I chose PSS for my Neograft hair transplant and my experience with working with the doctors and professionals there was nothing short of life-changing. My only regret is not reaching out to them sooner!

The procedure itself, and my recovery afterwards, were exactly as carefully explained to me by my PSS care team. I could already tell after a day or two what a success it had been. I felt great the next day, was out and about by a week, and looked completely normal after

I tried Emsculpt to strengthen and tone my legs. I am a big cyclist and wanted to see if Emsculpt could help strengthen my legs when I don't have time to get out and ride. The treatment REALLY contracts the quads, while the "tapping" afterward prevents soreness. I feel like my legs have gotten stronger after the treatment, and more defined. I will post photos shortly. It is a great solution for those of us with crazy busy schedules who want to keep up with our strong gang! I am
My experience from consultation to treatment was stellar. I first heard about the Genevieve treatment from a friend and wanted to see if it was available in my area. I searched the internet and quickly found Plastic Surgery Specialists offered complimentary consultations with a nurse that preforms the treatment and is knowledgeable in its benefits. Having a nurse the really understands my needs was a key as I felt I would get a better and more customized treatment and I was correct.
This review is for the Genevieve vaginal rejuvenation procedure.
The office is beautiful and I was greeted with a smile. The staff is professional, knowledgeable and friendly.
I immediately felt comfortable and had no waiting time.
My practitioner Introduced herself as an RN. We went to the procedure room where we sat and reviewed the procedure and asked about my concerns and questions. I was having the procedure for “sneeze pee”, post menopausal dryness,
I avoided looking at myself in the mirror for a long time. Felt and looked so tired, and old! Did a lot of research on Plastic Surgeons, and chose Plastic Surgery Specialists (about 1 hrs drive away from my house). From the first time I met Dr Poulos and his team I knew I had found the right place to finally give me confidence to do something I have wanted to do for many years. I love my outcome/results. Its been 5 months now and every time I look in the mirror its like seeing
I always have felt so young at heart and enjoy people and meeting new friends. But when I looked in the mirror it wasn't how I felt. After visiting a long time girlfriend I found out she had a lifestyle lift and she looked GREAT. I decided, what was I waiting for! So I did some research and chose PSS, Plastic Surgery Specialists. And I am so glad I did. The facility is beautiful, the staff is the best! I feel like I have personal relationships with several of them now.
First, before I review my motivation and outcome...I would like to applaud this fantastic group of people working for Dr. Hvistendahl, at Plastic Surgery Specialists. Wow, these lovely women really care and go out of their way to accommodate any and all needs, requests and special favors. I am so impressed. And as far as Dr. H is concerned...he truly cares also. He took a long, patient time at our first visit...and then on consecutive visits gave me full attention and even
I had my breast implants removed in July of 2015.. just a few weeks ago. I never did feel comfortable with the implants so I decided to have them removed. I was a 34B prior to implantation and with implants grew to a 34D. I am 5"4 with a small frame weighing in at around 125lbs. I had them for almost 6 years. My recovery was amazing. No complications. i was back to work a few days later. First of all, I want to give Kudos' to the best plastic surgeon in Marin County , California.
I am a very active person - exercising 5-6x wkly. However, I had stubborn fat deposits on my flanks, hips and inner thighs that just would not go away no matter how much I worked out.

During my initial consultation with Dr. Poulos (for a breast augmentation) I asked about adding on Smart Lipo to be performed during my surgery. He looked at my problem areas and confirmed that I would be a great candidate for Smart Lipo. We agreed that it made the most sense for him

Pilates is my jam, I wanted to lift my breasts and stop the nipple slippage. Hvistendal said I did not have enough volume and would need a little 100 cc's or fat transfer. I opted out of the fat transfer due to not wanting more than open procedure. The 'doc' missed my pre-op #1 due to his being in surgery. His assistant Kelly scheduled a phone pre-op, her incompetence added the appt. for PM (11:45 PM) instead of AM. I ended up calling myself---Hvistendal was "just bring me
