I had wanted a rhinoplasty since I was 13, but I was always hesitant because I already had good…read morebreathing and was afraid of negatively affecting it. After doing a lot of research and reading reviews, I decided to see Dr. Westreich. I mentioned that I also had some crookedness inside my nose, and we decided to do a septoplasty along with the rhinoplasty. It genuinely turned out to be one of the best decisions I've made. I absolutely love how my nose looks. Before surgery, it was always the first thing I noticed when I looked in the mirror. Now I barely think about it, which is probably one of my favorite things about the result. It looks natural, fits my face, and no longer distracts me the way it used to. What surprised me most was how much better my breathing became. I thought I breathed well before, but I didn't realize how much easier it could be. Whenever I had a cold, clearing my nose used to be extremely difficult. I would literally twist my nose from side to side trying to clear the mucus from my nose and throat, and it could take me weeks to completely recover. Now I can simply blow my nose and everything clears so easily. I can feel the clearness all the way through my nose and throat. Sorry for the details, but this has honestly been life-changing for me and was a completely unexpected benefit of the surgery. The entire process was also incredibly well managed. I was amazed that after both rhinoplasty and septoplasty, I had essentially no pain and a very smooth recovery. Having Dr. Westreich nearby also gave me peace of mind knowing I could easily see him if I needed anything. I love how my nose looks, how it feels, and how much better I can breathe. After wanting this since I was 13, I couldn't be happier with my decision. 10/10 experience and I would absolutely recommend Dr. Westreich!

Dr. Westreich is an amazing and highly skilled facial plastic surgeon. I've been seeing him for…read moreover a year and have had several procedures done, including fat transfer, lip lift, corner lip lift, alar base reduction, temporalis lip augmentation, and chin augmentation. I also see him regularly for injections like Botox, Sculptra, and EZ Gel. I keep going back because I consistently see real results that still look very natural. As someone who has become pretty well-versed in plastic surgery (for better or worse!), I truly believe Dr. Westreich is the real deal. I originally found him through extensive online research and because he met a very specific set of criteria I had. I was looking for a facial plastic surgeon (not someone who also does body work), double board certified, with an elite educational background (I know that sounds a bit snobby, but it gave me peace of mind), an office in one of the more expensive Manhattan neighborhoods (sounds snobby again, I know!), a strong reputation for rhinoplasty (since it's one of the most technically challenging procedures), a professional and well-kept office, not cheap but not super expensive, and great bedside manner. Very few doctors checked all those boxes. I called each one, and ultimately chose Dr. Westreich--and I'm so glad I did. I'm extremely happy with all my procedures. A few things worth noting: Dr. Westreich's work is subtle and natural. If you're looking for something more dramatic or "snatched," you should be very clear about that during your consultation. He's also very comfortable saying "no" if he doesn't think a treatment is right for you. While that's what any ethical doctor should do, I felt Dr. Westreich was especially thoughtful about it. I even asked about a facelift, and he told me I wasn't there yet--something I think many other doctors would have been willing to do. He offers a same-day booking discount that requires a deposit, but you still have time to change your mind and receive a full refund. Some of the negative reviews seem to stem from misunderstandings about this policy. Personally, I appreciated the discount, never felt pressured, and always found the staff to be kind and professional. That said, if this type of booking structure doesn't sit well with you, this office may not be the right fit. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my experience and highly recommend Dr. Westreich if you're looking for natural-looking results from a skilled and ethical facial plastic surgeon.

