I recently had the privilege of undergoing a mommy makeover procedure performed by Dr. K, and I couldn't be happier with the results and overall experience. I've done numerous research/reading countless reviews on surgeons within the capital region. Dr.K was my first consult and my last. From the moment I walked into the clinic, I was met with an atmosphere of professionalism and care that immediately put me at ease. I had a terrible experience with doctors/hospital staff when I was pregnant, after giving birth that experience only became worse. I was terrified of being placed in any sort of hospital again after that traumatic incident. After meeting with Dr.K, I kind of forgot all the bad that happened and was led by his trust. I wasn't even scared going into the procedure, that's how reassuring he was. He is extremely different from the ordinary doctor in that he cares about you as an individual. As a patient, you expect to go into the doctor's office and to be greeted by his assistant, or even when you call off hours you're expected to be talked to by an operator. But not Dr. K's office - he's with you every step of the way. Even when you call the office during off hours you're talking to Dr. K. Dr. K's expertise and skill are truly remarkable. He took the time to listen attentively to my concerns and goals, ensuring that I felt comfortable and well-informed about the entire process. His precision and attention to detail were evident in the final results of my mommy makeover. The transformation is beyond what I could have imagined, and I am extremely grateful for his talent. Seeing the before and after pictures were shocking, I can't believe he gave me back my body. When I was pregnant I gained a lot of weight rapidly resulting in a lot of skin sagging post-birth. My breast was not even and they were hanging low - no bra would help with support. No amount of gym time helped with the sagging skin or loose abdominal muscles. Dr.K was able to tighten my tummy, lift my breast, and also made them even! The price did not even do justice to what Dr. K has done. He is extremely reasonably priced for the amount of work that he had to do. You can tell by Dr. K demenor he has chosen this practice because he loves what he does and he truly cares about you as an individual. The first day after surgery was the hardest, every day after that gets easier and better. Having the support from my family along with the support from Dr. K, and Amenia was extremely beneficial and it helped me achieve a speedy recovery. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. K to anyone considering a mommy makeover or any other plastic surgery procedure. His expertise, coupled with the professionalism of the staff and the welcoming clinic environment, creates a truly exceptional experience. My confidence has been boosted, and I am incredibly grateful to Dr. K for helping me achieve the results I desired. Thank you to the entire team for making this journey a remarkable one. Pros: Dr. K's expertise and attention to detail Professional and caring staff aka Amena! She's the best! Modern and clean clinic environment/ no wait time either Cons: Didnt like sharing a room at the hospital - I honestly did not want to spend a night at the hospital but after doing so I've realized how pertinent it is to the recovery process. Having no toddler or anyone to brother me was much needed! Overall, my experience with Dr. K and his team exceeded my expectations, and I would enthusiastically recommend their services to anyone seeking high-quality plastic surgery results in a supportive and professional setting. Even if you're thinking about the process just set up a consultation it is literally life changing! read more

A few months ago I started my search for a plastic surgeon that could help rid me of layers of excess skin that were a result of my 110 pound weight lose. One of my regular doctors referred me to a plastic surgeon in the upstate that was NOT Dr. K - I went to the appointment with so much hope and excitement and left with a really bad feeling in my stomach - that gut feeling that tells you not to do something. At that appointment that surgeon never made eye contact and looked in their laptop the entire time, never went over the procedure and how it would be performed, and never showed me a before and after picture of what I could expect. Right before I left they handed me a consent form for surgery and told me to fill it out and when I come back leave it with the front desk. Long story short - the hours of research began. I reviewed at least 25 other plastic surgeons in my area. From their reviews to their cost. Then I found Dr. K - I called and spoke to Teresa one of the front end receptionist and schedulers and after a few minutes she had me booked for an appointment in the next few days. This is where the weight was lifted off my shoulders - the moment Dr.K met with me. He went over everything with me in our initial consultation - this was his genuine way of working because at that point I still had not mentioned what I went through at the other plastic surgeons office. He examined my skin, went over the procedure with me, and showed me a ton of pictures. I left that office feeling EXSTACTIC! HOPEFUL! RELIEVED! and then my journey began !! remember that consent form the other plastic surgeon gave me that they told me to fill out and give to the front desk? Well Dr.K goes over EVERYTHING in his consent form - he sits down with you and reads and discusses the risk, expected outcomes, and history that he needs to know to ensure that he can do everything in his power to ensure a safe surgical procedure with great communication between doctor and patient. I would also like to point out how lovely his staff is! Teresa and Cathy in the front were always there to answer a question and are very kind! and my sweet Kim the office manager that dealt with my numerous phone calls and questions lol - thank you Kim for your patience ! and to all his staff that come in and join him during consultations and appointments! I said ALLLLLL of that ^ to say I had my surgery November 30th 2020 and I am so thankful and so happy and extremely pleased with my results and the way Dr. K handled me as a patient! and I cant wait to come back in the future lol ! read more

