Michael Ondik, MD

I wanted to get rid of my jowls as I felt they made me look tired all the time and when I was tired the jowls appeared worse. The doctor did a great job. I followed his directions to the letter and healed nicely. I had some swelling, the first week, but not much. The second week some brusing occured, but again not much. The incisions are barely noticeable and it has been less then a month. I must add the location of the forementioned is at the bottom of my ears and my hair covers it. The doctor did the procedure in his office and I experienced no pain during or after. I am hoping to get photos as the doctor said he would give me a set of before/day after/week after/2 weeks after/ month/etc. Updated on 20 Oct 2013: I sent this to picture to the Doctor after he called to see how I was doing. Updated on 27 Oct 2013: Updated on 27 Oct 2013: The pictures are before and a month after. Before the procedure, as I tired the jowl area would worsen and sag even more. I am still healing and there is still some swelling, but the incisions are healing nicely. I have only eye makeup and blush on in before and after photos.

I work in a school and students would often ask me why I was frowning. I would tell them "I'm not frowning, my face is hanging!" They would laugh and I would say just wait until your my age! I had a droopy jawline and a saggy crepe neck. I looked old, tired, and worn out. Sometimes I would catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror and it would be frightening. Last year, Dr. Ondik removed a mole from my neck with local anesthetic and I could never find a scar where it was removed. So, when I decided to have the mini facelift I spoke to Dr. Ondik about having him do it his office the same way. Dr. Ondik took his time in explaining the procedure. He explained what to expect, from preparing before the surgery, during the surgery and what to expect after the surgery. Dr. Ondik was extremely patient and he had a very calming bedside manner and was always accessible before and after my surgery for any and all questions I had. The procedure was a piece of cake and so was the recovery! Dr. Ondik fully prepared me for what to expect each day and week. I am so happy with the results of my surgery. I would do it again in a heart beat and I would recommend Dr. Ondik to anyone considering having any plastic surgery procedure. I am totally satisfied and I never get tired of hearing my friends and family constantly telling me how amazing I look!

It has been 2 months since I had the Restylane and Botox treatments. I can't begin to say how happy I am with the results. I had Restylane injections (3 syringes) in wrinkle folds as well as a small amount of Botox in the area between my eyes for frown lines. I couldn't be more pleased with the results. At 64 years of age, I landed a good job, 3 weeks after having this facial work done. I would highly recommend this procedure and Dr. Ondik at Bucks Dermatology if you have wrinkles or lines that really bother you. There is minimal to no pain; numbing cream is used prior to the procedure and sterile technique is maintained.

For some time I thought about Botox and wondered if it was time for me to take the plung. I finally did and my experience was great. The procedure itself was quick and painless and I'm very pleased with the results (only sorry that I didn't do it sooner). The deep lines on my forehead and fine lines and wrinkles around my mouth are almost non-existent. I expected an improvement but didn't expect it to be this good. I will most definately be returning to see Dr. Ondik and his staff. The best part is how subtle the changes are -- at a recent party my friends commented that I looked great but were none the wiser as to why!

I had the eyelid surgery done at Dr. Ondik's office. It was completely painless I did not fell a thing. The recovery time was minimal and there was not much pain afterwards either. Dr. Ondik and his staff are just the most wonderful and friendly office around. He even called me at home afterwards just to check up and make sure I was doing ok or had any questions or conerns. I am very happy I had this procedure done, the results are fantastic.
