I am over a year out from multiple procedures with Dr. Michaels -- including a lower body lift, arm…read morelift, breast lift with fat transfer, thigh lift, and upper back lift -- and I could not be happier with the results. I traveled from North Carolina to work with Dr. Michaels because I knew long before my consultation that he was the surgeon I wanted to trust with my transformation. The wait to see him was absolutely worth it. The level of skill and artistry Dr. Michaels brought to my surgeries has completely changed my confidence, comfort, and quality of life. After losing over 200 lbs, I can now wear clothes I never imagined, move more freely, and finally feel at home in my body. My scars are healing beautifully -- the work is stunning -- and I am proud of them because they are truly beautiful. My overall shape feels natural, balanced, and strong, and I am proud of the transformation. If you're looking for a surgeon who combines technical excellence with genuine care, I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Michaels.

Best dermatologist experience I've ever had! Dr. Edwards is…read moregenuinely concerned and vested in you as a patient. When visiting dermatologists in the past, I would often spend more time with the nurse than the actual doctor. Dr. Edwards entered the room, sat and listened to my acne life story from beginning to end. Her genuine concern and determination to provide a lasting solution was so comforting. The initial regimen she subscribed didn't provide the results she was satisfied with, so on the next few visits she tweaked the regimen until she was satisfied with the results. But the visits weren't all about her satisfaction! Dr. Edwards informed me that she was quite the perfectionist and told me to slow her down or say pause if it seemed like she was seeking perfection beyond my comfort zone. As months went by, my face totally cleared up. I've suffered with acne off and on since I was 15 years old and my face has NEVER looked this good. I've had a clear face before, but there would always be bumps under the surface. My complexion is as close to flawless as I've ever experienced. In my first visit, I was almost in tears due to the severity of my acne. I would cry myself to sleep each night and didn't want to leave the house during the day. My most recent visit to Dr. Edwards left both of us hugging each other and feeling relieved at how much my life had changed as a result of her efforts to clear my skin. I will pay any amount of money to continue seeing Dr. Edwards.

I awoke to a jagged scar which obviously was not the work of a plastic surgeon or Friedman did it in haste juggling 2 surgeries in tandem. He did lipo on the wrong side of my abdomen . Dr Friedman told me to come back and have a thermage treatment and charged me. It did nothing. Dr Friedman accepted no responsibility.The drainage hole was a hack job.He refused to put a stitch in it. When I went for my post op he removed the tube and refused to repair the jagged hole.I have an unnecessarily visible scar that could have been closed properly. His nurse shook her head when he left the room and concurred that he is arrogant. Dr Friedman you leave the future world a better place. You are a hack. I wish you had done it long ago . I can only imagine the hoards of people you have left in your wake of substandard work and substandard attitude.

Dear Dr. Roger Friedman…read more I want to send you this email that just let you know I am a very unhappy patient. I don't know what is other way to descript myself since the beginning after the procedure unfortunately. As a plastic surgeon you are you should know clearly what a patient needs and/or wants and what and how you can do to have at least an acceptable result at the end of the surgery even I was willing to come back to have you to correct the problems but nothing changes. I have never seen that ugly look on my body in my adulthood. If you will look at my file and pictures before and after, you can tell more. When I first came for a consultation, you told me how nice it would be and also told me if I wouldn't like the result you would help me to do till I would be happy. You gained my trust and now all that became disappointed and I have to live with it for the rest my life. You understand how important it is to females in general, BEAUTY is everything and I am one of them. Second, you told me nothing you could do more to help me to the way we were first discussed it, just let me go in a way you don't care. Not only you lost my trust but also irresponsible plastic surgeon. I wasted my time, cost, and the trust I have in you. I have to see my body every day like this. Do you think OK?

After 2 years of doing research for a reliable and respectful cosmetic surgeon to perform a lower…read moreblehp procedure, I decided to proceed with CSA and Dr. Magge. Based on photos of his prior patients, I found his work to be exactly what I was looking for and after our in-person meeting, I did feel comfortable to proceed. I had the procedure done in the beginning of October, the recovery process was much more intense than I had thought. A week after my procedure, I had a follow-up check up, after waking up at 4:00am and driving 3 hours, Dr. Magge did not meet with me, his assistant did. Had I known that would be the case, I would have done a video conference call. She said everything looked fine. After 3 weeks, I still had severe bruising and was swollen. I also noticed one of my eyes were droopy and it was the opposite eye of my eye that actually did droop all of my life. I called the office to ask if the healing process was normal and they said it was. When I mentioned it to the assistant, she had mentioned a "push-up" method but said Dr. Magge would let me know if I should try and he never did. Also, there is a scar of when he did the procedure, not on my eyelid but underneath. I have been using scar medication every day for 2 months to try and make it less visible. The scars are not horrible but def. noticeable. It's a 'light' noticable line scarring under the eyes. They were supposed to reach out after 3 months to see if extra fat graphing was needed or any revisions and have yet to hear back. They never reached out to see if i was okay or even satisfied w/ the work done AFTER I was fully healed. My eyelid healed with a funny shape. The pinch method only seem to work on one eye hence the drooping lower eyelid. I feel I need to wear eyelash extensions all the time so my eyes look even. I do believe in the future I will need a revision. I am disappointed, I had hoped this practice would have been what I had needed to assist with this issue that had bothered me for so long. I wished they had been more comforting and had followed-up. Unfortunately I do not recommend this practice for eyelid procedures. However Megan Love is awesome! She was super sweet, comforting and sincere.

