    Disappointing breast revision surgery. No cleavage or asymmetry of right smaller breast which were my paramount wishes. Even gave him a post it note before surgery for a reminder. All went ignored. DR Z's reason is there were simply no bigger implants available in the office so he used the biggest one he had and implanted same size in each breast so I am left with smaller same right misshapen breast with a developed dent and ripple due to it being deflated in upper pole. It needed a bigger implant for pocket he created. I have an O shaped left breast with the smaller U shaped right breast. I was told in an emergency like this his rep would rush over with bigger or smaller implants if needed. He did not execute this promise and my correction went ignored totally. I also believe a bigger next size would have been more to my liking where I could get the cleavage I wanted. Was not even tried as they were again not available. This is just sloppy and not exemplary surgical work. I am also left with 3 inch jagged incisions that went above the inframammary crease when I was told only 2 inch lines. He has offered revision with partial cost and no detailed surgical plan but to "play around" when in my chest. I was never contacted again. This is not acceptable and I can no longer trust this surgeon. He never listened to my needs and told me I write and speak too much. Obviously not enough where he listened and followed my wishes. He proved not to be the world class dedicated, honest nor detailed, artistic, caring, perfectionist or meticulous surgeon I needed. My breasts show this. Very unscrupulous with me. Don't let this surgeon ruin your surgical dreams and leave you crying as he did me.

    I’ve met with several plastic surgeons, and Dr. Zuckerman was the first one I felt completely at ease with. I loved his authenticity, his cool, calm vibe, and the way he took the time to walk me through every step. From the moment I walked through the door, he and his entire team made me feel welcome, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. They answered every question with patience and never made me feel rushed. I’m now 6 weeks post-op from having my tummy tuck surgery, and I couldn’t be happier with my results so far — and I know it’ll only continue to get better. Dr. Zuckerman’s attention to detail and the support from his amazing staff have made this experience better than I ever expected. Thank you, Dr. Zuckerman and team. Truly grateful for all of you!
