Sooooo, Worth It! - Cypress, TX

Tummy Tuck
"When having a procedure of this magnitude. Do your homework. Dr. B is highly accredited & when you meet him you will see why. His staff is friendly & accomodating. They work with you & make the whole process less anxious. Dr. B is a perfectionist & after all that is what we are looking for. I am so happy with my results I am reccomening him to a friend from out of town & offering to let her stay with me, just so she can use him. If you are considering cosmetic surgey. He is worth a consult. Very happy I chose him"

Dr. is Amazing! - Houston, TX

Breast Augmentation
"I went to Dr. B 5 years ago after loosing a significant amount of weight and loosing most of my breast mass. Dr. B and his ENTIRE staff are amazing! Dr. B and his staff took their time in answering all my questions, explaining every aspect of my procedure/surgery. No matter how many questions I had, Dr. B was patient, kind, and informative. The team was very honest with me, so that I had a full understanding of what to expect with my results. I felt like each of them took a genuine interest in me as a person. Just viewing Dr. B's work spoke volumes of his ability. With just meeting him, I felt very confident in choosing him as my surgeon. I cannot stress enough how amazing the staff at B Plastic Surgery actually are. I had fabulous results with my breast augmentation and lift. I am even on the website as a before and after! :) I am happy when I look in the mirror naked. That shows how perfectly Dr. B acheived what I was looking for. My breasts look natural, even better than they did before I lost the weight. I couldn't be happier. Because of the fabulous results of my augmentation and the comfort I felt with Dr. B, I went back to him 2 years ago to have liposuction done on my hips and thighs. He completely got rid of my saddlebags on my thighs. I feel confident, secure, and more than pleased with Dr. B. He is an incredible doctor that loves what he does and is amazing at it! His staff (especially Elizabeth) answers all my calls, help make special arrangements for me because I have to travel from out of town to have him as a doctor, and help allieviate any worry I might be having. I live an hour and twenty minutes from Dallas, but drive over 3 hours into Houston in order to have Dr. B as a surgeon."

Best Plastic Surgeon in Houston! - Houston, TX

Mommy Makeover
"Dr. B is one of the best doctors I have ever encountered in my life. I went on several consultations with board certified plastic surgeons. He made me feel comfortable and answered all of my questions. This doc is very thorough. And he listened to my goals to achieve the natural look I wanted. His before and after pictures were simply the best. I ended up booking surgery for breast augmentation and tummy tuck and I am soooo happy with my results! Dora and his staff are genuinely caring and made me feel at home with every visit. I would highly recommend Dr. B to anyone considering cosmetic surgery! He is truly the mommy makeover expert."

Great Doc, Great Results

Mommy Makeover
"Dr. Basu is approachable, direct, honest, and easy to communicate with and I have always been happy and satisfied with my experience and results. Several of my girlfriends had cosmetic procedures with Dr. Basu and it amazed me how fast they all recovered. They gave him the strongest recommendations. My experience completely exceeded my expectations. I immediately loved my results from my breast augmentation and tummy tuck. He really listened to my goals and I felt he was genuinely mindful of my safety and well-being. I barely needed any pain medications, and I was back to work in less than 2weeks! I HIGHLY recommend this doctor.‎ He is a gifted surgeon and my results speak for itself."

Why Did I Wait So Long After Gastric Bypass? I Am a NEW Woman!

Tummy Tuck
"Recovery following surgery (I had a tummy tuck, breast lift and implants) was rough, but each day was an improvement and the pain meds Dr. B prescribed were a tremendous help. Just make sure you have someone who can be your "nurse" through the recovery process because you will need someone close by to help you. The breast lift didn't "hurt" at all, but the tummy tuck was pretty uncomfortable during recovery and until the drains were removed. I was back at work 2 weeks following surgery on a limited basis."

I Love the Results - Houston, TX

"Excellent Doctor! Dr. Basu took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure. I was really concerned about the location of my scar, he asked me to bring my lowest underwear and he left my scar at that location. Believe it or not by procedure was just about pain free and I am healing up really well. Thank you Doctor Basu and Staff Alba M."

Amazing, As Always - Houston, TX

Eyelid Surgery
"Dr. B is an amazing doctor and very talented! This is my second time around going to him because I trust his judgement and know that he has my best interests. Each time he has been very informative on exactly how he will go about the surgery and comforts me in any way possible with his knowledge. You can definately tell Dr. B keeps up with the newest techniques and knows exactly what to do. Both surgeries were amazingly done and couldn't ask for a better doctor!"

I Love My Results! - Houston, TX

Breast Augmentation
"He did and amazing job on my breasts. I was an A cup and now I'm a D cup. I feel beautiful! I highly recommend Dr. B to anyone who is searching for an amazing plastic surgeon. He is caring, patient and so thorough. His staff is great as well; once you walk in you feel at home. I healed up so quickly. My results look so natural. I’ve since referred several girlfriends for their breast surgery and each and everyone has had awesome results. Look at his before after photos. They are the best. Thank you Dr. B, I am eternally grateful if it wasn't for you I wouldn't look and feel the way I do today."

Transformed my Life - Houston, TX

Body Lift
"I can honestly say that Dr. Basu has transformed my life. I lost over 130 lbs from my weight loss surgery. But I had all this loose skin and everything looked horrible even in clothing. I live in Louisiana and had two friend travel far to have Dr. Basu perform their body lifts. They look awesome and had no problems after their surgeries. My girlfriends finally convinced me to make the long trek to Houston for a consult. During my visit, I knew I had found the right doc for me."

Tummy Tuck and Lipo to Hips, Thigh, and Knee - Houston, TX

Tummy Tuck
"I went to several doctors before I chose Dr. Basu. His staff was very nice and professional. They made me feel very comfortable the minute I walked in. I barely had to wait. Dr. Basu was very knowledgeable. He answered all my questions and concern before I got a chance to ask them. He is all about getting the results you want but also getting to your goal safely. He never rushed me and did a very thorough exam. I am working with his coordinator, Brittney, and she answers my email quickly."

Awesome Surgeon with Outstanding Results! - Houston, TX

"Dr. Basu and his office exceeded all my expectations. I am a proud mother of 3 but my little blessings left me deflated, with sagging breasts and a horrible looking tummy. To be honest, I never thought I would go for plastic surgery, but I never thought having kids would ruin my figure. I was extremely nervous about my mommy makeover and I did tons of research on all of the plastic surgeons in Houston. Dr. Basu has extremely impressive reviews and credentials. I read all his patient reviews on this and other sites. But more importantly, I was most impressed with him when I met him during my first consultation. He was so informative and genuinely caring about my goals and safety. He was so thorough in my first visit that I honestly had no questions left. I felt truly educated about all my options. After visiting several "world famous" plastic surgeons in Houston, when I walked through the doors of Dr. Basu's office, I had a unique sense of security and comfort. This really validated that I was in the best of hands. And his before/after photos were also the best. I could not be any more thrilled with my results. And I've got my confidence back in my bikini! I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Basu and his staff for any plastic surgery procedure!"