It leads right out to the front desk so it would be very hard to get lost. The lobby has music playing and the seats are far enough from the front desk that you can't overhear conversations. The medical assistant was friendly and speedy. She took my information and I waited about 5 mins inside the room for Dr Cohen. He introduced himself as Barry and his bedside manner was kind and understanding. I immediately understood that he had been a doctor for years because his confidence exceeded the words he was using. He provided me with options. I made the choice and completed the quick procedure without pain or discomfort. I would highly recommend this practice. Rock solid experience.

First, I thought Dr. Cohen was kind, relatable and professional…read more My complaint is with his staff (Marina). I bought a service through Groupon that Dr. Cohen did not feel I was qualified for. We discussed another option and he told me his staff would get my money back from Groupon. They did not try. Instead I felt rushed to schedule and pay for the other option. After a few days I phoned Marina and told her I didn't feel comfortable going ahead. I did not ask for a refund of my deposit of over $1000, however, she brought it up and said she would speak to Dr. Cohen since it had only been a couple of days since my visit. I DID NOT HEAR FROM HER AFTER A WEEK AND CALLED BACK - LEFT A MESSAGE. ANOTHER WEEK PASSED AND NO CALL. I have an issue when people don't keep their word and ghost you. I am also uncomfortable with the approach she took pushing me to decide on the spot, rather than letting me go home and think about the procedure. It's a shame that a good surgeon would surround himself with people of little integrity.

TRT hormone treatment through Dr Richards has changed my life for the better in terms of giving me a more positive outlook on life, better overall mood, and consistent sleep. I have tried everything in the past...diet plans, exercising, etc, but nothing works as well as the TRT in combination with regulating diet. Having Dr. Richards as your own personal physician is also extremely beneficial. He is very knowledgeable and is also very kind, courteous and helpful.

Dr Mark E Richards' work was so bad they tried to make me sign an NDA. I had 4 facial threads…read moreplaced by the doctor, not even a week after the procedure 1 noticed they were buckling and rippling in my face. I came in for a revision and was told by Dr Mark E Richards and this staff that "this happens to one in a million patients." When I asked if the thread would need to be removed I was told that removing the thread wouldn't be done because it rips at the connective tissue and removing the thread would not allow me the collagen reproduction benefits that are supposed to take place over the course of a year. After implying I somehow was to blame for the thread protrusion, the doctor cut what he called the excess thread. He mentioned again how rare of an occurrence this was, and sent me on my way. Not even a week later the thread was jetting out again from my face. I reached out and was told that Dr Mark E Richards was on vacation so l had to wait another week with my face disfigured before having the thread corrected, for the second time... A week later, I was allowed to come in for the 2nd correction of this alleged "one patient in a million" issue. During this second revision, after ripping and digging into my face with an inadequate amount of numbing agent, the doctor completely removed the thread. Meaning that not only would I not be receiving the collagen reproductive but I was getting 1 less than what I paid for. I mentioned as much and that's when all of Dr Mark E Richards false niceties went out the window. After arguing me down I was given a document to sign. (See the attached photos.) I won't just sign anything without reading through it first, a fact that Laura, a staff member (pictured) seemed very put off about so far as to remark to the receptionist " well I guess I won't be making my palates class tonight." As I read through the document I discovered the doctor had given me an NDA to sign. When I questioned this I was told it was standard procedure when a patient is unsatisfied with the work. I refused to sign. The experience I had with Dr Mark E Richards was horrible from start to finish. 1 wish I would have paid closer attention to his facial procedure reviews on realself.com. If I'd done so I would have saved myself from disfigurement at his hands. His work is sloppy and he and his staff are rude. If you value your results please do not go to Dr Mark E Richards! Imagine all the patients who he's given NDA's to who have signed. Protect yourself and go elsewhere.

I had a great experience with Dr. Kravitz when I visited in April of 2024. So I actually flew in…read morefrom Florida because the all in cost was literally half what it would cost me to have it done locally. I had already been diagnosed with a left inguinal hernia before making the trip and I flew in the night before surgery. I came in the next morning and Dr. Kravitz explained in detail the procedure and answered all of the questions that I had. I was a little concerned about this being an open surgery vs laparoscopic based on things that I had read about the recovery being longer but when he explained that it was actually better it put my mind at ease. I was already committed to doing it anyways but it was reassuring to hear. Because of the fact that I was doing the operation on the same day of the consultation it was actually Dr. Lawrence Starin who did the operation a few hours after my meeting with Dr. Kravitz. I knew this going in and I had no issues with it because he had great reviews as well. Everything with the pre-surgery routine was seamless and I got to speak with Dr. Starin for a few minutes before I was put under for surgery. He was very friendly and open to talk with and I knew I would be in great hands under his care. When I woke up I was feeling pretty good and didn't have any pain at all because of the meds that I was on. It wasn't until that night when the pain killers wore off that I started to feel some real pain and it definitely wasn't fun but I would say it was manageable for most people. I ended up flying home early the next morning about 14 hours after surgery. I was a little nervous about this because I had been told that flying so quickly after surgery is a bad idea but it ended up being fine. I even drove home from the airport which was about an hour from my house and I managed to do it without much issue. I wouldn't necessarily recommend going this route but if you have a tight schedule to make everything work I'd say go for it if it helps you save thousands of dollars like I did. As for my overall recovery I'm extremely pleased with how everything went. There was some pain and numbness in the weeks following but I did my best to take it easy to make sure my recovery went smoothly. Because I was long distance traveling and in and out very quickly I didn't have the opportunity to have any kind of post surgery check up but Dr. Kravitz did call me a week after surgery to check up on me which I appreciated. As of writing this it's been about 4 months and I've been completely back to normal for probably about 2 months. Overall everything went about as well as I could have hoped and I highly recommend both Dr. Alan Kravitz and Dr. Lawrence Starin to anybody who is on the fence. Wendee, their assistant, was also very helpful in setting everything up and answering my questions.
