Andrew Mark Klapper, M.D. - Outer Beauty

He carefully explained to me everything about the procedure. I asked his opinion on various procedures so I can freely choose what I needed. He was not pushy,nor did he insiston too expensive procedures. I will definitely go back and hire him again or recommend him to others.\r more

I once needed a facelift. I wasn't sure who I should get until someone recommended Dr. Andrew Klapper to me. I was apprehensive at first because of the reviews I read on yelp and other sites. I decided to trust my friend and contacted his office. Upon meeting him we we're able to discuss the surgery and he described in detail what he would do. He was very professional. I didn't regret going to him. He managed to explain everything clearly. After the surgery I felt good about myself. He did a great job with it. Afterwards he personally contact to inquire about my surgery. This is something doctors do not normally in my case and I was thankful for it. It showed that he cared about me. Sure it was expensive but I don't regret every single cent of it! more

You can't go wrong if you choose Dr. Klapper as your doctor. For one thing he's one of the best. Another is that he always shows that he cares for his patients. I can clearly remember when I went to 3 months ago for a minor surgery with face. I had an accident that caused my nose to be bent out of shape not to mention some scarring around my cheeks and ear. He operated on my face and now you can barely see any scars and my nose nose looks almost the same as it was before, even better! It's great to know that there can be some dependable doctors out there like Dr. Klapper. more

Dr. Klapper is excellent! I was referred to him through a friend who looks FANTASTIC. I wanted to know her secret. She was 100% right about going to see him. He is warm, caring, friendly and most importantly TALENTED! I left his office in NYC earlier today and could not be happier with the results of my laser treatment. I will return to him in the future for additional work! more

Over the last several months I had 4 injections for a more your youthful appearance. The office was clean and both receptions ladies were friendly and helpful. Dr. Klapper listened well and was excellent at setting my expectations as well as being both professional and efficient. As time progresses, I will definitely be returning for other procedures, etc. By the way, in response to the comment of 11/14/2011 by CrystalR569, I am not Dr. Klapper and no one requested that I write this review. more

Dr. Andrew Klapper is probably one of the best plastic surgeons there is. He doesn't just make you look beautiful, he makes you feel beautiful too!!! I had my breasts done by Dr. Klapper and the results were amazing!!! Now only have become bigger, they are also more firm and are in a great shape!!! He even gave me advice on how to make sure that they last long. He is turly a wonderful doctor!!! Worth every penny!!! more

Dr. Klapper helped me to achieve what I've always wanted. Get rid of the flab in my stomach and have flat stomach!!! I used to be very fat. I did a lot of dieting and exercise but the one thing that I couldn't seem to get rid of is my protruding belly. Thank to him and his excellent work I now have the the firm tummy I've been wanting for so long. I'll never regret the day I decided to consult him!!! more

I recently went to Dr. Klapper to get my nose done. The results were great!!! I used to have a huge beak of a nose. I inherited it from my father. It looks good on the male side of the family but of a woman? It just looks terrible. Dr. Klapper adjusted my nose and helped me greatly in improving my look and opinion of myself!!! I truly believe that if it were not for Dr. Klapper I never would have managed to regain my self-esteem. Thanks Dr. Klapper!!! more

Dr. Klapper? no.... more like ""Dr. Flapper"". I give him a ZERO! Doctors like him should not be allowed to practice ! How is he still in business? I am a 29 year old female, working in a medical field as a surgical physician assistant, came to see Dr.Klapper for a breast consultation. During my wait in the waiting area, a man approached me, and introduced himself as a doctor. He than sat down with a laptop and started to take down my basic info. I was surprised that a "" Doctor"" is doing the work of a receptionist. I then asked some questions. I asked what his role was here. He said "" I am Dr. Klappers right hand, i run the office , and i go into the operating room and help him with surgery. I then asked him what kind of a doctor he was and was shocked by the answer, "" a chiropractor"". I know dam well that a chiropractor has no business in the operating room and would legally not be allowed to assist a surgeon. That is just ridiculous!! A DC is not a medical doctor !!!! I was then called into a room. It was Dr. Klapper, the chiropractor male, and myself behind the closed door. I made a list of questions that i had for the doctor. Questions such as: Can i breast feed after? What are the complications? etc...He, however, answered every question with a question. He would not give me a straight answer. He then was trying to sell me on silicone when i clearly stated i wanted saline and was not concerned with that at the moment, i wanted to know what are some of the potential risks. I said to him what happens if my body rejects the implant? He responded: "" What if you get hit by a car tom morrow""?... I did not feel confident in him as a doctor. He did not have knowledge in what he was saying, and he has no interpersonal skills whatsoever. Horrible bedside manners. He was rude and defensive. He talked in circles. Very unprofessional. He then asked me to take off my clothes to show him my breasts. I told him i was not comfortable doing that, with 2 males in the room. He then got really angry , and told me he would not operate on me even if i agreed to it, told me to find another doctor, and rushed out of the room! I was shocked by his behavior. Coming home i reade other peoples reviews and how he messed up their bodies! Thank god i didn't go through with anything! Lesson learned to always read what other people have to say before choosing any doctor. more

