On 2021, My Daughter went to this Surgeon for a NOSE issue and the Surgeon performed other surgeries on her body without her consent. At this time, the Surgeon's Legal Team is trying to shift the blame on my daughter. It is a Public record read more

I started Dr. Doft's skincare line in May, and with each month my skin looks noticeably better. I am a middle aged woman and I am noticing the texture of skin changing and feel more like it used to!). It's amazing to feel my skin hydrated and more evenly toned. I knew I could feel the difference, but the compliments I am receiving seem to confirm the difference these products are making. Thank you, Dr. Doft! read more

I really couldn't recommend a doctor more and certainly not a plastic surgeon. Dr. Doft is not what you think of when you think of a plastic surgeon. She is humble, kind, caring and excellent at explaining things clearly and simply. She is also meticulous, incredibly talented and listens to your needs and wants in a way that made me feel super comfortable. I went to see her for a breast reduction to "redo" one that a prior surgeon hadn't properly done. she put me at ease right away and while I did interview other surgeons I knew she was the one. She left me with exactly the size I wanted with a very soft natural appearance. I feel so much more confident and comfortable with my new breasts. All doctors should be so good! read more

Dr. Doft's gentleness and competency really put my anxiety at ease! I had a tummy tuck, buccal fat pad removal, along with liposuction to my abdomen, hips, arms, & love handles. Last year, I met Dr. Doft who held my hand through my entire surgery journey. We started off with a consult in her office (very friendly staff) where she answered all my questions, discussed different options for me, and showed before & after pictures as well. She was knowledgeable and addressed all my worries and concerns. The entire experience was amazing from beginning to end - I felt comfortable and safe which was extremely important to me. Highly recommend to everyone who has been thinking about a consultation! read more

Dr Doft and her office team were simply amazing! Dr Doft has the most patient, thorough and empathetic bedside manner, and her results are fantastic! I work in healthcare and we all go to see Dr. Doft for our "make-overs." I highly recommend Dr. Doft, she really is absolutely the best! read more

I cannot speak more highly of Doctor Doft and her team. I am overwhelmed with happiness when I look in the mirror now. I had a breast reduction/lift and I am so grateful that Dr. Doft was my doctor. She is personable, warm, highly experienced in her field and extremely talented. My results look natural and the whole surgical process was seamless. I absolutely recommend her to anyone considering plastic surgery. You will not be disappointed. read more

I received a breast reduction from Dr. Doft in mid-October of this past year. I am in my early 20s so an outcome that not only improved function, but was also aesthetically pleasing was incredibly important. My results have been amazing and recovery was a breeze. I was next to fully functional within just a few days, something I attribute to Dr. Doft's skill and placement of incisions. She and her staff were fantastic and kept me at ease, her bedside manner the day of my surgery greatly reduced my anxiety. As an out-of-town patient my needs were greater than a lot of others, especially considering everything going on in the world, and they made sure I had all of the information and access to proper resources. I paid out-of-pocket for my procedure and that, combined with travel expenses, did make this a costly investment, but one I would absolutely make again. Going forward, any cosmetic surgery procedure my family or I receive will be from Dr. Doft, even if we have to fly across the country. read more

If you've ever had the misfortune of being treated, i.e., harmed by a bad doctor, you'll never take the good ones for granted again. Dr. Doft is one of the good ones. She's worked toward making my nose look better after an incompetent individual screwed it all up, and I'm gratified to have found such a kind, caring and genuinely decent professional -- who, most importantly, knows what she's doing. Zero arrogance, no inflated ego, just talent, skill and a desire to help her patients. She respects and listens to you. She makes you feel better, rather than worse, about yourself. She's a really good doctor, and as I've already noted, that's no minor compliment. Her administrative assistant Michelle is also exceptional. read more

5 stars for a 5 star Doctor. Dr. Doft does It all. I recently had chin liposuction. I was awake and felt relaxed and comfortable the entire time. The process and recovery was so easy. Minor swelling and little to no bruising. Bedside manner and professionalism is top notch. I also see Dr. Doft for my Botox and filler and she makes sure to keep It super subtle and natural like I request. Michelle at the front desk is also so helpful and a delight. Thank you Doft Plastic surgery! read more