I cannot begin to put into words how thrilled I am with my results! I have been wanting an abdominoplasty for over 10 years and finally decided it was time. I researched online and Dr. K hands down had the best reviews. I scheduled a consultation with him and then life happened and I wasn't able to find the time to schedule the surgery. Almost a year later I went back. Dr. K did another consultation without showing any frustration or concern that I hadn't followed through after the first one. He walked me through different options to get the results I was hoping for. While he did advise as to what type of surgery would maximize my results, he also was supportive of my choice to do the more "traditional" method with the horizontal incision rather than the vertical. From there the staff were incredibly helpful with scheduling the procedure and giving me all the information I needed as to next steps and what to expect. When I saw my primary for pre-op he asked who I was going to. When I said Dr. K, my PCP referred to him as a "rockstar" and spoke very highly of him both as a surgeon and person. During other pre-op processes I had two different nurses on two different days tell me how amazing his work is and how he would be the person they went to if they were to ever get work done. These were all unsolicited opinions but certainly made me happy to hear. The day of surgery came. Dr. K was prompt, thorough, and reassuring. Amina, his assistant, was equally as wonderful and they compliment each other so well. After surgery they both were incredibly responsive when I wasn't tolerating the antibiotic. Dr. K really had the best bedside manner, and beyond the amazing work he did, he also built my confidence with his kind words and encouragement throughout the process. To clearly be able to see HE was excited about his results really meant the world to me! I'm just under 3 months post-op and I am beyond thrilled with my results! It has exceeded my expectations! I LOVE my figure ... and I didn't need any liposuction and still opted for the horizontal incision. I can see why Dr. K had talked about other options, but he also didn't hesitate to reassure me that the results would still be excellent with the method I chose. He was spot on! I've healed incredibly well, couldn't be happier with my results, and am so incredibly grateful for Dr. K, Amina, and the team! I would recommend K Plastic Surgery to anyone who was thinking about having work done. My experience could not have been any better! read more

It's honestly hard to put into words how much this surgery has changed my life, but I wanted to share my experience for anyone who might be considering it. I struggled with my weight for most of my life and went through years of yo-yo dieting and disordered eating. Over time, I did a lot of work to heal my relationship with food and with my body. Once I finally felt like I was in a healthy place mentally and had built consistent, balanced habits, I knew I was ready to consider surgery. I also had four C-sections, which left me with a very misshapen abdomen and a lot of extra skin that I carried for years. I had lived with it for so long that I didn't even realize how much I had adapted my daily life around it--how I dressed, how I moved, how I felt about myself. It held me back in ways I didn't fully understand until it was gone. I had an FDL abdominoplasty and monsplasty with Dr. Kayastha, and the results have been truly life-changing. Without the extra skin, I feel amazing. I feel comfortable in my body in a way I never have before. I feel confident, healthy, and free. Dr. Kayastha and his entire team--especially Amina--were incredible from the very first appointment. From the moment I walked in, everyone was warm, kind, and welcoming. I never once felt embarrassed or judged, even though it's such a vulnerable situation. Dr. Kayastha took his time answering every question I had and made sure I understood everything at every step. I always felt cared for and supported. They also made sure I had everything I needed before surgery and throughout recovery. Another thing I really appreciated was the transparency--everything was included in one cost, which made the whole process much less stressful. What I'm most grateful for is how this experience has given me a new level of confidence and peace in my own body. After spending so many years struggling, hiding, and adapting, it's hard to explain what it feels like to finally feel comfortable in my own skin. It's not just about how I look--it's about how I feel every single day. I'm incredibly thankful to Dr. Kayastha, Amina, and the entire team at K Plastics. Their kindness, skill, and support truly changed my life, and I will always be grateful. read more

