Dr. Silviu C. Diaconu worked with my breast cancer surgeon simultaneously during my masectomy. I…read morehad a masectomy 34 years ago without reconstruction. Dr. Diaconu thoroughly explained all options. Originally I was in for a tummy tuck plus matching new boobs. For many medical reasons involving other surgeries that I had over the years I chose to have another masectomy with no reconstruction. I wasn't sure why I needed a plastic surgeon at his point until I saw my results. Dr. D removed a chunk of fat from my back from the previous masectomy and then fixed up andaligned the stitches to match my new masectomy. It all sounds kind of horrible but I am as impressed as I can be with a scar across my chest, I'm very impressed. I'm also glad not to be lopsided. I had no complications and am mending quickly and easily.

You will almost never see the MD post op and I had different PAs and NPs so often. Major post op complications were missed or treated very inadequately. Impossible to list all the issues here. No one washes their hands and you will get neosporin from a shred tube ugh. When I was hospitalized with a surgical complication the MD did not recognize that it was from surgery and refused to consult!!! My team called him MIA doctor. Outrageous. Don't be fooled by the fancy office. Experience and communication is sorely lacking. They are not equipped to deal with serious issues. Dr Piccolo is very nice but not current on treatments offered at Hopkins for example. I really was fortunate to leave with my life to seek care elsewhere.

I contacted this office today to schedule a new patient appointment and was informed that a phone…read moreconsultation with the patient care coordinator, Bridget, was required first. 4:00 PM - Scheduled phone consultation with Bridget 4:21 PM - No call received. I called the office - no answer. I left a voicemail and submitted a message via the Contact Us form. 4:28 PM - I received a call from the front desk informing me that Bridget was "behind." There was no prior notice, no apology, and no courtesy, despite the fact that I rearranged my schedule to be available at 4PM. 5:08 PM - I received a text from Bridget asking WHEN would be a good time to talk. There was no apology for missing the appointment, no acknowledgment of the inconvenience caused, and no respect for my time. A response 1 hour and 8 minutes after a scheduled appointment without any proactive communication beforehand is unprofessional. Even if Dr. Cohen is considered a top plastic surgeon, I would never proceed with this office. The patient care coordinator is often the first point of contact and a reflection of the practice as a whole. If this is the level of communication during the intake process, I can only imagine the disorganization that might occur during pre- and post-operative care.

I am writing to update my previous review of Dr. Santiago of Glow Plastuc Surgery. When I had…read moresurgery in July of this year I was Extreme happy with my results because I could only see my front and my waistline. But that is no longer the case 5 months later. My previous review, that staff push you to write immediately post surgery with the promise of free lymphatic massage and/or free faja... so of course you write it. But what happens after the initial 3 days post op? A lot of debauchery. You don't hear about the stories of opening 3 times post op. And not receiving medical help while your surgeon goes out of the country. You don't hear about being open and having staff continue to wrap you in a soiled binder which is causing you to open further. You aren't made aware of being stitched repeatedly but not seeing any result. Or receiving conflicting medical care from the surgeon, his staff and then the lymphatic massage therapist that leaves you in a puddle of tears of confusion after paying $13,050 of your hard earned money. No you don't. So, I'm going to show you and tell you. I'm being harassed for an additional $600 from the surgery center stating Dr. Santiago went over during my surgery. I was sent a text message 2 days post op from the Anesthesiologist for an additional $200 for the same reason. My boyfriend was told he needed to pay $300 before I was even wheeled out of Recovery. Oh, and when he returned to retrieve me they told him to prop a side door open and go grab something to eat because they still weren't finished. And when he returned upstairs to the surgery floor he walked down the hall to find an open surgical door where I laid on the table being operated on. I had to seek outside care to have my wounds finally close costing me an additional $800. I've seen no positive change in my back from before the surgery until now, 5 months post op. And according to Dr. Santiago I look good in the front. And he never promised me a flat back. According to him, I have skin and not fat. So, unless he rwmoved skin, there's nothing he can do. But I know that during my consult with Teresa, his point of contact, simply having lipo wouldnt take care of my back. Lipo 360 with tummy tuck and abdominoplasty would. You take a look at the attached pics and tell me what you see? That's right. The same extra back i went in there with. And oh yeah.... i requested my complete medical record. And it looks doctored, is missing pages, and he didnt document all of my medical visita for my openings. Don't do it. RUN! Because it's not fair to lead people on. I went telling them that I wanted to have only 1 back. Meaning have my back rolls removed. And they are still there. I guess I'm just supposed to never wear a backless dress ever according to Santago. Because as he's stated... you look good from the front.​​​​

Looking back, I can honestly say my fears were completely unfounded. At 71, I am absolutely thrilled with my results! Dr. Chang performed my deep plane facelift and neck rejuvenation with extraordinary skill and artistry. The results are so natural that I simply look like a younger, more refreshed version of myself. And remarkably, as time goes on, I continue to look better and better. Family, friends, and even complete strangers have commented on how youthful and refreshed I look. What makes this experience especially meaningful is how much better I feel about myself. I have renewed confidence, genuinely enjoy looking in the mirror, and have even become more attentive to caring for my skin. Beyond his exceptional surgical talent, Dr. Chang is a compassionate, thoughtful, and supportive physician. He patiently answered every question, addressed my concerns, and made me feel comfortable and reassured throughout the entire process. I can personally attest to his remarkable talent in facial and neck rejuvenation. My experience was a 10 out of 10! I am deeply grateful to Dr. Chang for his extraordinary work. He has made a meaningful difference in how I look and, more importantly, how I feel about myself. I cannot recommend him highly enough!

