WORTH IT
After deciding I was ready to move forward with a neck and deep plane facelift, I dedicated a year to researching the best surgeon for my needs. Several friends recommended Dr. Karolak, so I began following his Instagram page, where I observed the journeys of his patients and was impressed by their subtle yet transformative results.
From the moment I arrived for my consultation, I felt confident I was in good hands. Dr. Karolak’s staff greeted me warmly, and Dr. Karolak took the time to truly listen to my concerns and set realistic expectations. He treated me as a partner in the process—we discussed my goals and his recommendations, and together we determined the best approach.
In the weeks leading up to surgery, I followed Dr. Karolak’s detailed pre-surgical guidelines to ensure the best possible outcome. On the day of surgery, I felt calm and confident and more relaxed than I'd expected, thanks to the supportive staff and Dr. Karolak’s positive, gentle demeanor. He assured me every step of the way how happy I would be with the results. After the procedure, Dr. Karolak spoke with my husband at length about what to expect in terms of pain management and checked in with me later that evening to ensure I was comfortable and address any concerns.
By my post-surgical visit the next day, I was experiencing only mild discomfort, easily managed with Tylenol. Within a couple of days, I barely needed any pain relief. There was some bruising around the neck, but nothing unexpected, and Dr. Karolak monitored my recovery daily for at least two weeks. When I had concerns about mild swelling, he made time to see me after hours and put my mind at ease.
With each follow-up visit, my results continued to improve—surpassing even our expectations. Both Dr. Karolak and I were thrilled with the progress at every stage.
This experience exceeded all my hopes. From the professionalism and kindness of Dr. Karolak’s beautiful staff to his surgical expertise, extensive knowledge, and caring personality, I truly cannot imagine being in better hands. Four months post-surgery, I’ve received so many compliments on my skin, my hair color and overall appearance—people have noticed I look refreshed, but no one has guessed I’ve had any work done. That, to me, is the highest compliment, and I credit Dr. Karolak for restoring my confidence and helping me feel like myself again.
