I'm just over two weeks post-op from a Platysmaplasty by Dr. Jerkins. I chose him after consulting with two other surgeons. My experience with Dr. Jerkins, and his nurse, Sara, has been phenomenal! Appointment times are on-schedule, and Dr. Jerkins explains (in simple terms!) what his plan would be, to achieve the goal. When I couldn't visualize the procedure, he drew a picture for me that made it perfectly clear. He has a fun, upbeat personality, answers any questions, and I am healing exactly as predicted. He doesn't make false promises, and reminds patients that each recovery/result will be individual. I highly recommend Dr. David Jerkins for any plastic or reconstructive surgery! FYI: he has an Engineering degree, and is especially talented at complex cases, ie; Rhinoplasty, Breast Reconstruction.

Here are pics of my neck, before, and six weeks post-op. Dr. Jerkins did a beautiful job, and while I do have some healing left in the months ahead (chin profile pic), the swelling is gone, and so are the platysmal bands that used to be so prominent! What I appreciate so much about Dr. Jerkins is his suggestion to err on the conservative side, so the results are natural rather than obvious. I have seen the results of a couple of other local doctors who've been around longer, and cannot stress enough how talented Dr. Jerkins is, and how fortunate we all are to have him in our community. Go for a consult! You will not regret it.
