I had my in person consult today and surgery with Dr. Deal tomorrow and so far everything has been beyond great. Dr. Deal answered all of my questions and took his time explaining everything in great detail. Jordan was also amazing helping me with my sizing. I’ve also spoke with Becky and Maggie on the phone and they both were very informative and answered all my questions. 10/10 experience I will recommend everyone go here.
I had an incredible experience with Dr. Summers and Dr. Gardner. From my first consultation to post op care, everything was professional, supportive, and thorough. I felt genuinely cared for every step of the way. I highly recommend Dr. Summers to anyone considering plastic surgery, you’ll be in excellent hands. I am glad I chose him for my lower body lift and thigh lift. He understood and sympathized with my concerns and worked with me to reach my goals. I will finally have my confidence back.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Deal and the entire experience I had with my tummy tuck. From the very first consultation, Dr. Deal made me feel completely at ease. He listened carefully to my goals, answered all of my questions thoroughly, and never once made me feel rushed or unsure. His knowledge, professionalism, and kind demeanor instantly gave me confidence that I had chosen the right surgeon. The day of surgery, I felt fully prepared thanks to the way Dr. Deal and his team walked me through every step. His bedside manner is truly exceptional warm, attentive, and genuine. I felt cared for and supported throughout my recovery. The results of my tummy tuck have honestly exceeded my expectations. I feel like myself again actually, better than ever. My confidence has skyrocketed, and I m so grateful for the transformation, not just physically, but emotionally as well. Dr. Deal is a true artist and professional. I have absolutely no complaints and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone considering plastic surgery. Thank you, Dr. Deal, for helping me feel amazing in my own skin again!
I had a tummy tuck with muscle repair and lipo 360 as well as breast augmentation. Dr. Deal was my main surgeon with help from Dr. Summers. They were both great and I’m loving my results! I’m only 5 weeks post op so still recovering and dealing with swelling. I’m a little disappointed I had to have a small vertical scar because my old belly button couldn’t be pulled all the way down, but I’m hopeful it can be taken care of in the second stage surgery. I love my breast augmentation and so happy I didn’t have to have a lift! All the staff at SSA were so nice and accommodating. I also love that I can do virtual post op appts since I don’t live close.
I live a few hours away from Chattanooga and Dr. Deal was very accommodating to that with virtual consultations and follow up appointments. I got 400cc implants and am so happy with the results! I will definitely go back to him for any other surgery needs in the future!
From the very first phone call to schedule my consultation to my current post op appointments, my experience with Dr. Jerimiah Mason and his rockstar staff has been nothing short of a 10-star performance. Seriously—if there were a red carpet for surgical teams, they’d be strutting down it. Dr. Mason performed my breast lift, and let me just say… the girls are back and better than ever. Perky, proud, and defying gravity like they’ve had a pep talk from Beyoncé. I walked in unsure and walked out feeling confident, feminine, and like I finally got “me” back. Dr. Mason performed my breast lift with such skill and care, and the results have truly changed how I feel about myself. For the first time in a long time, I feel confident, feminine, and proud of my reflection. It wasn’t just a procedure—it was a gift to myself, and I’ll forever be grateful. Dr. Mason is truly an artist when it comes to body transformation. He didn’t just perform a procedure—he restored my self-confidence and helped me feel empowered in my own skin again. Every single person—from the front desk to the nurse anesthetist—treated me with kindness, respect, and just the right amount of hand-holding. I never felt like just another patient—I felt like their top priority (and maybe a little like a VIP). If you’re considering this procedure, stop hesitating. Call Dr. Mason. You’ll thank me.
AMAZING!! Dr. Summers and his staff answered every question, concern, worry I had! They took amazing care of me before/after surgery and I’m loving my results! I had lipo 360, hernia and muscle repair, and breast augmentation.
I am 5 months post op from tummy tuck, lipo, and breast implants. Dr. Summers is a master my scars look so good and my belly button looks so natural. I am so happy I chose him to do my surgery. He is an amazing surgeon he was always very calm and I just felt like he actually cared and had my best interest always. Life changing for me in so many ways. I cannot thank him enough for giving me my life back.
I first discovered Dr. Mason on Instagram through a video where he was reviewing a case study I had participated in. After exploring more of his work, I was impressed and decided to contact Southern Surgical Arts to schedule a Zoom consultation with him. Going into it, I knew I wanted a breast lift, fat transfer, and possibly a revision or extension of a previous tummy tuck I’d had elsewhere, which I wasn’t fully satisfied with. I was very clear that I didn’t want implants, and unlike other surgeons I had spoken to, Dr. Mason completely respected that—he never pushed them on me. From that first conversation, I had a strong feeling he was the right surgeon for me. During our consultation, he explained that with fat grafting, most patients require multiple sessions to achieve their ideal look, whereas implants offer a more predictable outcome. I appreciated his honesty and was 100% comfortable with that information. About a month later, I came into the office for my pre-op appointment and met Dr. Mason in person. He was a bit shy at first but very personable and easy to talk to. We thoroughly reviewed the surgical plan, he answered all of my questions thoughtfully, and I left feeling confident and reassured. My breasts had quite a bit of asymmetry due to years of breastfeeding, weight gain, and then significant weight loss. I told him I just wanted them to be “sisters—not cousins”—and he completely understood. The morning of surgery, I arrived for my appointment and was warmly welcomed by the staff. Everyone was punctual, professional, and kind. We reviewed the plan again before he did his markings. I asked a few last-minute questions, and he answered them patiently. Everything moved quickly from there, and the next thing I remember was waking up comfortably in my hotel room. That evening, Dr. Mason’s fellow called to check in on me, which I really appreciated. The following day, I returned to the office for a post-op check. Dr. Mason examined everything, took photos, and made sure I was comfortable and doing well. While I knew it wasn’t the final result yet, I could already tell I was going to be happy with the outcome. I’m now three weeks post-op and couldn’t be more pleased. Dr. Mason corrected the asymmetry in my breasts with the lift and fat grafting, gave me excellent liposuction results, and fixed the areas I was unhappy with from my previous tummy tuck. Dr. Mason is truly a gem, and I’m so grateful I found him.
My experience with Dr. Mason through the MedSpa was exceptional. He is very down to earth and easy to talk to about concerns. His Assistant, Stormy, is a God send and provides the best customer service to their patients. She is extremely knowledgeable and makes you feel welcomed. I love SSA because they have everything you need in one building!
