I cannot thank Dr. Karanetz and Dr. Yoel Rojas enough for the incredible care and results I received. After a traumatic, botched breast surgery experience, I was devastated. From the moment I met this dream team, I felt safe, heard, and truly cared for. Dr. Karanetz literally fixed what I thought was unfixable. She restored not just my breasts, but my confidence and my peace of mind. Her skill, precision, and eye for detail are unmatched. I love my results natural, beautiful, and exactly what I hoped for. Her entire team was so supportive, professional, and kind from start to finish. I always felt like a priority and never rushed. I’m beyond happy that I trusted her with my revision. Choosing her and Dr. Rojas was hands down the best decision I’ve made. If you’re searching for true artists in plastic surgery who care deeply about their patients, look no further. I love her, I love her team!!! The best !!! Thank you so much.
Undergoing abdominoplasty was a significant decision for me, after having both of my kids I was left with abdominal muscle separation. I couldn't be happier with the outcome after surgery. From the initial consultation to the post-operative care, the entire team demonstrated professionalism, compassion, and expertise. Dr. Karanetz took the time to explain the procedure thoroughly, addressing all my concerns and setting realistic expectations. The surgery itself went smoothly, and the recovery process was well-managed, with the medical staff providing continuous support and guidance. Now, several weeks post-surgery, I feel more confident and comfortable in my body. The results have exceeded my expectations, and I am grateful for the exceptional care I received. I highly recommend this practice to anyone considering abdominoplasty.
I had chin and neck liposuction performed by Dr. Irena, and I'm very happy with the results so far, even though I'm still in recovery. With the advice of Dr.Irena we added Rejuvion J plasma for better results. The whole process took one hour top. From arriving to leaving the office Dr. Irena has been soooo sooo attentive and supportive throughout the post-op process, which made a big difference in my experience. Overall, I feel confident in the care I received and would recommend them to others considering this procedure.
I have no words to describe how grateful my heart feels to have met Doctor Karanetz. She is absolutely amazing !! Her staff as well. I had surgery less than a month ago and it has been such a quick and easy process. All the staff members make sure I am doing okay, checking up on me daily the first week of surgery. And Doctor Karanetz did an AMAZING job with my new boobies. I cannot thank her enough. I am so happy with my results. Thank you EVOLVE Family
My experience with Dr Karanetz was amazing from day one. She was very patient and listened to my concerns. Was very open and honest with me as well which is something I value. Couldn’t recommend her enough!
I had a chin lipo procedure with Dr. Karanetz and had an incredible experience from start to finish. Dr. Karanetz was not only kind and professional, but went above and beyond to make sure I felt completely comfortable every step of the way. What stood out the most was how much time she spent preparing me before the procedure. We had several calls ahead of time where she patiently answered all my questions and made sure I knew exactly what to expect. On the day of the procedure, she walked me through everything again in detail. I was awake for it, but I felt completely calm and at ease the entire time. The follow-up care was just as thoughtful—she checked in frequently to make sure everything was healing properly. I had minimal downtime and very little pain, and my recovery went exactly as expected. I wish I had it done even sooner! I couldn’t be happier with the results and the experience. Highly, highly recommend Dr. Karanetz if you're considering chin lipo or any similar procedure!
I found Dr. Karanetz through RealSelf and was immediately impressed by her work—it looked so natural and beautiful, exactly what I was hoping for. From the very beginning, Dr. Karanetz and her team were incredibly kind, supportive, and made the entire process feel easy. I truly felt like I was in the best hands the whole way through, and I'm so happy with my results. She's not only talented but also warm and caring. Choosing her was the best decision I could have made, and I hope this helps someone else feel confident in choosing her too—I was once in your shoes!
I had a breast reduction with Dr.Karantez 8 weeks ago and she is the best!! She answers all your questions with a bright, friendly smile and delivers amazing results. Iam very happy with my results so far and would definitely recommend her as a plastic surgeon and the staff at Evolve Plastic surgery are also great.: )
I had an amazing experience with Dr Karanetz!! I knew for a long time I wanted her to be my surgeon and am so happy I chose her. After a significant amount of weight loss I was dealing with a lot of excess skin in my abdomen and my breasts. She performed a breast lift with implants and tummy tuck. I am so happy with the results. I feel more confident!!! She is not only an excellent surgeon but also an amazing person. Such an enthusiastic and wonderful personality. I’m so happy I chose her and Dr Rojas. They are a great team that deliver great results.
Dr. Karanetz has excellent bedside manner and is truly a wonderful Plastic Surgeon. I have been her patient for two years now and I am so happy with my results. Her team is great as well. Highly recommend Dr. Karanetz for all your needs!
Hello, Thank you for the question. It appears that the Left breast is smaller when compared to the Right breast. In order to make the breasts more symmetric and fuller, you may benefit from breast augmentation procedure on both sides. I would place a larger implant (above the muscle) on the Left side, and a smaller implant on the Right side to correct your asymmetry. Implant size discussion and implant selection is one of the most important steps during your consultation with plastic surgeon. The decision-making process depends on patient’s desires, as well as breast and soft tissue dimensions. I suggest that you seek an in person consultation with a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon specializing in Breast Surgery in order to discuss your goals and concerns for the best cosmetic results. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. Best wishes and good luck.

Hello and thank you for your question. Labiaplasty procedure is a very intimate surgery and it is important to feel comfortable with your surgeon and to have realistic expectations based on your anatomy and specific concern. It is also considered to be a safe procedure if performed by a surgeon specializing in Labiaplasty procedures. Any surgery involves scarring, however, with properly selected labiaplasty techniques, the scarring can be minimized. Some possible complications from labiaplasty surgery can include bleeding, infection, scarring, and changes in sensation, but the risk of those is typically low. I suggest that you seek an in person consultation with a Board-Certified plastic surgeon specializing in Labiaplasty to further discuss your options, specific techniques, concerns and expectations. I hope this helps. Best regards, Dr. Karanetz Dr. Irena Karanetz Fellowship-Trained Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Queens, New York (516) 981 3063
Hello, Thank you for the question. I'm sorry to hear that you are not fully happy with your labiaplasty results. It may be possible that you need additional labia minora (inner lips) tissues removed, so that they do not hang outside of labia major and cause discomfort and irritation. I would also wait at least a full year from your original surgery prior to undergoing revision surgery because the wound healing takes up to 1 year to be completed. I would definitely discuss your questions and concerns with your Plastic Surgeon or a board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in Labiaplasty procedures. I hope this helps.

Hello, Thank you for the question. Implant size discussion and implant selection is one of the most important steps during your breast augmentation consultation with plastic surgeon. The decision-making process depends on patient’s desires, as well as breast and soft tissue dimensions. In some patients, different size implants are needed to achieve symmetry, especially if patient has different size breasts to start with. It is possible to achieve a full C/D result from A cup, especially if implants are placed above the muscle. The implant can take up to 1 year to settle info their final place and to have more droopy appearance. I would encourage you to seek a consultation with a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon to further discuss your options, specific techniques, concerns and expectations. I hope this helps.

Hello, Thank you for the question. In my practice, I see very low pecentage of patients with BII symptoms following breast implant surgery, I would say less than 5%. The term BII is used to describe a variety of systemic symptoms which may be reported by some women following reconstruction or augmentation with breast implants. These symptoms may include fatigue, problems with memory or concentration (“brain fog”), joint and muscle pain, hair loss, weight changes and anxiety/depression. Although some women report improvement or resolution of symptoms following removal of the implants, the cause of the symptoms and the degree to which they may be related to the implants are unclear at the current time. Research continues to be performed to better understand any potential association with breast implants. I hope this helps.
