I had a fat transfer surgery 1 1/2 year ago with the Dr. Kornsteun. What I can say. I’m trying to fix what has been done by him since then. The face is uneven. Has no improvement , nor visual satisfaction. Just the fillers will give you a better result. I was promised to have an amazing result, instead I ended up spending more money on fixing what he has done. Would never recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Kornstein is a very talented plastic surgeon- I would recommend him to anyone looking for a natural result. I went to Dr. Kornstein for breast augmentation and was extremely excited, but also worried and hesitant because I never had any type of plastic surgery. Dr Kornstein and his staff relaxed and reassured me along my journey, and helped my mother relax during the process too- which took much effort! I decided to do my surgery with Dr. Kornstein because he took the time to understand what I really wanted my results to look like- he has much more of an artistic eye and assured me I'd have a natural result. They never rushed me in the office - even with the thousands of questions I had!

Dr. Kornstein performed a hairline lowering surgery on me just over 2 weeks ago and I am thrilled with the results. There was very little pain post-op and he and his entire staff have been nothing short of delightful. They go out of their way to make themselves constantly available, which is always comforting for the first few weeks after surgery (especially when you're a nervous person like myself). Thank you Dr. Kornstein and staff. You have truly changed my life.

I am 46 and have been a patient of Dr. Kornstein since 1998—when I came to consult with him at age 27. Over the years he has performed about 7 surgeries on me as follows: upper blepharoplasty (eye job), liposuction of butt and tummy, fat transfer to face (my favorite and still going strong), silicone breast augmentation (gorgeous and never a problem, still loving them!), chin implant, endoscopic brow lift, nose (bespoke and befitting my face), and most recently the cutting-edge “J Plasma” to my body for tightening after some additional lipo on inner thighs and tummy. With all this “work” done, one would think I may look “unnatural” or “too plastic.” Hardly! When people find out just what an “extreme makeover” I really am, they are absolutely shocked at how natural everything looks. Because I stayed with Dr. Kornstein all my life, and allowed him to be the gatekeeper of my procedures, I have avoided looking too done or being talked into things I don’t need. My earlier surgeries improved me aesthetically (and went far to help my self-esteem and confidence which therefore improved my life immeasurably). The later surgeries have been to maintain my totally youthful appearance, which I have helped along with diet and exercise and stress reduction. Dr. K. has always offered me elegant enhancements that were appropriate at the time. Dr. Kornstein operates from a set of basic artistic principles that value harmony and symmetry. Therefore his “eye” for what would be most beautiful to each person’s face and body is keen. But that is not enough: he is a “master craftsman,” meaning, he knows exactly what he’s doing in the Operating Room to execute to the end result. But further, he keeps up on the latest techniques and best-in-class technology (lasers, machines, and such) to enhance his work. He communicates, questions, listens: all the things you want so you’re both clear on what is ultimately wanted. Best: he leaves his ego at the door and just focuses on being the best and doing his best for his patients. Very lucky that he made such a difference in my early life and continues to keep me looking fresh and pretty.

Dr. Kornstein has performed 2 surgeries on me back in the mid 90's and I can't say enough wonderful things about him and his staff. I was well cared for and all my questions & concerns were immediately addressed with VIP service. From calling and making appointments, to scheduling, to being cared for by his wonderful nurses/ staff. My experience was so pleasant that I have since made several referrals and also plan to go back for maintenance and tweaking in my 50's . Dr K is the warmest, friendliest and most talented plastic surgeon in New York and I dare say beyond; I can't refer Dr. Kornstein and his staff too much because they are really that GOOD!!!

I had nose job 6 months ago. Dr. Kornstein is a great doctor! I had an amazing experience working with him. I wasn’t sure whether I wanted to get the surgery but after talking to him I knew that if anyone could give me the face I wanted, it would be Dr. Kornstein. I`m absolutely happy and confident with my appearance now! I strongly recommend him. Not only did he do a great job, he is very personable and puts you at ease. I'd recommend Dr. Kornstein to anyone who wants the very best doctor!
