I Am Absolutely Thrilled with my Results and Experience

Choosing the right plastic surgeon can feel overwhelming, but I can confidently say that working with Dr. K was the best decision I could have made. From the very first consultation, it was clear I was in expert hands—not just in terms of surgical skill, but also in how the entire experience was managed. Dr. K has an exceptional eye for detail and delivered results that were not only beautiful, but exactly what I had hoped for—natural, balanced, and expertly done. The communication throughout the entire process was phenomenal. Every step was explained clearly, and I always felt informed and empowered in the decisions being made. The office itself runs like a well-oiled machine—efficient, professional, and warm. What also stood out was the PA, Amina who assisted during my care. Her compassion, attentiveness, and clinical expertise was incredible. Dr. K and his team blend artistry, precision, and genuine care making for a great outcome for his patients. I’m so thankful for my results and the journey it took to get here. Thank you Dr. K and your team.

Excellent Experience and Care!

I am so very thankful to Dr. K and his staff. Dr. K did an amazing job with my abdominoplasty surgery! I am extremely pleased with my results and could not have chosen a more truly caring surgeon. From my very first visit Dr. K made me feel comfortable and at ease. Office staff are outstanding! Everyone is so friendly, professional and helpful. Office itself is modern and extremely clean. Appointments have always been on time, exactly as scheduled, if not early. I would highly recommend Dr. K. and his office to anyone considering plastic surgery.

Dr. K and His Team Were a God Send!

"Good physicians treat the disease, the great physician treat the patient who has the disease"-W. Oster I had been suffering from a painful (infected) cyst and a few providers hadn't taken my concerns seriously and left me feeling disheartened. From the first phone call to my last check up, Dr. K and his amazing team heard me, gave me the best care, treated me with kindness and individualized care. My family and I truly appreciate your professionalism, empathy and dedication. They even allowed my two year old, to come to office during one of my check ups and show my mother how to change my dressing and care for the incision site. I didn't go for an elective surgery, but one of urgent need of medical care. I witnessed first hand how much Dr. K cares and attends to every detail. I am sure he treats every patient and case, the same way. So grateful for him and his team.

Dr. Kayastha is a Fantastic Dr

Dr. Kayastha and his staff are wonderful! From the moment I met with Dr. K for my consult I knew he was the surgeon for me. He answered all my questions and concerns and never once did I feel rushed. I am thrilled with my results and couldn’t be happy with Dr. K’s work!

5 Stars Isn’t Enough!

I recently had an extended abdominoplasty done with Dr.Kayastha and PA Amina. I could not be happier with my care and the results. Dr. K and Amina’s collaborative approach makes each visit feel thorough. They spend a lot of time with you planning and providing extremely realistic expectations for surgical results. K. Plastics also worked with my health insurance to get a portion of my surgery covered. During my search for a surgeon, some offices would not even consider submitting to insurance, and many seemed off-put by the request. Dr. Kayastha was compassionate about my functional health struggles with loose skin and was willing to advocate for me. He understood my goals without offering additional surgeries or trying to upsell during consultation. Dr. Kayastha and Amina practice with meticulous skill. Surgery and recovery went smoothly. My post-op care was exceptional and frequent enough to ensure no complications or unnecessary pain. Aesthetically my results have more than exceeded my expectations! But the physical and mental benefits top all that!!! I can now enjoy the level of physical activity I desire without unwanted skin irritation and infections. My 5k time is already faster than pre-op, now that I’m able to run without aggravating my back! I’ve waited and planned for this surgery for 20 years. I did not take the decision to pursue surgery lightly, but I was so sure in my decision about choosing K. Plastic Surgery and would do so again! 10/10 recommend!

I lost confidence after breastfeeding and decided to look into my options. From the consultation through my post surgery follow-ups, Dr. K and his staff have provided the best medical attention I have ever experienced! Dr. K explained the why behind every decision and patiently answered all of my questions. He is incredibly personable, talented and knowledgeable. I am grateful for my life changing results and highly recommend scheduling a consultation!

Amazing Experience!