I recently went to Dr. Schaffner for a complete revision of a surgery I had about 11 years ago. My…read moresituation is that I had implants put in that I was not happy with because not only were they bigger than I'd wanted but also a noticeable difference in size between the two. I'd spent about 2 years researching the different surgeons in NYC and was just so confused at who to choose because I really was worried the surgery wouldn't be what I'd wanted and it's a big decision to take lightly. Dr Schaffner was referred to me and from the first visit, I was completely at ease. He explained everything thoroughly (maybe a bit too much but better to over explain things) and showed what went wrong and how it went wrong with my first surgery. He also showed how he could fix it but did explain that it wouldn't be perfect. I had realistic expectations so pretty easy going with moving forward. I wanted to go smaller but he explained that he could do whatever I wanted, but I had to determine if I wanted much smaller or smaller and more full because it would be impossible to do both and I'm glad he told me that upfront instead of all the other surgeons saying "sure" and then not being able to do it because your skin can only do so much. Skipping ahead to day of the surgery: I was really nervous. I basically had 2 surgeons working together (one from another country and dr schaffner who spent a decent amount of time with the game plan of how to best proceed with other physician), along with an awesome anesthesiologist and nurse (who was literally a life saver because she really helped me relax). I'm not sure why I was so scared but next thing I knew, I woke up and felt no pain. Day 3, the bandages are off and I'm so happy with results. I know I am still swollen but I'm already stoked with the results. Side note: he gave me his cell phone before surgery and responded to all my questions right before surgery (over the weekend). He had already answered them but I kind of needed reassurance several times and he never made me feel like I was bothering him or wasting his time.

This review is based solely based off a consultation that I had with Dr. Adam Schaffner and the…read morehorrible office experience that I had. I was inquiring about getting a breast implant exchange with a possible breast lift. I was looking for someone who prioritizes on safety. Someone referred me to Dr. Adam Schaeffner, they stated that he was triple board certified. I looked him up and booked the consultation. The consultation fee was $250. At first, I was impressed because he answered the contact number after business hours instead of an answering service. He explained to me that I would be receiving a form from him shortly and he would need me to fill this out so that he can get some information about me. Prior to arriving at his office, I received a call from his patient care coordinator Christina, telling me to make sure I pay the consultation fee of $250 or else I will not be seen. I thought that was weird because I am well aware that this fee has to be paid prior to visiting with the surgeon. When I went to see Dr. Schaeffner I thought he was professional at first, he asked me questions regarding my past medical history. He asked that I bring my mammogram during this visit along with my implant product code. I asked numerous questions and I felt like some of his answers did not satisfy my needs. For example, I asked him about the demographics of his patients. This was important to me because I am Carribean American and a lot of doctors assume we want a certain look without really knowing our aesthetic. Also, statistically, research has shown that our requests are often ignored. It was important that I explained the aesthetic that I wanted to achieve. Of course his response was that he finds that a lot of black women want large breasts and large rear ends. His presumptuous statement turned me completely off,I corrected him and informed him that that wasn't the aesthetic that I was looking for. I explained to him that I wanted a more refined waist line where my love handles can be addressed with lipo and I wanted a breast implant exchange with a lift (I'm 5'3 and my measurements was 36-31-44. I weight 165 at the time of my visit.) He then asked my permission to take pictures of my breast. This is where things went sideways, he touched my belly and told me to cough and proceeded to tell me that I have a small diastasis recti and that I needed a tummy tuck in order to tighten my stomach muscles. Keep in mind, I had two prior consultations and was never told this. After I got dressed I asked him the fees for the surgery and I asked him for a quote for this tummy tuck that he suggested. He was stammering and stated that there are numerous fees and because I hadn't exactly decided what I wanted he was unable to give me a quote. So then I asked a direct quote for a breast implant exchange, with a breast lift and a tummy tuck. He then proceeded to tell me to speak with his patient coordinator Christina, and left me in the room with her. When I directed the question to her, she was stammering as well and was hesitant to provide me with the quote. This was a bit weird to me because I've gone on two prior consultations and received a quote. When I asked to speak to Dr. Schaeffer again, all of a sudden he was "unavailable"and when I asked how long will he be unavailable for, I was told he is now on a phone conference. I waited a bit and when I asked Christina again for a quote, I was told that she needed permission first before giving me a price. Since I didn't get the quote like I usually do in person, I asked her to email me the quote. The duration of the consultation was literally 10 minutes....my two previous consults were 30-45 minutes, both surgeons were attentive, they answered all my questions, and I left with an itemized quote. When Christina finally emailed me the quote there was just one lump sum, nothing was itemized which makes me believe that this surgeon customizes prices for his customers. Needless to say, I went on real self and saw his before and afters and was appalled. I'm not sure why I didn't check real self prior to booking my consult, I definitely would not have wasted my time. For one, there was not a big change from the before and afters, I actually think a lot of his patients looked botched. He also did not have a broad demographic of patients. My advice to anyone looking to have plastic surgery...first check out real self and look at the pictures to see if the doctor fits your aesthetics, see if they perform surgery on people of your demographic, go to a doctor that does not rush you out their office to make a quick $250 to cover their rent on 5th Avenue. Always schedule multiple consultations and listen carefully to what these doctors are telling you. Lastly, get a referral from someone who personally got surgery from your doctor.