I saw Dr.Klapper in his 5th Ave Office... I used to grow my hair long to cover my giant ears. When I was a kid I used to be teased that I was ""Dumbo"". I saw a few different plastic surgeons and each of them were very good. I just like Dr.Klapper the most. I like the before and after photos he showed me and that he could pin my ears back completely under local without me going to sleep. It was a breeze... we talked the whole operation - I told him all about my life and career and before I knew it we were done. Results are amazing! more

I had my facelift done by Dr.Klapper. You can't see my scars and it looks very natural. I was worried about looking like I would be walking out of a wind tunnel. Thankfully I found a surgeon that understood that the best plastic surgery leaves you looking natural more

I am in front of people all day long and with the age being unkind to my face - I started looking into things I could do before I needed to have a facelift. I don't have the money or the downtime for surgery. I had read about Sculptra on the internet and that it would restore my volume taking years off my face. What I liked about it was that it would last at least two years. But this scared me also. I wanted to make sure that if someone was putting a filler in my face that lasted that long it better be done by someone who does a whole lot of Sculptra. I did my research and it turns out that Dr.Klapper has given lectures on the ""Secrets of Sculpta"" and has a long list of happy satisfied Sculptra patients. His office even put me in touch with two patients to share their experience. Wow. I came in for a consult. We discussed my needs openly and honestly. I learned what I should expect and what was too much to ask for. My sculptra was placed in 3 sessions. Honestly I did not see much difference after the first session - but the doc warned me about that. After the second session people were starting to ask why I looked different and by the 3rd the cat was out of the bag and I was singing his praises to everyone. I highly recommend you go to Dr.Klapper for his expert ability to Facial Map you and properly place Sculpta. Thank you more

I am getting married in a few months and had gone to Dr. Klapper looking for a laser treatment for my skin. I was a little nervous at first, but Dr. K is amazing. First of all, I really appreciated that he was open and honest with me. He told me the reality of the procedures we discussed and not just what he thought I would want to hear. I also liked that he stayed in touch post treatment (I had the micropeel done) to make sure I was doing okay. My skin has never felt or looked this good and on top of it - I loved my doctor. Definitely worth going to see him! more

I went for a lip reduction and had a terrible experience. Bad bad work. Also very bad for fillers! PLEASE learn from my mistake and do not see him. Save your money, I am now unhappy and in debt bc of him. more

I had liposuction by Dr Klapper on my outer thighs 2 years ago. When i first went it, i was put off by his cocky demeanor, but i was hopeful that his cockiness equated to confidence in his ability. I was very wrong! He left 4 scars on of my outer thighs that are the size of cigarette burns. The scars on my right side are vertical whereas the scars on my left side are horizontal- after speaking with 3 other surgeons, my theory was confirmed that he had one of his assistants work on one side of me while he did the other- which is why the stitch work is inconsistent. Additionally, and the most prevalent reason i am writing to warn others, is that he did an uneven job and left a horrible crease in my right outer thigh- something that is clearly noticeable even through pants/leggings. I went back to him 6 months after the initial surgery to let him know how unhappy I was with the results, and he responded ""oh i guess we can schedule a 'touch up' procedure"", which costed me another $1250 (on top of the $4000 i paid the first time). HIs touch up was a very poor attempt, which he almost decided not to do the night before- as apparently the location he was working at had filed bankruptcy- something i only found out after the fact- he did the ""touch up"" at an alternate location, and made me promise not to contact the old office. He also had his assistant call me at 6pm the night before the surgery to let me know i need to bring my own compression garment... i ran around for 2 hours that evening looking for stores that sold them, and ended up having to shell out $150 for the thing! The touch up- didnt accomplish much- as i stated previously, its 2 years later and i still have 8 scars (4 per side) that look as though someone burned me with a cigarette, and such a severe crease in my right outer thigh that you can see it through pants. After the touch up i went in for a follow up- where i was only met with another assistant and when i told her how i was still unhappy- she told me i have to wait to see the full affects. Dr Klapper never returned a single phone call or letter after that . If you are considering getting work done, please be smarter then i was and dont go to Dr. Andrew Klapper... there are so many certified surgeons in Manhattan, do you research and get recommendations first!! more

