SURGERY AFTER MASSIVE WEIGHT LOSS
(ABDOMINOPLASTY (TUMMY TUCK) / LIPOSUCTION / ARM LIFT / BREAST LIFT)
T.C. / NEW YORK
Dr. Kolker and everyone on his staff are the best! After losing 180 pounds, and having two unsuccessful Abdominoplasty surgeries with a different surgeon, I called Dr. Kolker's office. From the moment I spoke to the receptionist, I knew this was the place for me ….. I cannot thank Dr. Kolker and his team enough for the way I feel now. It was the best decision I ever made.
Everyone is always so kind and supportive. Dr. Kolker is a true artist. At my consultation, he listened to what I envisioned and worked with me to create a plan for losing all my extra skin and restoring my body to where it would have been if I had not been 330 pounds. He suggested we do two surgeries...the first on my upper body, with a breast lift and arm lift; the second a tummy tuck and a thigh lift with some liposuction. He told me I could do as much or as little as I liked.
The upper body (Mastopexy & Brachioplasty) was done at the surgical office and it was a breeze. The attending nurse was kind and supportive. By the second day, I was out and about, and a week later I was back at work. It has been six months and I am so happy!
The second surgery was done eight weeks later. It was a much more involved surgery, done at the hospital; but again, Dr. Kolker and his team did not let me down. I finally have the body that I had dreamed of. The recovery for this surgery was longer than the other, but everything turned out perfectly. I even had Dr. Kolker’s cell phone number and could call him at any time. I didn't need to call much but the one time that I did have a question, he picked up immediately and was incredibly supportive. Each time I came in for something...be it removal of stitches, or just a check-up, Dr. Kolker was just as excited about my progress as I was. He gave me tons of time and attention at every visit. He worked with me on my vision of what I wanted. Now my fiancé, who was with me throughout the process, is so confident in Dr. Kolker that he is about to become a patient!
I cannot thank Dr. Kolker and his team enough for the way I feel now. It was the best decision I ever made.

SURGERY AFTER MASSIVE WEIGHT LOSS (ARM LIFT / BREAST LIFT)
N.F. / NEW YORK
I have to admit, the experience I had with Dr. Kolker and his whole staff was far more then I ever expected. From my first consultation to the year post surgery follow-up, I have felt impressed with every aspect of this process. I lost a tremendous amount of weight (105 lbs) and was disappointed that even after all that weight loss, I couldn’t wear what I wanted. Not even a size 10 body could make me feel happy about my hanging skin and a sagging chest. Regardless of the size on the tag (which was my goal and what I strived for), I couldn’t wear a bathing suit or a sleeveless shirt. I felt that I had gone through all that effort and didn’t get the result that I wanted, which was simply to feel confident and proud of my body. I was saddened that i was not feeling happy with my weight loss and I knew there had to be a better solution. That is where Dr. Kolker and his team came in.
I wasn't completely sure that I would go through with the surgery in the beginning. I just wanted to do research to see what could be done. My drooping arms and breasts bothered me so much.
I was so impressed with Dr. Kolker’s honesty and the professionalism of the office that I just kept progressing with each step of the process. I was SURE that at some point I was going to chicken out, but every time I took a step towards the surgery, I felt more and more confident with Dr. Kolker and the whole staff.
The week before my Brachioplasty and Mastopexy (arm lift and breast lift, actually, an upper body lift), I had a mini panic attack (which is completely normal). I went right to the office and I felt like I was sitting down with a bunch of friends to discuss what I was afraid of. Dr. Kolker and Jillian (the office manager) were amazingly understanding and thoroughly explained the process; during the surgery and the weeks that followed. It was wonderfully re-assuring and I basically skipped down to the office on the morning of the surgery.
A bigger part of the success story is post surgery and the result. Dr. Kolker and his staff were incredibly accommodating with all my inquiries and questions. The post-op appointments went well and I felt fantastic…being happy with the care and effort of the staff truly assisted with my healthy outlook.
Now, I am more then a year post-op. I have arms and a chest to be proud of. I have finally attained that proud feeling of losing the weight because I feel that I have now completed what I have set out to do. Losing weight is only half the battle…. feeling confident and proud of my new body is the real reward. I could not have done that without the amazing talent of Dr. Kolker and the support of his staff.
I made an investment in my happiness, my body and my self-esteem. I am so proud of my decision to have the arm lift and breast lift. I am proud of my surgery result and I am proud (now) of feeling like the person that I set out to accomplish more then 3 years ago ! I have Dr. Kolker to thank for it !

