No Regrets!
I first found Dr Hendricks in 2019 through a recommendation for my specific need for skin and cosmetic care after many consultations with local surgeons near my home in Florida. I immediately was drawn to his passion and knowledge of skin. His bedside manner is unmatched. I knew immediately that Dr Hendricks was the best choice for my needs after my first consultation. I left feeling like he saw my vision, was confident in the potential for great results, and he treated me like a friend, not just a nameless case to add to his portfolio. The surgery was a complete success.
In late September 2024 I returned to Dr. Hendricks for a deep plane facelift. I was nervous as I had never had a facial surgery, but was surprised at how simple he made the process. The incisions are hidden in my hair line so they aren’t visible, with one under my chin that was so small it didn’t leave a scar at all. The pain was over all minimal and healing process was pretty fast. I noticed results within weeks that continue to improve still 4 months later. Because of the technique that Dr Hendricks used to pull my skin tight, it was so natural and the results were so gradual that no one noticed that I had a “facelift” but would ask what I was doing to my skin because it looked so good. Most thought I had started Botox treatment, which I have actually never had.
Most recently (January 2025) I again traveled back to Dr Hendricks for some skin resurfacing, wrinkle reduction, acne scar treatment, and skin tightening. He suggested a laser treatment called the Clear-lift using the erbium laser. The results from this treatment were immediate. The procedure was nearly painless, a 3/10 at most. It looked and felt like a sunburn but the redness and burn feeling was gone by morning. I looked in the mirror and noticed that my scars were no longer dark or purple in nature. They were my skin tone, much smaller, and nearly invisible. My pores were so small even my esthetician, who knows my skin better than I do, asked what I was using. A week later, he harvested fat from my stomach and injected it into all those places in our face we naturally lose fat with age- the forehead, temples, cheeks, smile lines, and he even added some to my lips to give them a natural, fuller look. The results were exactly what I wanted- firmer tighter skin, erasing the few small lines left after the facelift that usually only filler could fill. This process is more natural and lasts forever. You won’t have to go back every few months to do it again.
During this same visit to Newport Beach, he used another device on my outer, inner and back of my thighs that had loose skin and irregularities of the fat from weight loss. This machine uses ultrasound to melt and smooth my fat, then switched to radio frequency to smooth cellulite, reduce my stretch marks, and tightens the skin, all without the use of liposuction or anesthesia. This process is virtually pain free and the melted fat is just passed through the lymphatic system with time. This process also delivered immediate changes and results that have continued to improve with time.
After arriving back home from this most recent “Spa Trip” ( which I called it since it was more relaxing than painful), my first appointment with someone I typically see on a weekly basis said, “I’m sorry if I was staring at you when you first walked in but you look so good. You look like you’re 29 again!” This was just 2 weeks after my treatment. I found this funny because I told Dr Hendricks that I wanted him to use whatever lasers that would make me look like I was not a single day over 30! So well done, sir. Mission accomplished!
I plan on returning for several more laser treatments on my other problem areas. I’m in my 40’s and have never felt as confident in my body as I do now since meeting Dr. Hendricks just 6 years ago. I trust him completely.
I highly recommend Dr Hendricks, whether you live in Southern California or on the east coast as I do. It’s worth the trip no matter where you are. He’ll help you become the best "you" that you can possibly be and quite possibly you’ll leave with a "new best friend"!
