Male Plastic Surgery - Chicago

After losing over 100 pounds, I got a 360 torso tuck, 360 liposuction, fat transfer to shoulders/traps, and axillary skin removal to address the loose skin around my abdomen and chest. I chose Dr. Steinbrech after consulting with another surgeon, and I couldn't be happier with my decision. Dr. Steinbrech's extensive experience working with male patients was a key factor in my choice.

Five months post-op, my stomach is now flat, with some visible definition I never thought I'd see. I'm feeling more confident in my clothes and at the gym—I've even started working out shirtless, something I never would have done before.

The scar from my torso tuck is low, thin, and straight, sitting along the natural underwear line. This was very important to me, as I've seen results from other surgeons where the scar sits too high or curves awkwardly. Dr. Steinbrech’s placement is discreet, and the scar is already fading nicely. My belly button also looks very natural, and the scar around it is recessed inside the belly button so it isn't very noticeable. The axillary skin excision, which was suggested, was a subtle yet effective touch to lift my pecs without needing a major chest procedure. The scar from that is well-hidden in my armpit, which I appreciated. The traps definitely show more definition from the fat transfer when I flex.

From the start, Joe was helpful during the scheduling process and initial consultation, and Patrick was great with answering many of my post-surgery questions. And of course Dr. Steinbrech was very professional, knowledgeable, skilled, and also friendly.

I highly recommend Dr. Steinbrech if you're a man considering post-weight loss surgery. His work speaks for itself.

Last year I decided to get filled with Dr Steinbrech. Absolutely loved the results that I went ahead and got more done this year with two more syringes than before and the results were just as great as before. I would definitely go again next year, even considering a surgery. His approach to the procedure was excellent and the staff was great in handling it all. Highly recommended

After years of struggling with being underweight and feeling insecure, I sought to improve my body. Despite gaining weight, I was disappointed with the development of man boobs and a less flat tummy. My first procedure abroad, including a BBL and gynecomastia surgery, initially seemed successful but left me wanting more volume in my chest.
Working in medical aesthetics in NYC, I knew I needed a revision. Extensive research led me to Dr. Steinbrech. I scheduled a consultation for chest implant surgery and abdominal etching with excitement but also some apprehension about potential pain.
To my relief, the entire process, from the surgery day to recovery, was smooth and less daunting than anticipated, thanks to the excellent care and support from Dr. Steinbrech and his team. The recovery was manageable, with only some initial discomfort due to the compression garments and foams.
The results have been nothing short of phenomenal. Just two months post-surgery, I confidently showed off my new physique at the beach, and after six months, the transformation is incredible. The scarring is minimal and fading quickly, and I'm confident that it will be barely noticeable in a year.
Dr. Steinbrech has truly exceeded my expectations. If you're considering pec implants, he is undoubtedly the best choice. My previous surgeries required multiple corrections, but Dr. Steinbrech's expertise ensured a perfect result on the first attempt. His team is equally remarkable, always ready to assist and answer any questions. The investment in this procedure has been absolutely worth it. My chest looks natural and perfectly suits my body. I'm beyond thrilled with the outcome and highly recommend Dr. Steinbrech and his team for anyone seeking a similar transformation.

It takes a lot to impress me, so I don't pen many reviews. Nevertheless, when I witness someone going the extra mile and when I receive value from my investment, I make it a habit to let others know. Sometimes in life, we are fortunate to meet truly inspiring people; people that genuinely care and want to make a positive difference. Moreover, these inspirational people faithfully live by the Golden Rule; “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” These difference makers live with purpose, passion, and by design, to faithfully influence people’s lives. I suggest that Dr. Steinbrech, Joe, and the rest of his their team are these rare individuals. I could make this a long email detailing the many things Dr. S. has done to impress me, but I will make this a short kudos dispatch in the spirit of brevity by saying that if you are a male and considering cosmetic surgery, you must give Dr. S and his team an opportunity to earn your trust and confidence, as he epitomizes what Napoleon Hill said many years ago, “When you truly believe that the habit of going the extra mile is the only acceptable way to conduct yourself in your dealings with others when you are driven by a burning desire to serve your fellow man, you will be rewarded both financially and professionally.” I put forth that people like Dr. S., Joe, and the rest of the team are not the best because they work hard. They work hard because they are the best. Dr. Steinbrech is my kind of Doc, and I was incredibly fortunate to have him perform three surgeries during the past six years and I could not be more pleased with the results and his caring demeanor. I job well done, Dr. S, Joe, and the rest of the gang. I am grateful.

The heading my my review says it all...."Excellent Results Beyond My Wildest Expectations"

At the age of 65 years old, I honestly didn't expect the results to be amazing...mesmerizing...incredible. But they were...and are.

