Steven Orten, MD

I had a face , Neck and eye Lift in October with Dr. Orten. He was recommended to me by Dr. Lyde a well known dermatologist!!! She told me he was the best. She was right!!!!
I cried happy tears when i saw what an amazing job he had done on my face ,neck and eyes. I look 25 years younger. The operation was pain less. He even gave me his cell in case i had any questions. He went over everything before the operation and really listened to me.... his office manager Tracy is so nice and there is not a question you can ask that they wont answer..... i feel like they are part of my family, that is how special they make you feel.....

From the very first consult visit with Dr Orten through the follow up six weeks after face/next lift I was a very pleased patient. He listened and addressed the concerns I felt about my aging face and crepey neck. I am 64. I have known for quite a while that I wanted to have a facelift. I needed courage and to find the right doctor. I interviewed seven surgeons in Dallas before picking Dr. Orten. In many offices it felt like a business with products and procedures being sold. With Dr Orten, it felt more caring and personal. I like it that he performs procedure in his office under local anesthesia instead of pricey hospital visit. We said a prayer together before he began. It was comforting and lovely. I look great, but very natural. My good friends tell me I look younger but they don’t suspect unless I tell them. I have more confidence and not only look, but feel younger.

OMG!!! I couldn't be happier!!! I cried tears of joy when I saw my before and after photos! My husband says I look 35. iIm 63. Admittedly, I only looked about 50 before surgery as I’ve worked as an esthetician for 18 years. I didn't realize how badly I needed it until I saw the huge improvement. This kind man is a genius!!! My husband has since had a partial neck lift and got exactly what he asked for, too! We're both thrilled!!!

Dr Orten is the most caring, kind, compassionate Doctor I have ever met. He and his staff make me feel like I am their best friend. My results have been amazing. He listened and did exactly what I ask. I have seen other patients and these women look great. He is the BEST!!! The pictures are only 6 days out. I went to my grandsons birthday party 2 days after my procedure. The pain was minimal.

Dr Orten and his staff were the best! Dr. Orten is a very caring and talented surgeon! I highly recommend him! I felt very comfortable and special and all of my questions were answered and my phone calls were returned promptly!

Decided to have a face lift, neck lift and eyelid surgery!!
SO happy with my results!!!! Interviewed serveral other doctor's in the area, and Dr. Orten seemed more interested in what I wanted, instead of what HE wanted to do. He spent a lot of time talking with me about my expectations, and results. I could NOT be happier!!!!!

See my other review. Doctor's skills were good. LL processes sucked. LL is out of business and thank you. The were guilty of false advertising. There is no way these process could be done in one hour and NO WAY you could go back to work after. You were drugged and had stitches and swelling and in pain. They should have been banned by the AMA and the Dallas County Medical Society. I am sorry for all of us who were taken in and treated like cattle instead of human beings with needs.

I had my lower face and neck done by {edited - doctor information appears at top of review}. He and the assistance, {edited}, were great as far as making me feel comfortable, and I really didn't feel a thing during the surgery. It definitely is longer than 1 hour (ask my husband who had to wait for me). Also, when I returned to work 4 days later, it was very noticeable that I had had something done, due to the swelling. I would take at least 2 weeks off to recover.

Now it hasn't been 2 months and I have noticed that my neck is getting loose again with skin, since the swelling has gone down. The sides of my face are still numb, though I was told to expect this for at least 3 months.

I don't know right now if I would do this again. My neck was the reason I did this in the first place (my grandson asked me what the hanging skin was). I am not wealthy, and had to finance this, so is it worth the money??? Only time will tell. But I am not encouraged by what I have now read through this site. It appears that I wasted my hard earned money, though I couldn't afford the $10,000 plus on a face lift done by a plastic surgeon. I wish there was some program out there that would help real people look better and in turn would make you feel better about yourself when you look into the mirrow. You can call me vain, but I hate looking winkled and old.
