I just got my second surgery with Dr. Oren Tepper and I couldn’t be happier with my results. Fat grafting under my eye area was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! The area now looks more plumped and much smoother than before. I’ll definitely never go back to under-eye fillers! We had also decided to do a brow lift which made my eyes even more open and gave me new fresh look. The procedure itself was very easy and painless. I’m still in recovery process but everything looks amazing already. And of course as always I have the best aftercare you can only imagine!
From initial consultation to post operative appointments, Dr. Tepper has been detailed in explaining the process, set (realistic) expectations and approached this with a detail of transparency that automatically made me feel I can entrust my care to him. It is noteworthy to mention that I did not experience pain post op. This only means Dr. Tepper holds magic in his hands. I recommend without reservations.
After three c-sections, clean eating and constant exercising, I just could not get rid of the extra fat above my c-section scar and on my hips. I had a consult with Dr. Tepper after a friend highly recommended him after her own liposuction and breast lift done. Well I am SO glad I did. Any fears I had about the appointment were quickly washed away after I met him. He has such a relaxed, kind and calm demeanor and really listened to my struggles. I was so hesitant in doing this for myself but now I am SO happy and only wish I would have gone to Dr. Tepper sooner!!!! The results were exactly what I wanted and I feel better in my body now then even before I had children! I am so grateful to Dr. Tepper and his team.
I can't say enough good stuff about the professional and engaging Dr. Tepper and his staff. Dr. Tepper takes the time to listen, assess and explain procedures and outcomes, and Genevieve runs the office with grace and efficiency. His reputation for stellar work is well deserved; I would not go to anyone other than Dr. Tepper for future work.
Dr. Tepper is very professional, courteous and caring for results of his treatment. I had POD threads complication and came to his office for this problem. I was impressed with his professional approach and his practical skills based on his long experience. I highly recommend him! My face looks and feels so much better now. It’s very difficult to find the right experienced doctor with good skills. I’m very happy to have found him.
Let me start with Dr Tepper is a celebrity doc - check him out ... He stitched (he might not like this choice of word) my head after a Mohs surgery. It is super minor task in the portfolio of the things he does. Still he treated it like the most important case of the day. Needless to say he is grounded. Two days later we run into some complications and he took great care of me. His assistant Genevieve is awesome in her own right. Her work is a master class on how to effectively connect Doctor and patient. We shared pics and text messages during my complications, so I was able to get doctors help and support within minutes. Long story short Dr Tepper and his team "rock".
This was my first plastic surgery experience (upper eyelid lift and undereye bag removal), so I was excited and nervous. I knew I was in great hands because I've seen the results of Dr. Tepper's work on my sister and girlfriend - both look amazing! I had lots of questions prior to surgery - Dr Tepper and his wonderful office staff answered all of them. Dr. Tepper routinely followed-up with me post-surgery to see how I was doing. I could not have asked for a more caring and pleasant experience...and I am thrilled with the results! Thank you Dr. Tepper!
Dr. Oren Tepper changed my life. I had been insecure about the wideness and bump on my nose for years, and finally decided it was time to change that. I was definitely a little nervous because I had never had plastic surgery, but he walked me through all the steps and showed me a 3D model of my before and after nose to ensure I was satisfied with the results. Leading up to the surgery I had a few check ups to make sure we were both on the same page. It was the easiest experience ever! I was in little to no pain and barely had any bruising or swelling. By day 5 post operation I had my cast off and felt almost 100%. I now feel so confident because of Dr. Oren Tepper, and no one can tell that I received a nose job because it looks so natural. He's the best in the business!
I was sent to him for reconstruction by another surgeon since the damage from the orginal doctor's facial surgeries were so significant. Eye damage, breathing issues, significant tissue removal, speaking and drooling. He couldn't care less about what happened to me and offered me a few names. When I texted and called back in tears for those names. He seemed to forget he promised to look at doctors who could help fix my breathing or other issues. They weren't in his "wheelhouse". He refused to even explain what had happened to me. I've been suffering for over a year. Of all the surgeons I've seen for help he is absolutely the coldest.
I had a neck lift with Dr. Oren Tepper in 2018. He wasn’t my original surgeon but my surgeon left the practice and I was reassigned to him. My nightmare began the day of surgery, I was asked to pay a few thousand dollars for liposuction because “Liz” his assistant forgot to submit the liposuction code to my insurance. I refused because it was a large cost at the last minute. Also, Liz scheduled me on a Friday, apparently neck lift patients must be seen within 24hrs but they aren’t open on Saturday’s so my procedure was completely cancelled due to both issues. I went home very upset since my spouse took off from work for my surgery. I kept receiving calls asking for the liposuction payment which I declined. Why I should I have to pay for her mistake? Dr. Tepper was so concerned about the liposuction fee that he suggested we do the neck lift without lipo at which point I said absolutely not! No lipo no surgery so I cancelled. I was called the next day and told the practice would eat the cost for the lipo and that I was rescheduled for that Tuesday. I am a weight loss patient and I was so desperate to get rid of my Turkey neck that I ignored all of the red flags!!! I never saw him again after surgery until 2yrs later! I saw a Nurse Practitioner yet I kept asking to see him because I had issues with my neck lift, ears, scars and etc. My right ear lobe was open for almost a year but they wouldn’t do anything about it so I was constantly scared of catching an infection. My scars hurt from possible nerve damage. My face had a deep hole which caused asymmetry and just made me feel and look an overall MESS! I kept complaining but they wouldn’t let me see him. Finally 2yrs later he sees me and tells me I look great, you will see my pictures, I did NOT look great! He also had me consult with his higher up, who also said I look great. I left that office in tears because I looked horrible and this was clearly a cover up. I tried to get him to fix it but he refused and left me this way! I’m sure because I was a Medicaid patient but maybe don’t take Medicaid patients if you can’t be bothered with them afterwards? My insurance paid 47K for this procedure yet he couldn’t be bothered to help with the Cobra Neck deformity he caused. A good Surgeon would have tried to fix the problem, not lie to the patients face and make her feel like she’s delusional. When I opened up an investigation thru my insurance he lied and told them he referred me to another surgeon and that he offered to fix it, it took me forever to get my insurance to cover the revision because they kept lying. My neck looked so bad, it was fatter on one side and very noticeable, he left tons of fat behind and took too much from other sides which caused the asymmetry. My ears hurt so bad where the scars were. I finally found another surgeon who recently redid my neck and ears but it’s a long and painful road to recovery. I hear this Man has now opened up his own surgical center. I truly hope he has malpractice insurance because he’s going to need it! I waited 3yrs to post this, I am in bed recuperating from surgery less than a week ago and in a lot of pain but grateful I finally found a good surgeon. The moral of the story isn’t that Oren Tepper is a horrible surgeon, more so the fact that he won’t own or fix his mistakes. I just wanted him to fix it and he just wanted more cash in his pocket to fix what he damaged! Hippocratic Oath?!? Dr. Oren Tepper clearly doesn’t care about that!
I would suggest taping or using a customized splint following surgery. Check out products made by Mirrorme3d.These can help offer protection as things heal
The concerns that you raise may be addressable by an upper lip lift. This is a procedure that elevates the lip, shortens the distance from the nose to the lip (philtrum), and can roll the lip up slightly so that it is more voluminous.
