I had 300ccs silicone implants placed partially under the muscle in 2018. Unfortunately I had a very hard time fitting into most dresses with this breast size and decided to get them removed. Dr. Jonathan Cook did an amazing job from start to finish. He's a very caring and attentive doctor who made my experience very comforting while also delivering amazing results! Highly recommend him as a plastic surgeon! Updated on 1 Sep 2023: Ive been applying embrace scar therapy and had my first laser session yesterday. Taking it easy during this time has been key during my recovery. First pic is 2 days post op.
The procedure went great. However, I was expecting more amount of fillers than what I received. The results were good but my dark circles seem to reappear. Nevertheless, thank you for the great procedure!
I received facetite and neck liposuction from Dr. Cook. Dr. Cook was very nice and he recommended what he thought would be the best way to remove my excess fat. He was very supportive and did not make me feel more insecure about my double chin. In terms of the staff they were all very welcoming. The whole team made it clear that they were their to support you. I went to the Boca Raton facility and it was very clean and sanitary. Overall if you are looking to alter your appearance I would recommend going to Dr. Cook for a consultation.As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway

I got a referral to see Jonathan Cook. Made my first appointment had a great session felt like I needed more questions answered had another session and was there for a while answering all my questions. Scheduled my procedure and was awake during my two hours liposuction and it was a comfortable and fun environment wow I was very aware of what was going on I was very comfortable and trusted Dr Cook and his assistant completely. I’m including this “review500” because I wanted to take a moment to thank the office for having such great professionalism and an amazing bedside manner. Looking forward to six months from now to see my result. As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway
I have wanted to do this for 2 years. Menopause and cancer has created unwanted fat and saggy thighs. I consulted with Dr. Cook and he worked his magic. Even a day after surgery the difference in my stomach and waist and back and thighs was totally different. It had been a week and the results are fantastic!!
Dr Cook did such an amazing job on my reverse tummy tuck! For years I have wanted to tighten my abdominal skin but didn’t want the huge scar across my waist. I am a competitive bodybuilder and I think the scar would impact my placing. I also didn’t have so much loose skin to justify being cut the typical tummy tuck way. I went to several surgeons for consultations and they told me the operation I wanted didn’t exist. Upon my consultation with Dr. Cook, he informed me that he could execute the procedure and that I was a good candidate. I appreciate that he was honest with me by telling me it would be a difficult recovery. I especially liked that he isn’t a cookie cutter cosmetic surgeon. He spent so much time with me because he wanted to understand my expectations and provide my desired outcome. He hit the mail on the head and I couldn’t be happier. I have waited for this surgery for so long. I am so happy I found Dr. Cook! Finally, the staff at Sanctuary Plastic surgery are incredibly positive and uplifting. Everyone working there is invested in the well-being of the patient. Updated on 30 Sep 2022: I gained some weight after the surgery. I have been working too come back to my typical body fat percentage so that I could take these pictures and get accurate representation of Dr. Cook’s work. The swelling is gone. There are some areas that still have bruising but I think it will go away in time. To be completely honest, I didn’t adhere to the Massage schedule as much as I should have. This is why I think I still have bruising. Overall I am so incredibly happy. Before the surgery, I felt like no matter what I did, my stomach was out of shape. It was annoying that my dedication and work wasn’t represented in my body because of the loose skin on my midsection. I would have to get down to an unattainable body fat percentage just to see my abs and I was constantly picking myself apart. I’m about 19% BF. This is a healthy number for a woman and I feel really good with how I look. I have more freedom to enjoy life. Thank you Dr. Cook! Updated on 30 Sep 2022: The neat thing about the surgery is the ability to hide the scars. The 2 biggest scars are hidden under the breast. The other scars are from the liposuction and the scars are just dots. Unfortunately, my husband was injured soon after my surgery and I was unable to make it to the laser scar treatment appointments.
