Studio Medico Associato Cardone has been part of the plastic surgery landscape in Italy since 1988. For more than three decades, the practice has remained faithful to a simple principle: every patient deserves natural results, careful technique and a relationship built on trust. This consistency has earned the studio a loyal following of patients, many of whom return over the years and recommend the practice to friends and family.
Today the studio is led by two plastic surgeons who share the same values and the same commitment to quality. One founded the practice and has guided it from the beginning; the other joined in 2002, bringing new energy and continuity. Together they combine decades of experience with a constant desire to improve, update and refine their methods.
The studio's atmosphere is calm, private and welcoming. Consultations take place by appointment only, so every patient receives unhurried attention and never feels rushed. This organisation reflects the practice's belief that good care begins with time, listening and respect.
Patients appreciate the sense of continuity that comes from a practice with such a long history. They know they are entering a place where standards have been tested over many years and where every member of the team shares the same dedication to their wellbeing.
More Than Three Decades of Care
Since its foundation in 1988, the studio has accompanied thousands of patients through decisions that touched deeply on their comfort and self-confidence. Over these years, surgical techniques have evolved, technology has advanced and patients' expectations have changed, yet the studio's core values have remained the same.
Longevity in medicine is not simply a matter of time. It reflects the ability to adapt, to learn and to maintain the trust of patients across generations. The studio has achieved this by combining respect for proven methods with openness to innovation.
• Founded in 1988
• More than thirty years of continuous activity
• Loyal patients across generations
• Respect for proven methods
• Openness to innovation
Many patients first came to the studio decades ago and now bring their children or friends. This continuity is one of the practice's proudest achievements and a clear sign of the trust it has earned.
The studio's history is also a source of perspective. Having observed how results evolve over many years, the surgeons understand which approaches remain satisfying in the long term and which fade. They use this knowledge to recommend solutions that will continue to look natural as patients age.
Throughout this long history, the studio has also maintained a strong ethical commitment. The surgeons believe that patients deserve truthful information, realistic expectations and the freedom to decide without pressure. They advise against procedures that would not genuinely benefit the person and encourage patients to take all the time they need before committing.
Patients therefore benefit from experience gained over a remarkably long period, combined with a genuine desire to keep improving.
Two Surgeons, One Tradition
The two plastic surgeons who lead the studio work in close collaboration. They discuss complex cases together, share knowledge and ensure that every patient benefits from consistent standards of care. This partnership combines the experience of the founder with the fresh perspective of a colleague who joined more than twenty years ago and has since become an integral part of the practice.
Both surgeons are committed to continuous professional development, following scientific progress, attending courses and meetings and evaluating new techniques carefully before introducing them.
• Two plastic surgeons working in close collaboration
• Joint discussion of complex cases
• Consistent standards across the practice
• Continuous professional development
• Careful evaluation of new techniques
Working as a team also ensures continuity and availability. Patients can count on a specialist being reachable for questions and follow-up, and they know that their case is understood in depth by both surgeons.
This collaboration has also allowed the studio to grow without losing its personal character. Each patient continues to enjoy a direct relationship with their surgeon, supported by the shared experience of the whole team.
The arrival of the second surgeon in 2002 marked an important moment in the studio's history. It ensured continuity for the future, broadened the range of expertise available and allowed the practice to welcome more patients without compromising the personal attention for which it is known. The two specialists complement each other, sharing a common method while bringing individual strengths to the team.
Laser Expertise and Modern Technology
Laser surgery has been an area of expertise at the studio for many years. Laser technology allows precise treatment of a variety of skin concerns with reduced downtime, and the surgeons use it both as a standalone option and as a complement to surgical procedures.
The studio invests in modern equipment and keeps its technology up to date, always choosing tools for their safety, effectiveness and reliability. Every device is used by experienced professionals who understand its benefits and limits.
• Long-standing expertise in laser surgery
• Precise treatments with reduced downtime
• Modern, regularly updated equipment
• Technology chosen for safety and reliability
• Use by experienced professionals
Aesthetic medicine complements this offer, providing gentle, minimally invasive improvements for patients who prefer to avoid surgery or wish to maintain their results over time. Every non-surgical treatment is performed with the same attention to safety as surgery.
The choice between surgical, laser and non-surgical options is always made together with the patient. The surgeons explain what each approach can realistically achieve, how long results last and what maintenance may be needed, so patients can make informed decisions that suit their lifestyle and expectations.
Personal Attention by Appointment
Every journey at the studio begins with a detailed consultation. The surgeons listen carefully to each patient's wishes, examine the area of concern and explain the available options, including benefits, limits, risks and recovery. They are always honest when a procedure is not the right choice and are happy to suggest less invasive alternatives.
Because the studio works by appointment only, consultations are never hurried. Patients have time to ask every question, to reflect and to return for further discussion if they wish.
• Consultations by appointment only
• Unhurried, detailed discussions
• Honest advice and realistic expectations
• Time to reflect before deciding
• Clear explanations of costs and recovery
For added convenience, patients can also be seen at a second practice location, making consultations and follow-up visits easier to fit into daily life.
Privacy is protected at every step. Appointments are organised with discretion, personal information is handled with the utmost confidentiality and every conversation takes place in a calm, respectful setting.
Surgical procedures take place in accredited, well-equipped facilities with experienced anaesthesia teams. Before surgery, patients receive detailed preparation instructions; after surgery, they know exactly whom to contact and when their follow-up visits will take place. This careful organisation allows them to focus on resting and healing with complete peace of mind.
Follow-up continues until patients are fully satisfied with their result. The surgeons check progress at key stages of healing, adjust care when necessary and remain available for questions between visits.
Patients are also welcome to bring a trusted companion to their consultations. The team understands that support from family or friends can make decisions easier and recovery more serene, and it does everything possible to make companions feel welcome as well. Questions from relatives are answered with the same patience and clarity offered to patients themselves.