I never thought that I would have back the physique that I had at the age of 26. But at the age of 65, when I look in the mirror a 26 year old physique is reflected back at me. I'm in awe...everyone who has seen me is in awe. Dr. Steinbrech achieved for me what I thought would never be possible again.

As we get older we dream of what it would be like to look the way we did when we were younger...and of course...we chalk it up to pipe dreams and fantasy. But these results are real...something that I never imagined could really happen.

When I decided to go forward with my abdominoplasty, liposuction, and pectoral lift I was hoping to turn back the clock by 20 years. Never did I...in my wildest hopes...imagine that the clock would be turned back by almost 40 years. But here I am...a 65 year old man...with a 26 year old physique.

Thank you, Dr. Steinbrech.

I am so glad I found Dr. Steinbrech. I had a male enhancement procedure done by him involving filler. His focus on men is what caught my attention, but my experience with him and his entire team is what led me to write this review. There's no doubt Dr. Steinbrech is skilled and understands the male body. His technique made that very clear. But what I appreciated even more was his personable, professional and caring approach. And not just his, but his entire team's! Joe, the patient adviser, made my experience wonderful. Big shoutout to him! And the nurses were all super nice and down to earth, which made for a very comfortable experience. Highly recommend!

I went to consult with Dr S after a friend had gone to him and had a great result. Let me start by saying that everyone at the practice is extremely personable, laid back and knowledgable. Joe and Patrick are great people. Dr. S speaks like a man who has been doing this for a very long time. Listen to him, leave your ego at the door and watch the magic unfold. I went to Dr S to realize the final step in my weight loss journey. I had lost 110 Lb in total and had some skin I needed to get rid of. We did a 360 tuck (which I was hesitant about in terms of having a large scar), however, in hindsight, it was the only move to make to achieve perfection! I also did some lipo and body banking. I am now approximately 3 weeks post op and I can honestly say that everytime I look at myself in the mirror; I smile. That’s why we get these procedures done, right? I am so happy and I know my results are not even fully mature yet. The rest will be up to me in terms of upkeep. This man is a magician, he’s an artist - a sculptor. I can’t leave a high enough review. Really. There are good amateurs - and then there are great professionals. Dr S happens to be the latter.

Here are some updated pics. Keep going everyone. Train and watch your results mature. Doctor S is a master. Cannot be happier. Changed my life for the better. Thank you to all………………………………….

At a very young age, I was constantly picked on for my "man boobs" and it has constantly been a source of stress my entire life. For nearly 15 years I've worn a chest compression garment to flatten my chest. Despite lots of exercise and weight loss, the problem only got worse with sagging skin. I feel like Dr Steinbrech and his team gave me an aspect of my masculinity back. I am still heavily recovering from the surgery with some swelling still, but I am already thrilled with the results. I can't wait to see the team again in about a year for some more work. In total I had pectoral implants, chest skin resection, nipple grafting, light abdominal etching, fat transfer to the pecs, and a tummy tuck. I love everything, but I am the most thrilled with the pectoral implants. They look and feel amazing. Now I am confident that when I lose weight, I won't be adding to the problem by adding even more excess skin. If you have the means to work with Steinbrech (he's not for budget shoppers) then you should seriously consider him. This was my first plastic surgery (it won't be my last) and I'm so glad I came here. But I won't lie to you ... recovery was BRUTAL particularly the first week. But pain is beauty, so they say. I am lucky to report that I had no complications. I will upload more pics in the coming months as the scar fade.

Here is 8 months post op and also the pre op photos for the work I am having done with dr steinbrech next week.

Next week I am getting bicep and deltoid implants, muscle shadowing, and a touch up on abs with liposculpture.

The secret is out! Dr. Steinbrech has a magic wand that he uses to achieve plastic surgery perfection. I don't care when he tells me he doesn't, after going in for gynecomastia surgery and HD liposuction of the pectorals it's obvious no ordinary human could accomplish such a feat with his level of pristine craftsmanship. Definitely has a magic wand, or he's an alien that probably also helped build the Egyptian pyramids. Either way I am very grateful for selecting him out of all the top plastic surgeons I reviewed in the US and Europe.

When I look in the mirror now, I still cannot believe my eyes! I'm a 59 year old male who now has the ads, mid section and glutes of a 30 year old! It's unbelievable!

During my consult, Dr Steinbrech provided his recommendations that would yield the best results. I trusted his assessment and I am beyond satisfied. The results FAR exceeded my expectation. I am now 6 months out from surgery and I still pinch myself when I look in the mirror.

I plan to have Dr S do my face next. Can't wait!!!
