Said Samra, MD

I have had 2 procedures done by Dr. Samra, Rhinoplasty in 2000 and breast augmentation this year. There aren't even words to describe how happy I am with every single thing about Dr. samra and his office.

Sr. said samra is a very talented, caring and kind Doctor. He has an excellent eye for catching potentially bad moles. I have had many removed. His expertise in this field is amazing. He has a wonder eye in spotting issue. He never removes anything unnecessarily. I actually paid him myself because he wasn't in my orders daughters insurance. That is how much I trust and value his experience. His staff of women are always kind. No matter how many times you call or ask a question they are never annoyed. I hope he stays in practice for a very long time. Everyone should have their moles checked and he is your doctor.

On Oct 27, 2016 I had my first SkinPen treatment at Juenesse Medical Spa / The Samra Group. I have been on a quest to find more natural anti-aging alternatives and since this procedure was highly recommended by Dr. Asaad Samra I decided to give it a try. I’ve had only pleasant experiences with Dr. Samra so I knew I could trust his advice and I am REALLY glad I did.

The idea behind the SkinPen is the microneedling causes trauma under the skin and during the healing process the skin produces collagen to heal itself – makes sense, right?
Numbing cream makes it completely tolerable and I experienced very little discomfort. The length of the needle is adjustable so the more you can tolerate the deeper they can go. The actual procedure takes about 20 minutes. I was VERY red after but it calmed down before bedtime. My friend saw my results and had it done 2 weeks later but due to her more olive complexion she was not as red.

Anyway, the next day I was fine. It was suggested I not wear makeup the next day but suprisingly enough I didn’t need it – I noticed an instant glow and by the third day my skin was actually radiant and I mean radiant!!
Now six weeks have gone by and I don’t see a need to do my annual filler injections…..so for those of you who are reluctant to do filler – this is for you. I am scheduled for #2 in January and I cant wait to see the results after that because I already see a significant difference in my frown and eye wrinkles and I am not sure if this is related but my breakouts are less since. My friend (mentioned above) has had 2 sesssions and now she sees very reduced fine lines.

The bonus of the Skinpen is they are able to go much closer to your eyes (where filler and botox may not be injected) so for those of you who are developing crows feet and under the eye wrinkles and sagging – this is for you too.
In closing I’d like to reiterate this procedure does what it claims to do (google SkinPen for all the details) and I HIGHLY recommend it. I have done eMatrix (more downtime) and various lasers (more painful) and did not get results like this. Since my results were so astonishing after session #1 I opted to buy a package at Jeunesse Med Spa and I love the flexibility of being able to use it at either of their two locations (Holmdel and Old Bridge).

A big thank you to Dr. Samra and his kind and courteous staff. Juenesse Medical Spa provides a relaxing spa like environment with medical grade quality services and everyone is very professional – and p.s. - they are always on time!

Second review to follow after my next session ?

Can't speak highly enough about Dr. Said Samra & his staff. Extremely comfortable in his care. A doctor that listens to his patients concerns, advises wisely, super conservative. Very knowledgable & professional. I trust him completely & highly recommend him for any procedure you're thinking of having done. Dr Samra never makes you feel like a bother. Always polite pleasant & professional. Always makes himself available to his patients. He's the best there is.

I could never have been so happy with having this procedure done. I do not know why it took me so long to do it. I was a 36 DDD and was reduced down to a 36 C. My posture has improved, my back feels 100lbs lighter. The procedure was quick and with minimal pain. My Doctor and his staff where fantastic they made the experience well worth it.

Pleasantly pleased with the comfort of the office and its staff for my first visit with any type of spa/plastic surgery office. Dr Samra is absolutely wonderful, knowledgable and helpful. Very satisified with the results. I plan on returning for other things in the future. Procedure was not as painful as expected. Minimal redness.

I suppose my collagen & elasticity production was not enough to work with. I saw improvement for a brief period of time but it reversed itself. I have no doubt this would work for some people, because I briefly saw it work for me. I was warned to be realistic with the potential results, but you always hope for the best possible outcome.
I'm 58 and had a full neck procedure. It wasn't uncomfortable or painful. I had some tightness & numbness for about 1 month, but nothing alarming.

At 22 I decided it was time to have breast augmentation. I had been disappointed by my breasts since my early teens. I was a 32b, but even at my young age they were never perky. At the time of my BA I was 5'5 and 108 pounds. (5 years, and 2 unsuccessful pregnancies later I have gained 20lbs) My goal was not to have large breasts, I simply wanted more fullness on top to achieve a perkier look. I truly did not want to be larger than a C cup. At the time I had a budding career as a artists model. I sat for figure drawing classes, posed for paintings and "artistic nude" photographs. I was making $$$ but was still self conscious about my breasts. I went for a consult with Dr. Said Samara at which time I explained exactly what I was looking for. He gave me 3 implant sizes to choose from 300 cc, 400 cc, and 500 cc. I asked if there was anything smaller. I was told that implants DID NOT come in sizes smaller than 300. I know now that this is 100% FALSE. I also asked about "tear drop, gummy bear implants" and was told that these do not exist. Also FALSE. He suggested the 500 cc and said if I went smaller I would be back for bigger implants. In hindsight I should have run out the door and never looked back. But at 22 I was naive and didn't know better.... I chose the 300 cc round silicone. ( I have no idea what profile it was never discussed) The day of my surgery I was extremely nervous. The nurses were rude and condescending. Again, I should have walked out the door. From the beginning I felt that my new breasts looked horrible. I felt like an alien. I knew something was off within the first few weeks. I had what I now know is called a double bubble in both breasts. When I went for my follow up I expressed my concerns and was told it was just swelling and would go away. About a month later I returned for another follow up and when I pointed out the deformity again was told that my breasts looked great and I was crazy. This is not an exageration, I was literally told how great I looked and that I was imagining things. I was offered no explanation and no revision surgery. Dr. Samara completely ignored the problem. The following months were extremely painful emotionally and I was very depressed. I hated my breasts and consequently the rest of my body because I was so unproportional. I felt like an idiot for spending so much money on something I now could not afford to fix. Today I have constant pain in my left breast. It is extremely difficult to find a comfortable position to sleep in. I was told by a revision specialist that my pectoral muscle in the left breast has actually ripped because of an overly aggressive pocket dissection. I was quoted $15k for revision. This surgery ruined my modeling career. I have not been able to work in the industry since my BA. Currently having issues uploading photos, will try again later.

Updated on 12 May 2016:

Hi everyone! My name is Shae and I'm 17 (turning 18 in September). I'm having rhinoplasty done this Wednesday the 14th. I've read SO many reviews on here and I thought it couldn't hurt to share my story.

I've been self conscious about my nose since before I could remember. Growing up, I'd always look in the mirror and raise my tip with my finger to picture how I would look with my perfect nose. In all honesty...I don't have a terrible nose to begin with. I've always been a decent looking girl. I have a slight bump in the middle and it hangs a bit low in the front. It's also a bit bulbous. So clearly my surgery is plainly for cosmetic reasons. But I've never been more content with a decision before. I just hope I won't take that back when I'm recovering!

Anyway...I'm moving into college on August 31st. So yes. It's about two and a half weeks after my surgery. Scary stuff. I also only told my best friend, my brother and my parents about my surgery. Lying to my other friends wasn't exactly my dream method of choice, but this is such a personal thing I didn't want any opinions getting in the way. But lying is no fun so that's been killing me. So far..I've done nothing to prepare for Wednesday. I honestly don't know where to start with preparation. Or if it's even necessary.

Any tips for preparing anyone??????
Thanks!!
