First, a little background:
I had breast cancer in 2023 at age 39 and underwent a double mastectomy with immediate reconstruction by a different plastic surgeon. After a couple of revisions, I ended up with a botched breast reconstruction (asymmetrical squares -- awful!), and my abdomen was also left deformed from badly done fat grafting.
I went to Dr. Noah Prince for two corrective surgeries. First, he corrected the abdominal issues with a full tummy tuck. Then, a few months later (just six weeks ago, on December 10), he performed my fourth breast reconstruction.
When I tell you that Dr. Prince is a complete artist, I am not exaggerating. For the breast reconstruction, he definitely had his work cut out for him. He redid the work of two previous plastic surgeons, completely rebuilt me, and did a ton of pocket work to properly support the implants. The incision lines are SO thin, I already see them fading away to practically nothing. Such a night and day difference!
The tummy tuck was the only way to truly fix the abdominal issues, and even though it was considered "cosmetic," it was something I felt I needed in order to move past feeling like a botched former cancer patient. I feel so much better in my own skin again thanks to his work.
Not only is Dr. Prince a perfectionist and a highly skilled surgeon, he is also incredibly kind and genuinely cares. I don't understand the few negative reviews -- but I guess it's impossible to please everyone.
I trust Dr. Prince so much that I referred my sister to him for mastectomy reconstruction and my mother to him for another issue. I would not send two of the most important people in my life to anyone other than Dr. Prince.
One last thing -- pain:
I was never above a 2/10 for pain with either the tummy tuck or the reconstruction. Dr. Prince places patient comfort just as highly as he holds his surgical standards. I never felt like I would be dependent on any medications, and for both surgeries I was only on acetaminophen 1000 by day 3 post op breast reconstruction, and day 4 post op for the TT. read more
