Robert M. Lowen, Dr

This is a somewhat late review, from a procedure I had done about a month ago. For eight years I had a large lipoma on the inside of my right thigh (larger than a golf ball). It wasn't obvious in loose pants but if I was in shorts or a bathing suit I was self conscious and couldn't fully enjoy myself because I didn't want to bend a certain way and have people see it, ask questions, etc. I was embarrassed, even with my husband... who had obviously seen it many times.
I finally decided to seriously consider removal and I found Dr Lowen, who uses an amazing method for removal that isn't done anywhere else. His method of using liposuction to break up the lipoma and then pull out leaves a tiny scar from the probe, rather than a huge cut (read: scar) the entire length of the lipoma. The cost of the procedure was much less than I was expecting and the care I received was amazing.

Dr. Lowen is a straight shooter (do you want lies and fluff when someone is working on your aesthetics?) He is very up-front and honest and will give you the best recommendation possible to give you the results you are really looking for. The women in his office are amazingly nice and polite and accommodating. I mostly interfaced with his assistant V, who was always in the room during our visits. She helped me so much with my anxiety the day of the procedure by just talking to me and getting my mind off of it.

I'm about a month and a half post-procedure and I am so thrilled with the healing. Recovery was fast and I really had no pain. I had some minor tenderness, which is to be expected but I never needed to fill the pain killer prescription he gave me. I took Ibuprofen the first day and never needed to take anything again.

I am looking forward to getting more work done from Dr Lowen soon.
