Rhinoplasty and Nose Shaping

78 Photos72 Reviews256 Q&A2 Offers
I specialize in aesthetic and functional rhinoplasty, including revision rhinoplasty and septoplasty. Nose surgery is an extremely delicate, complex procedure, and it takes great skill and experience to consistently create an excellent result. By reshaping and refining your nose, I can make it more proportional to your face and bring balance and harmony to all of your facial features. Because I am board-certified in both plastic surgery and otolaryngology, I am an expert in improving both the function of the nose and its cosmetic appearance, ensuring that your rhinoplasty results look natural while preserving or improving your ability to breathe easily. During your consultation at my Boston, Massachusetts office, we’ll discuss your aesthetic goals and I will carefully examine your facial anatomy before recommending the best treatment plan to create your ideal nose.

Breast Reconstruction

20 Photos31 Reviews29 Q&A2 Offers
Breast reconstructive surgery is one of my primary areas of expertise, as well as a personal passion. Thanks to my time as a fellow at the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center and my membership on the boards of Susan G. Komen and Bright Pink, I have a unique understanding of what my breast reconstruction patients are going through, and how I can help restore some of what they’ve lost. I offer three breast reconstruction techniques: DIEP flap, which uses tissue from the patient’s lower abdomen to restore the breast; latissimus dorsi flap, which uses a muscle from the back; and breast implant-based reconstruction. I evaluate each patient to determine her specific situation and which approach will provide the most natural-looking results, based on the original breast size, amount of body fat, and tissue available to rebuild the breast. I invite you to schedule a consultation at my Boston, Massachusetts practice to explore your breast reconstruction options.

Breast Augmentation

Amazing Experience from Start to Finish!

My experience was great and very thorough. Dr. Lin and his staff took their time with me to explain my options and the breast augmentation process. We went over many options, and Dr. Lin's suggestion for a high profile implant was perfect for me. My end result looks wonderful, and the implants are the perfect size for my body type. Also, my nurses at BI Needham were awesome! They were very friendly and caring.

Best Decision Ever

I was so nervous going into the surgery but the doctor was really patient and supportive. Now my ears look really great and I can wear my hair up. I no longer feel self-conscious about how I look. My only regret is not doing this long ago. Dr. Lin went above and beyond to make sure everything went perfectly. I am really grateful.

Amazing Experience

My experience was one that I will always remember! When I first met Dr. Lin and his staff I was treated with compassion and care. I felt heard, and i knew then I came to the right Doctor to do my surgery. I have had this apron belly since I was 22 years old and for years i tried to lose it with Diet and exercise but when you have csection its a littler harder for some. I never knew about this type of surgery until I started hearing about online. And with all the rashes and etc. I have been experiencing I prayed I coud get the surgery done. Now at 50 years old finally here, and I feel amazing. No rashes , no smell, no cysts! No belly on my lap! Cant wait to be able to do all the things I have been wanting to do all those years! Doctor Lin helped me!!

Best Outcome and Journey Ever

I wish no one has to ever go through what I went through on my breast cancer journey, but if I had not chosen Dr. Lin as my surgeon, I don't think my journey would have had the same outcome. He is kind, compassionate, understanding, empathetic, and a perfectionist, in the best of ways. He is unlike any surgeon I have ever met or worked with,(I am an Orthopedic Nurse) and he is a plastic surgeon, remarkably so. I refer him to anyone that has a need for his skills, but he is above and beyond what I expect from a Physician. His office and team of professionals are attentive, caring and are always willing to go the extra mile for their patients. I will never see anyone else in his field of practice.

Many Thanks!

Dr. Lin is kind, caring, knowledgeable, and extremely professional. Dr. Lin is one of the finest physicians I have ever met. I was so fortunate to have him as my surgeon. He took the time to understand the pain I was going though after surgery and to understand the health challenges of my husband. This made an extremely difficult situation tolerable. I believe that he is likely the best plastic surgeon in Boston. I hold his team in high regard - Jamie, Callie, Mollie, Brooke, and Eliana! Many many thanks to them!

Wonderful Experience and Great Results

Wonderful experience with BILH and Dr. Lin! explained everything thoroughly and set expectations. The procedure and recovery went flawless. After getting the splints out, I could take a deep breath through my nose for the first time in my life. Would highly recommend this to anyone seeking a better quality of life