After my son was born with folded over her ears I started doing extensive research on the Internet for what could be done to help him. I found Dr. Doft and from the moment I spoke to Michelle (office manager) on the phone to coming to the office and being helped with my stroller, I really felt like I was treated as though I was family. Dr. Doff has the most incredible bedside manner; she is so pleasant, so knowledgeable in this area, and made me feel so comfortable that my son's ears were going to be fine. My son wore the Ear Molds for 3 weeks, he was not bothered by the process at all. Fast forward to three weeks later, my sons ears are perfect and I couldn't be happier. Thank you Dr. Doft for making this experience stress free. read more

Melissa Doft, MD - Doft Plastic Surgery - After - Plastic Surgeons Near Me - New York, New York

See all

Not only was Dr. Doft my first and only consultation, but I am certain that I never would have had the courage to have my nose fixed if it wasn't for her. Dr. Doft represents a rare breed of physicians who are not just exceptionally skilled, but whose bedside manner and level of care make a lasting impact on their patients' lives. From the moment I met her, I knew she was the right surgeon for me and I scheduled my rhinoplasty without looking at a single one of her before and after photos. My results are perfect. I could not be happier with my new nose, but what truly separates Dr. Doft from other world class plastic surgeons is her desire to do more than what is required and add extra finishing touches without even being asked. I traveled across the country for my surgery and Dr. Doft and her office manager, Michelle, could not have been more accommodating. Every single detail of her Park Avenue office is thoughtful and sophisticated, and the level of comfort and privacy I experienced was incredible. I will be a patient of hers for life and I cannot thank her enough. She is the best of the best. read more

This review is way overdue. Dr. Doft is everything you want in a surgeon and more. She is talented and intelligent. She loves what she does and it shows. I have recommended her to all those near and far and have assured them she is worth the travel. Michelle is also such a delight. I plan on visiting these ladies just because they are wonderful people. read more

From the moment we entered Dr Doft's office both my daughter and I felt at ease. Dr Doft was saying goodbye to a pediatric patient who had ear surgery, he hugged her and the little boy's parents were beaming. It was clear that there was excellent rapport. The office was spotless, discrete, and the receptionist was lovely. Dr Doft was on time. My daughter is a teenager; she came for repair of a botched ear piercing and we both knew Dr Doft could easily handle her situation. Dr Doft took the time to focus on my daughter. She did not focus on the the egregious self promotion of many NYC plastic surgeons. Dr Doft remembers that she is a doctor, not a movie star. He hand is steady and her work is perfection. After she repaired my daughter's ears, she attended to my needs: (1)delicate lip plumping--I wanted natural, not ducky or simply putting on glossy lotions (2) slider vein injection of my legs (3) consult for eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) she does it in her office. I have about a dozen friends who have had the following procedures: Breast reduction, Breat lift, breast augmentation, eyelid surgery (upper and lower), nose job, non-surgical nosejob (rhinoplasty) neck lift, botox and fillers. You can trust her with anything and she won't blast your picture all over Instagram (unless you want her to do so) And I forgot to mention that she went to Dartmouth, NYU medschool, and did 2 residencies in pediatric and adult plastic surgery.

One word to describe Dr. Doft: Exceptional! Did much research as well as talked with friends who had breast reductions before I decided to proceed with Dr. Doft who was recommended to me by a good friend. I also went on three consultations before deciding to go with Dr. Doft. When I met her, I immediately felt very comfortable and at ease. I love that she took the time to explain the procedure, allayed any fears or concerns I had and was very kind, personable and professional. Also after the surgery she called and checked in which I really appreciated. I can't say enough wonderful things about her. The results are spectacular and far beyond my expectations. Due to my end result my Aunt is now considering a breast reduction with Dr. Doft next and the recommendations continue on! Dr. Doft treats each and every patient with the very best in ongoing care and attention. After my second post op checkup, she examined me for 5 minutes and said I was healing perfectly (I truly believe a lot of that is credited to her wonderful suggested homeopathic regimen pre and post op - I hardly had any bruising!) After the examination, we ended up talking for 20-30 minutes - she truly cares about her patients. There is no better surgeon in my opinion.I feel 10 years more youthful and that has had a profound impact on my personal demeanor and overall confidence. I highly recommend Dr. Doft both for her performance as well as her aftercare. read more

