I cannot recommend Dr. Howell highly enough! From the very beginning of my journey, he demonstrated exceptional professionalism, expertise, and genuine care. During my initial consultation, I shared my goals and expectations for a tummy tuck, arm lift, and fat transfer to the breast. Dr. Howell listened attentively, addressed all my questions, and thoroughly explained the procedures. His confidence and clear communication immediately reassured me that he was the right surgeon for the job. Although I had consultations scheduled with other plastic surgeons, I canceled them after meeting Dr. Howell. I knew I was in the best hands. The results of my surgery were incredible from the start, and now, six weeks post-operation, I am even more thrilled. Dr. Howell has been consistently supportive throughout the healing process, ensuring all my concerns were addressed during follow-up visits. He took the time to explain each step, answer my (many!) questions with patience, and provided reassurance when needed. His warm and welcoming demeanor made me feel completely comfortable and well-informed at every stage. Dr. Howell’s expertise and meticulous attention to detail are exactly what anyone would hope for in a plastic surgeon. He is truly dedicated to achieving the best possible outcomes for his patients. My results have far exceeded my expectations, and I am absolutely delighted with my decision to choose Dr. Howell and his team. If you are considering any plastic surgery procedures, look no further—Dr. Howell is the best choice you can make!

Life-Changing Experience! I cannot express how grateful I am to Dr. Howell and the entire team at Salem Plastic Surgery. From the very first consultation to my post-op appointments, I felt cared for and listened to every step of the way. Dr. Howell took the time to understand exactly what I wanted and explained the procedure in detail, answering all of my questions with patience.

Dr. Howell is not only incredibly skilled but also compassionate, which made this journey so much more comfortable for me. If you’re considering breast augmentations any other procedure, I highly recommend Dr. Howell and Salem Plastic Surgery! I couldn’t be happier with my new look!

I recently had an explant of my 6 year old breast implants due to serious BII symptoms. Dr. Howell and staff were so easy to deal with. It is hard finding surgeons these days that admit to the possible side effects of breast implants so I found it very refreshing speaking with Dr. Howell. He was very understanding and got them out as soon as possible. I am now a week post op and already feel so much better! BII symptoms are improving everyday. If it wasn’t for Dr. Howell I would still be so sick and unable to show up for my family. He literally saved my life.

Dr Howell made me feel very comfortable with my procedure and explained every detail. The operation itself was very smooth and answered all of my questions. All of the office staff were sweet and helpful. Highly Recommend. I would most defintly see Dr Howell again. I am so happy with my results!!
AMAZING! Ladies don’t walk - run to Dr. Howell! He is incredibly talented. He’s honest. He’s kind. This was a life changing experience for me and I’m thankful I chose him. He was not the first Dr I “interviewed” and I knew he was the one after our first meeting. He doesn’t make you feel ‘typical’ and does not have the ‘one size fits all’ treatment plan mentality like the other physicians I met with. You won’t go wrong choosing him and his practice. Dr. Howell and his team were phenomenal!
Dr Howell is a fantastic physician and plastic surgeon. I saw him for smart lipo to my abdomen and flanks. I am loving my results! Salem plastic surgery is a top notch facility. The entire staff is welcoming and makes you feel like you are the only patient they have. My review is 5 stars and I would never go to any other plastic surgery facility!As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway.
Dr. Howell is an artist! I’ve been getting lip fillers with Dr. Howell for several years now. I would never go anywhere else. People compliment my lips everywhere I go. They used to be super thin and now they are plump with gorgeous shape. As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway.
I have been a patient of Dr. Howell for 5 years. I contemplated finding a plastic surgeon for years. After asking around and much thought I chose Dr Howell. I knew the first time I met Dr. Howell I had made the right choice. He is personable, confident in his abilities, good communicator and listener, caring and compassionate. I knew immediately I could trust him. I have had multiple different procedures done and was completely satisfied with each one. He never pushed me to do more than I was comfortable with. He shares excellent options from his perspective. The staff is friendly and outgoing. The only regret I have is I didn’t go sooner. I highly recommend Dr. Howell. Jump in for a consultation and see for yourself!!
I went there for a breast lift and augmentation and he did an amazing job! I felt very comfortable and the staff was very friendly and helpful! I would definitely recommend Dr. Howell to anyone who wants to have anything done! The recovery was as expected and I am in love with my new boobs!!
