I went for a free consultation about two years ago. The staff was friendly, and of course, "beautiful." My first thought was...yes, I want to look like her! Ok, be realistic lol
My experience, once in the exam room, felt rushed as if I was taking up his time. The doctor didn't even examine my face up close, but rather talked very briefly the procedure from across the room. This took about 10 minutes. I was handed the cost sheet & it was over.
The idea of having such a serious procedure(s) to my face was quite serious for me. I guess I expected a closeup view by the doctor?
I'd attempted to have laser throughout my life, but had fears of scaring more from the Laser. Suffering from acne since 12, then scaring, I was teased/bullied; called, pizza face or crater face by schoolmates.
Then being 56-57, my face felt as though it was melting...now time for a facelift as well in addition to, Fraxel Resurfacing.
The cost was extremely higher than imagined.
I hope those who had positive results are happy.

I have been a patient for many years, and trust the staff at the Laser Center with my care. More recently, and after many years of repetitive occupational stress, I found that I had reached a plateau in my physical conditioning, was generally tired, and had reduced levels of energy.
After careful consultation with me and in review of my lab work, Dr. VanAntwerp started me on a course of testosterone treatment. I have found that I wear my belt on the 4th hole, instead of the first; I have lost fifteen pounds, and have leaned up greatly; and that my energy levels are on the rise again. In addition to the physical benefits described, I have found my mood to be more positive, and have seen phenomenal changes in my blood work - my lipid numbers are significantly better, there has been no change in my PSA score, and overall my blood chemistry is much closer to normal than it has been in a long time.
The staff is great, I trust their medical advice and care, and they treat me like family. It is well worth looking in to this course of treatment if you are in a rut, work in a stressful occupation, or find yourself a half-step behind how you used to be.

Reading the review and so many people said good things about this place. I recently went and had a appointment and it really upset me how everyone who works there treated my family so bad. These people are racist and never have I experienced such a thing m. I will never go back to this place. Worst staff ever!

While I did have a pleasant experience during my consultation and procedure with Dr. Mallalieu, I don't believe the results from my gynecomastia surgery are entirely satisfactory. Several months after my treatment and allowing my chest to fully heal, the problem has been reduced, but still remains.
Unfortunately, excision of breast tissue is not performed alongside the laser liposuction treatment at the Laser Center. This only treats pseudo-gynecomastia which is caused by fat alone, and does not resolve cases of true gynecomastia which involves enlarged breast tissue in men, along with the fat tissue. Because of this, I have had to consult several other plastic surgeons for a second surgery, and to properly rid myself of gynecomastia.
I have nothing against the Laser Center of MD or their great staff, hence the three stars. All the people involved in the procedure were kind, friendly, and professional. However, I feel people seeking treatment for gynecomastia be aware of this, and keep this in mind when looking for a doctor for treatment.

Professional staff... Attentive, flexible scheduling, offer financing...staff will go over everything in detail. They offer no promises but tell you what you can expect and deliver. Ask for Mercy!! She is the best... And the Doctors .... The older Dr. talked with me for over an hour about different things not even related to the services. They care about the person and not just the money... Would highly recommend them for anyone looking into their services.
