Simply the Best Surgeon!!
I can’t say enough about this awesome doctor and his wonderful staff!! He provided a rhinoplasty for my daughter and I 25 years ago . His work is top notch and is very kind and compassionate. I always thought if I decided to have another procedure, he would be the one.

Amazing Doctor, Staff, & RESULTS
I recently had an arm lift with Dr. Joe. This was my third surgery with him and his team. I have had significant weight loss over the past three years. This left me more self conscious before I lost +150 lbs with an immense amount of sagging skin. Dr. Joe was phenomenal with my preop care, surgical experience, and post op care. Dr. Joe always knows exactly how to set my mind at ease and make me confident in my skin. My results are unmatched. Dr. Joe, Lori, and his entire staff

Dr. Mlakar is Wonderful!
At age 59 I was ready to have breast reduction surgery. People assume large breasts equate back pain. Not so in my case. Having Fibromyalgia for 30 years meant very sensitive shoulders for bra straps to lie on 8 to 12 hours a day. Also, the best, supportive bras were costing over one hundred dollars just to " let me down " a few weeks later. I turned

Amazing Results
Dr. Joe made me feel like a person from the moment we met, not just a number, and that made a big difference. I also appreciate the exceptional care I received from all the staff during these last couple months at Plastic Surgery Innovations. I would highly recommend Dr. Joe to anyone who is considering having a breast augmentation- the results are fantastic! “REVIEW500”

I Highly, Highly Recommend!
REVIEW500 The entire process from the very first consultation through my last follow-up appointment has been easy and smooth! I am extremely happy with my results, as well as the pre op/post up instructions and care by Dr Joe and his team. PSI offers both saline and silicone, while the other place I called had only saline (which I didn’t want). Their office also has a software to show you an idea of how it may look after surgery (and you get to see the photos at your consultation). Dr.

This Was the Number 1 Best Experience I've Ever Had with a Practice the Doctor and Entire Staff
Im 45 had 5 pregnancies and have wanted a mommy makeover for years. I met dr Joe over 20 years ago when I had an accident and he was so very kind and caring and concerned and he did an amazing job then. Once I found he was still around practicing that was my first consult. It was mainly with lori and she was the most kind hearted very specific and thorough person the dr Joe came in and he was just the same. So gentle and kind and just so very concerned about what I wanted, what

amazing place to leave beautitful
Dr. Joe is an amazing Plastic Surgeon, who takes pride in his work and loves making his clients feel like a million dollars. He takes time to listen and actually visualize what his clients want and also, tells them if he can or can not meet them. His vision is to give his clients even better results than what they dreamed about. The staff are equally amazing, from first consultation to the post surgery days. They make you feel comfortable and treat you like their family. Dr. Joe

Highly recommend, mastopexy with decrease in size/breast reduction
Incredible. I cannot say enough great things about my experience with Dr. Joe and his ENTIRE team. April 2024 I had a mastopexy with decrease in size (breast reduction). From my initial consultation, to the post Op care, I’ve felt like a priory to the team and truly believe in their mission “if their patients are happy, they are happy”. I’m still very early in my journey but feel inclined to share my experience and hopefully help others who are considering the procedure.

Better Than Expected
Dr Joe continues to amaze me with his skill and kindness. I used him for my circumferential life and beast augmentation in April 2022 and for my thigh lift in Sept 5. Pictures speak for themselves.

Dr Joe , Lori , and his staff were very professional. They explained the procedure very throughly. I would highly recommend Dr Joe to all my friends and family. I’m one month post operative, and they look and feel natural. I am very happy with my results.