I received a breast augmentation from Dr. Doft and I couldn't be happier! From the moment I walked into her office to meeting her I felt at ease and completely safe. During my consultation she explained and answered everything. I felt super comfortable. I was sure that my surgery was going to be a success and it was. I highly recommended Dr. Doft and her staff if your looking to get work done. She was amazing! read more

I wish there were more stars with which to rate this outstanding doctor. Young enough to be up on the very latest procedures and old enough to be thoroughly versed and experienced in performing the needed in the best and least painful manner, Melissa Doft is a star. From the moment you enter her attractive office presided over by Michelle from England, you congratulate yourself on having made a good choice. You have made a stellar one. Use Melissa Doft with confidence. You will be glad you did. read more

I have no doubt that Dr. Doft is the best Plastic Surgeon in NYC. I got a breast reduction done by her after meeting with several PSs for months before. Meeting Dr. Doft was such a gift. I recommend anyone in NYC needing a breast reduction (or rhinoplasty/other plastic surgery) to go to her. Portfolio: her portfolio of breast reductions were absolutely beautiful! I saw several other PS's portfolios and didn't get particularly excited. I needed the breast reduction for pain reasons, but I was just going to accept "okay" looking breasts after seeing the other PS's portfolios. This mindset changed once I saw Dr. Doft's portfolio. She makes your breasts look SO beautiful. As a young woman, I actually got excited about getting the surgery, rather than simply feeling like I have to get it done for pain reasons. I can only imagine that her other work is just as beautiful. If I ever get around to future plastic surgery, I plan to fly to NYC just to be treated by her. She is THAT good. As an added bonus, she is such a respectful, thoughtful person that she doesn't post her photos on the internet. You must go in to protect the privacy of her patients. It takes a really lovely doctor to put her patients' privacy above marketing herself. My experience: I am 2 days out from surgery now. My breasts already look great and they don't hurt. She is a miracle worker! I went from like a G/H to maybe a C/D. I have no doubt her work will change my life - I will no longer be in constant pain. Personality: Dr. Doft is as lovely in personality as she is skilled in plastic surgery. She is so kind, down-to-earth, and non-pretentious. For how skilled she is, she really deserves to be pretentious, but she isn't. She made me feel so comfortable, not judged, and really listened to my concerns. She's the type of person you immediately feel comfortable with. Thank you, Dr. Doft for being so amazing! read more

If you are looking to get Botox or lip fillers from Dr. Doft, word to the wise stay away. I went to her with the intention of getting a little refresher, and what I ended up with was droopy eyelids and swelling under my lower lids from the botox. If I raise my upper lids they now move up in a slant making it difficult to even apply eye shadow. My upper lids now appear like an accordion with deep creases. She injected my crows feet which I did not request, and now I have under eye edema. I've had Botox before and this never happened. I had to wear sunglasses to hide my eyes, at my daughter's graduation. I feel very depressed, and I am hoping that this wears off soon. She also injected my upper lips with fillers, and there is hardly any noticeable change with my lips. She apparently also put fillers in my jowls that I had not requested, I only found out after calling her to tell her about these nodules I had felt in my chin area, apparently the fillers migrated to the chin area and created nodules. She told me to massage them, and assured me they would go away. She wanted me to schedule a return visit, but I lost my confidence in her and I'd rather not let her touch my face, for fear she might make it worse. It's been over 5 weeks, and I still have the nodules. Dr. Doft's is very over priced for the crappy work she does. She may be a good surgeon, but as an injector her skills are very much lacking. She should stick to operating and hire a better qualified injector. read more

