“Best Guy in Town for Nasal Surgery - Pasadena, CA”

Rhinoplasty

"How do I begin to discribe Dr. Schwartz? This guy really changed my life. He has very talented hands. My family felt comfortable with this surgeon, but I was the one going under the knife, and I was horribly scared. I was comforted knowing he does not schedule his surgery days with a high surgical volume. That means that I got more time with the doctor, and he took his time with my surgery making sure it was done ABSOLUTELY impeccably (it was a very long surgery). The whole team was personable and I felt safe throughout the whole experience. The care I received with Dr. Schwartz was excellent, it far exceeded my expectations. I would recommend him to anybody needing facial plastic surgery. Thank you Dr. Schwartz and your team for changing my life. Your one of the kindest human beings I have ever met. I hope you continue to change peoples lives."

“Tip Swelling 2 Mos. After Rhinoplasty - Pasadena, CA”

Rhinoplasty

"Board certified and good communicator. Only reason I didn't put excellent is because of my nose tip swollen for so long. May not be doctor's fault though. The Arnicare Arnica Gel is the best remedy I found to help the swelling and healing process.

Updated on 31 May 2011:
Just expect a longer healing period if this is a revision rhinoplasty surgery. Your skin is thicker and takes longer to take to its new form. Seriously the Apple Cider Vinegar is safe and very healing."
