Fredric M. Barr, MD

Hello! I am now 9 weeks out from my "mini lower lift." Dr. Frederic Barr used his substantial expertise and experience to effect for me a natural, discreet, effective lower "mini" face lift, with no general anesthesia necessary, and nearly invisible scarring (and only getting better). This procedure also addressed some laxity on my neck which had come as a result of badly done lipo many years ago (mower marks which eventually contributed to loose skin). I was pleased because I got the facial "lifting" I desired, and with some weight loss, I also gained more facial definition. Happy to have good results on my neck but without also undergoing a full necklift, as I could wait another few years for a full neck lift (platysmal bands). This "mini procedure" could well address my needs until then. Before choosing Dr. Barr I had only watched videos of his work and had not seen his before/after photos. I had judged that Dr. Barr would be a suitable choice based solely on the discreet, natural results that I saw on videos of him working with his patients (it's hard to argue with video vs. easily-photoshopped online "after" photos). Upon meeting him, and experiencing his sincerity, the pride in his craft combined with lack of ego (I've never seen him not busily doing surgeries; his office is modest by comparison to most) and the respectful way he treats his staff, I booked in. I was pleased with the "normal" fee structure which was very fair for the quality of work and care I received. Dr. Barr as a person also has a good heart; you will see that right away when you meet him and work with him.

wonderful I trust Dr Barr Candy and his staff completely. Very caring. He removed two puppy dog sized bags under my arms in back hanging over my bra strap. He did a great job just as I wanted with a price I could afford. He was willing to work with me so I could get exactly what I wanted and needed. The whole office is beyond belief great

Exceeded my expectations. From the very first phone call to the very last contact i felt like i was taken care of and felt that Dr Barr and his staff had my best interest at heart. I would recommend Dr Barr.

thank you.

I am here to give an honest, straight up true review. I am 53 y/o smoker, I fish, therefore I am in the sun a lot, I've had every procedure done that you can think of. I reached a point where I felt spending money on Restalyne, Botox, Juvederm, was costly and the results did not last. My face was becoming "lumpy from fillers along with acne scars I've hated my whole life. I had a few consultations from recommendations from friends etc. Some Doctors wanted to do silicone drops injections to full blown out face/neck lift. I didn't feel I needed all that work at 53. I came across Dr. Barr on this site, went for my free consultation. We discussed different options. When he suggested a mini face lift, I asked if it would get rid of my scars. His response was "No" in my head I was disappointed, but he told me the lift would improve my jowls and make a big improvement. After going home and reviewing all my consultations, Dr. Barr's solution seemed the most logical. Now for the hard part for me. Because he is very thorough there were a lot of rules, quit smoking was the hardest ( 2 weeks prior) I vaped , A list of things you cant take including alcohol! giving up my vices were definitely the hardest part of the process. Day of surgery, went into the office like any other appointment. sat in the office chair, and Dr. Barr started injecting anesthesia, just like that!. Not going to lie. I panicked for a second. He asked me if I wanted to reschedule, His nurse Candy calmed me down and within 5 mins I was fine. We talked through the whole procedure. They both were so wonderful for awhile I forgot I was having surgery! Trust me not having to go under is the best way to go and so safe. So that was done, I go home, and again, not going to lie. it was uncomfortable for the first 2 days. Dr. Barr gave me Tramadol which for my system is like a baby aspirin, Whoever said she went out for dinner the next night I find incredible. 3rd day, I was good, shocked ! 8 weeks later (which has flown by) scars are hardly noticeable with my very short hair. I will never forget the moment I put on my makeup a month later , stepped back, and literally said "Wow" I look good! I have attached before and after photos, please note the before photos I had my makeup on to the max. The after photos were taken at like 8:30 am without a stitch of makeup. I don't even think I washed my face! After a couple of weeks I went out, got a great job, I feel my scars have improved. Most people can't figure out what is different about me, I asked my husband who said 'It's subtle, and has taken years off you.. Okay, my husband never says things like that so I am beyond any doubt so happy to find Dr. Barr, his amazingly, kind staff, and I am more than happy to tell you the honest truth if you have any questions, Please be careful, be realistic with your results and please consult with more than one doctor, I will continue to see Dr. Barr and highly recommend him! Thank you for reading this long review. The before photos with makeup are on the left and the after on the right side by side

As soon as I have my husband take the photos I will post, but they are very slight, and I do no photoshopping on any of my pictures.. :)

The experience of having a mini face lift was unbelievable. This is my second one and I cannot believe how easy this was. My second day I was up and around, no bandages, no pain just a little swelling. I would highly recommend Dr. Barr and his staff. The outcome of the procedure is fantastic. My friends say I look 10 years younger.

I must compliment Dr. barr And all of his staff for alleviating all of my fears and answering all my questions. I place the utmost trust in everyone there and would highly recommend them. In fact I am so pleased with my result that I plan on going back for my next procedure. I went under local anesthetic, very little bruising-- went back to work in one week with still some swelling. 2 weeks later most of swelling gone. Dr. barr gives you a very natural look which is exactly what I wanted!

I have had two surgical procedures done by Dr. Barr already and I am ecstatic! First I had his mini-face lift with wonderful results. He performs these right in his office with his fabulous surgical nurse, Candy. They make such an awesome team! Since the procedure is done with only local anethesia, you get to converse with them both and they really get to know you. Every time I'm at his office, I feel like I'm his most special patient! Fred and Candy both have such a wonderful gift of making everyone feel special. I trust him so much that I had a breast augmentation with him without having any other consults, which is a big deal for me because I tend to research everything! I'm 61 years old and have always been a AA cup but decided that I really wanted big breasts! I am less than two weeks out and I'm so excited with my results that I just had to write this review! Dr. Barr will listen to everything you say and give you the best results possible without ever compromising your health and saftey in any way. Thank you Dr. Barr and Candy Cane!

I am a 78 year old women and never thought of plasticsurgery but, I wanted to look as good as I felt. DR Fredric Barr's mini facelift without downtime did the trick! I have a new look and a new lease on life!!!!! People think I'm in my 60s! The staff was very detailed and helpful! I highly recommend this procedure!

Terrible experience. Too large of breast implants with complications 450 moderate silicone. Refused to remove them. Had them redone by another doctor a year later. One of my implants was flipped inside the pocket and the other never dropped. Maintained a rectangular shape the whole time I had them. Expensive revision with another doctor to help close the pockets and replace with a smaller 375 mod+ implant.

I have breast implants that are 39 years old. Left side is ruptured from mammogram 1991. I have lumps under my armpit. My chest hurts so bad and I need these out. I hurt so bad that I can barely get out of bed in AM. I feel the silicone is traveling in my body. I have unexplained rashes, arthritis, sore muscles and joints, breathing problems with implant weight, lung problems.