I can't say enough about the practice as a whole and Dr Cook. They completely healed my forehead scar and led me through every step of the process holding my hand. Their technology bedside manner and caring was second to none. I was very worried particularly about anything on my face and they not only fixed me but made me feel hopeful the whole way. I couldn't be happier with them and am so happy to recommend them to everyone else
I am extremely happy with my experience with Dr. Cook. He is caring, professional, easygoing, and made my treatment enjoyable. He has a real eye for detail and very good hands! I will definitely be coming back to Dr. Cook for my future treatments!
I had a surgical procedure with Dr. Cook on my hand due to an injury while playing sports. This was a complicated procedure with a highly functional outcome. The entire time Dr. Cook and his team (especially Nurse Chrissy) made sure I was comfortable and well taken care of. Dr. Cook was professional, extremely kind, and knowledgeable. Thank you so much for going above and beyond during one of the scariest moments in my life. I would undoubtably recommend Dr. Cook to anyone!
The best solution is to do revision liposuction and possibly a scar revision. Contrary to what you may have heard, it *is* possible to have "secondary" (i.e. repeat) liposuction to correct contour deformities. The difficulty is increased, so make sure you go to a provider who you trust.
We see this all the time in South Florida. Years of sun exposure causes brown and red pigmentation at the décolleté area (upper chest). This can be treated effectively with Sciton HERO BBL (their newest IPL device), with results in as little as one or two treatments. There is minimal "downtime" other than having what (ironically) looks like a sunburn on your chest for a week or two. The rough texture to the skin can be treated with a different laser, either fractional or full-field Erbium resurfacing. I would recommend waiting until after the IPL before trying resurfacing -- you may see an improvement in texture from the IPL alone. Hope this helps!
Hi and thanks for you question! I'll start by saying that it is difficult to give you advice without seeing you in person (or at least seeing good pictures). To me it sounds like you have Grade 3 ptosis; and if I understand you, you want your nipples higher and your breasts a little closer together. There are a few options that you may want to consider. The first option is to forego placing an implant altogether, and simply do a "mastopexy" (breast lift). This could raise your nipples without dramatically changing the shape and volume of your breasts. If you wanted, you could combine this with fat grafting to increase "medial pole fullness," thereby decreasing the distance between your breasts, without dramatically changing the volume of your breasts. Another option, if you would prefer a larger increase in the volume of your breasts, is to place a breast implant. This could be done separately from a mastopexy, to focus on increasing breast volume, or at the same time, to move the nipple higher *and* increase breast volume. These options are just choices to consider. A thorough discussion with your plastic surgeon and an in-person examination (to properly evaluate your unique anatomy) are essential to reaching the right choice for you. I hope this helps!
Hi and thanks for your question! There is no need to delay a laser peel after having had Botox or fillers. Even the deepest lasers (such as a deep resurfacing with Erbium or CO2) are too superficial to affect the products you had injected; in other words, they do not peel deep enough to cause any change to the toxin/fillers. No need to wait to schedule your laser. I hope this helps!
Hi Ella2312, in short, you are an excellent candidate for liposuction. We see the best best outcomes after liposuction in patients like you: patients who are already at their goal weight, and who are exercising and eating healthy. Looking at your pictures, you seem to have a small amount of excess fat in your lower abdomen (below the belly button), your flanks (especially posteriorly), and perhaps a small amount at your medial thighs. Removing this fat with liposuction will give you a more sculpted look, highlighting your underlying muscular definition. Because you are young and healthy, I think you would get a great result from traditional liposuction alone; you don't necessarily need additional energy to tighten the skin. That being said, an in-person examination of your skin laxity would help to determine this. Some options to consider for skin tightening at the time of liposuction would be BodyTite or Renuvion, but you should have this conversation with your plastic surgeon. To answer your earlier question, CoolScultping is a fine procedure, but I don't think it would be the best option for you. You need more of a "lipocontouring" procedure, and liposuction can achieve this with far more finesse than CoolSculpting. And finally, after liposuction, you should be prepared for bruising and significant swelling, lasting up to 3 months. Wishing you good luck on your journey!
