Just wondering if anyone knows of, or can recommend a good plastic surgeon in the Orlando area.

Thanks!

I found a great plastic and cosmetic surgeon in Orlando. He was in Beverly Hills for a while and you wouldn't believe his education and residency. His name is Jan V. Karlin, M.D. His number is in the phone book. I don't have it close by right now.

Thank you so much! I will give Dt. Karlin a call.
Does he do repairs on plastic surgery mistakes?
I appreciate your help.

I had a varicose vein removed from another doctor over 2 months ago and it wasn't done right so Dr. Karlin is fixing/repairing it. Good luck to you!

I called Dr. Karlin's office yesterday. They were very nice and sympathetic to my concerns. I wish I'd known of him proir to my face lift. Oh well.

I see my ps next Tuesday and plan to speak with him by phone today. I want to give him the opportunity to right the wrong (basically loose, saggy skin under chin)and go from there. I don't like being in this position. I never thought that 4 1/2 weeks after surgery I would be searching to have something fixed.

Thank you for helping me through this journey. I will give Dr. Karlin's name to a frind of mine as well. She is on her 3rd or 4th doctor now trying to get rid of vericose veins. She went last Friday to try again. If she isn't satisfied, I'll tell her about Dr. Karlin.

Best of luck with your vein repair. Hope all goes well.
