Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

The worst facelift ever
He is the worst plastic surgeon. Stay away. The facelift he did on me left me with scar tissue that bothers me constantly…don’t go near this guy…expensive and awful work

Chin Augmentation + Lipo
I made one of the best decisions of my life by scheduling a consultation with Dr. Lorenc. Having received chin filler since the age of 21, I decided to consult with Dr. Lorenc at 25, and he recommended a permanent solution - a chin augmentation combined with chin lipo for the ultimate power duo.From pre-op to post-op, the care I received was seamless, and the staff, including the anesthesiologist, were extremely comforting. I was quite nervous about undergoing my first surgery, but their support put me at ease.Two years later, I cannot emphasize enough how pleased I am with my decision to have a chin augmentation. My side profile has transformed tremendously, and the compliments keep coming. It's needless to say that I visit the office for my bi-yearly toxin and filler treatments.Dr. Lorenc and his team have not only enhanced my physical appearance but also boosted my confidence. I wholeheartedly recommend!

I went in 5 or more other Drs, before him because the issue with my eyes, I think that I should get more restilane all others disagree with me or are afraid to fix it. He not only fix it but make me look 10 years younger, Im 46 years old and he basically lift my face, I know that is not forever but the great news is that I'm not a candidate for surgery yet.

I did not have good surgical results and found his demeanor to be extremely arrogant and not transparent. He looks good online because of his PR and press connections. Don't be fooled by this. Ask to see many before and after photos of recent patients and be sure to do your homework. I would not recommend this surgeon for a surgical procedure.
