Exceptional Care
Dr. Austen did a complete nose reconstruction and provided exceptional care. I had to have this done due to a collapse from a secondary surgery (endoscopic brain surgery for a benign brain tumor). I love my new nose and I can now breathe and sleep much better and have fewer migraines. Dr. Austen provided EXCEPTIONAL care and I HIGHLY recommend him. He is the best of the best and the only doctor that could figure out what was wrong and provide a fix that has drastically

Happy Face - Boston
I am a competitive athlete who participates in events with women decades younger than myself. I am very happy with the condition of my body but was sad about the encroachment of time on my face. My skin was clear but my face drooped and was tired looking. My best friend had a facelift and I was truly in awe of how "renovated" she looked and how great she felt about herself. So off we went to a consultation for me at the same office. My procedure included an overnight

28 Year Old So Self Conscious
I have always been self conscious about my nose and I hated myself in pictures.Dr Austen and his staff was wonderful. I felt very comfortable at my first appointment Dr Austen explained everything and answered all my questions. He was so kind and patient . The morning of the procedure he saw me before my surgery , I was so nervous and he put my mind at ease. The result is amazing and I couldn't be happier for someone who hated pictures I am a selfie queen . I can't stress how
I originally had implants done when I was 20 and I was too young to have silicone. At the time I didn't care and just wanted them regardless. I was 5'2 and 110 pounds - flat chested , wore a 34b but was really an A cup. My original surgery was under the muscle and 275cc in one breast and 300cc in the other. The end result looked really good I was a full C. But I eventually hated how they felt, basically felt like water balloons. Some woman who have a decent amount of natural
I have always wanted bigger and perkier breasts. Before my ba I was pretty asymmetrical with my left breast larger and drooping more than right. A few years ago I had a consult with a boston plastic surgeon who suggested a peri areola lift with implant. He frowned on any implant in any woman above 250cc. So I sat on that for a few years and the sagging of my breasts progressed. I was referred to dr. Austen at mass general in boston and saw his work on other people and was impressed.

Dr Austen is Amazing!
In 2007, I had a transumbilical breast augmentation by a surgeon in New York. Fast forward three years and both were leaking (I had saline) which ended in one completely rupturing two years ago. I had given my previous surgeon a full deposit to redo the procedure (I dont know what I was thinking, but I later learned transumbilical is a terrible way to go because the implants get overhandled and there is a much greater risk of leak or rupture) but after discussing with a friend/patient

76 Year Old Breast Reduction
I had a bilateral breast reduction. Dr. Austen was my surgeon due to my many health problems, he is knowledgeable and professional. For recovery I employed the New England Rapid Recovery Center in NH, I was able to heal at such a rapid rate I nor my doctor could believe it. The NERR system had me off medications in a few days and in one week the 95% bruising was gone feeling really great. Updated on 25 Apr 2014: With the New England Rapid Recovery Center, I was able to heal
I have never had a flat stomach, and since having two large boys, it sticks out more now than before. Plus, now I have the added bonus of extra skin. The stretched muscles, extra skin, and genetic predisposition to deposit any extra fat over my middle are ugly, and what's worse, PUSH MY PANTS DOWN!!! I swear I am always pulling my pants up. I look like Chris Farley when he was the Motivational Speaker, "Livin' in a van down by the river!" It was a tummy tuck or a pair of crazy

Ruined my entire life!!!
This man ruined my life! I went to him for breast reconstruction revision after mastectomy. He removed my implants but made my once small scars HUGE! Literally disgusting! I can't even wear tank tops because you can see them from near the underarmi! He dd lipo for fat transfers to build up my breast and left me with lipo burns on my inner thighs, liposuctioned my hips OFF, severe indents on my legs from too much lipo o. One spot and disgusting lumps all over my legs and stomach
My first surgery with him 18 years ago was great. The following 2 yielded horrible results. I should've learned my lesson after the second surgery for replacement implants and lift with him in 2012 which resulted in caspular contracture. This cost me 10K. 3 months after this surgery, my right breast started to harden up. I went back for my follow up visit and he agreed that this was the beginning of a contracture. He advised me to wait until I have children to fix them. Each year
