10/10 Lower Bleph with Dr. Burnstine!
Dr. Burnstine performed my lower blepharoplasty with nasal/central fat repositioning and temporal fat removal this January, and I am beyond thrilled with the results. From my very first consultation, I felt completely at ease. I met with both Dr. Burnstine and Dr. Taban, and ultimately chose Dr. Burnstine because of his exceptional warmth, long list of credentials, attention to detail, and the professionalism of his entire team and facility. The procedure itself was remarkably

Wonderful Stress Free Experience
Simply the best......better than all the rest! As a nurse, I am extremely particular of the Dr's I choose for my healthcare. I had consultations with two other surgeons before I found Dr Burnstine. There was a vast difference in their approach to care. My consultation with Dr Burnstine was very comprehensive. He takes his time to explain procedures and answers all questions. After our consultation, I knew without a doubt that I found the right surgeon. Dr Burnstine's' surgical
Dr. Burnstine came highly recommended both by my ophthalmologist and a friend who had her eyelid ptosis surgeries done. He not only lived up to but actually exceeded my expectations! He has an excellent bedside manner, listened to all my concerns, and explained everything clearly. He is highly skilled and experienced, and I couldn't have been happier with my results!

Response from Dr. Michael A. Burnstine, MDWe are thankful for your trust in us!
Dr. Burnstine and his whole team were fantastic. I knew what the steps were every step of the way. The recovery instructions were clear, and when I had questions, the office was easily accessible. I'm very happy with the results, and I've received a number of compliments. I feel like I look 10 years younger. I wish I had found Dr Burnstine earlier :-) And he is a very nice man. He's very empathetic and took care of me every step of the way.

Perfectionist with an Amazing Bedside Manner
I contemplated having upper and lower blepharoplasty for many years, but never pulled the trigger as I was conflicted about choosing a doctor. I knew that I did not want a surgeon who was going to make me look unlike myself. It was important for me to choose a highly skilled Oculoplastic Surgeon. Upon meeting Dr. Burnstine he told me, “If you want something over-the-top, I can refer you to a colleague in Beverly Hills”. I knew with that statement that I picked the right surgeon

Could Not Have Had a Better Experience
Dr. Burnstine is an amazing surgeon and a pleasure to work with. He came highly recommended by my ophthalmologist (who I trust completely) but I had concerns about the surgery...both financial and personal. He made the process both easy and comfortable even in the middle of COVID. He listened to what I wanted, answered questions and his team even helped get the most I could from insurance. I was impressed he insisted on getting old pictures to ensure he could deliver the natural

Best Eye Doctor There Is!
Dr. Burnstine is such a great doctor. He is so knowledgeable and kind and really a joy to work with. From the first time I met him to my final follow-up, he was really attentive and supportive. I chose to have an upper and lower blepharoplasty as well as fix the ptosis in my eyelids. The results were everything I asked for and more. During the actual procedure, his bedside manner was fabulous. I chose to do a local anesthetic and he really made me feel comfortable the whole procedure.
The outcome was exactly as desired
I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Burnstine and my experience. Dr. Burnstine's impressive credentials and extensive experience are clear from reading his biography or website. It should also be known that he is the most pleasant, down to earth, easy to talk to physician that I have ever met. You will never leave his office without understanding your options, the pros and cons, with any and all questions answered. I received upper and lower eyelid surgery. The outcome was

Ptosis and Blepharoplasty - I am thrilled with the results! I have my younger eyes back.
For the past couple of years, my eyes were beginning to look heavy. What I noticed in the pictures with family, was that they barely looked open. I saw a couple of other Ocuplastic surgeons before I finally went to see Dr. Burnstine. The other people that I saw never identified that the issue was migrated upper lid filler. He knew right away that the filler that I had in my upper lids from years ago, had gravitated down and now it was weighing my eyes down. My lids were lower

A Masterful Doctor
I was recommended to Dr. Burnstine by my Ophthalmologist who knew I needed a competent doctor to repair my eyelid after cancer removal surgery. My first impression of his office staff was how extremely professional and treated patients with a high class of service. That followed into my appointment with Dr. Burnstine where I immediately felt his confidence, guidance, and care in my circumstance. He explained how he could repair and lift my eyelids where I would be very satisfied
