Lisa J. Peters MD Plastic Surgery & Medical Spa

I lost over 200lbs and did a lot of research prior to making the decision on who to leverage for skin removal.

I was impressed by the photos of the results from Dr. Peters' breast reduction patients, so I scheduled a consultation with her as well as two other doctors. I can't know for certain my results would have been different with another doctor, but based off my experience I would feel confident recommending her to anyone looking for good results and peace of mind throughout the process!

I had large breasts which sagged due to weight loss and increased my back pain. Dr.

My experience was simply Amazing!!!!! Dr. Peters and her staff was so accommodating and great to work with. From the very beginning at my consultation up to the day of the procedure was mind blowing experience. When I look at the before and after pictures I still can't believe the remarkable work Dr. Peters did. I just can't stop looking at how beautiful the work Dr. Peters did. I feel like I have somewhat of my hour shape body back!!! I highly recommend Dr. Peters because she's
