Breast Reduction

My breast reduction and lift surgery at age 72 has been life changing

My breast reduction and lift surgery at age 72 has been life changing. Some people have larger ears and noses as they get older... my breasts just kept growing and eventually they bothered my neck shoulders and developed horrible rashes on the underside of the breasts. I finally took the leap and consulted with Dr. Krant. I scheduled my surgery immediately and 5 months after the surgery i am so happy with the results. Dr. Krant is so skillful. The surgery and aftercare have been amazing and I am so grateful for feeling better. I wish I had done the surgery sooner.

Scar Removal Surgery

I can breathe easily for the first time in 12 years

Dr. Stephen Krant is an amazing detailed and talented plastic surgeon. I’ve had 2 separate surgeries where he relived 12 years of pain from neck fusion. Scar tissue had developed after a surgery I had in 2010, it was essentially choking me. He removed the scar tissue and thanks to Dr. Krant and his amazing attentive staff, I can breathe easily for the first time in 12 years. Second surgery there was a mass on the back of my neck, he removed that mass; again for the first time in 12 years I’ve had complete pain relief from tingling/excruciating prickly pain in my fingers and hands, pain in my forearm and neck pain; full and complete pain relief! Dr. Krant Has stellar skills, and really cares about his patients. It’s almost like a second family. He makes sure you recover well! It is my personal opinion Dr. Krant and his office Are an awesome team working diligently to improve your life.

My self-esteem has been enhanced immeasurably

Dr. Krant-and his team- are exceptional. I trust this doctor completely and he is so skillful in providing great plastic surgery results and a natural look. I had rhinoplasty 20 years ago and recently went back for a tummy tuck and breast reduction. My self-esteem has been enhanced immeasurably. I’m able to be more active and am more confident with my physical appearance. No words to describe my gratitude.

The results make a big difference and still are naturalistic

Dr Krant is a brilliant plastic surgeon -- and the kindest, most talented, compassionate dr I have ever met in more than 4 decades. He truly cares about each patient, and always goes above and beyond. I was referred to him by several friends who raved about his expertise and experience, as well as his incredibly caring bedside manner. The results speak for themselves - am thrilled with the plastic surgery he performed. The results make a big difference and still are naturalistic. Pre and post op, Dr. Krant bent over backwards to assist. I met with Dr Krant his team met several times to make sure I understood everything and that every question was answered. Post surgery, I met with Dr Krant and his team and had calls from his team more than 4 times -- just because they cared so much. Am SO happy with the result. Best medical decision I have every made.

Dr. Krant and his staff went above and beyond

I went in for a consultation August 2020 and all of my questions were thoroughly addressed for my mommy makeover. The staff were very thoughtful, polite, and exceptionally professional. I had my surgery in October of 2020 and I love my results. As an African American woman, I was worried about how I would scar as I am prone to keloids and hyperpigmentation. Dr. Krant and his staff went above and beyond to care for me after my surgery. When my car was having issues and the person who had to drive to and from my appointments could not pick me up, Dr. Krant had a staff member use his personal vehicle to drive me home. When I needed to take medical leave from school due to my healing, Dr. Krant wrote a letter for me so that I could provide it to my university to excuse me for the time out of courses. I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder 5 months after my cosmetic surgeries that would entail myself getting laparoscopic surgery through my abdomen and Dr. Krant reached out to one of my medical health providers to get/share information regarding how I would be cut. Dr. Krant made me feel comfortable and cared for with his amazing bedside manners. His attentiveness to my desires for my appearance and my overall needs was AMAZING. I am now 10 months post op and I have had no issues with my healing process. He and his staff have my highest recommendation!!!

Tummy Tuck

I am 11 months post-op for a tummy tuck and I am very happy with my result

I am 11 months post-op for a tummy tuck and I am very happy with my result. In addition, the care I received from everyone at SK Clinic, especially Dr. Krant and his nursing staff, was excellent. It was a big surgery, with a somewhat difficult recovery, and every step of the way I felt informed and well-cared for. The after care couldn't have been more attentive and I felt like the goal of my complete satisfaction was never abandoned. Today I'm super happy with the result; my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner. Now SK Clinic takes care of all my skin care needs, and I'm very grateful.

Mommy Makeover

The BEST!! Absolutely in Love with my results.

Absolutely in Love with my results. This is my second time back with Dr. krant, I had a breast aug. over ten years ago (which looked fabulous) and just recently after having a baby decided to get a lift & some lipo to get my mom bod back and he did it again.. I couldn’t be happier!! Dr. Krant truly cares about his patients and his team is beyond wonderful, they made me feel comfortable and safe.. it honestly felt like family. Not only is Dr. Krant looking out for what’s best for your health and body & making sure he hears you out as to what you want, but also extremely knowledgeable in his craft (more then any other Dr. I’ve met.) He’s truly the BEST!!! I wouldn’t go with any other Dr. I can’t thank him and his team enough..

Breast Augmentation

Dr. Krant did an amazing job

I had breast augmentation and Dr. Krant did an amazing job. They are the perfect size. They look so natural just like I wanted. The scar I can barely see it and it's been only 2 months and it will get better so that is amazing. I have never seen such a perfect work. I am so happy!

Liposuction

Amazing Experience! Lasting Results!

Dr. Krant and his team were amazing the whole way through. Not only do I love the results (then and now 1 year later), but the level of care provided by the entire team at S.K. Clinic was outstanding. Before, during and after my procedure, I always felt like I was part of a very close knit family. Dr. Krant is truly one of a kind! Easy to talk to, informative, and shows a genuine interest in you and your goals. I highly recommend!