I am so confident that choosing Dr Kayastha to be my surgeon was the BEST possible choice. He is one of the finest doctors I have ever met. His surgical skills are impeccable and his bedside manner is unmatched. I am beyond satisfied with the results of my Mommy Makeover. In my first meetings with Dr Kayastha, I was struck by how intently he listened. He's so easy to talk to. I never felt rushed or pressured. He is kind, attentive, respectful and professional. He seemed just as concerned as I was with getting the very best possible outcome and he was very straightforward about what my expectations should be. Throughout every step of our journey together - from initial consultations through surgery and post-operative care - I have felt safe, comfortable, well-informed and very well cared for. My surgery went smoothly, and Dr. K has carefully guided me through the recovery process with several follow-up visits. Dr. K's attention to detail and the pride he takes in his work shine through in my results which are even better than I expected! Visiting the office of K Plastic Surgery is always a pleasant experience. The front office staff is friendly and welcoming. Amina is the best PA - knowledgeable, personable and patient. She and Dr Kayastha make the perfect team. I appreciate that the practice provides a wide range of services - not only surgical. Should I need or desire additional procedures in the future, I will absolutely return to K Plastic Surgery...I wouldn't dream of going anywhere else. read more

I recently had an extended abdominoplasty done with Dr. Kayastha and PA Amina. I could not be happier with my care and the results. Dr. K and Amina's collaborative approach makes each visit feel thorough. They spend a lot of time with you planning and providing extremely realistic expectations for surgical results. K. Plastics also worked with my health insurance to get a portion of my surgery covered. During my search for a surgeon, some offices would not even consider submitting to insurance, and many seemed off-put by the request. Dr. Kayastha was compassionate about my functional health struggles with loose skin and was willing to advocate for me. He understood my goals without offering additional surgeries or trying to upsell during consultation. Dr. Kayastha and Amina practice with meticulous skill. Surgery and recovery went smoothly. My post-op care was exceptional and frequent enough to ensure no complications or unnecessary pain. Aesthetically my results have more than exceeded my expectations! But the physical and mental benefits top all that!!! I can now enjoy the level of physical activity I desire without unwanted skin irritation and infections. My 5k time is already faster than pre-op, now that I'm able to run without aggravating my back! I've waited and planned for this surgery for 20 years. I did not take the decision to pursue surgery lightly, but I was so sure in my decision about choosing K. Plastic Surgery and would do so again! 10/10 recommend! read more

I recently had a consultation at K Plastic Surgery, and unfortunately, it was a very negative experience. The consultation felt rushed, and I didn't feel that procedures or options were explained in a thorough or helpful way. I also didn't feel like I had a real opportunity to speak with the doctor or ask questions. His demeanor came across as angry, dismissive, and unprofessional, which made me very uncomfortable. At one point, after he told me to wrap myself in the robe like he was disgusted , I felt especially disrespected by the way it was handled. Overall, the interaction left me feeling uneasy rather than supported. After the appointment, I attempted to follow up as instructed, but had a difficult time reaching anyone directly. I was repeatedly transferred on the phone, and instead of receiving a call back, I got an email over a week later, which was frustrating since I specifically wanted to speak with someone. I was also concerned by the lack of visible diversity in patient results, particularly for African American patients, which made it harder for me to feel confident in their experience with different skin types and outcomes. I left the consultation feeling unheard, unseen, and discouraged. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this practice to others looking for a respectful, informative, and supportive consultation. read more

If I could give 10 star rating, I would. Dr. Kayastha and Amina are fantastic! I have been thinking about the surgery for well over a decade and have seen 3 other doctors for consultations. After I met with Dr. Kayastha, I had no doubts that he was the one I was going to go with. He is very thorough and you never feel rushed with concerns or questions you may have. He 100% listens to your wants and concerns. I love the fact that you have 2 separate consultation appointments and that he really takes the time to go over everything very thoroughly. He takes time with measurements and explaining the best possible options for you. The day of surgery was great. I was certainly nervous but he and Amina were so confident and reassuring, it put my nerves to rest. Their bedside manners are the best! Surgery went great and loved that he called later that day to check in on me to see how I was doing. Post surgical appointments went very well. The office staff is always so kind and welcoming. It's always nice to walk in to such friendly smiles. I honestly cannot put into words how thrilled I am. My only regret is that I did not do it sooner. Dr. Kayastha listened and with his expertise I got EXACTLY what I hoped for. I couldn't be happier and would definitely recommend him. read more

