I am a physician from South Florida who flew to Birmingham, Alabama just so I could visit Dr…read moreWilliam Hedden at the Hedden Plastic Surgery Center and have the "miraDry" procedure performed on myself, as quite honestly, I sweat profusely and after I heard him lecture on this topic at a medical conference, I wanted to have this procedure performed on myself to stop my underarm sweat and odor. As every physician knows, doctors make the worst patients, and I was on my best behavior to avoid being one of those patients that every doctor hates to see when they walk into the treatment room. So, after a flight to Birmingham and a night at the Grand Bohemian Hotel Mountain Brook, I took an Uber to the Hedden Plastic Surgery Center and was the first patient of the day. Upon arrival, the office and surgical suite was stunningly beautiful and modern that could rival any medical office in the country. I was greeted by a friendly staff, and completed my paperwork on one of their computers. I was taken into an examination room, given a full informed consent and explanation of the miraDry procedure. Truth be told, I already did some research before hand via one of his nurses and was well prepared to have the procedure performed. I had the pleasure to have Wynn work on me and she was an outstanding medical nurse that has performed the miraDry procedure many times. After a local anesthesia that I barley felt, the miraDry procedure is like a handheld wand that uses miraWave energy that targets and destroys sweat and odor glands in your underarm. Once those glands are destroyed they do not grow back so that means once they are gone, they are gone for good. The entire procedure took about 45 minuted each side and I had pretty much zero pain and took a Uber to the airport to travel home. The only challenge was trying to keep the ice packs under each armpit and travel on a plane, so if I had to do it again, I would have spend another night in Alabama and leave the next day. So there you go, I had the miraDry procedure performed on myself and now I get to write a Yelp review about an embarrassing medical condition I have (well technically I am cured now so the correct word is "had" and I am glad I did it). The day after and next few days after the procedure were not bad at all, other than some significant swelling in my underarms that made me look like I was at the gym, and there was some mild redness. I really had no pain, no complications, and would 100% recommend this procedure and Dr Hedden to anyone that has excessive underarm sweating or odor. I am sure that there are other doctors and medical centers that offer this procedure, but I decided to go to Dr Hedden as I felt he was a world class expert in this procedure and after hearing him lecture and spend some time in his office, I am super happy I traveled to see him and his staff --- he deserves my 5 star rating on Yelp.

That person had to take the day off, arrange for coverage, rearrange a tight schedule to meet after much research. Go from building to building to even find this place.

I see doctor Rousso himself, and what's amazing about him, is he is not afraid to push back or tell me the truth if I want to do something he doesn't agree with.

So what was quoted at $14K is actually over $28K. Never would have wasted $200 or my time if they had been honest up front.

To me, it is challenging to find a plastic surgeon you can so trust. Especially one who will determine the outcome of your looks, self esteem etc. I certainly do not want to end up on Botched!

The office staff is extremely professional, friendly and makes you feel at home so to speak. Although, I'm still healing from my breast reduction procedure, I highly recommend Dr Cohn as his attention to specific detail is working to my benefit. No more neck or back pain.

The tummy tuck was botched so badly i had to go back and have the whole thing re done only six weeks later. I wanted a mini tuck but he messed it up so badly i was cut from hip bone to hip bone 6 weeks later . Dr Oliver told my family in the waiting area that he shouldn't have even done it because I didn't really need it done. They were absolutely taken back from what he said and asked well why did you do it...... I also had asked him to do light lipo on the sides of my knees and he took it upon himself "to break up the fat " on the fronts of my thighs, well now I pay for that little extra daily!!! You can't do lipo on the fronts of your thighs and expect them to look good , it caused severe sagging, and they haven't looked good since. While i was trying to wake up from the anesthesia, which he himself told me i got too much, one of the nurses pulled me up to a sitting position by my arms { which was VERY painful after just having breast implants!!} and she proceeded to say ( wake up we are ready to go and you have to get up ) I tried my best to do as she asked but i was still just too sleepy. This being said Please think twice and do your research before letting someone do a tummy tuck on you. He was recommended to me by a breast specialist in Birmingham after having to have a large amount of tissue removed from one of my breast ( which is still a size smaller than the other one) , His nurse tried to tell him two times that i had a good amount of muscle removed and that breast probably needed to go a size larger than the other one but he didn't listen so now I still have a smaller breast but the indention from the removal of the muscle is gone. I just wish i would have done my research instead of trusting someone elses opinion.
