Magical Mommy Makeover by Dr. Cruise

I have been so happy with the professionalism and care I have received from the entire staff at Cruise Plastic Surgery! Dr. Cruise did an amazing job and I’m so happy with my results from my mommy makeover! His hands worked magically and he left me feeling naturally beautiful which is what I had wanted! I can’t believe how life changing this feels! Dana his nurse is amazing, knowledgeable and caring! The entire team is just awesome from Kayla at the front desk, Stephanie who walked me through the whole pre-op process and Dana the nurse who has been a rock for me, I’m so beyond happy I went with him and his team! Thank you for my helping me get my 20’s body back in my 40’s!

Office review - such a great experience during my procedure

Dr Cruise and his staff are phenomenal and has been such a great experience during my procedure. I have lived with Gynecomastia for my whole life and finally was tired of living with it. After much research and seeing different doctors I choose to go with Dr Cruise based on his consultation and his staff. They made me feel comfortable. I decided to not only do the Gynecomastia surgery but also a tummy tuck. My surgery took most of the day. After my surgery the follow up and responsiveness of the team has been fantastic. I am about 6 months post op now and it has been the best decision I made. I love the outcome of the surgery and my new appearance. I couldn't be happier with Dr Cruise and his staff.

The recovery process is surprisingly easy

I recently had gynecomastia surgery with Dr. Cruise, and I can confidently say that he and his staff are truly amazing. From the moment I walked into the office, I felt welcomed and well taken care of. Dr. Cruise took the time to listen to my concerns and explain the surgery in detail. I am still healing but healing very well, thanks to Dr. Cruise and his staff. I was amazed at how smoothly everything went. The recovery process is also surprisingly easy, thanks to the detailed instructions and support from his staff. Speaking of his staff, they are truly exceptional. From the nurse who assisted me during the surgery to the front desk staff who helped me with scheduling and consents, everyone was friendly, professional, and dedicated to making sure I had the best experience possible. Overall, I can't recommend Dr. Cruise and his team enough gynecomastia surgery, I would absolutely recommend Dr. Cruise and his staff without hesitation.

Most of the procedure was painless except for a few minutes

I was between Type 1 and Type 2. In my weight loss journey I lost 80 pounds and yet I could never get rid of my chest fat. I saw Dr. Cruise and explained to me that you cant burn off breast tissue like you can with fat. My suspicions were confirmed and I scheduled the surgery shortly after. I was initially very nervous and with the support of the nurses. On the day of surgery I was given Xanax and most of the nervousness disappeared. I would rate the pain level exactly what is stated on their website, 6/10. Most of the procedure was painless except for a few minutes here and there. Don’t be afraid of the tubes post op. I got them right now and I just put them in my pocket lol Facility is really nice and clean. I would recommend doing it if you’ve already started to change your life style. One nurse that stood out was Jamie, she was extremely sweet and did a good job discussing all of my concerns.

Informative and Efficient - I Left Feeling Very Comfortable

My experience with Cruise Plastic Surgery was wonderful. Stephanie is friendly, communicates well and has great personality. Dr. Cruise was personable, informative and efficient. It’s very clear he’s great at what he does. All my questions were answered and I left feeling very comfortable. I would definitely recommend Cruise Plastic Surgery.

Professional, friendly & comforting for gynecomastia surgery

Staff is absolutely amazing. Professional, friendly and comforting from the moment you walk in the door. The work of Dr. Cruise and his team can be likened to that of pure artistry. Special shout-out to Stephanie, Kacey, Jay, Dana, Amine (Amina?), and Jamie, for creating a safe space for patients to deal with insecurities. The entire time, I felt like I was in good hands. From the second I walked through the door. Dr. Cruise and the entirety of his patient population couldn’t be in better hands. If you’re trying to get right…take a Cruise on over. If you didn’t catch it, that was a pun, and very much so intended.

Don’t waste your time elsewhere - finally given me what I wanted

Don’t waste your time at any other practice! This is by far the most superior of practices, you will get exactly the dream you desire. Dr Cruise is an artist, an cosmetic savant and meticulous architect of life changing procedures. I had a breast list and flanks liposuction, from the consultation with Dr Cruise and Stephanie to the post care either Dr Cruise snd Dana, it’s been easy. They’re always smiling, and genuinely care about you and your body. I had 2 prior breast surgeries and had “ptsd” from incorrect sizing and different sized implants plus shape and symmetry. I’m so so so happy I chose Dr Cruise snd his team who have finally given me what I wanted. Don’t waste your time anywhere else!

Most Reputable Facility in the Country!

After years of suffering from gynecomastia, I finally fell into the right hands with Dr. Cruise when looking for the right treatment center. Not only is he most meticulous surgeon, the office staff is best I've ever interacted with. The manager, Stephanie, is always there to make your surgery journey as seamless as possible. And I couldn't thank enough the medical and front desk staff, truly everyone played a part in such a positive life-changing experience. I couldn't be more grateful for the results and highly recommend going to Dr. Cruise for any plastic surgery needs!

28 yo male gyno surgery and liposuction

So incredibly happy I found Dr. Cruise. I have been dreaming off getting Gynecomastia surgery done since high school when it developed. I tried everything from diet and exercise for years and felt so ashamed to take my shirt off at pools or during gym class. I could never wear tight clothing or light fabrics. So at 28 years old and several different consultations with other doctors, I found dr. Cruise. Right away I felt comfortable as I had done quite a bit of research before hand. I even ended up scheduling abdomen, breast roll and flank liposuction (I’m not a bigger guy but these have always been my problem areas and I figured why not since I’m already doing this and I trust this doctor) Everything went so smooth from the consult, to scheduling and the surgery day. All the girls in the office are so friendly and helpful and really make you feel so comfortable. The doctor included. Everything was just so easy and a breeze. I am only 5 days post op and I can tell a huge difference. I am no stranger to plastic surgery, especially because I have had my nose and chin done, and have had so many of my friends go under the knife. With any of my past procedures, when ever they took off the cast or removed bandages it was always super underwhelming or just didn’t look right due to swelling and healing (not these beautiful moments that you see on tv) but when Dr. cruise removed my bandages the day after surgery, I finally had that moment and it’s just been getting better every day since. I feel so lucky that I found him and he honestly exceeded my expectations.
