Steven Holzman, MD

I had the best experience with Dr. Holzman and all of his staff, especially nurse Crystal. I read stellar reviews online, which is why I decided to go to Dr. Holzman! My procedure was 2 months ago, and I am amazed by the results. Crystal helped me through two submission to insurance and made the whole process a breeze. I felt comfortable and confident going into the surgery, and loved that I didn’t have to have drains inserted for recovery. I can’t recommend Dr. Holzman and his staff enough!

I had the best experience Dr. Holzman! He was very professional and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. He really listened to what I wanted and, not only met, but exceeded all of my expectations. If you’re looking to get a breast reduction in Austin or surrounding areas, I highly recommend Dr. Holzman!

Dr Holzman is amazing! I was having lots of back problems and have been to Pysical therapy for several months but only got minimal relief. My PCP recommenced him and after a few PS consultations, my husband and I decided on Dr. Holzman. He made me feel very comfortable and he was confident that a BR would take care of my back issues. OMG... he was right! He explained the process in great detail and was very confident with how my breast will look like (but not guaranteeing an exact size). I really like his honesty and confidence His nurse and staff is just as phenomenal. From the moment I walked in to my latest visit, they are very attentive and made me feel like I was the only one there and never felt rushed. I am so happy with my results and very excited that I didn’t have any complications. Being diabetic was one of my biggest fears about healing but it all went extremely well. Dr. H. and his staff are very friendly, courteous, down to earth and professional. So Excited about my decision to go with Dr Holzman.

I cannot say enough positive things about Dr. Holzman. I have lost 160lbs with weight loss surgery. He was one of three doctors recommended to me by my surgeon for removal of excess skin. He performed a circumferential abdominoplasty with fleur-de-lis and a brachioplasty on me. The results have been incredible and the after care I received was above and beyond expectation. I have one or two more procedures to complete my skin removal and will be continuing my journey with Dr. Holzman. He is a high quality surgeon with humorous bedside manner. His nurse Crystal is beyond compare and his office staff is a delight. He has made a huge procedure a much easier undertaking. I highly recommend!

Very professional, understanding, and helpful. He backs up his work and will provide reasonable continuing care, at no extra cost. Prices are reasonable and he has the experience you want, without being closed-minded. He makes sure that you are satisfied with everything and offers assistance with more than you would ever imagine.

I loved my experience with Dr. Holzman and his staff. I needed two cysts removed, and after having other cysts removed that resulted in hypertrophic scars, I was a little nervous, especially since one was on my face. Dr. Holzman was patient with all of my questions, was attentive and meticulous during the procedure, and left me with the tiniest scars imaginable. I am beyond pleased with the results and would recommend Dr. Holzman and his staff for any plastic surgery needs! My only regret is not going to him sooner!

My peak weight was 412. I'm currently 310. I have had no success losing weight. My goal weight for me is 275. So I'm in that 15% zoneI have a lot of muscle mass and I carry fat pockets on my flanks, lower abs, and lateral chest. Those 3 regions seem to have never shrunk in my 100 pound loss adventure.
In my mind if I need another surgery then that means I'll be less than 270 and I'm fine with that.

At 10 pm I am 4 hours post op. Procedure took about 6 hours total. Dr said he was really happy with the outcome of his work. They suctioned 1000 cc combined and removed 11lb of tissue.

I feel good as can be expected. Dr tied me up like a corset so the Abs are really sore. I have a catheter in and that isn't comfortable at all. I go back for post op visit on Friday the 18th. Pain level 1-10 is 8 on abs, 4 on the cut line and 4 on my lipo incisions. Basically the abs feels like I just did 10 sets of of 100 abs and it's the day after type of discomfort. I will keep u guys posted. I'm in a compression garment of course and compression vest so nothing to really see.

9 months post op. I am still numb in belly button in a 4" diameter

10 months post op. Dr agreed to fix the incision line at no charge.

I am 50+ years old and was in need of this surgery for several years before I finally decided to have it done. Of course surgery is never pleasant, but I was given great post-surgical instructions and sufficient pain medication. I was out of work for two weeks. I am now 4 months post-op and my results are nothing less than incredible. My breasts are beautiful, feel natural, and the scars are almost gone.

I've been seeing Dr. H for over a year (various procedures). He has always been incredibly kind, honest, and humorous. I chose him to do my 360TT, breast aug/lift and vertical thighplasty after consulting with a few other surgeons. He has never once rushed me or disregarded my opinions and/or questions. I have always genuinely looked forward to post op visits, and he has always made me feel really good about myself. I had been through pregnancy and losing over 130 pounds before I went to Dr. H to "fix" me, and I didn't think it was possible for someone to someone to actually make me feel good about my pre-operative body, but he was able to do that. I have recommended him to anyone who has expressed a desire for plastic surgery. The work he did on my body is awesome, and I have more confidence than I've ever had in my life.

I have been overweight my whole life. I lost 115 pounds and so decided to have an arm lift. I consulted with 2 doctors in Austin, TX. Both seemed good but I decided on Steve Holzman. He did a great job. He spent time with me whenever I have questions. His staff was caring and down to earth.

My scar is already getting really flat (1 month after surgery). He removed around 3.5 inches off each arm. This is me measuring with a sewing measuring tape at home. Swelling will continue to go down for 2 more months according to Dr Holzman.
