Dr. Barrera has the magic touch. I made the mistake of going to another plastic surgeon because I did not like the drive since I moved almost 2 hours away. Dr. Barrera initially did my breast implants, GREAT JOB! However, I waited too long to get them replaced , there was a small rupture and got them removed. My mistake is going to a different doctor. Nice guy, but I had a lot of issues after the removal of my implants and the lack of concern by the nurses in that office was very upsetting. I also had rhinoplasty there because I broke my nose in high school and had lots of difficulty breathing. I was not trying to change my nose, I just wanted to breathe better and it completely changed my face and I did not recognize myself. During the same procedure, fat was placed under my eyes to help the bags. Too much fat was placed and the fat really never dissolved and started looking lumpy. Needless to say, I will never return. Having said all that Dr. Barrera fixed my breasts, they are BEAUTIFUL! He did minor work on my nose and removed the fat and lumps from underneath my eyes. AND I FINALLY, AFTER 7 years, I RECOGNIZE THE GIRL IN THE MIRROR!!! THANK YOU DR. BARRERA! I am so grateful to you and your AMAZING and CARING staff! I will NEVER go anywhere else! Dr. Barrera you are FOREVER MY #1! Much love and admiration!

From the initial consultation appt w Dr. Barrera to the final check-up, each step of the procedure is flawless. His support team is so accommodating and friendly as well as helpful before, during n after procedure. Every question I had, and there were a lot, was answered and discussed. The surgery itself was painless and the recovery has been easy!! Dr. Barrera did a beautiful job, and I feel great!! Thank you❤️❤️❤️

Dr. Barerra - Houston’s Michelangelo and Leonardo Da Vinci. In my past I worked with and assisted several plastic surgeons in Houston – non came even close to the quality of Dr. Barerra - who is both an artist and a phenomenal surgeon. He is kind, thoughtful, patient, caring, authentic as well as a gifted and a most knowledgeable doctor. He and his staff are beyond AMAZING - always professional as well as personally invested in their client’s wellness and overall satisfaction. Dr Barerra you are one of the most professional and talented people that I have ever had the opportunity to meet. Your follow-through, attention to detail, artistic touch and focus are incomparable. From start to finish one is guaranteed an award-winning performance with support, service and outcome that is not only perfect - but delivered with kindness, high level of ethics and unforgettable all in the same breath. Like any worthwhile relationship, doctor /client affiliation brings together ideas and common goals. Striking the delicate balance between likes and dislikes can be difficult. The traits I hold in high regard personally and professionally are - talent, integrity, intelligence, kindness and respect. Consequently, I am compelled to tell you that Dr Barerra’s talent, knowledge and artistic and surgical skills are beyond superior. His willingness to go over and beyond the call of duty makes the reason I believe he is the best plastic surgeon in Houston obvious. Dr. Barerra’s commitment to a tip-top ship and perfection is evident. I salute Dr. Barerra today for his incredible talent and professionalism in providing care full of commitment to excellence and incredible creativity. With Dr Barerra being at the helm – his practice is destined to be the best from port to port.

Dr. Barrera is wonderful and I had such a great experience with rhinoplasty and a small fat transfer to my lips. He is an incredible and skilled surgeon, and really listens to your concerns. His staff is also fantastic - Jessie is so kind and was so patient with answering any questions that I had leading up to my surgery date, and all of his office staff are so sweet and patient as well. I travelled from Dallas for my appointments and would have travelled further if I needed to. The whole process, from consultation to the day my cast was removed were such a breeze. The fact that the surgery itself was painless and that I had virtually no bruising after truly speaks to Dr. Barrera's skill and experience. Just 7 short days after surgery, my nose already looks perfect with hardly any swelling. My lips are exactly what I was hoping for, with a bit more volume but still very natural. There are a few more small procedures that I want to have done and I would not go to anyone else besides Dr. Barrera.

I went to Dr. Barrera today on the recommendation of a friend who has had good results on facial procedures as well as hair loss therapies done by him. I...

Dr.Barrera came highly recommended by another surgeon who said Dr. Barrera did the BEST hair transplants, so with that recommendation I drove from Dallas to Houston to have my 'sideburns' replaced after a recent facelift. It is still early in the game but my hairline looks better than the one mother nature gave me!! Dr. Barrera was wonderful to work with, he explained each step and made sure I was comfortable at all times. I couldn't say enough good things about Dr. Barrera and his staff and would highly recommend him for any cosmetic procedure you are considering!