Even though it is ridiculous to charge a higher fee for a consult than the actual procedure, I agreed and tried to set up an appointment. I explained that I was getting this done prior to having other surgery (performed by another doctor). The receptionist then told me that because I was having surgery, the cost would now be $1,000. I asked why and whether the doctor would be doing anything differently. No I was told, but "those are our fees." Needless to say I ended the call and am looking elsewhere. I don't appreciate being uncharged and taken advantage of for no logical reason.

I can't imagine having a better plastic surgery experience than the experience I had with Dr. W and…read morehis team. I am now one-year post op after primary rhinoplasty (open) and neck lipo. I quickly forgot about my old nose and double chin. Those only exist in the horrific photos I sometimes come across and that is the only place they belong. So I'm going to break this review down into categories, so that it is easy for you to locate the part that is important to your search: 1. Results: - Very natural, essentially undetectable by a third party, but seriously impactful for me (in a positive way). My face has softened, feminized, and I no longer obsess over my nose on work calls. The feeling of disgust I felt every time I looked at myself in the mirror throughout the last few years has disappeared. There really isn't a price tag for that. Just going about your day NOT thinking about your nose.. imagine that! Even members of my family don't notice a thing. The kind of thing I hear often is: " you look younger somehow!". I"ll take that compliment any day! 2. Why Dr. Weintraub: - Other than the obvious - decades of experience, beautiful real patient post-op-photos , and elite credentials including industry groups like the Rhinoplasty Society (look it up), what struck me was that he immediately noticed what was RIGHT about my face, not just what needed improvement. I consulted with only the top rhinoplasty specialists in NYC and I am confident they all would have done a great job, but I couldn't shake the feeling of :"He's the one. I want him to operate in the center of my face." because I knew he actually really noticed my natural beauty and he would work to highlight that. Also - his patient results all truly looked unique. He didn't have a "style", which even the top NYC rhinoplasty surgeons have (you can always tell they add their own personal touch and you notice the pattern if you look at enough photos). Dr. W had no style - everyone looked like a hotter version of themselves, which is what I wanted for my look. I wanted no part of looking mass produced. 3. Experience: super smooth, easy and pain free recovery. I was back to normal in two days. Obsessing over my healing ups and downs was the hardest part, but Dr. W was there with me every step of the way, responding to my obsessive text messages promptly and answering all my questions. 4. His team: excellent - efficient, courteous, and all around treat you like royalty. Everyone from the administrative staff (Jill, Nicole, Justin) to the nurses, surgical assistants, and the anesthesiologist - everyone brought their A game to work. 5. I also really respect Dr. W's long term thinking ethos. He gave me advice regarding my neck/chin area that was very different from the advice I got from other surgeons, but it made a lot of sense to me, so I went with his (less is more) approach, so that in the event I wanted work done at some point later in life (and let's be honest, I'll be getting a facelift when I'm in my mid-60s), so that I would have the best outcome. In summary: I look like a younger, fresher, more feminine version of myself. My own parents, who were terrified about the whole thing, are thrilled that I still look like their daughter.