My son was born with one slightly misshapen ear. I feared this would be something that may bother him years down the line so I searched for a solution. I was lucky to find Dr. Doft who was able to correct it with a non surgical mold which re shaped the cartilidge. The process was completely painless and reshaped his ear in two weeks. I don't even think he noticed the mold (which was also covered by insurance). Dr. Doft was extremely patient and helpful in explaining the process. We are so thankful to have found her and corrected this so easily. read more

I recently took my newborn to have a skin tag removed. Naturally, my husband and I were worried about having a procedure done being that she was so young. We did a lot of research and decided on Dr. Doft. As soon as we walked in the door, our fears were totally alleviated. The front desk was super accommodating, Dr. Doft was so warm and welcoming, and the procedure went without a glitch. Our baby didn't even wake up! I cannot recommend Dr. Doft enough. She is very professional and kind. read more

After visiting many plastic surgeons in my area (Hudson Valley NY) I decided to widen my search and that's when I stumbled upon Dr. Doft. Her office is about a 1.5 hour drive from my home so I was hesitant to consider someone that far since I knew I would have to be back and forth for follow-ups. But I can say it was the BEST decision I could have made. Dr. Doft performed my breast reduction on Jan 18th 2017. 5 months later, I am all healed and couldn't be more excited to get into a bathing suit! I had slight complications after the surgery, where a concerning freckle appeared on the scar about a month after surgery. Dr. Doft performed a biopsy and sent it away for testing. At first it came back abnormal so Dr. Doft removed more skin from the area and sent it away again. Results came back normal. I was impressed that Dr. Doft could perform everything right there in her beautiful office. I made about 7 visits total. Each time she was warm, friendly, inviting and took me right in. Michelle (the receptionist) was also very welcoming, had great communication in person and over the phone and helped me to schedule appointments convenient for me since traveling in/out of the city is a nightmare at certain times. I would highly recommend Dr. Doft to anyone considering any type of plastic surgery. I am a 26 year old who never had any type of surgery or general anesthesia and while other surgeons I met with in the past talked down to me and blurted out crazy medical terms that went right over my head- Dr. Doft spoke to me like a friend would which made all the difference throughout the whole journey. read more

Just had a Liquid Rhinoplasty and some cheek fillers done by Dr Melissa Doft! She is extremely professional and very kind and caring. She makes you feel very very comfortable and makes the procedure as painless as possible! I could really tell how knowledable she is about her work and how much she truly cares about her patients. I used to hate my side profile because of a bump on my nose and she made my nose completely straight and I am in LOVE! The cheek fillers are subtle and natural to create a little bit of a more chiseled look and I am very happy with both results. Thank you Dr Melissa! I will be back!!! What a pleasure! read more

Coming to Dr. Doft changed my life! From the moment you make your first appointment with the wonderful Michelle to the 3 month follow up with Dr. Doft I felt as though they genuinely cared about my procedure. I had a breast reduction and lift and couldn't be happier with the results. I constantly tell my friends and family this is the best decision I have ever made!! I have now recommended 3 other people to her and they will all be booking surgeries this year if they haven't already!!!! read more

