Carlos Medina, MD

Wanted to do this for a long time. I finally decided to it and have no regrets. Was able to get insurance approval for the lift and had to pay only for the implant exchange. Had a great surgeon. He is very calm, compassionate and professional. The recovery was easier than expected. Took a week off from work just in case but only felt pain for the first two days. Went back to the gym after 8 weeks and again it was better than expected. Started slow with upper body exercises just in case but felt no pain at all. I can still see my scars but I'm using scarguard and hopefully they will fade more.

Still working on my scars.

My experience was amazing. From the moment i went to see him for my consultation to my post op check up. Dr Medina is very detailed and honest and gives his 100 percent to make sure you feel confident to have your procedure. He often checked up on me and everything went exactly as he mentioned. Highly recommend him. Thank you for making me feel like a new person and bringing me so much happiness.

In March of 2014 I came to meet Dr. Carlos Medina at Kendall Regional Hospital. I came to see him for a consultation after a botched needle biopsy ( to determine if I had breast cancer) left me with a punctured implant. Needless to say I was devastated and very anxious & nervous about going through another breast procedure. Fortunately for me Dr. Medina was amazing! He knew exactly what to say to make feel at ease, comfortable and confident that he was the right doctor for me. He had to remove my old implants and replace them. The surgery was a great success and my breasts looked even better than they had after my first augmentation. It's been 2 years since my surgery and all is perfect. I highly recommend Dr. Medina to any woman looking for a kind, compassionate & skilled surgeon who really cares about his patients!

I was referred to Dr. Medina from my Pain Dr. I had a pannectomy and breast augmentation. I wanted to do both at the same time, and was told by two other plastic surgeons they could be done as an outpatient. Dr. Medina advised not to do them at the same time due to my past medical history with Meningitis, the pannectomy was done as an inpatient and I was monitored very closely, we waited for 6 months before the breast augmentation to make sure there weren't any complications. Otherwise, if there were any complications and we had done both procedures, I could have lost the implants. I am very pleased with my results. Dr. Medina is a very intelligent and caring surgeon.

I had a wonderful experience with Dr.Medina. I had complications from a previous tummy tuck and he repaired the problem. I love the result. He was ALWAYS available to answer questions. I have a very flat tummy now. I love the result. I use every opportunity to show off my tummy. Thanks to Dr. Medina. Because of his excellent work and result, I entrusted him to treat keloids on my face. The treatments were successful. The keloids are gone and my self confidence is through the roof. I love the result. I highly recommend Dr. Medina for reconstructive surgery. I will definitely recommend him.

At first I really liked the Dr. Medina. Surgery went well despite the fact my personal surgical consultant did not do anything she promised. Never saw a doctor after procedure. As of today, in lots of pain, seroma has developed. Office won't get me in to see dr, even though I ended up at ER. Stay away.

I am updating my review. The office staff was the problem. They would not let me see my Dr. He had no clue as to what was going on. I saw him today and he drained my belly, (something that can happen after tt). I am going to have a beautiful belly, thanks to Dr Medina. Office staff Imagenes Plactic Surgery is a major problem. They actually hung up the phone on me. I guess they are control freaks. Anyway, I am very happy and give my Dr. 5 stars:)

Let me start by saying, god knows why he lets things happen, luckily for me my problem has been solved, and no not by Dr. Medina whom i have to thank for giving me the worse experience of my life after practicing a breast lift with augmentation on me back in Feb 2017 in which had horrible results causing me to go into a deep depression!

Dr. Medina performed a blepharoplasty on Nov,2016 as of today I have been trying to schedule a follow up because the surgery was a complete disaster... he removed more skin then what was needed and now im left with the lower lid open and exposed to infection. He is a ghost... I have tried to schedule an appointment with him and the staff always cancels the appointment and gives me another one... but Im never able to see him. Now he moved to another location which is his private office. Dont trust this Doctor... find another doctor to spend your money, time, and health or you will regret it.

DO NOT USE THIS DOCTOR HE IS ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE!!! HE DOES NOT CARE ABOUT HIS PATIENTS!!!! IRRESPONSIBLE!!!! Dr. Medina was working for Jardons Cosmetic Surgery (WHICH IS A TERRIBLE AND IRRESPONSIBLE COMPANY!!! )when he operated on me. I am diabetic and he knew this and still didn't put care in to my surgery... He completely BOTCHED my surgery!!! I called the office to explain that after the healing period when the swelling went down, you could see what he had done incorrectly and they basically cleaned their hands by saying he no longer worked for them. His work ethic is absolutely terrible. He refused to reoperate or to correct what he had done to me. I physically showed up to his actual office and he rejected seeing me!!! He asked that security escort me out of his office for saying he had botched my surgery!!! He had originally told me that if anything went wrong he could fix it at Kendall regional hospital but that was a complete lie!!! I was told by Jardons that if I wanted to have the surgery corrected I would have to pay a brand new procedure when he messed up my surgery!!! Now I have a bad surgery and no solution!!!

Lies then more lies unorganized it's obvious Comestics Seduction is more about making money than providing quality care. Very evasive no one tells the truth. From the beginning I was pressed to apply for credit wasn't informed that meant I would automatically be charged which I was and these charges were done before I signed anything I asked multiple times for cancellations and was never given that. I was told another dr would be my provider which was a lie. I was late being picked up from the airport, dr office and over 24 hrs for pain medication. Worst experience I have ever had
