In August of 2018, I was diagnosed with breast cancer and was scared beyond belief! I was a strong woman, a wife, raising 2 little humans who called me mom, all while managing a very stressful career and a ton of global work-related travel. I was important, but the day I got that diagnosis, "you have cancer", I was nothing. This is when I was introduced to the most compassionate, smart, loving Dr, who, from the initial consultations, assured me I would be OK. Through every office visit, I knew I found the Dr who would rebuild my body and restore my soul, and that is exactly what this incredible Dr. did. Dr. Redstone related to me, he laughed with me and I am sure at some moments wanted to cry for me, and trust me, I cried a lot. Dr. Redstone, Kiera, Joel -everyone in that office was there every single step of the process: double mastectomy, filling of the expanders, 2 reconstruction surgeries and tons of office visits..... hundreds of questions, anything I needed. I remember every detail of every surgery and the sheer panic, laying on the operating table and seeing Dr. Redstone and Kiera, I knew I was going to not only be OK at that moment but my heart would be too. I trusted him to help save my life and restore my image, which to me was paramount and he did exactly that. There is nothing like a concierge level of service when you are at your most vulnerable and scared, there is nothing like having Joel a phone call away and the NYC office is elegant, quiet, easy to get in and out of with a parking garage right next door! God bless anyone who has to go through what I have done, trust Dr. Redstone, he will help guide you through!
I have been hating my nose for years, and finally decided to do something about it. Dr Redstone was the perfect choice to do it! He is so kind and professional, and is a perfectionist! Just who you want working on your face! My nose was very crooked, and he straightened it out and did a tip revision too. I am only 2 weeks in recovery, but already it looks better and straight!!!! I can't wait to see how great it looks when all the swelling goes away!! Thank you Dr Redstone!! I couldn't be happier! :)
I am now in hospital. Hungry and nervous. My surgery will happen within 2 hours. I am 35 yrs and 34A. I chooses Silicone round shape about 300cc. Dr. Redstone is the doctor who I trust. He is an expert with breast not only BA but also reconstruction and repair of BA. I will see how it is going after surgery. I hope I am good with anesthesia. No nausea no pain after. And could go back to work ASAP. Hope myself good luck! Updated on 13 Sep 2018: So far so good! I was worried about the anesthesia, but it is no need at all! The last memory I have is l moved myself to the stage of surgery. Then the memory followed is in post operation room again. So sleepy! A lot nausea and through up several time. Not as painful as I thought. Pain score is 3-4 if range is 0-10. Dr. Redstone measured me very well and we had a short but great talk before surgery. After surgery, he told my husband that it took 30mins longer than plan as my left side is more complex. I guess maybe there was a bleeding issue. Not sure. He eventually implanted 295cc which I like. I prefer a smaller size as my frame is small. 5’6” and 118lbs. I ate rice soup and took those medicine and I feel good now! Just wanna have a sound sleep tonight. Hope I won’t have the complications.
Kiera is so amazing!!! First bedside manners, she is the sweetest! She makes you feel so comfortable and relaxed. I had my lips done by a plastic surgeon before I met Kiera and they came out uneven and only my boyfriend pointed it out so I was hoping it wasn’t obvious to other people until someone else pointed it out to me and I got so upset. It made it obvious the I got my lips done. Kiera noticed it right away so that made me feel like she is definitely the right person just because she knows what was wrong and how to fix it. She dissolved the filler from the previous injector and reinjected my lips to make them perfect! She did an amazing job correcting my lips and I’ll only use her from now on. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Keira is AMAZING! I was super afraid of having my lips done especially since I have enough “lip surface” you can say. I wanted volume and plump in my lips so they don’t look so flat and I can finally wear lipstick like i always wanted too. AND SHE DID IT! She was super edutcational about the process and her bedside manner was supperb. I don’t have crazy duck lips and they look very natural. I am SO happy! Thank you Keira you will be seeing me again.
After having 2 kids I didn't think I would ever have a flat tummy again, but I went to see Dr. Redstone for a tummy tuck and it was the best decision I ever made! He also fixed my droopy eyelids at the same time. I feel great and look 20 years younger. Dr. Redstone and his staff are the best! Everyone made me feel so comfortable and at ease. Thank you!!
