Hello. I wanted to get rid of the small jowls and undefined jawline I was beginning to see, especially under the left side of my face. I also had fat under the neck . Dr Galitz is an absolute sweetheart and the staff is very caring. They were extremely organized and efficient. What I liked the best was the attention was focused on me, not like so many of the factory surgery places where you are a number. I only wrote I'm unsure if it was worth it because I'm only 3 days out
I wanted to thank the ladies that posted their dermal fat grafting to their líps in realself. I am very satisfied with my decision to go forward. Dr Galitz is a very humble, polite and kind surgeon. He will make you feel protected and in good hands. Ms. Lili, Karen and Gaby are like him, courteous and very dedicated to their customers. I was very nervous because I didn't want to feel any pain or even discomfort and they assured me that I will be almost sleeping during the procedure

My New Face
I wanted to start my story at day one of recovery .. which is today. I’m going to be very thorough for others who have questions that may not have been answered in other reviews. I began my search about 2 years ago for a facelift surgeon. I started near where I live in Maine. I had a consultation with a nice doctor but there was something that made me not want to choose him so I kept thinking about it. I think it was because his revisions weren’t aggressive enough. I didn’t want

Dermal Fat Grafting to the Lips
Don’t waste your money with Permalip (No different from your regular lips). Don’t waste your money with fat injections (They don’t last). Dermal graft is the way to go! It’s permanent.....Surgery went well. I’m in love with my results so far. Top and bottom lip done. It’s going on 4 weeks now...Recovery was BRUTAL. Extremely painful! The stitches were the most annoying. Ok, so let me give you a run down. I drove myself to Miami. I live 3.5 hours away. Stayed in a room the night

Facelift and Browlift with Dr. Galitz
Dr. Galitz operated my eyes, upper and lower in August, 2018. This year I went back to receive additional treatment with Botox, and we discussed a facelift and browlift as these were my concerns. I was quoted $7000 for both procedures. Dr. Galitz utilizes local anesthesia with the option of a cocktail of valium and xanaz, which I declined. Surgery day was October 10, 2019, I am now 3 days post op. It is beginning to heal, and while I am swollen and bruised under my eyes, I do

Fantastic Experience with Dr. Galitz!!!
Dr. Galitz performed my eyelid surgery (Blepharoplasty) on August 21, 2018. I found Dr. Galitz through Real Self, and had a consultation. He explained everything to me, including that he used local anesthesia and a cocktail to relax. I chose only the local anesthesia, as I do not like any sedation. The surgery was a pleasure to have, so easy. No pain at all after surgery, I went home and had an ice mask, which helped a great deal. I went to work on the computer the same day,
I started to hate my permalip implants. (You can read more about that in my other reviews.) So I started looking for a more natural, yet permanent, option for lip enhancement. I did NOT get the procedure where they “lipo” fat from another area and then “inject” it into your lips as I’ve heard that method can have very unreliable results. My procedure involved taking a strip of dermis (with the epidermis removed and a little layer of fat still attached to it) from my lower abdomen
Richard Galitz, MD, FACS, is an expert in facial plastic & reconstructive surgery and plastic surgery-head & neck. I rate Dr. Galitz and his staff five stars based on the overall professionalism of the office staff, care and attentiveness provided by Dr. Galitz, and staff throughout the entire pre and post-surgical process, his years of experience and artistic talent, and most of all, the exquisite result I received were far beyond expectations. I highly recommend Dr.
I found Dr. Galitz here on Real Self. I needed a revision rhinoplasty for a bump that had formed on the tip of my nose from a cartilage graft. I had consulted with several other doctors previously and was told I'll need general anesthesia, ear cartilage, fascia, and a full open rhinoplasty. I wasn't prepared to go through all that for a small bump so I kept delaying it. One day I found a post by Dr. Galitz saying he can treat this kind of problem through a closed approach under
Dr Galitz is a wonderful Doctor with the utmost integrity. I would highly recommend him. He will go out his way to make sure you have the best results possible. Unlike most doctors he will give you his cell phone and will come in on his day off to see you if need be.
