I recently had an abdominoplasty with Dr. Bauermeister, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the initial consultation to post-op care, Dr. Bauermeister and the entire team were professional, compassionate, and incredibly attentive. Dr. Bauermeister took the time to explain the procedure thoroughly, set realistic expectations, and answer all of my questions with patience and clarity. I felt completely at ease knowing I was in such capable hands. The results exceeded my expectations—my tummy looks amazing, and I finally feel confident in my body again. The recovery process was smoother than I anticipated, and Dr. Bauermeister promptly addressed any concerns I had along the way. If you're considering an abdominoplasty or any cosmetic procedure, I highly recommend Dr. Bauermeister. His skill, attention to detail, and genuine care for his patients truly set him apart.
Dr. Bauermeister is fantastic! I lost 100 pounds and had loose skin. I had tried to meet with multiple plastic surgeons but I felt like a number. None cared to meet me before or take time to listen to my concerns. They all wanted money first to reserve. Dr. Bauermeister took time to meet with me. He took time to exam the area and go over his recommendations and the procedure in detail. He made sure I didn't feel rushed and took time and great care to answer all my questions. I left his office confident in my choice. His coordinator then made sure I was set with a date that fit my schedule. She was not pushy at all and didn't get annoyed with any questions or changes. She made sure to explain the financial aspect and made it super easy. Surgery day: the anesthesiologist and nurses all were very sweet and caring. Dr. Bauermeister came in before to mark me for surgery and made sure to re-explain the surgery and make sure I was comfortable and knowledgeable about the surgery. Healing was a breeze! The stitching he did was ???? amazing. A thing of absolute beauty. Post op, he made sure that recovery was going well and I was able to get a hold of him with any issues right away! I was never left feeling like I was on my own. Any questions or issues, he made sure I was taken care of. The results at 3 months... I'm so happy... I don't have words. I look at myself in the mirror and my body finally feels like my own again. I never thought I'd feel confident. And that's that I'm not even fully healed yet! I can't wait to see myself at 1 year. Thank you Dr. Bauermeister and team. You gave me my confidence back
I met with a few other doctors before deciding to do my implants replacement along with a breast lift with Dr. Bauermeister. My decision was made on the fact that during the first meeting he took the time to go over my concerns and expectations, giving informed advice but never rushing. I felt safe to continue on my journey with him and I don’t regret it. Post op he has been easy to reach, happy to give advice and continuing to ensure that I feel the most comfortable and happy with the results.
After embarking on my health journey and losing 150 lbs, I was left with a body that showed its signs of waging this war and winning albeit full of weariness. Plastic surgery was never something I entertained mainly because of affordability and most importantly not knowing of a doctor I can place my trust and faith in. I had reached a point of true discomfort and my husband and I decided to look into it. The hours of research were long and tiresome, but in the end I came up with 4 doctors knowing there was really only one I wanted. Dr Bauermeister stood out to me for many reasons. His before and afters were works of art not one of them left me disappointed , but instead more impressed. His patients spoke so highly of him and I knew this would be my doctor. I intentionally left him as my last consult never telling my husband that he was the one I wanted. Out of all 4 he was the only one that did not want to do both my breast reduction and tummy tuck together. He felt it was too risky and he wanted to take his time to give me the best outcome and result . My husband left that consult and all he said was that is our doctor we will do what we must to afford him. I am 4 weeks post from my tummy tuck and I can’t believe my results. His attention to detail is astounding his patience is unwavering and god knows I tested that and his critical eye is like no other. I was astounded that I never had much discomfort or took any pain meds for an extended tummy tuck with a mom pubis lift which that in itself speaks volumes of the type of skill this surgeon has. My recovery didn’t go by the numbers it was just my body’s response, but not once did I worry. From day one I never doubted his skill and knowledge and I am so happy I did. He took such good care and investment in my recovery seeing me more often to make sure all was coming along. I couldn’t be luckier. I followed his directions to a T and today I see the progress and couldn’t be happier. I get emotional of how grateful and blessed I was to find such a skilled surgeon. Today I told him he changed my life and I will forever be grateful. I hope sharing my experience hopefully finds someone looking for their surgeon like I once was and perhaps my words resonate with you hit home and somehow puts you at ease that you have found him. I see him again in March for part 2 my breast reduction and I feel a sense of calmness I have never felt. I know that not only I am in good hands but he truly wants to give you the best result possible.
From my initial breast augmentation consultation with Dr. Bauermeister, I felt super comfortable and confident. He spent a lot of time explaining the procedure, listening to what I wanted, and answering all my questions. I wanted a very natural, low-key look that fits my slim frame. He made suggestions to achieve what I wanted and explained the reason for each suggestion. I didn’t even bother with other consultations after my meeting with him. His staff were all kind and knowledgeable and made the process and surgery day seamless. I’m now 6-month post-op and the healing process has been easy, they look super natural, and I got exactly what I wanted and what we discussed. I can’t recommend Dr. B enough!!
