Aside from a breast reduction ( RESULT-permant scaring under both breasts), I requested 2 additional procedures: LIPO AND A FACIAL PLUMPING WITH THE LIPO FAT. BOTH THE BREAST REDUCTION AND THE FACE PLUMPING HAD DISASTEROUS RESULTS. I underwent liposuction just to obtain the fat to plump up my face and create a younger look. The results were a large (teacup-sized, painful) bruise around my left side from the liposuction, and NO FACE CHANGE AT ALL. My face looked and felt the same post op. I do not believe he did ANYTHING. I paid a great deal of money for lipo to add fullness to my face. THERE WAS NO VISIBLE RESULT. When questioned regarding this, he replied," I wanted to give you a natural look." HE DOPES NOT LISTEN OR FOLLOW THROUGH. Despite some positive reviews, I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS DOCTOR. read more

I had top surgery with Dr. Costas. As a non-binary person I wanted a more androgynous chest and struggled to find examples of that so I had to just vaguely describe what I was looking for. Dr. Costas agreed he could give me what I wanted and he followed through. I'm a few weeks post surgery and happy with my results. Dr. Costas is very chill and has a good attitude and made me feel very secure in my choice of doctor, especially day of when I was pretty nervous. He does not have a BMI requirement like other surgeons in the Boston area. read more

I have to say Dr. Paul Costas is the nicest, most caring Doctor I have met. My experience with him and his staff is incredible. The surgery basically gave me my life back. He is not only amazing at what he does, but he makes you feel comfortable and secure. You will not be in any better care than with Dr. Costas, MD. I would not hesitate to do it all over again. I have never been happier with my treatment and very fortunate to have had this experience with Dr. Costas. Top notch in every way!! read more

Dr Costas and his staff are amazing!!! From the first email to Jane requesting a consult to my post operative care they all have been friendly, caring, encouraging and understanding. Being a trans man with size H breasts I have never liked who I saw staring back at me in the mirror but thanks to Dr Costas and his staff I can look at my reflection and see the person I've always known I was. At the consultation Dr Costas took the time to answer all my questions, showed me some images of how I could expect the procedure to turn out and made jokes which did wonders to make me feel more comfortable. They truly care and understand the struggles a trans person faces and does all they can to make sure they are able to be their authentic self. I will forever recommend Dr Costas to anyone I speak to and will always be grateful to him and his staff for allowing me to finally feel comfortable in my own body. read more

I'm thrilled with the care I received at Concord Plastic Surgery! Dr. Paul Costas, who is an extraordinarily skilled surgeon, completely transformed my body by performing a tummy tuck on me. I remember the day following the surgery, I saw my new belly for the first time and felt like crying I was so grateful. Dr. Costas is kind and really listens. His staff is also exceptionally nice, helpful and reassuring. Just couldn't have been a better experience. read more

Dr. Costas performed my top surgery two months ago at Emerson Hospital and I could not be happier with the results! Everything from the initial consultation through my follow up appointments has been a breeze. Dr. Costas has an awesome bedside manner and his office staff is absolutely wonderful. read more

Dr Costas forever improved our teenager's life. Having the wrong body for who you are is a daily, horrible experience. Imagine growing the wrong private parts tomorrow. How would you feel? Would it be easy to get through your day, feel grounded and well, and contribute to the world in a connected and positive way? Dr. Costas understands this. Despite the anti-trans hate and rhetoric that poison our culture, there are people like Dr Costas who understand the true importance of listening to the individual and believing that they best know who they are. Our non-binary teenager and I visited five other surgeons before finally, with great relief and joy, finding one who listened, understood, and did a perfect job. Our teen is now more themself, and for the first time, they smile when they look in the mirror. Now they can move on to contributing their talents in our troubled world. Less hate, more listening. Thank you, Dr. Costas and team. read more

I recently had top surgery with Dr.Costas as my surgeon and he did a fantastic job. I cannot be happier with the results. The recovery was explained perfectly, and was super easy to deal with.

The environment was super great and Dr.Costas is a super awesome surgeon with a great bedside manner. I highly recommend Dr.Costas and his team. read more

Dr. Paul Costas is an excellent plastic surgeon with a kind, compassionate, and reassuring manner. During my initial consultation for what would be a breast reconstruction after chemo and mastectomy, he listened carefully to my needs and outlined my options in a clear manner. He worked collaboratively with my other doctors, never rushed me, and reflected a calm, confident demeanor. Because of his experience and because he prepared me so well throughout the process, I felt confident in him. I am very pleased with his work. Also of note is his welcoming and helpful staff. I highly recommend Dr. Paul Costas. read more

Dr. Costas is a wonderful surgeon! From the day I entered his practice, he made me feel right at home and very welcome. He took the time to listen to my concerns, discussed options and we decided on a plan. He coordinated the surgery with other medical professionals and always had a sense of humor. Dr. Costas deeply cares about his patients and I highly recommend him and his team to anyone considering plastic surgery. The office personnel are kind and supportive and walked me through all the preparatory steps. It should be noted that when I visit my primary care center in Groton and I rave about Dr. Costas, the other doctors all tell me they have heard the same wonderful "Dr. Costas" stories from other patients! read more

