J. Timothy Katzen Plastic Surgeon MD, FACS

Dr. Timothy was heaven sent. I am beyond happy with my results. Him and his staff were with me every step of the way to make sure I had a great recovery . He truly cares and I will always be thankful to him.

I am 51 years old but my eyelids tell a different story. After gastric sleeve, I lost 129 pounds. I had saggy skin all over. I was able to hide my skin in my clothes with the help of body compression garments, but I could not hide my face. When I am with my teenage daughter, people think I am her grandma. I had an upper and lower blepharoplasty with Dr. Katzen. He is a top notch surgeon with a heart of kindness. He made me look 20 years younger!

I met Dr. Katzen along with two other surgeons at a conference two years ago. I had three consultations to see what each surgeon had to say. Without a doubt, I chose Dr. Katzen. He seemed the most experienced with weight loss patients and I was most impressed with his kindness and mannerism. No surprise to me, my body lift turned out fantastic. Dr. Katzen and I envisioned these results, and he made them a reality.

I could not begin to tell you how much I appreciate Dr. Katzen for the time he dedicated to me and the wonderful results he gave me. Dr. Katzen held my hand when I felt nervous and assured me everything was going to be okay. He took the time to answer all my questions without judgement. I just got engaged and I am excited that I can fit into the wedding dress of my dreams. After my wedding, I have one more procedure to do. I'll be seeing you again, Dr. Katzen!

Dr. Katzen is the best. You will not find a more talented, caring and compassionate doctor to take care of your reconstructive surgeries after weight loss. There are not enough descriptive words to describe how Dr. Katzen changed me and thus my life. I am forever grateful!

After gaining and losing weight, my abdomen needed major help. I can't say I had a lot of fat but more than what I cared for. I underwent a tummy tuck with Dr. Katzen. My "new" tightened abdomen has never been so tiny. There was also an extra bonus that came with surgery. My belly button was not so cute before, Dr. Katzen re-created one for me and it's cute now. So thankful for Dr. Katzen's work. He's great!

I had gastric sleeve and lost 122 pounds. I hated the way my arms looked. I researched online and came across Dr. Katzen's webpage. When I came for an initial consultation, I felt a connection right away. Dr. Katzen was humble and very experienced with the weight loss patients. Within a month, I had my arm lift surgery. Recovery was so much better than I expected, minimal pain. It feels so good to not have saggy arms anymore.

At 360 pounds, I was getting close to being wheelchair bound. I had gastric sleeve and lost 210 pounds. The visuals of my excess skin was disturbing. I consulted with 4 other surgeons before meeting Dr. Katzen. Once I met him, I knew he was the right surgeon to do the job. I had a body lift where Dr. Katzen removed 15 lbs of fat and skin. My whole transformation is like a fairy tale. I just love Dr. Katzen for making my dreams come true.

Being young and obese was tough. I topped the scales at over 260 pounds. Gastric sleeve was the best decision I made to better my health and image (so I thought). I found the saggy excessive skin made me feel just as insecure as when I was obese. I found the best doctor to perform my body lift, Dr. Katzen. He did a beautiful job and helped me gain confidence in myself. I no longer feel ashamed of my body and skin.

My top weight was 420 lbs, I lost 177 lbs. After weight loss surgery, I worked out and ate healthier but my pannus was always in the way. The amazing Dr. Katzen performed a panniculectomy on me where he took off 34 lbs of fat and skin from my abdomen. When I awoke from surgery, looked down and saw my pannus gone, I cried like a baby. I couldn't believe I no longer have to live with all the hanging skin.

Since the panniculectomy, I came back to Dr. Timothy Katzen for a brachioplasty and medial thigh lift. He's the best!
