PLASTIC & COSMETIC SURGEON MD, FACS
With over 30+ years in plastic and reconstructive surgery, Dr. Andy John Winthrop provides unique cosmetic surgery and patient-focused services to the local and international community. He offers experienced, highly skilled, and individualized care in all phases of plastic surgery rejuvenation for the breast, body, and face as well as non-surgical treatments.
In the hands of Dr. Andy John Winthrop, MD, FACS, facial rejuvenation is more than a set of procedures—it is a bespoke architectural plan for the face. Dr. Winthrop leverages his 30+ years of surgical expertise to offer a comprehensive spectrum of treatments, ranging from definitive surgical transformations to the latest in non-invasive technology.
Whether you are looking to dramatically reverse the signs of aging or subtly "pre-juvenate" your skin, our Winthrop, MA facility provides a safe, clinical, and artistic environment for your journey.
For patients seeking a significant and long-lasting correction of sagging skin and deep-set wrinkles, Dr. Winthrop’s Facelift (Rhytidectomy) is the gold standard.
The Approach: Dr. Winthrop focuses on the underlying muscular structure (the SMAS layer), not just the skin. This prevents the "wind-tunnel" or "pulled" look, ensuring your results are natural and fluid.
The Goal: Restoring a crisp jawline, lifting the mid-face, and smoothing the neck to reflect a version of you from ten to fifteen years ago.
Not every aesthetic goal requires an operating room. Dr. Winthrop has curated a suite of high-performance non-surgical treatments to address texture, volume, and tone.
Opus Plasma™ Laser
As a leader in aesthetic innovation, Dr. Winthrop utilizes the Opus Laser, a first-of-its-kind fractional plasma technology.
What it does: It bridges the gap between a light chemical peel and a full ablative CO2 laser.
The Result: Significant improvement in skin laxity and "crepey" texture with a fraction of the downtime of traditional lasers.
Dermal & Lip Fillers
Volume loss is a primary driver of visible aging. Dr. Winthrop uses premium hyaluronic acid fillers to restore what time has taken away.
Dermal Fillers: Sculpting high cheekbones, softening nasolabial folds, and filling hollowed temples.
Lip Filler: Dr. Winthrop is known for "The Natural Pout"—focusing on hydration and subtle definition rather than over-inflation.
Micro-needling
Often referred to as Collagen Induction Therapy, this treatment stimulates your body’s natural healing response.
The Benefit: Ideal for refining skin texture, reducing the appearance of large pores, and fading acne scars or fine lines.
Chemical Peels
From "lunchtime" glows to deep medical-grade resurfacing, our chemical peels are customized to your skin type.
The Benefit: Effectively removes damaged outer layers of skin to reveal a brighter, more even-toned complexion underneath.
The face is a delicate landscape of nerves and vessels. Choosing a Board-Certified Surgeon like Dr. Winthrop for your non-surgical injectables and laser treatments ensures a level of anatomical knowledge that a standard med-spa simply cannot match. At our practice, every injection and laser pulse is backed by decades of surgical experience.
At Andy John Winthrop Plastic & Aesthetic Surgery, we understand that a breast procedure is often the final step in a journey toward self-confidence. Since 1990, Dr. Andy John Winthrop has combined a deep understanding of female and male anatomy with the highest standards of surgical safety to deliver results that are both beautiful and life-changing.
Located in Winthrop, MA, our practice offers a full suite of breast procedures tailored to your specific physical goals and lifestyle.
Breast Augmentation
Designed for women who desire increased volume, improved symmetry, or a more shapely silhouette. Dr. Winthrop utilizes the latest FDA-approved silicone and saline implants, focusing on a "natural-feel" placement that complements your unique frame.
Breast Lift (Mastopexy)
Over time, factors like pregnancy, weight loss, and aging can cause skin to lose elasticity. Dr. Winthrop performs a meticulous lift to remove excess skin and reposition the nipple-areolar complex, restoring a youthful, firmer contour to the chest.
Breast Lift with Augmentation
For the patient who wants it all: height and volume. This combined procedure addresses both sagging (ptosis) and loss of fullness in a single surgical session, providing a comprehensive "internal bra" effect and a rejuvenated profile.
Periareolar Breast Lift (The "Donut" Lift)
For patients with mild to moderate sagging, Dr. Winthrop offers the Periareolar Lift.
The Technique: Incisions are made strictly around the edge of the areola.
The Benefit: This technique results in minimal scarring while effectively lifting the breast and, if necessary, reducing the size of the areola for a more proportionate look.
