At one point in time, Dr. Ellenbogen was indeed a sound surgeon. I've heard many stories about how he USED TO BE.\r
\r
However, as he has aged, so have his skills. He used to perform revision surgery on patients that other plastic surgeons had worked on. Now most of the revisions he does are on his own patients - patient that HE did the original surgery on. This should not be happening.\r
\r
For any future patients, you have been warned. I would NOT recommend Dr. Ellenbogen as a surgeon in any capacity, especially not for any procedures on the body, such as breast augmentation, tummy tucks. He used to be excellent at facelifts and necklifts, but now even those are turning out poorly.\r
\r
If you want to be guaranteed a revision surgery, then go ahead and go to Dr. Ellenbogen.\r
\r
However, if you have worked too hard for your money and want the best, do NOT go to this man. He is a hack.\r
\r
I learned the hard way.
Cons: Performs too many revisions of his own procedures
