Jonathan Kulbersh, MD

I'm 67 and have been wanting to get rid of my sagging jowls, but have been quite nervous about getting it done! I saw a great review about Dr. Kulbersh of RealSelf and his before and after photos were very natural looking plus he specializes in facial surgeries only so I figured that he would be the best surgeon for me! He had a very calming demeanor about him so I was not as nervous after my initial consultation. He had been extremely kind, soft spoken and caring the whole way, from pre-surgery to post surgery and allayed my concerns about getting the surgery. Every nurse and Surgery Coordinator that I had I dealt with in his team were all quite kind, very caring and highly professional as well. The anesthesiologist was amazing as well - I woke up !!! I'm at Day 3 and have very minimal bruising on the side of the face and my bandages are coming off tomorrow - Day 4. I was quite sore the first night of the surgery which is to be expected and still a bit sore the next day but felt fine with just taking Extra Strength Tylenol. I should be able to go out in Public this weekend since my sutures could be hidden with my hair down. My sutures are coming off on Day 7 and quite excited to see my face without the bandages. If you are in the Charlotte, NC or surrounding area and thinking of getting it done, I highly recommend Dr. Kulbersh for any face surgery! There are other Plastic Surgeons closer to where I live, but it is worth driving the distance to have Dr. Kulbersh perform my face lift! No regrets! Thanks Dr. Kulbersh!!

I had the best experience with Dr. Kulbersh, Katherine and the whole team at Carolina Facial Plastics. I felt like I’ve tried all the products under the sun for my under eye bags but nothing ever worked. I had also always felt self conscious of my weak chin in pictures but filler just wasn’t giving me the results I wanted. I decided to make an appointment for a consult with Dr. Kulbersh to see if I’d be a good candidate for chin implant and lower blepharoplasty. Dr. K listened to my concerns and I’m so glad I trusted him completely because I couldn’t have been more pleased with the results. As someone who doesn’t wear a ton of makeup, I wanted to still look myself but more refreshed/rested and natural. The procedure was very straightforward and recovery was way better than anticipated. The entire team immediately made me feel so comfortable and by the end of my journey I felt like part of the family.

Recovery was kind of like a mini vacation (I spent 2 days kid free at my mom’s house). The pain was minimal, just a little tight/itchy from the bandages but way easier than I had prepared myself for. Swelling and bruising was also much less expected and they even treated the bruises at my 1 week post-op visit, which cleared them up in a few days time. Even the chin implant, which I expected to be sore, felt completely natural from the start. I have never “felt” the implant at all & any numbness was gone after about 2 weeks. In total, I took 3 days off work and was back to working from home after a long (5 day) weekend & back on camera for meetings and picking up kids from school after a week.

The best part is that I immediately felt like my face structure was more balanced and my eyes/cheekbones are so much more prominent now. I even find myself mouth breathing much less and nose breathing instead, since my mouth can close more easily. My only complaint is that I didn’t save my money on filler & endless under eye products, and instead put it towards booking the procedure sooner.

My experience was exceptional. Dr. Kulbersh listened to my concern and I was given the opportunity to ask questions. He repaired my issue which involved a chin implant that went well and made a big difference in my appearance! I was really blown away at the delivery of a beautiful bouquet of flowers yesterday for gratitude of choosing his service. I will seek him out for other procedures. His nurses were wonderful who were very kind and caring.

Absolutely amazing and talented physician with wonderful support staff. They were informative and professional every step of the way. I underwent an upper blepharoplasty as well as a TCA peel and I am overjoyed with my results. Friends that knew I had these procedures completed can not believe the results. This office and his team will be my go to for any future cosmetic procedures.

Dr Kulbersh was amazing...I had a facelift about a month ago, as a male patient I'm extremely happy with his work, I did have extra bleeding and the Dr offered to see me daily and even over the weekend. He is very talented and conservative, he told me that "it shouldn't be obvious to the public that you've had a facelift" this was achieved in his work; subtle but took at least 5 years off my face in my opinion. I would highly recommend Dr Kulbersh and his staff, he will see to it that you're totally taken care of through the healing process.

For the past five years I've been going to Dr. Kulbersh and his team for the occasional treatment and have been incredibly satisfied with the results. Getting older for men can be just as challenging as it is for women these days, especially being in an occupation that is so public-facing as mine. That said, Dr. K and Heather did great work to refresh my tired, droopy eyes and I always felt and looked so much better after a visit. This past year, after the loss of my mother, I felt like I was wearing grief on my face full-time and the experience seemed to speed up the aging process. That's when I decided to look at a more permanent solution to my tired eyes. I did my research and didn't want to look like I had work done, or look "cut" or "feminized" as so many men often look when having work done to refresh the eyes. Dr. Kulbersh listened to my concerns and made his recommendations and so I finally made the decision to have a surgical procedure to refresh my upper and lower lids. For my upper lids, he recommended a brow lift so there would be no cutting around my lids, and on the lower lids, he did a lower lift that involved fat pad respositioning. Only two weeks later, I am amazed at the results!! I don't look like any "work" was done and simply look like I had a nice vacation and am well-rested. Dr. K said, "No one will know you had work done, they will simply think you look refreshed." And boy did he deliver on that promise!!! I am so happy with the results and highly recommend Dr. Kulbersh and his team for both short term refreshes and long-term corrections. The office and surgical suite are so high-end, comfortable, and never intimidating on any level. I just can't say enough about this work and am so incredibly satisfied with the procedure as well as Dr. Kulbersh and his whole staff. Thank you all so much!!!

Dr Kulbersh and his staff are all amazing. He performed a chin augmentation on me on February of 2022 and I am so happy with my result. It turned out completely natural. I was afraid of the pain after surgery but it was minimal. He listens which is so important to me and answers any questions that you have. The way Dr Kulbersh speaks gave me 100% confidence. I was in great hands.

The absolute best decision I ever made!
Dr Johnathan Kulbersh is an artist. There was no pain and a quick recovery and before I knew it there was a prettier me staring back at me in the mirror. I also had a lower face and a neck lift procedure. The team at Carolina Facial Plastics were 100% professional and put me at ease all along the way. I can not imagine a better experience or outcome!

I went in for my After photos and cried! I was so thrilled with the results. I was honestly shocked! I have a receding chin but use fillers for that. I no longer have to fiddle with fillers in my lips!

I had an endoscopic browlift in June 2021, and as always with Dr. Kulbersh's work, the results look great AND totally natural. He clearly understands that most of us don't want to look like Hollywood celebs, even if we could - we just want to look like the best version of ourselves. I trust Dr. Kulbersh's opinions and recommendations implicitly. The only I would go for facial plastic surgery and fillers.

I can't gush enough about how pleased I am! I had several procedures done together including the brow lift, buccal fat removal, mini lift, rhinoplasty & upper blepharoplasty. It surprisingly wasn't that painful & the results exceeded my expectations.
My photos are only 4 weeks after surgery so there is still a little residual swelling but.....wow!
