My journey began when I was only 11 years old. I'd been scrolling through social media, looking mostly at artwork of my favorite games and shows, when I came across the word "transgender" for the first time. My curiosity compelled me to search for the word's definition on Google: A person whose gender identity is different from the sex they were assigned at birth... I remember gasping sharply...
I am very pleased with my experience with Dr. Capek. She was kind and honest when we discussed expectations and results prior to the procedure, and after the results are beautiful. She is a skilled artist and surgeon, and I look perfectly natural. I have so much more confidence, and feel great in my clothes. The support staff are friendly and helpful. Overall it was a very good experience.

In May of 2022, I had an extended deep plane facelift, buccal fat removal, lower bleph and neck liposuction with the correlated neck lift. Despite having a complication eight days post-op of a neck hematoma, (which was not the surgeons fault - it just can happen) and an extended recovery, I am very happy with my outcome. I had a terrible turkey neck and Dr. Williams gave me the under jaw/neck...
I've dreamed of getting breast augmentation for as long as I can remember, but my desire grew even stronger after having my two kids. After pregnancy, I noticed a significant change in volume, which left me feeling a bit self-conscious. Standing at 5'3" and weighing 118 lbs, I have an athletic build, but I often felt like my ribcage was more prominent than my chest, especially in swimsuits...
I saw Dr. Slaughter for upper lip reconstruction after a bad fall. He tried an ingenious technique that minimized scarring and maximized symmetry. He posts some incredible photos of reconstructions post-Mohs surgery. The OR staff was great. All in all it was an excellent experience. I would see him if I needed a plastic surgeon again in a heartbeat.
Chelsea Dr. Capeks Physicians Assistant is amazing. She was gentle and used precise injections that were painless to achieve such a natural look to my very deep laugh lines that were aging me so badly!! I am impressed and relieved as I have never had fillers. I look ten years older and her technique was exquisite and very, very high end. I left another practice to come here and am so glad I...
I went to Dr.Schingo for my breast reduction surgery because he was the only surgeon in the area that had done a Plastic Surgery Fellowship (at NYU) and seemed to have the most experience with breast surgeries - specifically reconstructions and reductions which, from what I can tell are more involved than implants. I was impressed with the before and after photos that I saw during my...
