CONSULTATION REVIEW Second opinion for botched breast reduction / lift
After having a botched breast reduction / lift with dr. Gary Motykie which resulted in fat necrosis and the loss of my nipples, Dr. Joel Aronowitz was so kind to call me through face time, since I live in another continent to give me his second opinion and medical advice. He did not even charge me for this consultation. I really appreciate his kind gesture and humanity.

Botox and Juvederm User and BD Member! - Los Angeles, CA
I have been getting Botox from dermatologists for the past 7 years and heard about Dr. Aronowitz from a friend of mine. (He replaced her implants with fat, she looks amazing) I met with him and his injectable consultant and they suggested a little Juvederm in my upper lip to create a little fullness and to smooth out my lip lines. I was hesitant at first but finally agreed. I am SO glad that I did... my lip looks natural and full and my lip lines have smoothed out beautifully!!

Post-Mastectomy - Have a Pretty New Boob That Matches the Real One! – Los Angeles, CA
Dr. Aronowitz answered all of my questions and did a beautiful job on my breast reconstruction. I would use his services again for any type of plastic surgery or beauty enhancement process. He spent time with me at length to be sure I was clear and at ease about the surgery. His staff also quickly answered all of my questions and concerns whether by phone or by email. Additionally, they have a new general MD, Dr. Sabena Toor, on staff who is wonderful. She is now my regular doctor

Highly Recommend Dr. Aronowitz for Stem Cell and Fat Transfer - Los Angeles, CA
I came to see Dr. Aronowitz as a 31 year old female to discuss reconstructive surgery from radiation damage after having bi-lateral retinoblastoma, a cancer of the retina. The radiation administered to the temple area at the age of 17 months had caused extensive bone, muscle and tissue damage in the temples and surrounding area. I had previously had two reconstructive surgeries on this area, one using stem cells. I was extremely skeptical about going to yet another plastic

Goofy Smile After Rhinoplasty (Stiches in Mouth) - Beverly Hills, CA
I had a wonderful experience at this office in Beverly Hills. Great staff, great doctor, very imformative, accomidating and easy to work with. I would reccomend this surgeon to anyone.I had rhinoplasty almost 2 weeks ago and my nose looks great but my smile is awful. My surgeon had to cut the skin connecting my lip to my gum (b/c my lips would of been too raised) and now it is really tight in that area and I have the goofiest smile ever. Will my normal smile ever return?

Bad Experience - Los Angeles, CA
I booked a breast augmentation surgery with Dr. A to fix a tubular deformity. The day after the surgery, I noticed that one breast was significantly larger than the other (one B cup and D cup). I called the office, and was told Dr. A had left for vacation. When he returned a week later, he said one breast was only swollen, and that I should get massage sessions from a woman in his office to make the swelling go down. The massages were $225/session!! After realizing the massages
While it is certainly understood that Surgeons (and those specializing in Plastic, at that) in Los Angeles earn a great living... Dr. Joel Aronowitz puts Cedar Sinai and the medical community to shame with his blatant 'inside referrals' (to his own outside 'medical spas') and lack of true depth or compassion. Having survived traumatic cancer surgery, I was referred to Dr. Aronowitz for some light follow-up. The first meeting, I got the 'warm, avuncular, caring' Dr. Joel - 'I'll

BUYER BEWARE DON'T GO HERE - Los Angeles, CA
I saw Dr. Aronowitz for a thigh lift and minor liposuction. He did the thigh lift and it didn't help much at all. He also did some work on my upper body which I knew would leave a significant scar, but he SWORE it would be under my bra line. Results: nothing much from the thigh lift and the SCAR on my back was so high that no bra, bathing suit, tank top, etc would ever cover it. His response when I saw him for aftercare was "Oh well, I could have done more (the thighs) and

In 2006 I had a mastectomy
In 2006 I had a mastectomy. Nothing was left but a scar across my chest....I also had 5 weeks of radiation. I was told that because I had radiation treatment, I was not a candidate for reconstruction with expanders and an implant. There was no longer a good blood supply to support an implant. I went to at least 5 reconstruction doctors and they gave me the same opinion...that if I wanted reconstruction I would have to opt for a tram flap or something equally invasive to remove
