Amazing Cheek Lift

Dr. Richards is absolutely the most technically skilled and artistic plastic surgeon and I am beyond thrilled with my cheek lift results! After consulting with several surgeons for over 12 months before choosing him, I realized his approach is very individually tailored and he makes the best choices for the patient’s specific bone and muscle structures, which is important to me. My cheeks were falling (I’m in my 40’s) which created nasolabial folds (that my kids were quick

Amazing experience!

Dr. Mark Richards is the best! I have been a patient of Dr. Richards for nearly 10 years and have sent many friends and family members to him without hesitation. As a surgeon he is a genius, for injectibles he is a true artist and with BHRT he is a life-saver! On top of that he is a kind, caring MD who listens to your concerns, answers your questions and gives great results. His nurse, Janie is wonderful as is the rest of his office staff and esthetician. Highly recommend.

34 Yrs Old 2 Kids BA gummy bear 490 cc Ready to Love Myself Again - Rockville, MD

I have had a few consultation and I have chosen to go with a Doctor Mark Richard out of Rockville MD. He was very friendly precise and just awesome. Out of all my consults his experience was the best. I am scheduled to have my BA March 16th. I have decided to go with just a BA now. I am currently a very deflated saggy B/C cup. I am a candidate for a lift but my Doctor is going to give me 490 cc in each breast. I m going with the textured gummy bear, high profile. I think at

Leap of Faith - Rockville, MD

Hi Everyone, Tomorrow at 0630 is my surgery. I won't lie, I am a little scared because once it's done, it's done. I was watching a few actual surgery video's to give me that true,realistic sense of what I'm in for tomorrow. I'm getting a pain pump which I hope helps. Not sure if I'll have to supplement with meds but I'm ready I guess for that too. Everyone looks so good when it's done. I'm more worried about post op pain and not making sure I look the way I hope too. I am

Worth It

Eyebrow Lift with Mid Face Lift - Bethesda, MD

The procedure went well with nary a bump...Came back to have tubes removed about a week later. That went well also considering a little complication (no fault of the dr, we hit a vein or artery and it started gushing. Dr Richards was so calm...instructed his assistant and me what to do...and he nipped in the bud! There was swelling and bruising for a few weeks and mild pain at the beginning. Nothing too bad. I did look like an alien though! My kids took pictures! AFter about

Pretty Terrible

I had BHRT pellet therapy here and it was a disaster. Hurt for weeks and months afterward and did not help my worst menopausal symptoms. Also took no responsibility for poor outcome as other reviews mention. Under no circumstances would I allow this Dr to touch me with a scalpel. Janie his nurse seems like the best part of the office.

Ruined my Face, my Life

Nasal bone caved in because of his aggressive and poor technique. He refused to admit that anything was wrong after. He also ruined my breathing. I've since had a revision to restore my appearance somewhat. I had initially come in just for a septoplasty to improve my breathing, but he pushed a full rhinoplasty on me, even though I had a nice nose that no one ever commented on. In the end, he destroyed both my breathing and my appearance. He never discussed any risks with me. The

Nightmare Facelif by Mark Richards

I had my surgery 4 years ago and still suffering and regret it every time I see myself in the mirror. The day after the surgery I noticed my face doesn't look right. First Richards told me my face was uneven because of the swelling due to the surgery and the swelling would go down with time and patience. He continuously kept telling me my face would get better. At 6 months he told me I should get fat graft to fix unevenness (how convenient) and year after the surgery he said

Consultation review: Bad Experience, Horrified Mark Richards Bethesda

I met Mark Richards for another issue but he and his assistant Laura, were pushing me to get a face and neck lift at a young age. When I said my neck and lower face is as young and firm as it can be, they said that's the only way surgeries done. Never done or seen someone having surgery, believed him but I couldn't get my neck cut for no reason. Now after talking to many doctors I know what I was told, was so wrong. I learned this in the process that your can't trust anyone in

Incompetent and refuses to acknowledge mistakes - Bethesda, MD

I had a rhino last year where he did exactly what I told him not to do. He screwed up my face and pretended like it was a swelling issue. 12 months later I'm booking a revision with an actual face doc. DON'T GO TO HIM! Only after the surgery he admitted that he couldn't do what I had requested, so he screwed things up instead. I would have paid him twice his fee to not have done it.
