Body by Mateo
At North Florida Plastic Surgery and Aesthetics, the term “Body by Mateo” has become synonymous with artistry, precision, and natural-looking transformation. Led by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. David Mateo de Acosta, this signature approach to body contouring and breast enhancement is designed to refine your shape while preserving harmony and balance.
With meticulous attention to detail and a passion for individualized care, Dr. Mateo creates results that look beautiful, natural, and uniquely yours.

The Philosophy Behind Body by Mateo
Dr. Mateo believes plastic surgery should enhance, not erase. His philosophy centers on:
- Achieving balance and proportion that fits your natural frame
- Prioritizing techniques that minimize downtime and optimize recovery
- Personalizing every surgical plan
The Body by Mateo is not about a single procedure; it’s about the overall transformation that comes from a thoughtful, artistic approach.
Signature Procedures
While Dr. Mateo performs the full range of cosmetic surgery, certain procedures have become the hallmark of the Body by Mateo brand:
High-Definition Liposuction & Fat Grafting
Through advanced liposuction techniques, Dr. Mateo sculpts the body to highlight natural curves and muscle definition. Fat can be harvested and transferred to other areas, such as the hips, breasts, or buttocks, to create smooth, contoured lines.
Minimally Invasive Subglandular Breast Augmentation
Dr. Mateo specializes in rapid recovery breast augmentation using the subglandular placement technique (over the muscle, under the breast tissue). With advanced methods and modern implants such as Motiva and Natrelle, he helps patients achieve fuller, softer breasts with less discomfort and downtime.
Body Contouring After Weight Loss
For patients who have undergone massive weight loss, Dr. Mateo designs comprehensive surgical plans to remove excess skin and restore confidence. These procedures are carefully tailored to support both comfort and long-term results.
Renuvion® Skin Tightening
Renuvion® is one of Dr. Mateo’s go-to technologies for patients who want firmer, more youthful-looking skin without the downtime of traditional surgery. This minimally invasive treatment uses plasma energy to contract tissues beneath the skin, creating a smoother, tighter appearance. It’s often paired with liposuction for enhanced body contouring results, helping patients achieve more definition and refinement in problem areas. With Renuvion®, Dr. Mateo delivers natural-looking skin tightening that continues to develop as the skin heals and collagen production increases.
Avéli™ Cellulite Reduction
Cellulite is one of the most common concerns for women, even those at their ideal weight. Avéli™ is a cutting-edge, FDA-cleared treatment that directly targets the structural causes of cellulite with precision. In just one minimally invasive procedure, Dr. Mateo can release the fibrous bands beneath the skin that cause dimpling, creating smoother, more even skin texture. Unlike creams or temporary treatments, Avéli™ addresses cellulite at its root for long-lasting results. Patients who want to pair body contouring with smoother skin often choose this treatment as part of their Body by Mateo journey.

My operation was to remove my implants that were encapsulated and put in new ones. Although other doctors don’t like to fix this type of thing, Dr. Mateo always said yes and was always very realistic and honest with me. I am happy with my results. I recommend him 100%.