SURGERY AFTER MASSIVE WEIGHT LOSS
(LOWER BODY LIFT /MASTOPEXY / THIGHT LIFT)
B.P. / NEW YORK
After my gastric bypass surgery in 2003 I lost 150 pounds. I was so incredibly delighted, but was left with excess skin of my tummy, arms, and thighs, and very saggy breasts. Still in my early twenties, this was so difficult to deal with in the wake of the amazing weight loss.
I was reluctant to consider more surgery, but I came to terms with the fact that no exercise or diet regimen would be able to correct what I had left "hanging around" after my bypass. I did my due diligence, and actually met with multiple plastic surgeons. After consultations with four other surgeons, I finally met Dr. Adam Kolker. From the moment I walked into his office, I felt an incredible sense of warmth and professionalism. The staff was just wonderful; they were so inviting, comforting, and organized. Dr. Kolker came to the waiting room to greet me, and after five seconds, I knew that he would be my surgeon. He was so warm and friendly that I felt like I knew him forever. During our consultation, he showed me many photographs of his excellent work that were simply unbelievable. He was so confident and understanding, and after having gone through surgery with him and seeing his incredible work and caring firsthand, I realize that I could not have made a better choice. I had a Mastopexy and Brachioplasty (breast lift and arm lift) in July 2004, followed by a lower body lift in January 2005, and I look and feel amazing. Dr. Kolker is a fantastic surgeon and a wonderful person… he has made a girl who was so self-conscious and uncomfortable feel absolutely beautiful. I can now wear a dress, and even a bathing suit, and look in the mirror and just smile.

SURGERY AFTER MASSIVE WEIGHT LOSS (LOWER BODY LIFT)
P.D. / NEW YORK
I was quite self-conscious when I first made the decision to seek plastic surgery help following my 100 pound weight loss. The bariatric surgery I had had two years earlier had been a success, but it left me with quite a bit of unsightly, unwanted, hanging abdominal skin (my "apron").
The rashes and sores I would get in the area where skin rested on skin were quite painful at times and just having the overlap there made clothes shopping not much more fun or easy than it had been before losing any weight. With my husband's support, I asked my bariatric surgeon for a plastic surgeon recommendation. He very readily gave me Dr. Kolker's name and number. From the very first phone call to schedule my consultation, I knew that I had made the right choice: not just to have my procedure done, but to have it done with Dr. Kolker. I have been treated with only the utmost in professionalism, courtesy and kindness since first visiting Dr. Kolker's office. My entire experience, from dealing with my insurance company, to post-operative office visits has been extremely positive.
At my consultation Dr. Kolker seemed to know exactly how I was feeling and what results I was looking for. He explained that I would need not just a tummy tuck, but also a full lower-body lift with some liposuction. It would be an extensive procedure, but would be the right thing to do. He put my mind at ease as he answered all of my husband’s questions and mine. The before-and-after photos of other patients he had worked on were truly amazing. I left the office elated. A few weeks later my insurance was approved and we had a surgery date. (The girls in the office were so patient and helpful whenever I'd call to get an insurance update.) Dr. Kolker was incredible throughout the procedure. Every question I had was answered immediately and it seemed as though Dr. Kolker's only interest was my well-being.
The best surgeons are often stereotyped as having very poor "people skills" or no "bedside manner". Dr. Kolker completely breaks this stereotype. His friendly smile and warm manner made me feel like his only patient. Today I am four and a half months post-op. My results are absolutely amazing. I've gone from wearing a size 16/18 jeans (down from a 26 before my bariatric surgery) to a size12 and from not wanting to even wear a bathing suit to wearing my very first bikini this past summer. I can truly say that I don't remember being happier or more self-confident at any other time in my life.

