Michael Zwicklbauer, MD, FACS

I had a tummy tuck June of 2024 and I can’t say enough about the positive experience I had. Very attentive doctor and staff that always answered my questions and eased my concerns. The results are amazing and I couldn’t be more pleased. Nice low incision that’s healing lovely with a cute bellybutton .Life changing procedure. Highly recommend

I had a breast lift and implant done by Dr. Z about 8 months ago and the entire process was wonderful. I nursed two babies over 12 months each and ended with no breast and major ptosis. I got 400ccs (my only issue because I wouldn't mind them a tad bigger lol but everyone says that) and my breast look extremely natural outside of normal scarring! His bedside manner is also top notch! Highly recommend

I can't say enough good things. The incision and bellybutton are crazy. Just perfection. Dr Z was also so personable and down to earth. I always enjoyed our office visits. I appreciate his perfectionist mentality as he even said he wasn't crazy about a tiny spot that I didn't even notice so he did a quick little fix in office at no charge so it would be absolutely perfect.

I recently had the pleasure of undergoing a procedure with Dr. Zwicklbauer, and I cannot express enough how impressed I am with the entire experience. From the initial consultation to the final follow-up appointment, Dr. Zwicklbauer demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism and expertise.
Dr. Zwicklbauer is a true perfectionist, and his meticulous attention to detail and commitment to achieving the best possible results are evident in his work. The results are so perfect that it feels like he might also be a magician! He took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure, answer all of my questions, and set realistic expectations. I still can’t believe how perfectly the results match my request.
In addition to his technical expertise, Dr. Zwicklbauer is incredibly personable. He has a warm and approachable demeanor that immediately puts you at ease. He genuinely cares about his patients and takes the time to understand their individual needs and concerns. His compassionate and patient-centered approach made me feel confident and comfortable throughout the entire process.
I am beyond thrilled with the outcome of my procedure and am grateful to have found such a talented and caring plastic surgeon. I highly recommend Dr. Zwicklbauer to anyone seeking top-notch surgical care. His combination of perfectionism and personable nature makes him an outstanding choice for anyone considering plastic surgery.

I had an circumferential tummy tuck with Dr. Z approximately 3 months ago. The results have been amazing. I could not be more pleased. At consultation, Dr. Z gave me several tummy tuck options and explained the pros and cons of each option. His warmth and obvious expertise gave me the confidence to opt for the circumferential, the most extensive of the choices. The day of the surgery, I felt very cared for from the moment of check-in. The warming bed made me very comfortable and the pre-op nurse was amazing. My “rolling” small veins make starting an IV very challenging and she took care to find the smallest of needles to make the process as comfortable as possible for me. Likewise, the anesthesiologist, Dr. Lamberson, was very personable and took a lot of time to discuss his role and what would be happening. Dr. Z came in and explained the surgery again in detail and answered all of my husband’s many questions. The surgery, which took about 4 1/2 hours, was without complication and I went home with clear post op instructions. Dr. Z has seen me on all my follow up appointments to check progress. As I said earlier, I could not be more pleased with the results of the surgery or more pleased with my entire experience with Dr. Z and his team. I highly recommend them to anyone considering a cosmetic procedure.

The incisions and bruising healed very quickly. There was a huge difference is just a few weeks. The scars have continued to fade and I have not had any difficulties in the months 5 months since my surgery.

For the past decade, the desire for a tummy tuck lingered in my mind, fueled by a longing to reclaim my confidence and pre-baby body. Enter Dr. Z, whose expertise and compassionate care have truly transformed my life.

From the initial consultation, Dr. Z's genuine concern and professionalism were evident. He patiently listened to my concerns, addressing each one with thoroughness and empathy. Never did I feel rushed or dismissed; instead, I felt understood and supported throughout the entire process.

Dr. Z's bedside manner exceeded my expectations. His reassuring presence and unwavering dedication instilled a sense of trust and comfort, making the surgical journey feel not only manageable but empowering.

As I reflect on my journey, I am overwhelmed with gratitude and joy. Dr. Z not only delivered exceptional results, but he also restored my confidence and provided me with the gift of self-assurance. For anyone considering a similar journey, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Z and his incredible team for a truly life-changing experience.

Dr. Zwicklbauer and PSCHR staff are nothing short of a class act. I am only a few weeks out from my breast reduction with lift and tummy tuck surgery and the results are phenomenal. The care and concern received and bedside manner were truly unmatched. I will absolutely recommend Dr. Z , I really can’t say enough. My life has changed forever and I am so very grateful. Thank you from the bottom of my heart

Recently got 475cc in each boobs mentor! Staff excellent and I felt at ease! I was nervous because I didn't know what to expect but wow what a great experience. I would refer anyone too him especially because is great bedside manner! He gives you what you want.

Dr. Z is a wonderful doc! He first generated trust when I broke my nose and I sought his out to have my break shaved down and my septum fixed. He actually referred me to an ENT and turned down the work. The ENT did a great job. So I returned to Dr. Z when I wanted to have a breast reduction and tummy tuck. He was personable, honest and really listed to what I wanted to achieve. He offered me alternative options to consider and all the time I needed. He did a great job and my results are fantastic. I'm so happy with my results.

Outstanding and fabulous! I'm living my best life because of Dr. Zwicklbauer, Dr. Rein, Carol and the whole team at the PSCHR. Dr. Z did nothing short of working miracles on this body. And I can't say enough about the patient assistance care from day 1 up until now with Carol, the nurses and the lovely young ladies at the front office. If you want quality work, great aftercare, and excellent support, choose the Plastic Surgery Center of Hampton Roads. I'm seeking more service with them this month only because of the great care. I hope this review will help someone make a great decision. I did my research and it paid off. Good luck!

It’s been two years this past June since my plastic surgery procedure and I still look and feel fabulous without any complications. The wonderful thing is I feel amazing. I get approached by people on a daily basis with kind words and nice compliments. There is some significant scarring from the type of procedure I chose, however, wearing a bikini is so much fun. I use temporary tattoos and wear cover ups. I’m 62 yrs old and feel like I’m 29. There’s still tenderness and some numbness where my scares are, but it’s very minor. I really appreciate my wonderful husband for doing this for me and for his unwavering support, love and care. I have so much love for Dr. Zwicklbauer, his surgical team and the entire staff at the Plastic Surgery Center of Hampton Roads.
