In June 2023, I had an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) and Liposuction with Dr. Stephen Greenberg at the Woodbury office in Long Island . It was honestly the best decision I ever made. After two children and weight loss, my tummy was the area I was most insecure about. Words can’t describe how amazing I look and feel now. Dr. Greenberg and his entire staff are exceptionally knowledgeable, experienced and patient. The entire process from my initial consultation to my most recent follow up visit, has been a dream. If you’re on the fence or still deciding, please don’t hesitate because Dr. Greenberg is PHENOMENAL. He was the only surgeon I consulted with and after one visit I decided to book my surgery because of the level of comfort I felt. Not only is Dr. Greenberg incredibly talented but he’s very patient and informed me thoroughly on what I wanted to get done. I admire the level of dedication he has to his patients. Every time I saw Dr. Greenberg, he did his absolute best to make me feel comfortable and answer all of my questions. After my surgery, I opted for the over night stay; which was amazing. My aftercare nurse was Melissa and she was beyond caring and attentive. My first night after surgery, I was able to get up , walk around and use the restroom multiple times. My recovery has been better than I imagined. My PA is Meryl and she is the epitome of patience and politeness.I love seeing her for my follow up visits because she is so warm and welcoming. It’s been 11 weeks since my surgery and I love my results. Every time I look in the mirror, I’m still in disbelief because I look amazing but most of all I feel Amazing. I feel very fortunate that Dr. Greenberg performed my surgery and I cannot thank him enough because he gave me “my best self”
I'm a mother of four. So after 4 c-sections weight gain and loss; my belly was just never the same. I had so much extra skin it was demoralizing trying in clothes that fit and covered my mom pooch. Nothing I did from diet and exercise work - and I could just rip my ears off if one more person said to me "you just need to work out and it'll go away.". Loose skin doesn't go away and quite honestly I was fed up. I wasn't having anymore children and I felt at this point in my life I was ready for the change and I couldn't be happier. Honestly, I wish I would have done it sooner. The confidence that has come back to my life was worth every minute of discomfort and every cent paid. Dr Greenberg and his staff are amazing. They made the process so effortless and you didn't feel pressured to make any decisions right in the moment. I had consulted with other doctors and they were charging exorbitantly high prices and trying to talk you into multiple procedures at once which I didn't want to do. After my consultation, I book the next day, and was on the table within a month. My surgery was May 2023 and now I'm almost 3 months post op and I'm in awe. I could cry. My follow up care was overseen by the PA Meryl and let me tell you she is FANTASTIC. I had a question at 9pm at night - so I emailed her with photos. I wasn't expecting an answer until the next day and 3 minutes later, she replied and eased my fears. If your on the fence - just do it.
I have fluctuated for over 20 years in weight and have 3 kids - 16,9, and 7 . Once I was done breastfeeding last chid , I went to Dr Greenberg for breast implants and lift. I didn't do a journey with that , even though i still can. I worked out every day and was down to goal weight doing good and then my Mom died, it was horrible watching her suffer for two years and I suffered tremendously because of it , so naturally I ate and ate and stopped working out . I couldn't look in the mirror anymore as just really didn't give a poop . One day recently I just woke up and said no more , stop the depression , get your A$$ out of this funk, , your kids are watching . So I called Dr Greenberg again because he's the only one my husband ad I trust. He has all the credentials I wanted and more ... It was a easy decision for me as he did a great on with my breast implant / lift.. I'm now 7 days post OP on my tummy tuck and liposuction on legs with cellulase . First pic is first day still in his office to the next day at home, last is today. My legs are really bruised and inner thighs swollen , I'm trying to figure out how to start my journey on here . I'm not the tech savvy . Stacy G Updated on 9 Mar 2023: Went to get second tube out by Meryl today, Sara took out first one in Southampton office . All his staff are always wonderful . I especially love Sara . He doesn’t have a turnaround with staff like some doctor offices do, so he must treat them good. (Plus for me ) I Was in and out under 20 minutes. They put a full body compression on me and answered my many questions lol. I go back in two weeks . I’m swelling in legs from the lipo and cellulaze , but I’ve massaged them with arnica oil as it’s helped it so much . Everyday my size is going down so super happy about that. My husband said he notices it a lot. It will take 3-6 months for total transformation to form , with the massages and compression from now on , will help with it contouring my shape. Fingers crossed ! I will keep updating with pics since I now know how now. Updated on 19 Mar 2023: On 19 day of recovery. I go back to Dr. Greenberg Tuesday the 21st for check up. Hope everything is ok. I have some wrinkles forming , I researched and it’s common and smooths out within weeks . Im eating healthy and will jog/ lift weights when I’m clear so I’m not too worried about them or my hips . I’m itching like crazy. I’m ready to be out of the body suit lol compression thing and start waist training . I’m standing straight finally and everyday noticing my legs are getting smaller and less cellulite . Super happy about that. I think my scar is healing nicely I’ve been using scar guard on it since second week . Updated on 1 Apr 2023: I haven’t posted in a while because