Richard J. Restifo, MD

I was refered by someone I trust to Dr Restifo., My experience was perfect , from start to finish. Dr Restifo was very honest with me about what could be done, as I was a patient that needed to remove 30 year old implants that were banned in the 1990s, and I am so grateful to him for being an amazing surgeon because not only am I healthier THE RESULT LOOKS GREAT!!! I expressed that I wanted a fuller chest area but not large and that it was important to me that they look natural , the result was Better than I could have ever imagined , Dr Restifo knew exactly what to do within 15 minutes of the consultation and he gave me real answers and he was very correct with his plan to improve my health and the appearance is beautiful I can’t say enough about him he is an incredible surgeon !! I couldn’t be happier and I’m so glad I found him !!! I had an explant , new implants , a lift and an internal bra , they look so natural and feel natural and are perfect in my opinion so thank you for making my life so much better I feel great !

Dr.Restifo and his entire team were professional and made the process of scheduling and performing my surgery seamless. Rachel helped to reschedule my date two times due to some work conflicts and Dr.Restifo’s calm nature and experience helped me to make the best decision for my revision surgery. Jackie was responsive to my many questions before and after the surgery, as well. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone considering surgery.

I had an incredible experience with Dr. Restifo and his team for my Breast Implant Illness surgery. From day one, I felt truly heard and supported. Dr. Restifo is not only a highly skilled surgeon but also deeply compassionate. He explained everything clearly and helped me feel completely at ease.

The care from his staff was just as exceptional. Nurse Jackie was the absolute sweetest, and Rachel, the patient care liaison, was consistently kind, helpful, and encouraging throughout the entire process.

My recovery has gone beautifully, and I feel so much better — both physically and emotionally. I’m beyond grateful for the level of care I received. If you’re looking for a surgeon who truly cares, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Restifo and his amazing team.

I had an excellent experience with Dr. Restifo and his team. From the beginning, I felt like I was in good hands. Every step of the process was handled with professionalism, compassion and definitely attention to detail. The support team created a calm and reassuring environment both before and after the surgery. I never felt rushed and all of my questions were taken seriously. After the surgery, I was especially impressed by how responsive and accessible everyone was. It was easy to reach Dr. Restifo's nurse via email and she always responded the same day. It was also easy to schedule follow up appointments when necessary. I am more than happy with my results and that I chose Dr. Restifo. My only regret is that I did not do it sooner!!

Absolutely, hands down the best decision I made. The office of Drl Restifo made me feel very welcome. They were professional and made me feel at ease. Dr. Restifo is a top notch surgeon. I knew I was in the right place with the best team and not once had any doubts. After the surgery, I had my follow up visits and was very pleased with the results. I had a breast augmentation on one side to even things out.

I set up a consultation with Dr. Restifo because his website had the best before/after pics for what my goals were. During the consult, he was very kind and professional, and very thorough as he answered all my questions. His team was friendly and just as thorough as they went over the pricing, pre op, and scheduling details. The surgery went well, and healing was easy- the hardest part was sticking to the weight restrictions because I felt fine after a couple days. After 2 months, incisions are barely visible because of his placement and the recommended scar treatment (just a topical/over the counter). I absolutely love my results and would definitely recommend Dr. Restifo and his team.

I had a breast lift and augmentation with Dr. Restifo in January and I am SO happy with my results! The whole experience was great. I kept having to switch my surgery date and Rachel from the office was warm and accommodating. I ended up having 3 consultations because I would forget questions I wanted to ask or I would come up with more questions after. And I just wanted to be 100% sure I was communicating well and that he understood what I was going for. Each time, Dr. R. was so nice. I never felt rushed or like I was being high maintenance. He's really kind, has a gentle vibe, and a quiet confidence that lets you know you're in good hands. Jackie was also awesome - she's super knowledgable and was very responsive to my questions post-op. I'm 53 years old and for the first time ever I LOVE my boobs! I'd recommend him in a heartbeat.

I had my breast implants removed by Dr.Restifo and I am very satisfied with the results.He did a amazing job,very professional,explained all about my procedure and answers all my questions and concerns.I highly recommended Dr.Restifo,amazing professional!

I first met Dr Restifo in 2012 (or so) for a breast augmentation. I did a lot of research and compared before and after photos of the surround area surgeons. Of all surgeons I found Dr Restifos work to be the best. I went ahead and scheduled a consultation. The day of the consultation I scheduled my surgery because I was convinced he was the right surgeon. I originally wanted to do an augmentation through an underarm incision and he told me the pros and cons of doing so and I'm glad I went with his suggestion of not going that way because I am extremely pleased with the outcome. I have now seen an underarm augmentation and my friend was not happy with her surgeon. Fast forward to today (2025) I went back to Dr Restifo for an abdominoplasty. I trust his work and judgement so much so that I was willing to drive if I had to from another state. I am a little over 2 months post-op and I am extremely satisfied with results so far. I can honestly say I had no pain, minimal swelling, and felt like I was back to myself around week 5. This might not be common for others but it just worked out perfectly for me. I tell everyone to go to Dr Restifo. The belly button looks perfect and my incision is really straight and thin. If I ever needed another surgery I would go back to Dr Restifo again.

I recently had a mommy makeover with Dr. Restifo and couldn’t be happier with my results so far, just two months post-op. From the very beginning, Dr. Restifo and his team were incredibly thorough, answering all of my questions before, during, and after surgery. Their care and commitment to patient wellbeing are evident in every interaction.

My breast augmentation looks completely natural—perfectly sized for my frame, beautifully balanced, and with minimal scarring. My tummy tuck has also healed exceptionally well, with the scar already starting to fade. Most importantly, my confidence has returned to where it was before having children. I also had severe diastasis recti (abdominal muscle separation), which Dr. Restifo repaired successfully. Thanks to that, by week four I felt like myself again—able to travel and go about daily activities without discomfort.

Dr. Restifo’s team is truly outstanding. Both pre-op and post-op care were handled with professionalism, intelligence, and genuine compassion. Rachel and Nurse Jackie, in particular, are amazing and complement Dr. Restifo’s practice perfectly. Dr. Restifo listens attentively, answers honestly and directly, and is a true master of his craft. My surgery lasted around 3.5 to 4 hours, exactly as planned, and the post op was also exactly as described. Best of all the results are already very promising.

I’m so excited to see the final outcome at the six-month mark!
