Dr Scherer – Expert in Facial Rejuvenation and Breast Surgery

“Every patient is unique. I take the time to listen to your expectations and understand your vision of yourself, so that together we can define the most suitable solution. My goal: to reveal the best version of yourself, always respecting your individuality, with safety as the top priority.

Why a personalized consultation? Online information and before/after photos often give the illusion of simple answers. Yet after an in-depth consultation, nearly 70% of patients change their initial treatment choice. That’s why a personalized consultation is essential: it protects patients from inappropriate decisions and allows for safe, precise, and truly beneficial treatment.”

Dr Scherer specializes in breast surgery and facial rejuvenation, particularly around the eyes. Her techniques include mid-facelift, temporal and brow lifting, simple and complex eyelid surgery, microlipofilling, and advanced regenerative methods such as nanofat, SVF, peels, and laser, restoring youthfulness, harmony, and skin texture while aiming for a natural and lasting rejuvenation.

Dr Scherer works closely with Dr Pietramaggiori. Most procedures are performed together, combining their super-specialties: he for face and neck lifting, she for targeted and minimally invasive techniques. This collaboration enables complete, precise, and harmonious rejuvenation, with the benefit of a dual expert opinion.
