From the reviews
I would highly recommend Dr. Carlisle, Brooke and his team. I did quite a bit of searching and even paid a deposit with another surgeon but after meeting Dr.Carlisle and Brooke, I knew that’s who I needed to perform my surgery! His skill, bedside manner and demeanor is phenomenal.
Dr. Carlisle is the real deal. I had a cosmetic nose job/rhinoplasty and I am like a new person. I know and saw other plastic surgeons, but I chose him. He may look young, but completely amazing, knowledgeable, skilled, and knows modern plastic surgery. I think the old has gone and the new has come to Des Moines.
Dr. Carlisle and his staff are wonderful! He preformed an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) on me in February of 2017. The surgery went great with no complications or issues. Dr. Carlisle and staff did a wonderful job explaining just what I should expect, the good and bad.
After a significant weight loss and a less than satisfactory experience with another surgeon, I felt more uncomfortable in my skin than ever before. After reviewing my case and medical history, Dr. Carlisle tirelessly advocated for a corrective procedure for me with my insurance company. I not only chose Dr.
Researching a tummy tuck?
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is major surgery with real risks and a recovery that usually runs several weeks — this page is a starting point for finding a surgeon, not medical advice. The most useful next step is a consultation, where a surgeon reviews your health history, examines you, talks through your options, and gives a personal quote. Bring questions and don't rush the decision.
Questions worth asking: Are you board-certified in plastic surgery (and can I verify it)? Where would you operate, and is the facility accredited? Can I see before-and-after photos of your own patients? What are the risks and the realistic recovery timeline for me? What's your revision policy if something needs adjusting? Whatever a listing says, always verify certification directly with the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) at abplasticsurgery.org, and discuss your candidacy, risks, and recovery with the surgeon.