I underwent my initial gynecomastia surgery with Dr. Weintraub. He claims to employ a unique…read more"basket" cannula to excise firm gland tissue without cutting the nipple, instead accessing it through the armpit. However, I am here to inform anyone who is apprehensive about scars, hesitant to travel, or facing any other concerns that if you opt for a surgeon like this, you will only receive liposuction, contrary to what you were assured. In my case, the results of liposuction alone were aesthetically inferior to my previous appearance. In stark contrast to what Dr. Weintraub promised and what he advertises on Instagram, he did not remove ANY gland tissue. A different surgeon recently removed gland from me and verified it with photos. The second surgeon confirmed that I had previously undergone liposuction alone. Worse, even the lipo only procedure that Dr. Weintraub performed was uneven, removing way more from one side. I'm still dealing with the asymmetries. For this he charged me over $13,000. I believe there's only one reliable way to remove gland, and that's through the areola. I now understand that a skilled surgeon can minimize scars and can prevent cratering. Don't let an unscrupulous surgeon play on your fears.

Thoughtful, thorough and accommodating, they also were so well informed about everything - so enthusiastic to listen (which sadly is rare in such environments). The office itself was great. The products and accessories were amazing for a fulfilling experience of getting a 'service' / 'treatment' vs being sold a product. Most importantly - Dr Zimm. By far the best. Thorough might be the word of the day here, because that's exactly what he was. Took the time to get to know his patient and to fully assess, a reminder of the customizable and individual treatment everyone deserves. Took time to explain everything, what you might want or not want to do (note without ANY tone of selling/marketing) simply responding with professional and considerate recommendations/option. I've never felt so comfortable and confident sitting in the patient's seat. The results of treatment I had done were exactly as he explained they would be. One more thing to note, even though there was nothing for me to change, tweak or I personally didn't like...I feel totally comfortable in this environment to say if there were. There is no doubt the staff would respect my personal wants and desires, rather than interpret it as a judgement of the Dr's work. From the second I walked in everything is catered and designed to the patient.

I resisted getting surgery to restore my breathing for years. Procrastination only prolongs your…read moremisery and never solves any problems, only taking action does. Constant snoring, mouth breathing and the eventual collapse of my nasal valves upon respiration was beginning to be too much of a burden as I aged. All this in combination with a shrinking nose was about all the motivation I needed to finally take some action. After my 60th birthday, I decided it was time to do something about it because I'm not getting any younger. The clock is simply ticking away, and I want to live healthier for my remaining years on this earth. Rhinoplasty is Dr Dibelius's sole specialty, and it shows in large part in the results of his patients. I developed a keen eye for nasal aesthetics over many years and I could quickly dismiss a surgeon after just viewing a sampling of their work and I was able dismiss countless surgeons just by viewing their websites; needing to see only 10 or so of their patient's results. I always knew when someone had surgery on their nose because there were telltale signs left behind by less qualified surgeons and even when no one else could tell, I always could. My result today by Dr Dibelius is beyond my expectations and who could ask for more than that? The result is essentially the same nose I was born with but more refined looking and in complete harmony with my face. I breathe like a champion racehorse which motivated me to take up running again. Dr Dibelius understands the difference between a surgical appearance and a natural appearance. Notwithstanding my original God given nose, I never looked more natural or better than I do now and the result in function and aesthetics is excellent (to say the least). A special thanks to Amy and Sophia for all their genuine caring work, follow-ups and administrative work behind the scenes. These two women were like family to me and treated me in loving way during my whole journey. In conclusion, I'd advise you to do your own due diligence so don't take my word for this but just do research, investigate and consult with at least 3 surgeons; but do yourself a favor and consult with this highly trained surgeon as at least one of your options. I suspect it will be one of your best decisions you ever made if you want to minimize your risk and obtain a beautiful result you can live with for the rest of your life. IMHO, it is an understatement to say Dr Dibelius is a rhinoplasty genius and I am blessed and grateful to have been his patient. Like