Lower Body Lift
POST BARIATRIC SURGERY (LOWER BODY LIFT)
C.G. / NEW YORK
I had lap band surgery in 2004 and lost 90lbs. I had so much skin causing me back pain that I decided to have plastic surgery. I found the best plastic surgeon in Manhattan, Dr. Adam Kolker.
I highly recommend him if you are looking for a plastic surgeon. My first impression of Dr. Kolker was, "this is the one!" As soon as I met him and shook his hand, I knew. He is warm, friendly, and highly skilled, his knowledge and professionalism surpass any other surgeon I met before. My impression of him has never changed it only got better. His office staff are also warm and friendly, organized young professionals who are always willing to help. They always have a smile on their face and greet you with a warm welcome. I only have good things to say about Dr. Kolker and his staff; they have given me a new life free of back pain and excess skin.
You should know that he is #1 in my book and others that I have referred agree. His work is meticulous, his talent and knowledge exceptional. His before and after care programs are very informative and include a vitamin regimen to help you heal faster with less bruising and follow up visits after surgery are weekly. Dr. Kolker is very encouraging and informative at follow up visits and encourages a healthy lifestyle including diet and exercise.
Dr. Kolker addressed all risks of surgery in informative layman terms, which were easy to comprehend and took the time to answer my many questions without hesitation. I would rate him a top surgeon with excellent surgical competence and an excellent bedside manner. I cannot say enough or thank him enough for the life changing surgeries he has performed on me. I will be forever grateful and thank God each day for finding a surgeon like Dr. Kolker.

LOWER BODY LIFT / THIGH LIFT
M.S. / NEW YORK
I've never been to a doctor's office where every member of the staff was as nice, polite, and helpful as everyone I met in Dr. Kolker's office. I felt very comfortable from start to finish.
Dr. Kolker is an artist that demands smashing results from himself and his staff. The doctor is a perfectionist that has positively changed the way I feel about my appearance, and self esteem. I've recommended this office to several people already, and I am certainly going to continue to share your office with so many of my friends. I'm very, very happy with my results and sing your praises regularly! Thank you so very much!!!

LOWER BODY LIFT
A.L. / NEW JERSEY
When I arrived at the office of Dr. Kolker for my initial consultation I overheard several of the patients extolling his virtues. I then met Dr. Kolker and I instantly felt comfortable and could see what his patients were talking about. I immediately contracted him to do what was a very involved procedure called a Lower Body Lift.
The operation was scheduled about five months later. Prior to the operation a pre op appointment was scheduled. During this meeting Dr. Kolker told me that he could go ahead with the procedure and it would be good but it would not be an "A plus" result, (this was because I hadn't lived up to my responsibility of coming into his office in better shape). Well this went on for the better part of two years. I wasted a lot of the doctor’s time; but he never lost patience with me and we were finally ready for surgery.
Dr. Kolker was all about safety first but it was clear that it was not at the expense of his artistry and perfectionism. It is now six months after the operation and the result is beyond anything I could have possibly imagined. I am so fortunate that I walked into his offices two and a half years ago.

Dr. Kolker and his staff are the most extraordinary people you could ever find to take care of you! His staff goes out of their way to be helpful and they treat you as if you were family. This doctor is the most caring, wonderful doctor I have ever had.
He not only is an extremely talented doctor but he shows genuine concern about you and your personal needs at all times. This is one doctor that you have access to whenever you need him. He made my recovery so much easier because he addressed all of my concerns in a way that not only answered any questions, or worries I may have had, but made me feel comfortable expressing myself to him. Thanks to Dr. Kolker I have an entirely new look, and a new outlook on life, as well!

Tummy Tuck
ABDOMINOPLASTY (TUMMY TUCK)
R.F. / CONNECTICUT
I found Dr. Kolker as I searched online for "top plastic surgeons in NYC". When his website came up, I had recalled that many years ago, I had undergone an emergency appendectomy and the resident at the hospital that assisted with my surgery was named Adam Kolker. I couldn't tell you the name of the attending surgeon.
I didn't think it was possible that it was the same doctor, then I opened his website and I was astounded. I had recalled Dr. Kolker for his amazingly kind and reassuring manner. Not to mention the fact that it was his side of the scar that healed to perfection, as the attending had even admitted! I was more than thrilled to learn that Dr. Kolker had gone on to become such a renowned plastic surgeon and knew from the moment I completed my consultation that I was in the best hands for my surgery.
The entire staff at AKMD has been so supportive, kind, available and responsive. Dr. Kolker has given me a newfound confidence after my tummy tuck, and I am thrilled to report that I actually wore only bikinis on my summer vacation at the beach for the first time in my life! Dr. Kolker, Jacki, as well as Jillian have been amazing professionals with unparalleled skills. Dr. Kolker operated with an artistic eye, a skilled hand and a warm heart. That's all I needed and my results speak for themselves.