everyday is changing for the better , my legs get smaller everyday (in the inner, outer thigh , (I got cellulaze and lipo) ( now I wish I had a picture, but I was just so disgusted with myself I was pushing 185 -190 at least) I know diet and / or exercise could not get rid of, Ive had these lumps foreverrrre since kids , my son is 17 so and when I turned my leg outward , it’s hard to explain, but it was gross and it’s flattening out everyday , I can’t wait because they say your body changes everyday all the way up 4- 6 months . I am at ONE month. ????. And it’s drastically changed , I can’t wait . ( I massage my scar and legs every night - lymphatic drainage ,,, my cellulite is Lessening and my curves are forming the way I was before 3 kids , , I’m 42 now . I’m getting my confidence back . I was concerned about one thing , no two , I had some vertical pleating and dog ears on both sides , but I’m a good researcher and all the research on here (thank you ladies ,that’s why I’m giving back ) It’s up to you now to make the body you want. After surgery your doctor does what you want but it is in both of everyone’s interest to follow a low-carb diet , drink plenty of water, exercise when cleared by doctor … I don’t eat a lot of salt. I suggest rubbing any hard spots as well , (the dog ears ) some definitely have to have a revision but I don’t think that’s my case. I believe he did the scar this way for a reason , i trust Him, my entire scar where the pleating was, I just keep babying it every night. Its getting much better everyday . I go in a circle and rub them out and then I’m doing lymphatic drainage massages by Myself, I looked them up on YouTube. I’m doing them myself, I bought Arnica gel , arnica cream , I have scar guard and scar tape.. I have been rubbing my vagina area, I guess i call it “Fupa “ , that’s where I had the two drains in , that is where it is most swollen still after a month, it is where he came together to sow and down there my pleates are going away . Please take time every day to rub those areas where they worked on you , you have to give them attention. These doctors are not God. I have definitely been on a low low carb diet since I’ve had this. They do their job , now it’s up to us to get the finished product, you just can’t eat pasta every night and never work out and blame them , just do your part and than at least you can say you did… …, I have been massaging my dog ears on hips as suggested. I can’t wait, with running and my OG workouts , I’m sure they’ll be gone!!!! . I’m not cleared yet , Im assuming Tuesday when my next follow up is . I do have to say Though , (trying to be positive) i think the pleates on scar makes me look more curvy to be honest. . I’ve always had curves and then I lost myself for a long time when my mom died , and Dr Greenberg has gotten my confidence back. I owe him at least the review he deserves. I really do trust Dr. Greenberg , obviously with my life . he’s done surgery on me before , breast augmentation and lift, so he knows my body . I guess you can say I’m forming the body by DR . Stephen T Greenberg . Ps- I was very heavy before Sincerely, A mother who’s getting her confidence back , Best of luck, Stacy Updated on 19 Apr 2023: I’m so thankful my legs look good after cellulaze Soooo many woman I think it’s at least 80-90% have bad experience with cellulaze. I found all this out AFTER my procedure . I wouldn’t have done it honestly . Obviously it’s the doctor you choose . (Board certified) but Also how your body handles it ,and if you Give it attention afterward. I researched many hours after ???? my surgery … looking at worsening outcomes than before procedure and they spend so much money trying to do fat transfers and other surgeries to fix the dimples and holes into her legs . I also had lipo done too. Not sure which one. But if I did alone , I do not think I would have gotten same results. I only wore the compression 4 weeks, couldn’t take it anymore . And lymphatic massages everyday still , I massage my legs upward in a circle inward with cellulite oil (think that’s helping too ) along with the massage tools and dry brushing and it’s working !! I do this to even out skin, if you will smooth my inner and outer thighs because I feel hard pockets and see a little dent , I guess uneven ; I’m not one to complain , at least to him because is finished product is on point . My husband won’t let me see anyone else anyway because he’s seen Dr. Greenbergs work on me and then some others and he’s the best for me ..So because all I saw on here were bad results form cellulase I wanted to share about that besides tummy tuck. I recommend doing liposuction with the cellulase , I have my confidence back and everything good is falling into place because of it . I cant thank them enough. I don’t even have a before of my legs through all these years because it was gross and knew people who stare . .. I was so ashamed .honesty surprised and SO grateful I’m not a bad case . Some woman have gone down dark places after botched legs from liposuction and especially cellulase . Sad . So I don’t know if it’s Truly just the doctor in the outcome or our body type , genes etc. so thankful I have worked out my whole life almost everyday and the cellulaze , inner and outer thighs lipod and of course the tummy tuck he fixed my hernia and diastases. Now it looks like what i should of with all the years of working out . I will post a pic of what they looked like , closest to it but of someone else , I don’t have any ,,, , but again I’m excited because I’m only 7 weeks and have 2-3 more months to see final results . My legs have NEVER had this little of cellulite , to me , since elementary school . Everyday they are smoothing out more and more … again only 7 weeks . I could ugly cry being overjoyed… I got my life back . I owe it all to Dr. Greenberg and Sarah , and his whole staff. Not one complaint from me and he’s done 5 surgeries on me first being 2016… . ????????.