I am writing this review regarding Dr Kayastha and his plastic surgery practice. I am a breast cancer survivor with breast implants. I had a leaking implant and was referred to Dr. Kayastha's Practice. I was met with a beautiful clean office , friendly and helpful office manager and all other staff but mostly from Dr.k. I was met with a knowledgeable, warm, empathetic Dr. with the ability to hear me with what bmy concerns were. He met me at the ER promptly 2 times and this was prior to covid and during covid yet he was attentive , always explaining everything and continuing to listen to what I wanted . Never did I feel he was rushing but just the opposite as he spent the amount of time I needed him to.. I feel that he went the extra mile to save my implant and that's what I really wanted . I had frequent office visits and online visits with the same professional shown by staff in office and Dr. k . The office staff called and checked on me and went above and beyond to show they cared and couldn't have done anything better. I would give an exemplary referral to anyone who needed a plastic surgeon. I was 100% satisfied with entire staff and with Dr. K! - theresa Franklin read more

I recently had Brachioplasty (arm lift) performed by Dr. K because of significant weight loss from Bariatric surgery. He is a talented and skilled surgeon. At my first consultation I knew I was in the right place. He cares about and carefully considers things I had not thought about like scar placement and a natural looking outcome. Dr K performed a thorough exam, explained the procedure in detail, answered all my questions and addressed any concerns not only at the initial consult, but up to and including surgery and in my post op visits. He is available to you 24/7 if needed. His bedside manner, compassion, knowledge and talent are exceptional. I am three weeks post op and thrilled with my results! I plan on having Dr K perform additional surgeries (abdominoplasty, thigh lift) when my weight loss journey is complete. I would choose no other surgeon. Dr K has also built a great team at K Plastic surgery. The entire staff is friendly, efficient and caring. Staff knows you by name, treats you with respect and return calls promptly. The entire office takes pride in what they do! read more

I have been a patient of Dr K's for several years. My family members and I have received minor surgeries and were always extremely pleased as he is a fantastic surgeon. This spring I spoke with Dr K about the physical and emotional benefits of a breast reduction. The conversation we had was enlightening, encouraging, and motivating. Once I decided to proceed with the surgery Dr K and his staff worked to secure all documentation that was needed to obtain approval from my insurance company - the process was truly seamless. Prior to the surgery Dr K and I met to discuss the entire process. Dr K was patient and thorough in detailing what I would experience from the surgical procedure through my recovery period. Three weeks post surgery I am beyond satisfied with my experience and the results. Dr K's follow up care is terrific. The office manager Terri is extremely flexible in finding an appointment time that works with my schedule. Anyone who is considering this life changing procedure, or who needs the services of a talented, personable surgeon should consider Dr K. read more

I recently had a tummy tuck performed by Dr. K, and I cannot recommend him highly enough! My journey to find the right plastic surgeon included consultations with several professionals, but Dr. K stood out due to his thoroughness and the exceptional support from his PA and office staff. From the very first consultation, I was impressed by Dr. K's attention to detail. He took the time to answer every question I had, never making me feel rushed. His dedication to patient care is unlike anything l've experienced before. The prices for his services are also very fair, which is an added bonus. What truly sets Dr. K apart is his meticulous approach throughout the entire process. He guided me through every single step, ensuring I felt comfortable and informed. I knew he was skilled, but the results of my procedure exceeded my expectations. The entire experience was nothing short of phenomenal. If you're looking for a plastic surgeon who genuinely cares about his patients and delivers outstanding results, Dr. K is the one to see! read more

I took a lot of time to research someone who could do what I wanted. I was looking for something minimally invasive, that looked very natural. I came to Dr. K, and felt very at ease not only due to his demeanor, but because he was very forthcoming about what was realistic, and what I really did not need. I appreciate the fact that he told me to not do certain things, because ultimately it wouldn't benefit me. This tells me he is doing what he is doing for the love of helping people feel their best, not for the money. That is key, to me. Aside from this, I am thrilled with my results, and will never go anywhere else should I need a tune up! The staff are AMAZING, and they are all very responsive to nervous people like myself! Dr. K is professional, courteous, HONEST, and incredibly good at what he does. I am so thankful to the whole staff, honestly, for helping me feel a bit better about myself, and like I'm part of the K practice family. I would recommend Dr. K a million times over, if I could. read more

