25-2-2025 I want to give an extremely accurate description of my experience and healing process so my review will probably be in pieces. I am now 2 months post up and the first 8 weeks were HEAVY. I was really swollen and my emotions were going up and down all the time. Because i wasnt sure if i was going to like my results but like i said i am still healing and it has enormously changed in the past 2 months and im super excited to see what the future holds. So far im super happy. Make sure you know that this experience is mentally extremely draining and it will take a toll on you. Make sure your doctor is excellent and that at least your work will be done perfectly to your liking because looking back if i hadnt been able to hold on to the thought that one of the best doctors has touched my face my experience wouldve been horrible. Again right now im still healing and i want to give you a very accurate description of my process so i will be back.
PHENomenal WORK!! Incredibly natural with outstanding results from eyes to tummy and everything in between. Dr. Harris is well experienced with a high level of professionalism, expertise, and the genuine care that he has for his patients are unparalleled. His attention to detail and dedication to achieving the most natural and aesthetically pleasing results were evident throughout my personal journey with him since 2010. Dr. Harris has complete the following procedures on me: blepharoplasty, facelift with neck, upper lip lift, breast reduction/lift with Implants for fullness and liposuction at love handles and back. Dr. Harris listens to my concerns and goals then he crafts a personalized treatment plan that has exceeded my expectations and are flawless. My tummy tuck was from left side to right side almost 3 years old now. The scar has faded about 90% you can only see a few areas of hyperpigmentation. The office is warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff including nurses are the best. The surgery itself was a smooth experience with minimal discomfort. The only procedure that I endured the most pain was my tummy tuck with muscle repair. My recovery was pretty fast with each procedure. I stayed well hydrated and drank lots of protein shakes to help with healing. I had lots of swelling with the blepharoplasty. I used lots of ice and the swelling had subsided by 75% the following morning after surgery. I'm a nurse and believe me, it's very important not to cut corners when selecting a doctor. It's vital to get the right doctor the 1st time. If you are considering any procedure go see Dr. Harris. His talent, compassion, and dedication to patient satisfaction are truly remarkable, and I feel incredibly grateful to have been under his care.
My personal experience with Dr. Dulin went well. His consultations are very fast so if this is something that makes you weary I understand, for my personality type it worked well. I mentioned I was hesitant on an anchor lift for my one breast since we were fixing my asymmetry, I did not want the extra scar and he immediately had a solution. My breast now look great to me and my husband and could not be happier I have even forgotten I had such different breast before hand they feel like I have always had them. We will see how these babies progress but the original surgery and the price I paid was the best price I could find and offered the most post op help
Dr. Harris and his staff are amazing! I had breast augmentation and lipo last November (one year post op) and could not be happier with my results. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Harris if you’re considering breast augmentation and/or lipo, or honestly, any other procedure!
Dr. Alan Dulin & the AI4PS team were all incredible. Financially, I ended up paying OOP, and costs and deadlines were provided quickly and clearly. My communication with Lexy and Laura pre-op was primarily via email, and they answered all of the questions I posed, but if I needed an answer ASAP, the phone lines were always open and the response immediate. At my one-day pre-op consultation appointment, I met Dr. Dulin, and he was very professional, succinct, and answered all of my questions I had prepared. Any surgery is anxiety-inducing, but having a gender confirming one pulls at the brain a bit more, and I was incredibly nervous. I should mention that the consultation was very quick with him, about 5 minutes, but his demeanour and direct bedside manner gave me confidence and eased my fears considerably, especially because I was worried that my chest goals were not traditionally FTM top surgery (I wanted a non-flat, androgynous appearance with slightly bigger areolae and nipples). I was given a big packet of information for pre-op, op, and most importantly post-op care, directed to get my medication, and prepare for surgery the next day. The surgical team was very on-top of making sure I was aware of surgery time, and getting my health information and the anaesthesiologist also reassured me (which helped a lot, anaesthesia is scary!) On the day of surgery, everyone was quite kind and patient with me and Dr. Dulin saw me again, marked me up, explained to me what he was planning on doing, and into the OR I went! ~2 hrs later I woke up, and it was over, and the hard part of healing began. One day post-op, I went back in again, the ACE bandage was taken off (thank god!) and I was informed on how to do aftercare until the 1 week post-op appointment. 