AREAS OF EXPERTISE

Breast Surgery

At Gryskiewicz Twin Cities Cosmetic Surgery, I specialize in Quick Recovery Breast Augmentation, also known as the “no-touch technique.” This innovative approach uses special instruments and techniques to minimize tissue damage and avoid rib contact during the breast augmentation procedure (hence the term “no-touch”), causing far less trauma to the surrounding tissue when compared to traditional approaches. Quick Recovery Breast Augmentation can dramatically reduce patients’ discomfort following the procedure, as well as their recovery time. After I began using this technique, my team and I interviewed each patient post-operatively to assess the results. We discovered that 95 percent of women returned to normal daily activities within 24 hours. I now recommend this technique for almost all of my patients interested in breast augmentation. It is certainly the most common surgical procedure for me personally, performing over 300 per year.

190cc Mentor Over the Muscle

I have wanted boobs and Loved boobs since I was 13 and all my friends got them. I waited and waited and waited for mine to grow and it never happened lol. I’m 25 now and it just hit me this year like what am I waiting for ?!? This breast aug was the best decision I’ve ever made. My dreams literally came true. No one would understand me saying this except this community, but not having any boob at all (like there was literally just nipple before) was like missing out on such a crucial part of being a woman and feeling feminine and being into fashion. I am 5’5”, 110lbs and was 30A/32AA before this. I wanted to post this because I had such a hard time finding small breast implant inspiration. I have a small frame and I did not want this to be obvious to people who knew me or for me to look top heavy. I just wanted to balance my body and be able to wear clothes without looking like a little boy. I also spend tons of time in swimsuits in the summer and wanted to fill out bikinis. I also work out a lot so I knew this would be a factor. I had my consultation on 10/20 and loved Dr Joe’s team so much. They looked at my inspiration pictures and instantly understood my vision. They recommended over the muscle and around 200cc for my measurements and frame and to achieve my goal pictures. I agonized about what size to do as my biggest inspiration was @Rational313023 170cc motiva implants, but she had more existing tissue than I did so I ended up going slightly bigger. I also was so split between motiva and mentor because motiva tends to wrinkle less, but I ultimately chose mentor because they are much softer and tried and true long term. I ended up with 190cc mentor implants over the muscle with the incision under the boob. I think I also would’ve been fine going up to 205cc or even 225cc as the difference is so menial (watch videos showing what 25/50cc looks like if you’re worrying over 2 sizes). I got my breast aug on November 21st and just had my 2 week post op appointment yesterday. The healing process was incredibly easy, my pain was never over a 2/10 and I’ve been able to do everything normally since day 2 (except workout of course). Dr Joe’s quick recovery method is absolutely wonderful and with over the muscle, this has been such a breeze to heal from. I feel like they are already settling and softening and they are everything I’ve ever wanted. I am obsessed and can’t stop looking in the mirror Lol!! I hope this helps someone looking for small implants. I went bra shopping last week and I now measure at a 32C, which would’ve scared me if you told me that before my surgery, but they are perfect size!!!! Trust your doctors recommendations!

No Pain!

I love how quickly the team was able to schedule me in after consultation! I didn’t even take the painkillers because I felt zero pain after surgery, just tightness. With Dr. Joe’s Quick Recovery Method, you don’t have to worry about downtime!

So glad I found Dr. Joe! I never took prescription pain meds afterwards

Had an amazing time having my breast augmentation done with Dr. Joe. Everyone I met and/or talked during the entire process was so kind and answered all of my 1,000 questions. I never took prescription paid meds after the procedure, only Tylenol and even that was just to help with swelling. Can’t wait for them to be fully healed, they already look great!

So Happy, I Did This!

I’m so happy that I did this! I’m a runner, I had recently gotten back into shape after having two babies and breast-feeding, but there was still extra skin on my belly and my breasts. I was still wearing my postpartum band to go running when my youngest kid was three! So I went in for a consultation, and felt really welcome, so I ended up staying with this surgeon. I had a mastopexy with augmentation, and an abdominoplasty. I’m nine weeks out now, and I’m wearing the same jeans from high school, literally went to my parents house and tried it on my high school jeans, and they fit. And I’m able to jog with one bra, and no belly band!