Dr. Doft was a nice woman but i unfortunately will not be returning to her office ever again. The service i was seen for was lip fillers. With this being my first time having any kind of cosmetic procedure, i was nervous and had a lot of questions... especially since we are talking about my face. She seemed short with me and the furthest thing from comforting. She put the numbing cream on my lips and left the room and came back 10 minutes later, which would be fine if i didn't know she stayed with my friend (who also had a procedure done) answering all of her questions and talking to her throughout that time.. so i expected the same. While explaining my experience to the same friend who's seen her she shared that she was taken into a separate room to have before and after pictures taken, another thing that was NOT done for me. After the injections Dr. Doft informed me that there was "just a little" left and that maybe she should add more to my bottom lip which i agreed with. After the bottom lip there was still "a little" left so we added more to the top lip. After the top lip there was still "a little" left that we agreed to add to the corners of my bottom lip. Being that she is the doctor and this was my first time, i trusted her opinion. After sharing my story with numerous doctors in the same field as Dr. Doft i was told by several of them that there is a very good chance this was done to avoid her having to store the remainder of whats left in the syringe and avoid blocking out time to see me at a future date. At the end of the procedure when i was walked out to pay, at THIS time i was asked to sign the consent form because it her front desk staff "forgot" to give it to me before. $650 later i left feeling uneasy and immediately regretting letting her touch my lips. As Dr. Doft informed me, my lips had hard ball like clumps days following the procedure which i was told to massage out and they should disappear, Dr Doft offered to have my come back for her to take a look but i would never go back to there due to the way she made me feel so unwelcome so here i am almost 5 months later and still have these ugly bumps along with an UNEVEN SMILE. Ive visited other offices to have them try to massage the bumps out and no luck at all. I absolutely regret going here and don't suggest ANYONE go here to have this procedure done unless you want to leave hating your lips more then you did before. Being only 21 i would have loved to love my lips and my experience so i could have a doctor to see when my lips need touchup throughout my life and unfortunately that is not the case with Dr. Doft whatso ever. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE SERVICE, HAAATTTTTEEEE MY LIPS AND REGRET GIVING THIS PRACTICE MY MONEY. read more

I came here because my newborn son was born with the tops of his ears folded over and wavy. His pediatrician recommended Dr Doft and I'm so glad she did! Dr Doft made me feel very at ease and assured me she would be able to help my son. She put on special molds for him to wear for about 6 weeks. His ears look so great and you would never be able to tell that he had an issue with them. Dr Doft was a pleasure to work with and so was her receptionist. So often in NYC I call an office to make an appointment and get off the phone in such a bad mood because the majority of receptionist here have such bad attitudes and don't care about the people calling. Michelle is a breath of fresh air. She is quick to answer calls and was happy to help me. I loved my experiences here so much that for the first time in my life I considered getting something done for myself. I asked about fillers and Dr Doft gave me all the info I wanted and never tried to push me or upsell me. I have to say I love the results and will be considering doing more in the future. Thank you Dr Doft and Michelle! read more

Wow!!! Where do I even begin! Dr. Melissa Doft is an exceptional plastic surgeon! I was given two diff. surgeons telephone numbers by a very reputable NYC dermatologist. After calling both, I got an incredible vibe over the telephone speaking with the office manager, Michelle. She was beyond sweet and accommodating that I knew just based off of Dr. Doft's reviews elsewhere, her credentials and the way her staff conducted themselves this was the doctor for me. Well let me tell you, I made the BEST decision of my life by entering Dr. Dofts beautiful office for a mole removal on my face, something very serious as this was something I and everyone else sees on a day-to-day basis. Dr. Doft came out of her office and personally brought me into her surgical room. She made me feel at ease, calm, and had the best bedside manners ever. Dr. Doft spent way more time than she ever needed to with me. She didn't make me feel rushed at all, answered all of my questions and then some! And she even gave me a personal tour of her office. Dr. Doft takes conservative measures, which is what I love about her. She will be honest with you and is not the type to rush you into anything just for the "money"...she truly cares about how YOU feel. Dr. Doft keeps you looking natural, while emphasizing your best features. Her attention to detail is like none I've ever seen before. She is brilliant beyond her years and I swear by her. After going to her once, she made me feel like family. Not only is she super smart and her hands are like magic, but she is comforting, warm, and so beyond personable that she tops every plastic surgeon out there. she truly is the full package, and worth a visit. I cant recommend Dr. Doft enough. In fact, i just went back today for another procedure, and again, she treated me like a family member and really accommodated my needs, along with working with my work schedule to ensure that I could be seen by her. I travel from Long Island now just to see her and even if she were further than NYC I would drive the extra mile(s) for Dr. Doft. She and Michelle (her office manager) will go beyond their means to help you obtain the best results possible and to ensure highest quality service. Their office feels so chic, elegant, and like a spa. I will continue to go to Dr. Doft and am very pleased with the end results after my procedure. read more
