Ten Years of Research Paid Off! - Pittsburgh, PA
When I was growing up, my entire family had rather large breasts. However, I was not blessed with those genes. So I spent ten years researching how to look like I belonged to my family. I consulted doctor after doctor, and finally came across Dr. Barber. The staff was really friendly and answered all of my questions. Dr. Barber was great and provided a ton of information. Six months after my surgery, I can't get enough of my boobs! They are amazing!! I feel great, like

Pittsburgh-breast Implants, Breast Lift, Tummy Tuck for This Mommy! - Pittsburgh, PA
My motivation was to help move my body forward after having children. I am pretty good at eating well and working out. As much as I can be for a mom that works outside of the home. I was always fairly confident, but my beautiful children sort of wrecked me. Everything is about my kids....I do everything for them. Can I tell you how guilty I FELT about doing this? Now I don't. I feel like a different person...in some way. I just hold myself differently. I am comfortable

35 Year Old Mother of 3. Everything Needs Help! Starting with the Girls. Pittsburgh, PA
I always wanted breasts that match my body size. Nothing too crazy big. Just be able to fill out a top nicely. After kids, they shrank even more. Didn't think it was possible BUT THEY DID! Just had my final follow-up with Dr. Barber. I can't believe it has been 6 months, and they are mine. They look and feel like me. It's just me....and I feel awesome. I have nothing but praise for Dr. Barber. At every step, he was there. At every step, the girls in the office were

Breasts Augmentation Balanced Physique - Sewickley PA
I am completely satisfied with my decision to get breast implants, and I contribute this to the doctor I chose; his opinion, experience and work were each a factor in my end result. He was completely informative, patient, responsive and genuinely kind. His staff were the same. I feel I have a natural appearance after a pleasant experience.
I really like doctor Barber. During my initial consultation I met with him(not his nurses) which I really admired. He was extremely down to earth and made me feel really comfortable. His nurses were great and made me feel at ease and answered all of questions for me as well. They were extremely helpful when it came to scheduling because I had some issues with that. I am very nervous yet excited I have wanted to get breast implants for about 11 years now. I have 3 children and

Co2 Laser for Raised Scarring on Chin - Sewickley, PA
I've had raised scarring on my chin for the last 2 years and wanted to have the area smoothed out. I had the co2 (100% ablative) laser done twice just on the raised scars. I would not recommend this procedure because the laser only goes so many microns deep. Dermabrasion would the be the way to go because it can be more customized and can go deeper to really flatten those raised scars.

Worst Decision Ever - Wexford, PA
I was referred to Barber through a mutual friend . Our first consultation was wonderful. He is very charming and convincing (like a used car salesman. After a couple of months of debating, I scheduled my apt. I asked all the usual questions. I repeatedly asked with my type of body, age , height, and weight you there be any complications. He gave me the normal speech that with every surgery there is risk but he guaranteed mine would go smoothly and I had nothing to worry about.

No Shorts for Me! - Sewickley, PA
Rethink this doctor. While he is charming and comes off as very knowledgeable his work shows a different story. Worst mistake I've ever made. Simple surgery turned into a 2 yr long issue which his office is no longer taking care of because they overlooked the issue after numerous attempts. Permanently disfigured and still seeing another dr.

Tummy Tuck with Lipo - Pittsburgh, PA
Nervous! Excited! So much is going through my head, constantly viewing you tube tummy tuck post op videos. I weigh 151 5"7 have two kids. I am having my procedure in 3 days. I hope my recovery goes well.I have heard the drains and swelling are horrible. But recovery won't last forever. I choose to do this to make my confidence better, I hate how I've always had the pouch, even pre-pregnancy.I have never worn a bikini, and never ever had a flat stomach. I've been 112 and I'm 5'7