The results have exceeded my expectations

I'm writing this review to express my sincere gratitude to Dr. Joe Gryskiewicz and his incredible team for the exceptional care I received during my recent upper blepharoplasty. From the moment I stepped into their office, I felt welcomed and valued. The entire experience was seamless, from the initial consultation to the post-operative care. Dr. Joe Gryskiewicz and team took the time to listen to my concerns and goals, and his expertise and gentle demeanor put me at ease. The procedure itself was a breeze, and the results have exceeded my expectations. I'm so grateful for the positive impact this procedure has had on my self-confidence and overall well-being. I would highly recommend Dr. Joe and his team to anyone considering upper blepharoplasty. They truly go above and beyond to ensure their patients feel beautiful and empowered. Thank you again for everything! Sincerely, Kristine Breimhorst

Dr. Joe Truly Gave Me my Confidence Back!

Dr. Joe truly gave me my confidence back. Dr. Joe performed a pocket revision surgery for a surgery he did not originally do. After 1.5 years of living with an implant that didn’t fall correctly I was left feeling exhausted & unheard from the original surgeon. Dr. Joe validated my concerns & did absolutely everything in his power to support me. To finally feel heard & validated, brought my heart so much peace. I was immensely struggling with my confidence & body, after what was supposed to be a beautiful personal investment to full body freedom; it impacted my mental & emotional health tremendously. Dr. Joe’s ability to be kind, encouraging, & provide comfort through this extremely sensitive process touched my heart in a way that is truly indescribable. The conversations & what he did for me up until this point in itself definitely changed my life, but there’s more. After fixing the original breast he felt that the other one needed a revision as well & with the permission from my S/O, he did just that. That on the table decision that he made reveled another life changing event as something was discovered that would not have been if Dr. Joe did not act on his gut feeling. I have immense gratitude for Dr. Joe & his surgical staff for making that decision. This process the second time around has been beautiful, as I desired with my first one. It has been healing to me on all levels & I feel complete joy with my body. Dr. Joe is an amazing surgeon, and most importantly an amazing person. Thank you & your team for absolutely everything you have done for me! You all have made this process effortless for me! It is an honor to have received work from you & with tears of joy I can express that I absolutely love my perfect breasts!

Beautiful, round, natural looking and feeling breasts

I cannot give Dr. Joe and his entire staff enough stars, my entire experience felt like a dream. From the warm and friendly clinic staff, in depth consultation (where all my questions plus more were answered), the surgery itself (I felt fine the very same day as my surgery and was back to caring for my toddler as normal with no pain or complications), to my results themselves (I started tuberous, I could have never imagined I could have beautiful, round, natural looking and feeling breasts). I also love that Dr. Joe does both over the muscle and under the muscle placement as well as every incision type, that way you know you are getting the very best personalized advice. I went with 290cc mentor boost mod plus, over the muscle. I am 5’2 and was 130 at the time of surgery with a bwd of 11.4.As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway.

I couldn’t be happier and I’m still in the healing process

Dr. Joe Gryskiewicz and his staff are exceptional. They are very caring and friendly. It was easy to do zooms as I lived three hours away. They scheduled my consult the day before my surgery so I didn’t have to travel twice before the procedure. The reason I picked Dr. Joe is because of his many years of experience, looking through photos of his work, I’m very picky (I researched 5 different surgeons) I had liposuction on my chin and neck and blepharoplasty on my eyes. Dr. Joe made my eyes look exotic!! I couldn’t be happier and I’m still in the healing process.

Response from Dr. Joe Gryskiewicz, MD, FACSWe are all so happy with how everything turned out. And we even just did it in the office without anesthesia, just sleeping pills, and some Novacaine. It really changed your appearance, turned back the clock and I’m glad you’re happy. All the best, Dr. Joe, and Family.
