I decided not to wait until my 50s or 60s to address my progressively aging face
I’m 43 years old and was unhappy with the signs of aging on my face, including noticeable hooding on my eyes, slight jowls, and sagging skin on my neck. I decided not to wait until my 50s or 60s to address my progressively aging face—I want to look and feel my best now. Initially, I was considering flying to California for Dr. Kao’s ponytail facelift, but I decided to stay closer to home. That turned out to be the best decision I could have made. I underwent a microscopic brow

At age 59, I look better than I have looked in years
Dr. Barrera is a medical "artist"! His surgical skill is amazing. It's been five months since I had a deep plane facelift and co2 laser resurfacing. I am so pleased. My biggest fear was that I'd look like I'd had a procedure. That I'd look different, or unnatural. But that is not the case at all. I just look BETTER! I am thin, and therefore aging was more prevalent on my face, with sagging and deep lines. I also had a lot of sun damage. At age 59, I look better than

The “Boost Your Self-esteem Doctor” Worth EVERY Penny!!
My entire life, I’ve always had HUGE self-confidence issues when it came to the appearance of my ears. In school I was made fun of, so as a young adult, I would always wear my hair down because my ears took away from my facial appearance in such a big way. Otoplasty wasn’t something that even came across my radar of possibilities until after I had my first cosmetic procedure back in Spring ‘19. I had a breast augmentation and loved the confidence it gave me, so I began looking

Dr. Barrera and his team were nothing but the best
Doing a buccal fat removal is by far one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life. Dr. Barrera and his team were nothing but the best to make sure I felt comfortable during the procedure and it didn't take long for me to notice the results.

No Smiles for 40 Years
I lost my life at 22 years old due to a large acoustic neuroma brain tumor which was discovered by my ENT doctor and Neurologist right after I had completed my undergraduate studies in Ohio. I was headed to graduate school, but soon realized I wasn't going anywhere except to surgery. I thought it was water lodged in my ears because I swam daily. People sounded muffled on the phone if I held the phone to my left ear. And I had had headaches but never really paid much attention
Great Experience & Awesome Outcome!
I searched high and low for the best surgeon and went to numerous consultations from very reputable doctors all over SA. I picked Dr Jose Barrera and his awesome staff due to his extensive experience, in-depth knowledge, and because his focus is all about the neck, and face. To top things off Dr Barrera was also very professional, listens, understanding, very patient and genuine. Make sure to do your research first and then save yourself some time by seeing Dr Barrera.

I had a lip lift on February 13, 2020
I reached out to Dr Barrera because my ex fiance (Huntress)of ten years his parents mentioned Dr Barrera in a conversation. I love adore and worship Mr & Mrs Fritzgerald Huntress, previous owners of channel five news, San Antonio Express, Shiloh restaurant on the River walk, YO Ranch and The San Antonio zoo. See why lol I had a Lip lift last Thursday February 13, 2020 at Dr Barrera's office. I have an appointment with Dr. Barrera tomorrow morning. I plan to post more about

Dr. Barrera is a perfectionist! He exceeded my expectations
Dr. Barrera is a Perfectionist! He exceeded my expectations. From my initial consultation to my most recent post op visit, Dr. Barrera and his staff were extremely friendly, professional, and supportive. His professionalism, personality, and knowledge closed the deal. As a result I am more confident, happier, and grateful to have found and had super Dr. Jose Barrera perform my surgical rhinoplasty and septoplasty. Pro: I was back at work a week later and my nose was already looked
