I reached out to Star Plastic Surgery in the spring of 2025 for a consultation and financing options on a gynecomastia removal procedure. I initially worked with Tonya who was so kind and professional and helped ease my anxiety about the timeframe issues and financing. Upon coming into Star Plastic Surgery, I met Dr. Reisin who professionally assessed my condition, made me feel comfortable, and assured me he could provide the best outcome. After getting a surgery day secured in my slow season at work, I came in to get the procedure done in mid December. The entire process was as good as I could have ever hoped for. The nurses, anesthesiologist, and Dr. Reisin did a perfect job of answering all my last second questions, made me feel comfortable, and delivered as good as an outcome as I could have ever hoped for. On top of this Dr. Reisin was able to complete my procedure with less incisions than initially expected which I am thrilled about. I am still healing from my procedure but the results are fantastic and I feel so much better about my appearance. I would without a doubt stand by and recommend this place. My entire experience from consultation, payments, pre surgery preparation, day of surgery, and aftercare has been a 5 star experience. Thank you to Dr. Reisin and his entire fantastic team!

I had an abdominoplasty to repair severe muscle separation after having two c-sections. I am four months post procedure, and I am So Happy with the results. Dr. Resin did an amazing job! He really listened to my concerns and went over every question I had. Every member of the team was caring and considerate. The surgical facility is super clean. And, most importantly, I no longer have core weakness and pain when exercising or lifting things! Thank you, Dr. Resin and everyone at Star Plastic Surgery!

Dr Reisin, Dr Ben and all the Star staff are AMAZING. I am a healthcare professional and my experience has been amazing - I had a facelift and look fabulous and not pulled. Everyone is kind and welcoming and my surgery was so seamless and pain free - I can not say enough about my positive experience. I did a lot of research and a lot of consults - Dr Reisin was the kindest and best of all. Wonderful facility.

I had a fantastic experience with Start Plastic Surgery for my keloid surgery. The team was professional, caring, and highly skilled. They took the time to explain the procedure thoroughly and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. The results exceeded my expectations, and I'm so grateful for their expertise. I highly recommend Start Plastic Surgery for anyone considering keloid treatment!

Dr. Reisin and all of his staff at Starr were absolutely amazing!! They were all patient, kind, compassionate, and honest. It’s very important to note (probably the most), Dr. Reisin is a genius with his skills. I researched a few different places and felt like they were the best for me. I’m truly blessed that I chose Starr and definitely got the best from everyone there. The facility is not only beautiful, but exceptionally clean. I felt more than comfortable, listened to, and very well taken care of. Thank you!!
