Best Experience!
My experience with Dr Liszka, along with Jenny and Liz, has been amazing. In 2/2025 I had an extended tummy tuck and breast lift. In 2/2026 I had a bra-line lift and breast augmentation. I’m pleased with my results and care I have received. I highly recommend Dr Liszka as he is well skilled and has incredible bedside manner. He came highly recommended. At 50 years old l wish I didn’t wait this long. Recovery was a breeze with very little discomfort. Dr Liszka and staff prepared

I am extremely satisfied with the outcome of my midface lift and my inverted nipple correction performed by Dr. Thomas Liszka at Ballentyne Plastic Surgery. The entire process from the consultation to the post op has exceeded my expectations. The doctor and his staff were very thorough in making sure I had all my questions answered. After informing the doctor what I was looking to achieve, he certainly met my expectations and more. I expected to have some bruising on my face

Awesome Job
Dr. Thomas G. Liszka and his entire staff were wonderful throughout my son’s ear surgery and recovery. Dr. Liszka was professional, caring, and took the time to make sure we understood everything and felt comfortable with the process. The follow-up care has also been excellent. His assistant, Jenny, was absolutely wonderful—kind, helpful, responsive, and genuinely caring. We are extremely grateful for the care my son received and would highly recommend Dr. Liszka and his team

Happy Returning Client After 18 Years
Dr. Liszka did my breast implant surgery in 2008 and not only was I very pleased with his work but every mammogram that I've had done since then has been followed up by comments about what a good job had been done with inserting the implants underneath the muscle. After 18 years I decided to have my implants redone because gravity is what it is and I hate wearing a bra. The removed implants where still in tack with no issue. I could have left them in for many more years if I

Amazing Experience
Not really a facelift but there in no category for Superman! Dr Liszka helped me deal with an infection and multiple missed stiches left by another surgeon who wasn't being very responsive. He was very gentle and meticulous. 1000% recommend him. His nurse even gave me her cell number in case I needed anything during the weekend! That is something the original surgeon never even did. They are caring and honest here.

Tummy Tuck Results
So I'm 37 years old and I have a 4 year old son. I wanted a smaller waist but all of my workout attempts failed, detoxing, failed, dieting..failed.. not cause those things don't work, I am just very busy and I'm not the best with time management. Which I think you need to be to plan to work out and meal prep and all that jazz. So I went to my consultation, I had 360 lipo the year prior, my doctor stated to get the results I wanted (a flat stomach) I would need a tummy tuck. I
What a great experience! Every person that works here is so kind and SO comforting. This was my first major surgery, so naturally I was nervous during scheduling and consultations. They made me feel so comfortable and safe that I ended up being more excited than nervous the day of my surgery. My recovery was surprisingly easy and they checked in on me along the way. And my results are great! I would recommend this place to anyone.

Breast Reduction
I hated having big boobs. January 2016 I had my surgery with Dr. Liszka and he did an amazing job! It’s been 2 years and I’m still happy with the results! Everyone at the office from the nurses to front desk are so helpful and sweet. I’m really glad that I chose him to perform my surgery. The pain the first few days were rough but after he removed the drains everything was fine from then on. Thanks again!
