Ludwig A. Allegra, MD

I’ve been wanting a breast augmentation for a long time. I went to a few consultations before finding Dr. Allegra. I was told by other doctors that I would make a “beautiful b cup”. This was devastating to hear, but when I went to Dr. Allegra he listened to what I wanted and helped me choose a size that would be proportional to my body. He was very straight forward and used language that I was able to understand regarding the procedure. I was ecstatic to have found a surgeon who genuinely cares about my wants and was able to give me a sense of peace that I was in good hands.

Tried some tops! I’m healing up really nice and feeling so good about getting this procedure done! The girls are starting to settle and swelling is going down (thank god for arnica) there is a tiny bit of bruising in between my breasts but it’s very light and not really noticeable.

I’ll probably just post weekly updates

3 weeks post op! I feel great, everything is dropping beautifully and softening up. I’m now able to wear sports bras and thank god the nipple sensitivity is not as intense! I can’t wait to see how they are in 6 months ????.

I had a brow lift, lower face lift and breast augmentation done all at the same time by Dr. Allegra. I could not be more happy with the results! Recovery time was quick, and the results are perfect!! He is an artist and exquisite in his work. Fantastic bedside manner. I stayed in the hotel nearby which was convenient since I live out of town. Highly recommend Dr. Allegra to anyone seeking aesthetic surgery!

Dr. Allegra is amazing!! He is kind, caring, professional, very attentive. I HIGHLY recommend him to everyone! Could not ask for better!!!

I called with a question after surgery and he promptly returned my call. 

I am BEYOND happy and grateful for Dr. Allegra! He changed my life!

Very happy with my results Had a Brow lift, lower face lift and laser treatment After about 4 rough days I started feeling and looking better with every passing day I would go to Dr Allegra and do it again without hesitation.

Nothing but good things to say about NWFACE and the help/work I have received from Dr.Allegra. I would highly recommend him as his experience is unmatched. ENT or other work he has done for me and my family we are 100% confident whenever I need to see him or want to l look better.

I'd thought about having work done for many years but never trusted any of the previous surgeons I'd meet with. From the first consultation with Dr Allegra I knew he was professional and extremely talented. He was confident in what I wanted to do and answered all my questions, he took the fear of surgery away completely. I have to let everyone know whether you want a small implant done or multiple areas done, Dr Allegras wide breath of experience and longevity in his industry makes him the perfect plastic surgeon for you too. I absolutely loved the bedside manner and after care. No matter how many questions I had, Dr Allegra answered them all in a very timely manner, he is a rare gem in an industry that can make you feel ignorant and over-concerned, any surgery is a big decision and Dr Allegra treats each patient with respect and patience.

Northwest Face and Body is a fancy, clean surgery center on the water front in downtown Kirkland, Washington. The nurses were kind and funny, making me feel comfortable before I went into surgery and doting when I came out. The staff took care of my bills with speed and no headaches, made the accounting fast and easy.

Thank you for everything Dr Allegra and the entire Northwest Face and Body team, keep up the fantastic work. I've already been recommending you by word of mouth to all my closest family and friends.

Dr. Allegra performed a face lift, brow lift, and a lower eye lift. The results are amazing, I feel younger and relaxed! People could even not tell a week after surgery that I had the procedure done. Dr. Allegra made me feel at ease and procedure went smoothly and easily.

A couple years ago I realized I did not smell food properly. A friend recommended I see Dr. Ludwig Allegra for sinus problems. He did a CT Scan and found I had a lot of blocked sinus passages. While under sedation for sinus surgery I added a face-lift. Both went well. Recovery was easy – one week, no pain. I look younger and can smell again. Wonderful staff before, during and after surgery – top drawer. I highly recommend Dr. Allegra for both of these procedures at NW Face.

He fixed my silicone breasts that were placed to far apart. The first Dr in Kirkland that did the implants would not fix them. I had cross eyed nipples and implant that slipped into my armpits. And she said this was normal and would not correct the problem. Dr Allegra repositioned my implants and corrected the outside edge of my pocket so the stay out of my armpits. They are perfect now. The implant is centered under my nipple and they are beautiful. He is a fabulous surgeon.

My experiences with Dr. Allegra were very productive. Dr. Allegra has performed 3 procedures on my me. The first in my late 20's, I had monthly sinus infections and had to pay out of pocket for the prescriptions due to some complications in insurance. My primary doc, Dr. Mary McGregor, said no more prescriptions until I saw Dr. Allegra, she called my hand. He took a look and scheduled surgery without hesitation. Within a couple of weeks I felt like a new person, I had energy, I didn't take a 4 hour nap after work, I could exercise, life was great. In my early 30s husband and I moved to Michigan for job advancement. While there I was exposed to black mold, it was in our home. I kept getting sicker and sicker, no medical person could figure out why I was sick. I will say the symptoms were odd and complicated. So one day my husband quit his job, came home and said we are going home (Seattle) and find out what is wrong with you. It sounds dramatic but until you are around black mold and get sick you can't understand. I could give details but I really don't want to, it was the sickest I had ever been to the point that I had severe hearing loss, which fortunately turned out to be temporary and many other symptoms. Dr. Allegra got me in quickly and had my sinuses scanned and I was off for surgery for the 2nd time. Anyone who has had this surgery knows recovery is not fun, but the very next day I felt so much better, my husband and I were so relieved and happy. The 3rd time which was a month ago it was to fix a deviated septum. I suddenly realized I couldn't breath through one side of my nose. After I mentioned this, my lovely daughter said that even from down the hall my snoring would wake her up, it actually woke me up too, my husband said he could hear me downstairs. I was a mouth breather! So off to see Dr. Allegra again. Today I am not waking anyone up, I can go up the stairs and not stop to catch my breath. Back to living fully thank you Dr. Allegra. Dr. Allegra came highly recommended to me and I would and have recommended him to friends who were thankful for the referral. He knows he stuff. Dr. Allegra is not the kill time talker, but gives you the time you need, he has a good bedside manner, he is much more work oriented, which is what I want in a doctor. He has a kind heart and cares for and about his patients. I hope not to have sinus surgery #4 but if that were to happened he would be the doctor to do it.
