“Dr. Weintraub is the 'Da Vinci' of plastic surgeons. I love my facelift and I’m recommending him to my friends. His skillful eye restores and sculpts youth and beauty by discussing all options available without any pressure. He not only performed my facelift but improved other areas of my face that we both agreed needed improvement…

I was starting to feel self conscious about my appearance, as unlike years ago, I was now the oldest person in my department and was getting tired of people telling me I looked tired first thing in the morning, even when I wasn’t!

I was looking for a natural looking uplift that wouldn’t appear obvious I had work done, but instead would look like I just came back from a long vacation and had that refreshed, “you look great!” appearance again, and most of all, I didn’t want to look different…. The same “me”, but ten years younger.

Dr. Weintraub’s approach and philosophy appealed to me. When I discussed my concerns, at first, I asked for restylane, as I didn’t have much in the way of cheek bones and thought that would do it. It looked great, but he did tell me that if I wanted a permanent fix, surgery was the way to go, as I was no longer in my 40’s but well past late 50’s.

As with any surgery, I visited 2 other plastic surgeons, one recommend for his low prices. Both had lower prices, but when I saw the before and after photos of past patients, well, to be totally frank, I wanted to run out of their offices! Their patients faces were so “tugged” and unnatural looking. In one photo of an eyelid lift, the woman looked “startled”….

I knew neither surgeon was for me and price should never be a determining factor when deciding on something as precious as your physical appearance, especially your face!

I went back to Dr. Weintraub and discussed my experience with the other surgeons. He made some suggestions and after looking through books of before and after photos of his previous patients, I knew Dr. Weintraub was the only surgeon I would let perform my facelift, and I scheduled my appointment.

The day of my surgery the nurse who greeted me couldn’t have put me more at ease. Her kind and caring manner made me feel I was in the best of hands.

Dr. Weintraub went over everything with me beforehand and made sure I had no additional questions. His delicate and caring manner was exactly what I was looking for as I was confident that I would come out looking natural and not overdone or fake.

Surgery went great, and after following his post op instructions I was up and about and loving my new refreshed look! I even had him fix my nose that before drooped when I smiled, and that little adjustment also made such a difference and made me look younger and my profile so much better! I love my nose now!!

We also discussed having a mole removed on the side of my eye. He was right, removing it made my eyes look much more appealing and bright!!

​​So what more can I say about the kind Dr. Weintraub and his staff…. Wonderful!! My facelift was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made, it not only improved my image, but also my self confidence. Best of all, no one says I look tired anymore, even when I am!” 

“It has to do with Time. You want to cheat time. You want the surgeon to erase the ravages of time from your face and body; create an illusion of a more youthful you. If you are reading this you will be doing your due diligence- to decide who you might trust to undertake such a dramatic thing. It is surgery; do not take this decision lightly.

I am an artist and a medical professional. When I decided to have my surgeries I understood that the surgeon must be an artist, not merely a great technician. I chose Barry Weintraub in part because he has a classic aesthetic sense of beauty.

It is now one full decade since my surgeries, which were extensive. A face and neck lift, and a breast lift which required the removal of encapsulated implants (done by another surgeon years prior). And although no one stops time, my results far exceeded my expectations. The remarkable thing is that ten years later the results are still extra- ordinary. My chin line is sharp, no jowls appeared even with some weight fluctuations, and the breasts remain soft and lifted.

Barry Weintraub is, based on my long association with physicians and my personal experience, the best there is.

So it is not just about time. It is about how you feel and look over time, course. But do you look like your best self, are you relaxed when you look in the mirror? You want to live in your face and body, you are not a mannequin. Better yet, are people not at all sure you have had something done?

I cannot recommend Dr. Weintraub, or his staff, or the atmosphere of his office, more highly.

Important update !!
​I am now 15 years from my initial surgery with Dr. Weintraub and my neck and face and breasts are still wonderful. He did indeed cheat time a little. Not all plastic surgeries still look so great this many years later. I thank him every day, not just for cheating time, but for standing the test of it!”
