with you, taking whatever time needed to make sure there is clarity in the decision one makes. He does not use a general one size fits all approach, rather he celebrates our uniqueness and strives to satisfy individual goals. Dr. Mele pays careful attention to detail and above all, he is an excellent surgeon. Dr. Mele's staff is caring, compassionate and understanding. I am ecstatic with the results. My mini facelift is such a boost to my self-esteem. When I look in the mirror, I recognize myself. I highly recommend Dr. Mele.

I recently had breast revision . Capsular contracture removal. It has been one month out and I am very happy with my results. My implants look very good with a natural feel and sensation. Dr. Mele spent extra time explaining options to me. I did a lot of research on which Doctor I would go with . After five different consults I decided upon Dr. Mele . I am very satisfied. My results are better than I even expected. Caring staff too. I felt very comfortable throughout the process. Well done and worth the time and effort. Happy again!!

I went for a consult only. ABsolutely amazing knowledge. The best bedside manner of all of my consults. Down to earth. Explained entire procedure. Not egotistical like the other surgeons I saw. Only downfall is that he was the most expensive- $6000 more expensive than the other 2 consults I received for the same procedure but I may just go back to him because of the above listed items. The other downfall is that he does his surgery at a surgery center in Concord. From being in the medical field I would dislike immensely being in a surgery center where you are just a random patient to the staff.
