He Deserves All 5 Stars!!!
I cannot begin to express how pleased I am with the work that Dr. Castillo has done to make me feel happy with my body again. He definitely had his work cut out for him due to my previous surgeon doing a hack job on my breasts in 2021. I had my surgery just three days ago, so I am currently wrapped up. However, from what I have been able to see, I can already tell that he came through with exactly what I asked for: a fuller breast with a higher upper breast. I will come back

The Best Experience
I highly recommend Dr. Nelson Castillo for "nipple" inversion surgery. I worried that nothing could ever be done until I saw information on this Surgeon and his work. He has the best bedside manner and is highly qualified. I am a perfectionist and I would not hesitate to use him at all!
Dr. Nelson was awesome! I'm so thankful that Realself was where I originally found his information. I had a Mommy Makeover. I know I was lucky post-op to not have any complications, which can happen in instances through no fault of the surgeon, but I know that it largely was due to his technical skill. I had an extended operation with a number of different procedures and Dr. Nelson's results were out of this world. This was more of a once in a lifetime chance for me financially

Couldn't Be Happier with the Results!
My experience with Nelson Center for Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Dr. Castillo and his staff was excellent. All of the visits, from my first consultation, through the post-surgery follow-ups were very friendly, informative, and professional. When one is considering any procedure of this nature, it’s common to wonder if you’re doing the right thing, and if you’ve chosen the most qualified practice. I can tell you that from my first visit on, I knew I’d made the correct choice.
I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Nelson. From my very first appointment, his bedside manner stood out. He was calm, kind, patient, and made me feel completely heard and cared for throughout the entire process. Surgery and recovery can feel overwhelming, but his approach made such a difference. What impressed me most was how involved he remained after surgery. He followed up with me every day, checked in on how I was healing, answered my questions, and genuinely seemed

Nelson Castillo IS THE BEST
Doc was the best, I would call him a perfectionist! He told me everything I could expect during and after the procedure and I felt safe and secure. My results are everything I wanted! Breast implant removal with a reduction and lift. I am considering a tummy tuck next.
dr. castillo puts people before plastics. If you want that boutique like, personal feel, where everyone remembers your name & face go to him! If you want different than the overadvertised packed plastic surgery sweatshops promoted on ig this is the place. he's thorough & caring but no fluff. never saw me as dramatic or doing too much. he's just as particular about every little detail as me. seriously what I needed the most after my lifelong battle with weightloss. his
Dr. Castillo is truly amazing. From my very first consultation, I felt confident that I was in the hands of someone exceptionally talented, experienced, and genuinely caring. As a massive weight loss patient who lost over 150 pounds, I knew my case would be challenging. After all of that hard work, I simply wanted breasts that looked natural and proportionate to my body. Unfortunately, I learned the hard way that surgeons who operate on post-weight-loss patients should be selected
7 Weeks Post-Op — Lower Body Lift, Tummy Tuck w/ MR, Breast Lift + Implants & Lipo — I couldn’t be happier with my decision to choose Dr. Nelson Castillo as my plastic surgeon. I am currently 7 weeks post-op from a lower body lift, tummy tuck with muscle repair, breast lift with implants, and liposuction to my flanks and hips — and I am absolutely thrilled with my results so far. Even at this stage in recovery, my results have exceeded my expectations. I know I still have

Stellar! Best Dr I’ve Ever Seen.
The best doctor I have ever seen (I’m 60 years old & have seen many) One of my breast implants ruptured so this was not a planned surgery. Dr Castillo went above and beyond in every area. He worked to get me in for a consult asap, then rearranged his schedule to get me in for surgery (which wound up being far more extensive than just replacing an implant) Most importantly, he cares and he listens! He called every day after surgery, even on Easter Sunday! He did a phenomenal