8 days later, I saw my new chest for the first time, and it was....instant peace. Dr. Dulin had taken my goal photos, my desires, wants, and needs into consideration, and had given me the chest of my dreams. I am now 10 weeks post-op and it's as though this is always the way it should have been. My chest has healed so well in the meantime (including my FNG), although I did have a bit of a contact dermatitis/allergic reaction to the Bacitracin and Aquaphor ~5 weeks post-op that had me nervously contacting Hope, but all is well that ends well and that cleared up when I started using Vaseline instead. Speaking of Hope, what an absolute angel -- she was there from pre-op all the way to now, and assuaged my fears, was so positive and bubbly, and was such a rockstar, answering all my questions, and being so patient with my nervous, bad-jokey self. I sent her emails, called her, and if I missed her, she would call/email back immediately -- communication with her was fantastic. I am so so glad I went to AI4PS and had my gender confirmation surgery with Dr. Dulin and his team -- I really can't recommend them enough! Especially now, with trans healthcare the way it is and especially in TX, I very much do not take for granted the work that they do and the gratitude and privilege I have to have been able to have this procedure done. - - - The single best thing about my procedure was the positive attitude that the team had -- I was a nervous wreck, had a lot of questions, and they were so patient and professional, it really helped calm me down. My treatment results are everything I could have hoped for -- it's really hard to envision the end result when you don't know how it's going to look like until weeks, months, or even a year down the line, but 10 weeks post-op, and I'm looking (and feeling!!) better than I could have ever hoped for. I never could have imagined feeling so much at peace in my body, and I cannot stress enough how life-altering this experience has been.
Dr. Raphael has actually done several surgeries on me. He was recommended by a friend. I started with lower face lift, neck lift, and breast implants, as I had lost volume due to weight loss. My next surgery was a total body lift, and removing loose skin under my arms. i still have one surgery left(legs). I wanted to do legs with my body lift. Dr. Raphael asked me if I wanted it done or I wanted it done right.I chose to have it done right. Which is why I still have one more surgery coming up. He definitely has changed my life for the better. He truly is an artist when it comes to his surgery. I will never regret the journey I have been on this past year.
My experience was fantastic with this practice. Everyone I encountered was top notch. They are warm and friendly, and I can't say enough good things. My procedure(s): lower face lift with lipo under the chin, brow lift, buccal fat removal and laser. My surgery was scheduled first thing in the morning (5:45 ish) and everyone was so chipper and sweet even though it was crazy early. I am 3 weeks post op and loving the results. The swelling is down and the redness from the laser is almost gone. I would absolutely do it all over again with this doctor and will continue to see him as needed.
Dr. Peter Rafael did my face and I am 100% happy his staff Catherine all the nurses and the anesthesiologist treated me with so much respect and love, I am 100% happy with the outcome of my beautiful new youthful looking face. He took 20 years off of me. My friends and family are mesmerized and you can’t tell that I’ve had a facelift because Dr. Peter Raphael hides the scars so well that you can’t tell but while looking at me, my face is tight beautiful and useful. Thank you so much Dr. Peter Raphael ????
I had an amazing experience with Dr. Dulin & his staff. Couldn't be happier and I will be doing my other procedures with him in the future for my full mommy makeover which will be the upper body lift. Past Procedures- PERFECTIONIST -- ARM LIFT, BREAST AUG & LIFT!!
I couldn't be happier with the results of my surgery, performed by Dr. Dulin and his awesome nursing staff! I had been researching and having consultations with different PS in the area and in Dallas. Dr. Dulin was the last consultation I had before I was to make a decision on who I wanted to perform my surgery. I had A LOT of loose skin in the lower abdomen, but I didn't want a complete tummy tuck...I didn't feel at my age that it was important, at least not to me, to have my abdominal muscles tightened. I only wanted lipo and to have the loose skin removed. All the other PS I had consulted with had said it was a necessary part of the surgery, and that I would end up not being happy with the results if I didn't get the muscles tightened. Well, after coming out from my consult with Dr. Dulin, and his gorgeous coordinator, Laura Badr, I knew he was the one I had been searching for! He did exactly what I wanted and the results far exceeded my expectations!! His nursing staff is amazing, and the care I received before and after was top notch. I did stay overnight and I felt so comfortable having a nurse to care for me in just incase any problems would arise. I highly recommend Dr. Dulin to anyone looking to get this type of procedure.
It is extremely unlikely that your implant or capsule has been damaged, but I would recommend getting a mammogram to help allay your concern. While the mammogram is not going to be 100% effective at seeing a problem it is the safest, easiest, cheapest test that may help you. Good luck!
