Dr. J. Timothy Katzen Plastic Surgery

I’ve been following Dr. Katzen for over 15 years. His work is remarkable. I used to weigh 305 pounds and now weigh between 115-120. After losing 190 pounds I wanted to get a body lift and a leg lift along with other surgeries for all my loose skin. Dr. Katzen is the only doctor that I would ever want to use for any procedure that I was interested in. He is kind, he has thoughtful, he takes the time to explain things to you. His staff is incredible. And he treats them with respect just like he does his patients . He truly cares about you !!!!

Got silicon injection removal and I’m happy with my results. Dr. Katzen bedside manner is a 10 out of 10. Never dismissed any of my concerns or questions I had. Made me feel at ease and that everything will turn out fine and it did. Highly recommend. Called back within 30 minutes no matter what time it was. Again if you want an expert that has been doing this for years he’s your DOCTOR 🧑‍⚕️!!!!

I am a physician and I saw Dr. Katzen for skin removal after massive weight loss. He did a torsoplasty, brachioplasty, hernia repair and 360 body lift. I consulted with multiple other physicians inluding in the NY Metro area, but it was readily apparent that Dr. Katzen was the most experienced to suit my needs. I flew from NJ and was happy to do so, given his experience, results, surgical technique (I watched most of his videos) and his willingness to do everything I wanted in one session. I was and continue to be very healthy at the time of surgery. Aesthetically I could not have asked for more from my results. I know I look amazing both with clothes and without. He came to check on me daily for the several days immediately surgery and was very vested in my recovery and satisfaction. His office is equally amazing with staff that truly care and will aid you on your patient journey. My recovery went so well that 6 months after surgery I ran the Chicago marathon. As a high level physician and physician leader within my health system there is not a negative thing I could say about my experience. Dr. Katzen is a good man, and amazing physician and has a passion for what he does. He cares about his patients and their outcomes. Any remnant of the person I was physically was removed from my body. I would never go to anyone else and the trip to California was life changing. Don't hesitate if you want him to fix you - you only live once and delaying is only less time that you will enjoy your new you. Thanks Dr. Katzen and team!

As I was approaching my 60th birthday, I was thinking is it too late for me in life to have plastic surgery? I had been unhappy with my tummy and breasts for a while. I was always a pretty active person, but for some reason can never get rid of that tummy pouch and well after 2 kids and with age came “ the not so perky breasts”! I decided to go for it! I am so happy that I did. Ended up having an “extended” tummy tuck (incision from hip to hip). I am loving the way my clothes fit me now. No muffin top! And with my breast lift (no implants) I had to buy new bras. I did not need the wired and padded ones any longer. Sports bras work just fine! All in all, a great decision. I can’t wait for the summertime and getting to try on new bathing suits! I’m actually looking at 2 piece ones. which I never wore before due to not feeling confident and comfortable enough. My experience with Dr Katzen was incredible. So attentive from start to end. The staff is so genuine and helpful. Thank you Dr Katzen for listening and delivering me the body I needed to feel super special in. I wasn’t looking to resemble a 21 year old persons body. Ok maybe a 35 year old me again! Dr Katzen works miracles. No regrets!!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Timothy Katzen and his entire team. He performed my leg lift and back lift in 2017, and the results were truly life-changing. His skill is unmatched — his before-and-after photos speak for themselves — but what sets him apart is his results for weight loss patients. His skills are unmatched. Also, his compassion and dedication, answering my calls in the middle of the night when I had concerns. That level of care is rare and unforgettable. In 2025, I booked another surgery with him, but I became pregnant and, tragically, later lost the baby. We had to cancel the procedure, and his office handled everything with so much compassion. They refunded me fully without hesitation, and their kindness during such a painful time meant the world to me. Once my family plans are complete, I will absolutely be returning to Dr. Katzen. He is the best plastic surgeon I’ve ever worked with — brilliant, humble, and genuinely committed to helping his patients. His staff are superstars as well: professional, warm, and incredibly supportive. If you are considering plastic surgery, trust me: you want Dr. Katzen in your corner. He is exceptional in every way.
