I had my closed silicone removal surgery which was a lipo style I guess I could say. My experience Dr Katzen was very pleasant. He’s extremely kind and makes you feel heard and at ease. My surgery was May 9th and now that my swelling is down I can tell how happy I am with my results. He gave me exactly what I asked for! The hip dips the upside down heart shape. I am extremely happy my scars are almost not visible from laser. Thank you Dr Katzen you’re truly appreciated!

Dr. Katzen is one of the best doctors I’ve ever been to! He took such great care of me, was patient, answered all my questions, took my calls no matter how busy he was, and his work is amazing! He gave me follow up care for months after my surgery until he cleared me. I would recommended him with every fiber of my being!

Dr. Katzen did an amazing job on my son’s 360 body lift and breast reduction. He was professional, kind, and made us feel comfortable from the start. His attention to detail and expertise resulted in a transformation that exceeded our expectations.

I cannot express enough how life-changing my experience with Dr. Katzen has been. At 350 pounds, I was so unhappy with my body and struggled with my self-esteem for years. I lost 130 pounds with diet and exercise, but still had a lot of hanging skin and fat. Finding the right plastic surgeon for something as significant as a 360 body lift and breast reduction was daunting. After extensive research and consultations, I found Dr. Katzen, and it was the best decision I’ve ever made. Dr. Katzen is not just an incredibly skilled surgeon; he’s also one of the kindest and most considerate professionals I’ve ever met. From the first consultation, he made me feel comfortable and understood. He took the time to listen to my concerns, answer all my questions, and reassure me throughout the entire process. I felt confident that I was in the best hands possible. The results have exceeded my expectations. Dr. Katzen was able to remove 25 pounds of excess weight, and the transformation is nothing short of miraculous. My 360 body lift and breast reduction have given me a body I never thought I could have. For the first time in years, I feel confident, comfortable, and genuinely happy with how I look. Dr. Katzen's exceptional skills are matched by the incredible team he has by his side. Yeseka, Ariel, and Anna were outstanding throughout my entire journey. From the moment I walked into the office, they made me feel like I was part of the family. Yeseka was always there to answer my questions with patience and warmth, Ariel’s attention to detail and professionalism made every step seamless, and Anna's compassionate care ensured I was comfortable and informed throughout the process. Their combined support made a world of difference, turning what could have been a daunting experience into a smooth and reassuring one. Dr. Katzen’s team truly goes above and beyond to ensure that every patient feels cared for, and I couldn’t be more grateful for them. This isn’t just a medical office—it’s a place where kindness, expertise, and genuine care come together to create life-changing results. I am beyond grateful to Dr. Katzen for his incredible work and the genuine care he showed throughout this journey. If you're considering plastic surgery, especially something as life-changing as a body lift, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Katzen. He’s truly the best in the field, and I couldn’t be happier with my results!