Laser Lipo Flank and Outer Thighs and Laser Lipo-Upper/Lower Abdomen…read more Three years ago, I decided to have Laser Lipo on my flanks and outer thighs and selected Dr. Khalifeh as my doctor of choice. I chose him because of his excellent credentials, professional demeanor, and outstanding track record. I could see results immediately after the surgery and once the swelling had subsided was absolutely thrilled with the way my body looked. The results far exceeded my expectations and gave me the additional motivation to continue with a healthy diet and a regular exercise regime. Over the past three years the fat never return to the areas Dr. Khalifeh treated, and my results were lasting which was important to me after considering my investment in the procedure, healing time, etc. I continually receive complements on my figure and with practically no scaring what so ever very much enjoyed the new look of my midsection. I do exercise regularly and watch what I eat, but truth be told there are stubborn fat deposits that are just resistant to diet and exercise, and I don't see how I would have ever received those beautiful results without opting for Laser Lipo with Dr. Khalifeh. Now three years after my initial procedure, I wanted Dr. Khalifeh to use Laser Lipo on my upper and lower abdomen. It was not intended to be a "big" job, but looking at the initial results I can already see that Dr. Khalifeh went above and beyond. I still have some swelling but a lot less than I anticipated. The results are already visible and they are stunning. Everything looks even - no lumpiness and totally natural. I couldn't be more pleased. I also would like to mention that I perceive Dr. Khalifeh to not only be a superb doctor but a genuine human being who emanates a kindness and caring demeanor that is really found. He is someone with integrity, which I find most important when choosing the right doctor.

I spent at least three years researching local surgeons, risks, complications, etc. I also have several breast tumors and was unsure of my options. After a few unimpressive local consultations and a lot of anxiety, I thought breast surgery was not in the cards for me. Then a friend showed me Dr. Maia's Instagram. I was blown away by the natural look and shape she created on her patients. I quickly scheduled a consultation with Dr. Maia and knew I had found the right surgeon! Dr. Maia has an impressive and extensive education and training through a Harvard fellowship and even has her own skincare line. Not only is Dr. Maia brilliant, but she also took the time to understand and address my concerns, fears, and goals. She is passionate about her profession and genuinely cares about her patients. During the preoperative stages, I had a breast cancer scare. Dr. Maia and her team were so concerned and supportive! I cannot say enough about how wonderful and accommodating she and her staff were during that time. Her team also ensured I had everything I needed for a successful surgery. They had excellent communication and were constantly in touch via phone and text message to ensure I was prepared for surgery and to answer all my questions. After surgery, I was shocked at how good I felt once the anesthesia wore off. Dr. Maia performed a breast lift, augmentation, and removal of cysts. I had little to no pain and did not take any prescribed pain medication during my recovery. Dr. Maia's team checked on me daily to ensure I was recovering well. The communications were via text message and an app where I could upload photos for real-time responses. This was so convenient for me during recovery, and I never felt bound to standard doctor's office hours; they were always available. Dr. Maia and her team also diligently scheduled the post-op follow-up appointments. My incisions closed very quickly, and my scarring is looking great! I am beyond pleased with my results and still cannot believe this is my body. I never thought this would be possible for me, and I cannot thank Dr. Maia enough for my excellent results! If you are considering cosmetic surgery, I urge you to schedule a consultation with Dr. Maia!

The process and office visits were seamless, and Dr. Sailon was extremely amicable and knowledge throughout.

They had him join in on my revision foot surgery to debride and close the incision sites. He was meticulous and did an amzing job. The scars were better than the initial surgery by a previous surgeon. I then felt comfortable inquiring about breast reduction surgery and after a few consultations with him , photos of his past before and after breast reduction surgeries, I was very confident in his abilities and my fears were gone. The stories about terrible scarring and loss of sensation that everyone talks about did not happen. Dr. Sailon took his time with each step to ensure my scars would be as small as possible. Here comes the good part...the healing process was just as he said it would be with about a 1 week recovery in bed, 3 weeks of no exercise and 2 more weeks of light activity. My week 6 check up was great and week 8 was outstanding! The scars are extremely minimal and they get better everyday. None of the scars are raised-smooth as a baby's bottom. They are slowly fading and in a year, will be barely noticeable. I am now 6 months out and holy crap...best decision I've ever made, full sensation, and they look amazing! I went to get post-surgical bras 3 weeks after surgery and the place I go to is called Sylene. It's in Chevy Chase in Washington DC and they not only specialize in bra fitting, all lingerie and most importantly, all bras for post-surgery patients from mastectomies and reconstructive surgery. The owner commented on how remarkable they were healing and asked for Dr. Sailon's card. When I went back to get my nice bras, she was floored how they came out and the lack of typical scars you would see after a breast reduction surgery. I will always refer him to anyone who needs plastic surgery whether it is for reductions, closures of surgical sites and anything else they need. A friend also has botox injections done and you couldn't even tell. She had to tell me she had it done! Now that is impressive! He is incredibly thorough, kind and comforting. His bedside manners is just as excellent as his skill and he calls and emails to follow up-personally. I usually never do these online referrals, however, how could I not?! You MUST book an appointment with him for any plastic surgery procedure you can think of.