I simply cannot say enough good things about the care I received from Dr. Kayastha and his staff at K Plastic Surgery. Dr. Kayastha took the time to fully explain what to expect and then delivered results on my mommy makeover that not only met my expectations, but exceeded them. If you are thinking about body contorting he’s the best in the business.

Exceeded my Expectations

I recently had an extensive stomach procedure performed by Dr. K, and I cannot recommend him highly enough! My journey to find the right plastic surgeon included consultations with several professionals, but Dr. K stood out due to his thoroughness and the exceptional support from his PA and office staff. From the very first consultation, I was impressed by Dr. K's attention to detail. He took the time to answer every question I had, never making me feel rushed. His dedication to patient care is unlike anything l've experienced before. The prices for his services are also very fair, which is an added bonus. What truly sets Dr. K apart is his meticulous approach throughout the entire process. He guided me through every single step, ensuring I felt comfortable and informed. I knew he was skilled, but the results of my procedure exceeded my expectations. The entire experience was nothing short of phenomenal. If you're looking for a plastic surgeon who genuinely cares about his patients and delivers outstanding results, Dr. K is the one to see!

Thrilled with results! He was supportive of my choice for horizontal incision

I cannot begin to put into words how thrilled I am with my results! I have been wanting an abdominoplasty for over 10 years and finally decided it was time. I researched online and Dr. K hands down had the best reviews. I scheduled a consultation with him and then life happened and I wasn’t able to find the time to schedule the surgery. Almost a year later I went back. Dr. K did another consultation without showing any frustration or concern that I hadn’t followed through after the first one. He walked me through different options to get the results I was hoping for. While he did advise as to what type of surgery would maximize my results, he also was supportive of my choice to do the more “traditional” method with the horizontal incision rather than the vertical. From there the staff were incredibly helpful with scheduling the procedure and giving me all the information I needed as to next steps and what to expect. When I saw my primary for pre-op he asked who I was going to. When I said Dr. K, my PCP referred to him as a “rockstar” and spoke very highly of him both as a surgeon and person. During other pre-op processes I had two different nurses on two different days tell me how amazing his work is and how he would be the person they went to if they were to ever get work done. These were all unsolicited opinions but certainly made me happy to hear. The day of surgery came. Dr. K was prompt, thorough, and reassuring. Amina, his assistant, was equally as wonderful and they compliment each other so well. After surgery they both were incredibly responsive when I wasn’t tolerating the antibiotic. Dr. K really had the best bedside manner, and beyond the amazing work he did, he also built my confidence with his kind words and encouragement throughout the process. To clearly be able to see HE was excited about his results really meant the world to me! I’m just under 3 months post-op and I am beyond thrilled with my results! It has exceeded my expectations! I LOVE my figure … and I didn’t need any liposuction and still opted for the horizontal incision. I can see why Dr. K had talked about other options, but he also didn’t hesitate to reassure me that the results would still be excellent with the method I chose. He was spot on! I’ve healed incredibly well, couldn’t be happier with my results, and am so incredibly grateful for Dr. K, Amina, and the team! I would recommend K Plastic Surgery to anyone who was thinking about having work done. My experience could not have been any better!

I honestly cannot put into words how thrilled I am

If I could give 10 star rating, I would. Dr. Kayastha and Amina are fantastic! I have been thinking about the surgery for well over a decade and have seen 3 other doctors for consultations. After I met with Dr. Kayastha, I had no doubts that he was the one I was going to go with. He is very thorough and you never feel rushed with concerns or questions you may have. He 100% listens to your wants and concerns. I love the fact that you have 2 separate consultation appointments and that he really takes the time to go over everything very thoroughly. He takes time with measurements and explaining the best possible options for you. The day of surgery was great. I was certainly nervous but he and Amina were so confident and reassuring, it put my nerves to rest. Their bedside manners are the best! Surgery went great and loved that he called later that day to check in on me to see how I was doing. Post surgical appointments went very well. The office staff is always so kind and welcoming. It's always nice to walk in to such friendly smiles. I honestly cannot put into words how thrilled I am. My only regret is that I did not do it sooner. Dr. Kayastha listened and with his expertise I got EXACTLY what I hoped for. I couldn't be happier and would definitely recommend him.