It was great from the consultation to the actual procedure . It’s only be a few days but i can already see how amazing the lift and impants turned out . Totally recommend Breast loss volume and i wanted perky full breast i went from 34b to 385cc and I am 5’1 Thank you team Dr Greenberg
I've been coming to Dr.Greenberg for restalyne kyss lip injections for the past year. He is delicate and precise. He really listens to what look/appearance you want to achieve and answers any questions, no matter how minuscule. Always friendly and kind. He has worked with me to achieve my desired shape and volume, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Wonderful Doctor, staff, and office. I always look forward to visiting. I'm currently on my 5th vile since last August. Posting a before and after photo (before is the top and after is the bottom)
After 4 big babies, 4 c sections, 3 other abdominal surgeries, and a 40lb weight loss, my stomach was an absolute wreck. I scheduled consultations with several plastic surgeons and ultimately decided Dr. Greenberg was the one for me. The process of scheduling and paying was easy and painless. They talked me through every aspect of what was going to happen and answered all of my questions. And I'm thrilled with my results! I went in hoping for "better" and ended up ecstatic with how flat my stomach is and how I finally look like I work out as much as I do. Dr. Greenberg gave me back my confidence and my waistline by taking away all that skin and fixing my diastasis recti! I'm so thankful!
My experience with Dr. Greenberg and his staff is absolutely delightful! I had a breast lift with implants on 6/21/2021, my first post-op visit the very next day, and I go back tomorrow for my 2nd post-op visit. In my initial consultation he was very specific in telling me what he could do to meet my expectations. My questions were directly answered. Since I'm only a week out of surgery I still have a long way to go in the healing and fluffing/dropping process but I'm very happy with Dr. Greenberg and his staff and definitely highly recommend him, not just for breast implants but almost any kind of body work...face-lifts, body-lifts, skin care! Why go anyplace else?
Choice Dr. Greenberg because I felt comfortable after meeting him. I loved the pictures of all the work he has done. He has a great staff who is always available and answer any questions. I had a breast reduction from DD to C with small implants to keep them up. I am doing so well and it is only day 5. I followed all directions carefully.
Post-op day 1 after breast reduction/lift with Dr. Stephen Greenberg in Woodbury NY. Let me say that I'm so impressed with the outcome of my surgery thus far. The staff was professional, prompt, and friendly. The anesthesiologist, pre/post nurses were all so attentive and kind. Dr. Greenberg is a gem and his bedside manner is awesome. The office is clean and the decor is fit for a diva/queen. But most important, my breast look amazing and I can't believe I have no pain. Let me clarify, there is mild discomfort when I bend to put on my shoes but if I'm resting in the recliner on my laptop there is no pain. Today I'm taking extra-strength Tylenol instead of Percocet. I was referred to Dr. Greenberg by a friend and now I'm passing this blessing on to you. You won't be disappointed. As my husband always says " you get what you pay for". Greenberg plastic surgery is worth every penny.
My experience was amazing! Everything was great the office is beautiful, clean. The staff is nice and helpful. De Greenberg is amazing! My tummy tuck and recovery was perfect! The nurse Jennifer did an amazing job after post op. Everything from day 1, from start to finish was great!
Thank you for your question. This particular procedure is a relatively safe procedure to have done. Complications are extremely low and it's a rather quick procedure to be done. I would suggest speaking with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to discuss your options and concerns. Best of luck to you.
Thank you for your question. Looking at the photos you have provided I would suggest a full tummy tuck. This will allow your Surgeon to tighten up the abdominal wall muscles that have stretched out after having the kids and remove the extra skin. This will give you the best results one can give. I would suggest seeing a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in person to evaluate you and discuss your options. Best of luck to you.
Thank you for your question. Yes, you will be able to resume your intense abdominal workout. I always tell my patients 4-6 weeks after surgery they can resume but they have to start slow. I typically find by 8 weeks patients are more or less back to their normal exercise routine. I would speak with your Surgeon to discuss their recommendations. Best of luck.
Thank you for your question and congratulations on the weight loss. Looking at the photos you have provided I would agree that you are a better candidate for a tummy tuck procedure. This will allow your Surgeon to tighten up the abdominal wall muscle, remove the extra skin and get you as flat as one can. It is a bigger surgery and requires some additional down time but it is a very safe procedure. I would suggest speaking with your Surgeon ahead of surgery to answer and of your questions and to help ease your concerns. Best of luck to you.
Thank you for your question. Looking at the photo you have provided I believe you are a great candidate for flank and love handles liposuction. I see no reason to have to separate the procedures. It will reduce you down a few inches and just help with better shape. I would suggest speaking with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in person to evaluate you and discuss your options. Best of luck to you.
