My healing was fast, my check-ins were breezy and uncomplicated, and my results are impressive

I highly recommend Dr. Baxter as a skilled surgeon who keeps up with best practices and whose personality puts patients at ease. He is very calm and kind, he answered all my questions and concerns in our first meeting, clearly explained my options, supporting his advice with best practice research. There are many approaches to brow lifts and he explained that over the years he became less impressed with endoscopic lifts - they seemed not to last long enough. For my highly lined,

Cannot wait for when I am healed

I had such a wonderful positive experience at Phase Plastic Surgery from the day I called for a consult all the way to my surgery day. My 9 year old implants placed by a different surgeon were both ruptured, and I had an animation deformity. The staff was always so attentive and kind. I felt extremely confident in Dr. Baxter’s plan for me and he is very thorough. The nurses and especially the anesthesiologist were so reassuring and I truly feel like they care about the patients.

Neck lift and upper blepharoplasty - mostly happy with my results

I am 5 months post op.I want to say my overall experience was good. I am mostly happy with my results. I think anytime you have a surgery, it is a risk. When I went in for my pre-op appointment, the staff was so kind and friendly. The nurse was very sweet too. The overall wait was short. Dr. Baxter came in and I did feel a bit rushed in my questions I had. I did feel confident though in his ability to do my surgery. The day of surgery went very well. I was a bit nervous and

Response from Dr. Richard Baxter, MDThank you so much for taking the time to share your experience. We do provide detailed written instructions for postoperative care at the pre-op visit, and our policy is that the recovery room nurse reviews aftercare instructions with the patient's caregiver before discharge. We also try to confirm every post-op appointment in advance. Glad you are happy with your results!

I Had a Wonderful Experience with Dr Baxter.

Dr Baxter was my initial Dr for my breast augmentation in 2008. Throughout the years I considered going bigger and had a couple consults with him and he was always caring and attentive, I decided to wait to change them. I came in for a complementary ultrasound in 2023 after seeing and feeling some changes in my breasts and suspecting a rupture which be confirmed. I decided to exchange my 420 mod profile silicone implants for 575 high profile silicone implants. Dr baxter was very

This gave an emotional boost to my self-esteem and psyche

I recently had a breast lift and a bit of liposuction done by Dr. R.Baxter. What I'm sure Dr. Baxter is unaware of, is how difficult and painful 2021 was for me. What I would like him to know, is that he has given me an emotional an heartfelt boost to my self-esteem and psyche. Along with some fat injections, a mass dose of confidence flowed in as well. I have a renewed sense of adventure, I am now far more comfortable dipping my toes into the dating pool and I am by far more

Worth Flying From CA - Artist w/Great Bedside Manner

I am going to write this review of my breast augmentation journey with Dr Baxter from the get go. HELPFUL FACTS: I’m black between 45-54; lost 40+ lbs which resulted in breast volume loss; athletic buildCONSULT: I actually found Dr Baxter doing research about animation deformity (AD). I had two other consults prior and didn’t really like the answers about AD. I read how he addressed this with a split muscle technique. I was blessed to come across his medical journal article (https://www.semanticscholar.or...

No More Animation Deformity!

I saw Dr. Baxter for a revision to a previous breast augmentation performed by another surgeon a year ago that had left me with an awful animation deformity. Even small movements caused my breasts to suck in and look so weird. Dr. Baxter and his staff assured me that he could fix it - and he did! I'm about a month out now and so happy with my decision. I feel much more confident in my skin - the way I had expected to feel after my initial procedure. The recovery protocol had me

Life changing breast revision - each week the results seem to be getting better and better

I went in for a breast revision after three years post my initial surgery with another doctor.. I am so happy with the results so far. Each week the results seem to be getting better and better. I went from sub muscular to subfacial with pocket repair, galaflex mesh, crescent lifts, and swapped my 335cc responsive implants for 365 soft touch implants. Thank you dr Baxter!

Happy and Confident

I had the privilege of seeing Dr Baxter for my breast augmentation with lift. Dr Baxter and his entire staff are so professional and comforting from beginning to end. I am so happy with my results. The recovery was so much easier than I ever had imagined it would be too. I believe it was so because of the way dr Baxter performs this procedure. I would 100% do this all over again.

6 Weeks Post Face/neck Lift and Breast Explantation/mastopexy

About 6 weeks ago, I had my face and neck lift, and a bilateral breast explantation with mastopexy. I had extensively researched plastic surgeons in my area and selected Dr. Baxter as my surgeon. From the moment I started this journey at Dr. Baxter's office, I was treated with respect, kindness, and professionalism. The office was following strict Covid protocols as expected. Everyone I came into contact with was great. My surgery went well - my anesthesia provider took great