After suffering for way too many years with large breasts, I began my search for a surgeon. Several consultations later I chose Dr. Kayastha to perform my surgery for a couple of reasons. First, Dr. Kayastha was so thorough and professional. During the consultation he had explained with great clarity the whole procedure and how the surgery would help to alleviate my health issues as well as answer all my questions. His confident and calm manner won me over that day. Another positive point that sealed the deal was his genuine appreciation of his staff. Up to that point I only had contact with the receptionist Teresa so when I mentioned that she was top notch, Dr. Kayastha immediately praised his entire staff. Now that's the person I wanted to perform my surgery! I'm still recovering from my surgery but I can say with all confidence that the surgery was a great success and I owe that to the skillful hands of Dr. Kayastha. read more

I can not recommend Dr Kayastha highly enough. Before my procedure, he was extremely thorough with me and even sat down and went through every possible risk before I could sign consent. Most importantly, he listened to what I wanted as a result and made sure I had very realistic expectations. Even with that, the results were better than what I could have hoped for. Just a week or so post-op, I can't believe how easy recovery has been and how natural the result already looks. In addition, the entire office staff was extremely caring and helpful. The receptionist Terri and Office Manager Kim are so welcoming and were accommodating of my schedule changes and time restraint. The whole process, from my first consultation to after surgery, was so smooth and all of my anxieties were eased. I wish I could give Dr. K and his practice more than 5 stars! read more

A few years ago, after being referred by my Primary Dr. to have a small issue taken care of a, I have been seeing Dr. Kayastha since for different things. About a year ago, I decided to explore a breast reduction for myself. During the process, Dr. K was very informative and never pushed me in either direction of my decision. During my time with Dr. K while seeing him for appointments, he has the best bed side manner I have ever had with a Dr. I knew my decision to follow through with my breast reduction was a go. My surgery was perfect, my healing was perfect and my scars are almost unnoticeable, only 6 weeks after surgery. Not only was the surgery the best decision ever, my decision to have Dr. K do it was even better. I will always use Dr. K for any of my plastic surgery and skin care needs and recommend him to anyone. read more

When my doctor recommended a procedure to help relieve pain, she told me to go to Dr. Kayastha. Dr. K's and his entire staff helped me navigate the entire process with the insurance company. It took two years and several appeals and the entire time Dr. K's staff never gave up. They understood the pain I was in. Their help and compassion got me to where I am today (with a lot less pain). I had my surgery and I have to admit I was scared to death to do it, but I felt the fear and did it anyway. I am so glad I did. I love the results. I would recommend Dr. K a thousands times over. He did such a good job and I couldn't be happier. I trusted him and he didn't let me down. He was there when I called, he was so patient and took his time to go over everything and the end results are fantastic. read more

I was absolutely amazed as to how quickly I was able to get in for a consult. The doctor and his head nurse made me feel very comfortable, even though I was very uncomfortable with my body. All the way up until surgery I never once felt nervous. Very excited even on the day of surgery. I was never nervous. Excited for how the results were going to show. as soon as surgery was done, I could feel the energy off the both of them Always very thorough everything. Very down to earth, caring and overall extremely nice. I think the doctor was more excited than I was about the outcome. I was very extremely excited about how I looked and the outcome. I feel so much more confident., my self esteem is through the roof! I owe them everything and thank them very much for giving me myself back! read more

I came to Dr. K in order to fix my ear lobes. I gauged my ear lobes to over an inch big when I was younger and now I was ready to leave that chapter behind. Dr. K is super nice, kind, and easy to talk to. The process was simple and a great price. I had four appointments. One for him to check out my ears and go over a game plan. Second one he did the actual cutting and reshaping of the earlobes. Third was to take out the stitches, and fourth to repierce my ears. These were all included in the initial price. Dr. K was available whenever I needed him, if I had any questions or concerns. His staff are super nice and just excited as you are for your procedures. The office is nice and clean and I never had to wait long. I would recommend Dr. K for any of your plastic surgery needs, 100%! read more
