Dr. Kasden is a phenomenal plastic surgeon. He did my breast augmentation in December of 2013 and it is flawless. I had to reschedule my procedure three times due to terrible weather in Fort Worth around that time, but he took the time out of his holiday and did my procedure on the morning of Christmas Eve, because he knew how badly and anxious I was to get it done already. They look amazing and I could not be happier with them. I have also been to him for consultations for other procedures and tomorrow I am going in for another small one. I am getting injections into my lips which I am very nervous about but would only trust Dr. Kasden to do this for me, because he is very result oriented and wants the best look for his patients. He is very straight forward and will tell you what will look good and what will not based on what you are looking for. Some may find this or his straight forward attitude as "arrogance" (in one of the earlier posts) but with his career I don't know anyone who wouldn't have to be straight forward with their patients, because these are very major things that he is dealing with and if he just did everything that his patients said and they didn't like how it turned out he would be to blame and no one would take the responsibility and realize that they told him to do it and he just went with whatever instead of being "arrogant" and telling you what would look best with your other features. He will tell you exactly how it is, but he always means it with the best intentions. Instead of calling your doctor "arrogant" you should probably think about all the people he has to deal with all day and you being 20 minutes late is your own fault and not his. He also explains everything about the procedure in depth and makes sure his patient understands it all and is comfortable before he EVER agrees to proceed with the process. I'm sure he told the lady who commented above, just like he has told me every time, that he does his most careful work and puts the most effort in that he can every time, but nothing is guaranteed because everyone's body chemistry is different and can reject the procedures and after time things can begin to go back to how they were because that is your natural body chemistry and how it is trained to be.
Also, just like that review said he does tell people when he doesn't see anything wrong with what they are wanting fixed, because everyone is hard on themselves and he genuinely wants his patients to feel better and know that they are insecure about something that even a plastic surgeon, who is a professional at recognizing flaws in people's bodies, doesn't see anything wrong. And that right there should tell you more about his character than anything, because he will tell you when he doesn't find anything wrong and point out the good in it and isn't just trying to find a flaw in everything his patients bring to him to make money off of them. He really cares to make sure you really want to have the procedure done and asks you questions to test that. This doesn't mean that he will not do the procedure anymore, because he will, but he will ask you more questions to test that than someone who he can find actual real flaws in what they want fixed. He doesn't want any of his patients to regret the work they get done.
I am sorry for my rant, but that review genuinely got under my skin, because Dr. Kasden is an amazing surgeon and has a great character and just because someone clearly didn't understand that he is a surgeon, not God, does not make him a bad surgeon or "arrogant".
Anyways, the best thing about Dr. Kasden is his desire to find out what look his patient is really going for. I am actually getting a referral from him to a rhinoplasty surgeon, because he no longer does rhinoplasty. I am very disappointed that he is no longer doing them and would feel much more comfortable with him doing it, but I know he will refer me to the best surgeon he knows for it. He has become like a family friend to us and has the best character and personality of any doctor I have ever been to and has a genuine concern for his patients. Besides the reconstruction of my nose, I will never even consider going to another plastic surgeon. I would recommend him to anyone ever considering getting any type of plastic surgery. read more