I got a tattoo about the size of a penny of a Libra Sign behind my ear close to my neck. I had to get it removed because of a job so due to lack of time I decided to go through with the excision procedure. Thankfully my tattoo was small enough where that was a option for me. Laser treatment is way too time consuming, not guaranteed and would’ve ended up being more money for me so that’s another reason why I didn’t want to go through with that option. After doing the whole google search and speaking with a few doctors, I came across Dr. Jeremiah Redstone. He was very professional and friendly and knew exactly what he was talking about. Made me feel comfortable from the consultation to the procedure itself. During the consultation, he answered every question and concern I had, we decided on removing the tattoo all at once and scheduled the surgery day. I went in the for the surgery on 4/11/18 and it was done very quickly yet carefully, it took no more than 30-40 minutes. Dr. Redstone did an amazing job, I feel like I chose the perfect doctor who was very knowledgeable about the matter to perform the procedure and I am completely satisfied with my results. It is expected to heal nicely. I posted before and after pictures. So far it’s only been a week of healing since the surgery. I’ll later post a picture to show the progress. Updated on 10 Aug 2018: So I got the surgery back in April and this picture is from this month, so about 4 months later. My scar healed perfectly fine and in my opinion looks awesome. I honestly could not be any happier with the results.
I was very satified with Dr Redstone and his staff, Best hands down, I will be returning for more surgery well worth the money i've spend, he answer any and all my question left no doubt, Im so happy with my results, he has restore my beauty (lol) i didnt have to travel out of the country to get good results
The few days was the worse - I could not stand straight up completely and it bothered my lower back. As the week went on I started to feel better and standing up, but did feel I was almost my normal self until the drains came out - about 2 weeks after surgery. I think I was about 4 or 5 weeks post op when I felt like myself and was back to work.
It has been a year and a half since I had my Diep flap breast reconstruction. I wanted to take a moment to acknowledge, praise and truly thank Dr. Redstone and his staff for making a trying time in my life a positive experience. Dr. Redstone performed the breast reconstruction immediately after a double mastectomy after being diagnosed with DCIS. From the moment I met Dr. Redstone, he made me feel comfortable. He is genuinely caring ...amazingly compassionate and he is a perfectionist. With ever visit, he spent as much time as was necessary to explain everything in great detail in terms I could understand. He always seemed to understand and never dismissed any of my concerns. Allison was always so friendly and made me feel like her friend, rather than a patient. Joel was always so kind and attentive to my needs and/or concerns. At the time, I was confident I made the right choice and I was in good hands. And a year and a half later, I am so happy. My breasts look and feel natural and look amazing. My stomach is flat with very minimal scarring. My experience from beginning to end was flawless. - JSA
Thanks for sharing. I have not met a patient that had a full tummy tuck and wished they had a mini, but I have taken care of quite a few patients that have had a mini and nowwant a full tummy tuck. A mini TT work best for patients with just the mildest amount of loose skin at the waist line. For you a mini would tighten your lower belly and leave the portion around the belly button and above with all the loose skin. Given your weight and underlying abdominal shape a full tummy tuck would get you a truly superior result.Best,Jeremiah Redstone, MD
Thanks for sharing and for putting up photos that help us answer the question. The other docs that have answered this question on RealSelf are really on point. For you I would not recommend a tear drop implant and would not recommend fat grafting. A carefully positioned wider smooth round gel implant can get you fantastic result with nice cleavage and a good nipple position. See a couple more plastic surgeons for evaluation it's definitely worth the time.Best,Jeremiah Redstone MD
Thanks for sharing. Congratulations on the weight loss--nice work. You would be a great candidate for a tummy tuck, most of the damaged stretched skin from pregnancy could be removed and a plication of the rectus muscles will help create a cosmetic waist and profile. People that have lost weight like you have usually have a fantastic surgical result.Best, Jeremiah Redstone
Thanks for the question. There are now multiple choices in the gel within implants from softer to more cohesive. The softer the gel has a softer feel but a higher likelihood of wrinkling and less upper pole fullness. The more cohesive the better the implant holds its shape but it has a firmer feel. Natrelle now has three different gel choices for the Inspira implant SR, SS, and SC from least to most cohesive. Definitely discuss the gel options with your PS. Best of luck,Jeremiah Redstone MD
One of the hardest things to predict after surgery is how much pain a patient will have. Even with the same operation patients will have a wide variation in pain level. Stay positive you are in the early stages of healing--after surgery the body is in the acute phase of healing with the most swelling and discomfort for 6 weeks after that things continue to improve for a full year. So you are just starting the phase where things get better and better every week.