ABDOMINOPLASTY(TUMMY TUCK) / MOMMY MAKEOVER
E.C. / NEW JERSEY
I absolutely LOVE my new body! .... Making the decision to undergo Abdominoplasty surgery did not come easy and it took courage. But, it was a desire that had been building for years and the time was right. Dr Kolker and his staff were absolutely professional every step of the way.
Hereditary abdominal fat cells, two c-sections, and age had taken a toll on my mid section and, therefore, my self-image. Two-piece bathing suits were totally out of the question as my fat was centered on the upper, lower and midriff section, although I was not otherwise overweight. Shopping for clothing had become a chore as zippers never totally zipped and buttons needed to be left open at my waist for comfort. I stopped shopping, as I refused to go to the next size.
Then, Dr Kolker was recommended to me by my dermatologist, and months later my face and body became what I had only dreamed. Every morning when I dress for the day I stop and take a look at the new me and I can't believe the change in my physical appearance. My clothes slip on, button and zip without any effort whatsoever. The midriff and abdominal bulges and fat are gone and instead I see a smooth, flat belly, with a perfectly situated (new) belly button......and, I actually have a waist. The reflection of me puts a smile on my face as I start my day with a very much-improved self-image.
Making the decision to undergo Abdominoplasty surgery did not come easy and it took courage. But, it was a desire that had been building for years and the time was right.

They responded to my every question professionally and without ever making me feel silly or rushed. My calls were accepted or returned in a timely manner and I was encouraged to ask questions. The office environment was aesthetically pleasing, immaculately clean, and comfortable.
The surgical procedure went smoothly and I always felt that I was in highly talented hands, with every attention being paid to perfecting the work of art that Dr Kolker was about to create.
I would like to thank Dr Kolker and his wonderful staff for making my dreams come true and I look forward to a continued professional relationship. I will take every opportunity to share my experience with others who may be thinking of personal enhancements and/or corrections to their physique. Thank you!

ABDOMINOPLASTY (TUMMY TUCK) / MOMMY MAKEOVER
R.E. / NEW YORK
I am a 26-year-old female and a mother of three children. After my last child I wasn't too happy with how my stomach looked. I had very bad stretch marks and a big stomach. I though that there were no solutions to my problem, until I met who I will like to call my "Miracle Doctor", Dr. Kolker. There are no words to explain how I feel after undergoing Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) surgery; the results of my tummy tuck are incredible and you will agree with me after seeing the before and after photos.
Many of my family members and friends couldn't believe their eyes. I have to say that I am very fortunate to have had Dr. Kolker perform my surgery. I have no regrets at all and I would do it again if I had to. For me, "HE IS THE BEST " Thank you, Dr. Kolker and May God bless your skills.

K.K. / NEW JERSEY
From the moment I walked in Dr. Kolker's office, I knew my friend had given me a fabulous recommendation. Dr. Kolker's expertise, experience and great "bedside manner", in addition to the professionalism of his staff, and the welcoming environment (including top notch surgical center), all contributed to my decision to choose Dr. Kolker (for an Abdominoplasty and Liposuction).
Dr. Kolker uses state-of-the-art pain management techniques, and I was shocked at how quickly and easily I recovered. It has been just about 3 months since my surgery and I could not be more pleased with the results. I never would have thought I'd be wearing an itsy-bitsy bikini so soon, but I am and it looks fabulous! Thank you Dr. Kolker and your entire staff, for helping me get to the body I could not have gotten to on my own, which is the body I am meant to be in!

A friend who had been extremely happy with his services referred me to Dr. Kolker approximately 2 years ago. I had been battling with my midsection despite the personal training and intense workout at the gym.
From the moment I first walked into Dr. Kolker's office I felt the professional, caring, and competence of his staff. After consulting with Dr. Kolker I scheduled to have an Abdominoplasty and Liposuction. I can speak from my personal experience that it truly changed my life and I am extremely happy with my results. Aside from being a wonderful and caring human being, his professionalism, skills, knowledge and competence far exceeded anything I could have hoped for.

LIPOSUCTION (INNER AND OUTER THIGHS)
A.T. / NEW YORK
Words cannot express how wonderful my experience has been with Dr. Kolker and his staff. I had always considered the idea of having Liposuction to improve the proportions of my body, but was very scared to take the initiative of contacting a plastic surgeon and to actually go through with the procedure. Dr. Kolker came highly recommended and I decided the least I could do was go for a consultation.
Dr. Kolker's professionalism, confidence, and kind nature put me completely at ease with my decision to have my liposuction procedure. He was very thorough in the consultation and took the time to answer all of my questions. And believe me, I had a lot!
Throughout the duration of my surgery and recovery, Dr. Kolker and his amazing staff were nothing but kind and supportive. I am thankful everyday for my decision to go through with the liposuction and that I found such a wonderful group of professionals to get me through it. They somehow managed to keep me laughing and cheerful through even the hardest parts. I am truly enjoying my new and improved body and confidence. The best way to describe it is that I finally feel at peace with my body.