Dr. Bauermeister is a true professional! My experience with them was absolutely exceptional from start to finish. His attention to detail was impeccable, and I am thoroughly pleased with the outcome. Highly recommend Dr. Bauermeister!
12/20/24. Nothing but great things to say about Dr. Bauermeister. His bedside manner was phenomenal. He has a gentle touch with my Botox treatment. Would definitely recommend to anyone looks amazing, caring and experienced plastic surgeon.
Dr. Bauermeister is truly exceptional! From my initial consultation to the final results, he demonstrated remarkable skill, professionalism, and care.

His Team is amazing
I was always hesitant to have any plastic surgery, but when I turned 70, I decided it was time to take action. My breasts had seen too many years and were causing me back pain, and it was just generally uncomfortable to lug them around. I chose Dr. B. because whenever someone talked about him, they said he was a "perfectionist" -- and that's the quality I wanted in a doctor. Now I'm one month out of surgery and I have to say, the results are spectacular. Who knew someone could take 70-year-old breasts and make them look young again? Not only that, but Dr. B. is sensitive, caring, and a great human being. If you're looking for a surgeon you can trust to transform your body into something you'd be proud of, Dr. B. is your person.
I cannot thank Dr. Bauermeister enough for the incredible work he did with my breast implant revision and lift. From the moment I met him, I felt welcomed, heard, and understood. This procedure was something I had been thinking about for several years, but was nervous and unsure about making the right decision…especially at my age of 53 years. Dr. Bauermeister immediately put me at ease. He took time to listen to my concerns, answer all of my questions, and really understand what I was hoping to achieve. What stood out the most was how personal and attentive Dr. Bauermeister was. He genuinely cared about helping me feel my best. We talked through the options and ensured I felt comfortable with every step. The surgery went smoothly and recovery was extremely successful. When I saw the results, I was completely blown away. My body was finally proportioned and age appropriate. I feel so much more confident in my body and the way I see myself. The physical transformation has been wonderful but the emotional impact has been surprising. I feel empowered, happy, and so much more comfortable in my own skin! If you are considering this, or any similar, procedure, I cannot recommend Dr. Bauermeister enough. His expertise, experience, kindness, and attention to detail has made all the difference and I am simply beyond grateful for everything he has done for me.
Hi, thanks for your question and photo. Based off the photo alone an upper and lower blepharoplasty seems to be a potential option for you to correct the concerns you noted on above. Since I don't know your medical and surgical history, I'm unsure why other surgeons have recommended against eyelid surgery. Sometimes prior eye surgery or a particular underlying medical condition may increase your risks for poor wound healing or surgical complications, and this may be the reason they recommended against surgery. Without this additional information or an exam its difficult to provide you with a better answer.
Hello, thanks for your question and photos. Based off your photos you are candidate for an upper blepharoplasty and lower blepharoplasty. Since the lower eyelids only appear full (from herniated periorbital fat pads) and no excess skin is evident then a transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty could be performed to avoid any visible scars. The upper blepharoplasty incision/scar is well hidden within the upper eyelid creases. These procedures provide long lasting results and should correct the concerns your noted above.
Hello. Based on your description and photo it appears that you most likely had a transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty with no skin removal. A "skin pinch" lower blepharoplasty with skin removal alone is a much shorter surgery than a traditional lower blepharoplasty and involves an incision immediately beneath the lower eyelash line to remove excess skin. It is typically recommended to relax and avoid strenuous activities for the first 48 hrs after surgery. Periodic application of cold packs help reduce swelling. It is recommended to sleep in an upright supine position with a few pillows behind your head. Avoid pain medications such as Advil, Aleve, Aspirin to decrease bleed risk. Swelling and bruising around the eyes are expected and will resolve over the following weeks. Depending on the surgeon, either an absorbable suture or permanent suture will be used for incision closure. If a permanent one is used, it is often removed ~7 days after surgery. Typically you can resume relatively normal activity ~3-4 weeks after surgery. Some more general risks include infection, bleeding, injury to adjacent anatomic structures, contour irregularities, eyelid shape changes, scar prominence, ectropion, as well as others.
Hello, thank you for your question and supporting photo. Based off the photo, you would qualify for an upper blepharoplasty to correct the excess upper eyelid skin. Additional photos and better yet an in person exam would be needed to determine the extent of of your under eye bags that you have commented on. If found to be more significant than what is pictured here, then a lower blepharoplasty could be performed to correct this. In your situation, no excess skin is shown, so the incision could be hidden along the underside of the lower eyelid (transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty) and the scar would not be visible.
Hi, thank you for you question. Based on your photos it does appear you have some excess upper eyelid skin. The best option to correct this is surgical with the removal of this excess skin (upper blepharoplasty). The incision and resulting scar is typically well hidden within the upper eyelid crease and is not noticeable unless your eyes are close. Botox could be used alternatively to relax muscles along the brow and raise the lateral (outside) edge of the brow to lift the eyebrows, unfortunately this oftentimes will only provide modest improvement and may give you an exaggerated unnatural appearing brow shape. Hope this information if helpful. Seeing a plastic surgeon for a complete exam and review of options is recommended.