Years later after he gave me a D cup when I asked for C cups from already B cups, I have sagging 40+ year old breasts that sweat constantly and are always in the way. Initially, the implants which were half under the muscle and half out could be felt by poking the lower half of my breasts. They poked back. Today with weight gain, you can't feel them. But, in the operating room, Dr. Klapper does what he wants, not what you want. Also, he lied straight through his teeth saying that it was o.k. to implant through the nipple knowing d*mn well that I wanted to breatfeed my child. He caused me undo hardship. I had untreat idiopathic hypersomnia, which meant I was half asleep when I saw him. He was able to figure out that I was an easy target and preyed on my weakness. \r His botox only lasted 3 weeks, before I was getting more.\r The department of health called me investigating him.\r You know he could have found lots of girls that would have wanted these stupid breasts for his showcase. I scratched out the line that says he can use my photos, but he put them on his website anyway. When I say this man lacks ethics, I mean it. I've met plenty a boob for doctors and never have I posted like this about another.\r I did not get a Computer Science degree from UC-Berkeley or study modern dance to be turned into a non-athletic person because of implants. You don't put D cups on an athletic person. Because, large breasts are not conducive to activities that you may normally already enjoy. I was already holding the b cup down with a sports bra. Sorry, to those you have natural endowment, but I feel like a pair of walking breasts. I close my coat when I run for the bus, cause these d*mn things are all over the place. I can't jump up and down with my toddler, becuase these things are all over the place. I'm not happy. And, Klapper did this to me. I would have never chosen what are now DD-cups.\r Everytime these cumbersome, large, unwanted implants get in the way I get mad at what Klapper did to me. And, that is many times a day. It doesn't help that my nipples are now the size of grapefruit and even a bump for my child is uncomfortable. If I had been born with breasts this large, I would have been paying Klapper for a reduction. It is unconscionable that he would do this to another human being just to have example photographs of breast implants this size. You know if this is what I wanted then they would have been fine. But, I didn't studder when I said ""C cup"". And, I didn't mean large c-cup. My b cups were starting to sag a little. I thought implants would pick them up a little bit and defy gravity. But, what I got sags just like the real thing. And, that's not pretty to 40+.\r Anyone thinking about implants needs to get in writing exactly what the doctor is going to do. Cause they can just write abitrary notes at the top of a page and say each appointment the patient agreed to a larger size. Not only that, if you actually think that you want large breasts, know that they sag as you age. And, unless, you are like a AAA-cup or AA-cup, it's not worth it. The only people that really should get implants in this author's opinion are people that don't already have them. If they are sagging, after child-bearing years, get a mastopexy, if you really are bothered by the sag.\r But, do you think Klapper would have really bothered to find out what I wanted? H*ll no. He saw me as a ginney pig. \r \r See my yahoo review for the conclusion. more

I had my breast done and it is simply amazing. I barely have any scars at all, and the most I was worried about that it would look fake. Well my worries are over it looks absolutely fantastic, it is absolutely perfect, there is no way anyone can tell this is an implant. I would recommend him to anyone. Thank you, DR. Klapper Pros: Exceptionally talented plastic surgeon more

Is it possible that Dr. Andrew Klapper is relocating to Florida? (He now has a Florida medical license in Florida, License #ME104175). \r \r I wonder WHYy he would leave his ""5th Ave practice"". Does anyone know what prompted this unexpected move? Cons: It'll be harder to track him down. more

I had a mastectomy in April 05 and reconstruction performed by Dr. Klapper. He did a tummy tuck and used my own tissue to form the new breast. I finished my cancer treatments in Dec. 06 and elected to have the nipple reconstruction done. I had no idea how much this would mean to me. I look like who I use to be and do not feel defined by my breast cancer anymore. Dr. Klapper did an amazing job. It has been such a gift to me. Throughout my ordeal he has shown me so much kindness. Words can not say how grateful I am to him.\r Dr. Klapper is a rare find. more

When you meet Dr. Klapper expect a down -to -earth, funny and honest man with great pair of hands that can perform great procedures and make you look and feel fantastic!\r He talks in plain language that you'd understand, has a great sense of humor, and yes, it is possible that he may talk you out of doing a procedure if he believes you don't need it. He has done that to me a few times! He helps you see yourself more objectively. \r \r Then, once you both agreed on a procedure, he works very hard to prepare you for it, put you at ease and make you feel comfortable. And the results are always the same as he explained they would be or better. In my case, he has performed far better results than he had promised.\r \r His staff is also very friendly and caring that makes ""going to see a Doctor"" a very pleasant experience. more