Dr. Kolker and his staff made me feel at ease from the moment I walked in his office for my consultation for Liposuction surgery. Everyone was friendly and attentive. Dr. Kolker's professionalism and wonderful bedside manner made me feel instantly relaxed and confident.
He explained the Liposuction procedure that I was considering in detail and was so patient with me as I continued to ask questions about what to expect. However, I didn't truly realize what an amazing doctor I had chosen until the day of my procedure during my pre-op exam. Dr. Kolker's attention to detail and aesthetics was unimaginable. I knew by the amount of time he spent with me that I was in excellent hands.

BREAST AUGMENTATION / MOMMY MAKEOVER
K.M. / NEW YORK
Getting a breast augmentation was something I had always thought about doing. However, after giving birth to two children and breastfeeding for 2 1/2 years, it became something I fantasized about. I cannot begin to tell you how much better I feel after finally getting breast implants.
I now look in the mirror and feel proud of the way I look. I receive compliments all the time - not specifically for my breasts (although I do get those too). People tell me how great I look and how I have a certain glow to me. That glow is a renewed confidence that I wear everyday now. My entire experience with Dr. Kolker and his team was such a pleasure and I will forever be grateful to all of them for changing my life.

BREAST AUGMENTATION / MOMMY MAKEOVER/ INJECTIBLES / LASER HAIR REMOVAL / FACIALS
K.F. / NEW YORK
My experience with Dr. Adam Kolker and his staff exceeded all of my expectations. I first had thoughts of breast augmentation after the birth of my second child. I wanted to reclaim my body and was not happy with the way my breasts had decreased in size after each pregnancy making my body disproportionate.
Being small in frame I had concerns about how natural they would look. I wanted to fill out my tops, feel proud of my body but still look professional at work.
Dr. Kolker eased my mind from the moment we met. From the bedside manner that Dr. Kolker has to the warm and friendly staff that works in his office, the entire experience was the best I have ever had. They literally held my hand through the entire process making me feel like so much more than a patient. I looked forward to each of my appointments and left feeling so well taken care of and secure in my decision. I was taken aback at how involved Dr. Kolker was with each concern or question I had and how quickly he returned my calls- even at home. In the end, Dr. Kolker created the most natural and balanced look for my frame.
There is not a day that goes by that I do not wake up and smile over the results of my surgery. Getting dressed went from something that I didn't look forward to, to a happy experience because of how great I look and feel. When visiting my ObGyn for the first time since having the surgery I was thrilled to hear her reaction to my surgery- she was so impressed at how natural and perfect my breasts were for my body- she even asked me for Dr. Kolker's name and number so she could tell her other patients who were interested!
Since I can't get enough of Dr. Kolker and his amazing staff I have since gone back to the office on a monthly basis for facials, injectibles and laser hair removal. I leave Dr. Kolker feeling like a mini-celebrity from the glowing results of the visits. He is so gentle and patient, I actually look forward to my Botox and Restylane treatments. They are the best I have experienced in the city and I get asked all the time what I use on my skin to look so bright and youthful.
Even my son has seen "Dr. Adam" for minor scrapes & cuts. He now insists that Dr. Adam is HIS Doctor making him a true family favorite.
My "mommy makeover" was the one thing I did for "me" after having children and it's the greatest gift I gave myself.
Thank you to Dr. Kolker and his wonderful team. You have given me such confidence and true happiness with my body and appearance. It's a gift that I am grateful for every single day!

Dr. Kolker performed a Gynecomastia on me last year and I have to say that he made it his priority to make me feel welcome at his office and viewed the different options that were going to be performed during the Gynecomastia surgery. The results were fantastic!
I looked better then the extreme makeovers people see on reality TV shows. I would recommend Dr. Kolker to anyone who is serious about plastic surgery, whether it be something as simple as Botox, or as complicated facial reconstruction. His staff is just the same. They smiled at me every time I entered his office and helped me get my appointments and other arrangements without any hassle.
