Danielle DeLuca-Pytell, MD

I had a very rare allergic reaction to botox and was told that I could never have it again. Dr Pytell did some research and offered me allergy testing for Xeomin which is a product similar to botox which has less of a risk of allergic reaction. She went out of her way to do this for me. I did not react to the Xeomin and now I am able to have my beloved neurotoxin treatments again! I am so thankful to Dr. Pytell. She really is an amazing doctor and can really claim that she is "your girlfriend the plastic surgeon."

I am currently in day 5 of my recovery from a mommy makeover. I have spent 4 years talking myself in and out of having this procedure done. After meeting Dr Deluca I was confident that I had found the right Board certified plastic surgeon to perform my surgery. She made me feel very comfortable and at ease. I have not been able to see my true results yet because of the intense swelling but I am going to update with pictures overtime to show my results.

I still feel a lot of swelling and can’t completely stand up straight. Trying to follow the drs orders and take it easy but I’m anxious to see my full results and get back to my life. I feel like I’m gaining weight just laying around doing nothing.

Swelling going down and starting to get excited about my results. I also received a succulent from Dr. Pytells office. I’ve had such a pleasant experience with Dr. Pytell.

Starting to feel pretty good, still weak and tired but I’m no longer taking pain meds during the day. I just take the muscle relaxer at night before bed. Still a lot of swelling but I am really loving my results!

I am seeing great results now, it’s been about 3 1/2 months and I’m very happy with how I’ve healed and how the procedure went, Dr Deluca has been amazing throughout the entire process!

To start....
34 years old, mother of 1, 5’4 160’lbs. I had breast implants placed when I was 19, and over the years/childbearing/weight gain, my breasts went up to an uncomfortable 36E. I HATED my breasts. Every day when I’d have to dress, every time my shoulders and neck ached, every time I couldn’t exercise comfortably - it made me want to get a reduction.

I’ve been wanting my implants out for close to 10 years, just never had the time and money. I finally decided to just do it because I knew it would improve my quality of life - and I was 100% right. I cannot express how relieved I am to be able to wear a shirt and not feel like my boobs are entering a room before I do. I can breathe. I know once I heal, exercise will be much easier.

My surgeon, Dr. Deluca-Pytell was excellent. I can’t say enough good about her or her office. I was originally supposed to have the procedure (implant removal & reduction) done a year ago, but I found out I was pregnant a week before surgery. She and her office were so helpful and accommodating, and when I was ready to have it done finally they picked right back up. I’m a nurse and around physicians all the time, and she far and away has the best bedside manner I’ve ever experienced. She made me feel like I was talking to a friend and the scary, clinical situation was made so much more calm. If you’re looking for a surgeon in the metro Detroit area, I’d highly, highly recommend her.

I’m only 4 days post-op but the incisions look great. I’m bruised and sore, but it was way less painful than I anticipated. If you’re considering if this will make you feel better and improve your life, I can attest to the fact that it will.

I had a mommy makeover with Dr. DeLuca-Pytell and I just have to say she is outstanding! I was so nervous when I went to my first consultation but Dr. DeLuca- Pytell and the staff made me feel at ease. She is knowledgeable, professional, but most important awesome bedside manner. She gave me back my confidence after having 3 kids and my results turned out better than I imagined. I would not go to any other surgeon.

Dr. DeLuca Pytell is a warm, kind, patient, highly skilled & talented surgeon who carefully listens, responsibly offers, and ecucates her patients about the best, most advanced, safest procedures available for each personal situation. I can’t say enough about my great experiences and highly recommend Dr. DeLuca Pytell.

I researched plastic surgeons in the metro-Detroit area in preparation for having a breast reduction. I selected Dr. DeLuca-Pytell after reviewing online evaluations, talking to colleagues, and reviewing her educational preparation. When I met her, she immediately put me at ease, provided excellent descriptions of the procedure, risks, potential benefits, and expected outcomes. My pre-op visit and my interactions with her the day of surgery were unparalleled. Dr. DeLuca-Pytell ensured my privacy, gave excellent post-op care instructions, and advised me to call any time of day or night with questions. I have had two post-op visits so far and she spends adequate time and, addresses all questions. I could not be more pleased with the actual outcomes of this surgery or with this physician and her excellent interpersonal as well as surgical skills! Bravo!

Dr DeLuca Pytell was wonderfully calm, professional and collected at my consultation with her. She very kindly sensed some anxiety I was having about one of the procedures, and suggested I think it over before following through. I could have easily been pressured into something I wasn't 100% about. For the procedure I did have done, she did a far better job than a prior provider. I will absolutely return to Dr DeLuca for future needs, and cannot recommend her more.

I was worried about having my first surgery, but it couldn't have been easier. Unasource was a great surgery center and did everything to insure my comfort. Dr. Deluca-Pytell was patient and understanding of my needs. I highly recommend her could not be happier.

After having a c-section 10 years ago,
I have never been able to get my pre-baby body back. The skin on my abdomen had lost all elasticity and no matter how much I exercised or dieted, it just looked horrible. After consulting with a few surgeons, I came to terms that a tummy tuck was my last resort.

Five weeks post op and slowly starting to feel more normal. The incision is healing nicely and the swelling is starting to go down. I've been measuring my waist line and in the last two weeks alone, it has gone down 2". My belly button still has swelling but I have been massaging it, as the surgeon advised and it's starting to suck in and become a deeper "innie." I'm excited to see what's to come.

Updated on 2 Jun 2017:
So, I'm 9 weeks post op and I am so entirely happy with the choice I have made. I started using Silagen scar therapy strips around 6 weeks post op, so I will assess the progress of lightening the scar over time. My tummy is super flat, even with some swelling still noted. I will continue to wear compression garment until I feel comfortable not wearing it anymore. ????

I am a patient of Dr. Deluca-Pytell and I am thrilled and honored to write this review. I am a mother of three boys- 22 year old and 20-year-old twins. I am petite in stature and overall size. I struggled over the past 20 years to have confidence because my stomach looked like a 90-year-old woman from stretching out during my twin pregnancy and my breasts were flat and saggy. Finally, I got up the courage to research Plastic Surgeons, abdominalplasty and breast augmentation. After meeting with Dr. Deluca-Pytell I instantly felt at ease due to her ability to listen, understand and guide me through the process while defining realistic expectations and outcomes to achieve the look I was after. I hold her honesty and straight forward nature in high regard and her beside manner and welcoming hugs made me feel like I was a friend, not just a patient. During my first check up following surgery I was unwrapped, and I asked if I could look in the mirror. Dr. Deluca Pytell was surprised because most patients do that in the privacy of their own homes and when I saw my breasts and stomach, which now look like a twenty something, I began to cry with happiness and so did she. I remember her stating "I never get to see the first impression of the results." I truly understood in that moment how amazing Dr. Deluca-Pytell was and how important her talents are to those looking for confidence or due to medical necessity. My experience was outstanding from start to finish. Dr. Deluca-Pytell and her staff are outstanding, always available with the patient's best interest in mind. Thank you Dr. Deluca-Pytell and staff!