Breast Revision
Whether you are looking to change your implant size, replace older implants, or correct issues from a previous surgery elsewhere, Dr. Winthrop’s 30+ years of experience makes him a specialist in complex revision cases. He focuses on restoring both the aesthetic and the structural integrity of the breast.
Breast Reduction
Large breasts can cause chronic back, neck, and shoulder pain, as well as skin irritation. Dr. Winthrop performs reductions to remove excess glandular tissue and skin, creating a lighter, more proportionate breast that allows for a more active and pain-free life.
Male Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia Surgery)
Enlarged breast tissue in men can be a source of significant discomfort and self-consciousness. Dr. Winthrop utilizes a combination of liposuction and direct tissue excision to sculpt a flatter, firmer, and more masculine chest contour.
FACS Precision: As a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons, Dr. Winthrop adheres to a rigorous code of ethics and surgical excellence that ensures your safety is the top priority.
Decades of Data: Having established his Winthrop practice in 1990, Dr. Winthrop has a deep portfolio of successful outcomes, giving him the "surgical eye" necessary for complex symmetry corrections.
Bespoke Consultations: No "cookie-cutter" surgeries. Every plan is hand-crafted during a private, one-on-one session with the Chief Surgeon himself.
"A successful breast transformation isn't just about changing a size—it's about restoring the harmony of the entire body."

Body Contouring
Body contouring is the art of refining the human form by removing stubborn pockets of fat, tightening lax skin, and restoring muscle tone. At Andy John Winthrop Plastic & Aesthetic Surgery, Dr. Andy John Winthrop utilizes over 35 years of surgical mastery to help patients in Winthrop, MA, achieve the proportions they’ve worked hard for but haven't been able to reach through diet and exercise alone.
Since 1990, our practice has been a leader in both traditional surgical sculpting and cutting-edge radiofrequency technology.
Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
For many, the midsection is the most difficult area to reclaim after pregnancy or significant weight loss.
The Process: Dr. Winthrop removes excess skin and fat while surgically tightening the underlying abdominal muscles (rectus diastasis) that may have separated.
The Result: A flatter, firmer, and more toned abdominal profile.
Liposuction (Suction-Assisted Lipectomy)
Liposuction remains the gold standard for targeted fat removal. Dr. Winthrop uses specialized cannulas to precisely sculpt areas such as the flanks (love handles), thighs, arms, and chin, creating a more streamlined appearance.
Mommy Makeover
This is a customized combination of procedures designed to address the specific physical changes that follow childbirth. Typically, a Mommy Makeover pairs a Tummy Tuck with a Breast Lift or Augmentation, allowing for a comprehensive rejuvenation in a single recovery period.
Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)
For those seeking a more curvaceous lower body, Dr. Winthrop performs the BBL - a natural alternative to implants.
The Technique: Fat is harvested via liposuction from areas like the abdomen or thighs, purified, and then strategically re-injected into the buttocks.
The Benefit: You achieve a "two-in-one" result: a slimmer waist and a fuller, lifted posterior.
Panniculectomy
Unlike a cosmetic tummy tuck, a panniculectomy is a functional procedure focused on removing the "pannus"—a large apron of redundant skin and fat that hangs below the beltline, often following massive weight loss. This procedure is vital for improving hygiene, mobility, and physical comfort.
Brachioplasty (Arm Lift)
If "bat wings" or sagging upper arm skin is a concern, an arm lift can help. Dr. Winthrop removes the excess tissue from the underarm to the elbow, resulting in a lean, defined arm contour that looks great in sleeveless attire.
BodyTite™ (Radiofrequency Assisted Lipolysis)
For patients who want surgical-grade results without the long scars of an excisional lift, we offer BodyTite.
How it Works: This minimally invasive technology uses radiofrequency energy to liquefy fat and—most importantly—contract the skin from the inside out.
The Benefit: It provides significant skin tightening with minimal downtime, perfect for the abdomen, arms, or thighs.
Safety First: As an FACS surgeon, Dr. Winthrop maintains the highest safety protocols, particularly in complex procedures like the BBL and Tummy Tuck.
The "Internal Bra" & Muscle Repair: Dr. Winthrop doesn't just "pull skin tight." He repairs the internal structures to ensure your results are stable and long-lasting.
Bespoke Sculpting: We believe in "High-Definition" results sculpting the body in a way that highlights your natural musculature and frame.
Established Excellence: With a practice established in 1990, we have seen the evolution of body contouring and only offer technologies (like BodyTite) that are proven to be safe and effective.
"Body contouring isn't about fitting into a specific size; it's about making sure your reflection finally matches the strength and hard work you feel on the inside."