Dr Costas was amazing at guiding us through the process for Female to Male total chest reconstruction surgery. His 20+ years of experience with this surgery were exactly what we were looking for and he clearly connected with my 17 year old son and myself and inspired our confidence. The surgery was very effective and the follow up care we received made us glad we chose Dr. Costas. * We are now 8 weeks post surgery and admire Dr. Costa's work every day and am grateful for his skill and expertise and his humanness! We both highly recommend him! read more

Top notch experience from beginning to end. Dr. Costas was amazing and does unbelievable work! I had a tummy tuck and a breast augmentation. He gave me the results I wanted and was professional at all times. His staff was great, especially his assistant Jane - She was so easy to work with and was always there to answer any questions both before and after surgery. Cost was reasonable but having a surgeon like Dr. Costas whom you trust and put your confidence in totally made it all worthwhile. I will be going back! Five stars for sure! read more

Recently, I had male chest recontouring surgery performed by Paul Costas, M.D. The results were absolutely stellar-far better than anything I could have imagined. Dr. Costas clearly possesses superior skills and knowledge. Moreover, he's been performing this surgery for two decades, and there truly is no substitute for experience. At all times Dr. Costas and his staff were respectful, caring, and helpful. Perhaps one of the most compelling reasons to chose Dr. Costas is the exceptionally high expectations he maintains for his work-nothing less than the best will do. I highly recommend Dr. Costas without hesitation. read more

I am 58 years and had a DD cup. My breasts were heavy and it felt like a weight pulling down constantly. They were very uncomfortable. I had to wear athletic jog bras all the time otherwise people thought I wasn't wearing a bra because regular bras were not supportive enough. All bras I tried were painful and binding. I finally had enough and decided to have them reduced even though I was very scared. I explained to Dr. Costas my issues and what the results I desired. He was very reassuring and confident that he could provide these results. I wanted a small C. I had had enough of being too large all my life - I wanted to be small for the rest of it. Day of surgery I was nervous and he reassured me. He took a sharpie and drew all over me to ensure he would know where to cut and make them both even. The surgery took about 4 hours and when I woke up afterwards I was taken to my hospital room where the anesthesia wore off over the next couple of hours. I had on a surgical bra (spandex with Velcro closures in various locations so they could put it on me while still under anesthesia). I stayed overnight and the staff was competent and pleasant, and I thought the food was good too. Dr. Costas came about 11AM the next morning and took off the bra to examine me to ensure all looked as it should. There are a lot of scars, mostly underneath. Of course they look scary that first day. He showed me that the nipples still had sensation - I was worried they might be numb. I was released about 2pm and felt good considering what I had been through. He provided two surgical bras to wear and instructed how to place the dressings while the incisions healed. I went for the first follow-up about 10 days later. The incisions were healed so I didn't have to wear dressing any longer. I had to wear the bra day and night for 3 months so the breasts would be supported while healing. He instructed me to massage the scars with Vitamin E oil beginning from about week 4 for several months to break-up the underlying scar tissue. Every week I would see noticeable improvement. Good thing as they had a long way to go to be looking normal again. The incisions around the areola, and from the areola down were extremely fine stitches. As they healed they became less and less noticeable - I think eventually they will be hardly noticeable. The ones underneath are more noticeable but it is understandable as there was a lot of reconstruction that needed to be done. They are right where the bottom part of the bra is so they are not seen unless you are naked. I'm about 4 months post surgery and I am extremely pleased. They look great under a blouse. They are neither too heavy nor saggy. I am comfortable for the first time in my life - it is a literal weight off my chest. I feel so light. I take off my bra and my breasts don't fall down to my belly button - they stay right up where they were when I had the bra on. I only told my close friends but other people just think I've lost weight. I also think that the people I told think I had liposuction at the same time as I look so different. It is remarkable how large breasts affect your total appearance. Knowing what I know now, I would definitely do it again. read more

Dr. Costas is amazing. My mother suggested I see him before going with another practice. I booked my surgery on the spot. He made me feel comfortable and relaxed. He listens to what you like and don't like about your appearance and asks what you'd like to change. He suggests the least invasive procedure and makes sure you are happy with your results. I am so grateful to be his patient! His staff is warm, wonderful and accommodating as well. read more

I am a 69 year old woman who recently had much needed breast reduction surgery. It was a big decision and I was very nervous. Dr. Costas eased my mind and made me feel very comfortable with the upcoming procedure. After surgery he told me to call anytime I had any questions and I felt he meant this sincerely. I've been back for my first follow up; I am healing very well and am so pleased with the outcome. I cannot give high enough praise for Dr. Costas and his staff and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone considering plastic surgery. read more

Hello everyone out there who is looking to have breast augmentation. Dr. Paul Costas is the plastic surgeon to see. I had my breasts done for the first time in 2002.

(Old age does that to us ladies). I'm 61 and have the breasts of a much younger woman. Can I say I'm thrilled!! Thank You Dr. Costas.. read more
