I had a neck lift by Dr. Jeff Kesler nearly 1 1/2 years ago. I was unsatisfied with the development of what is called "turkey neck." He seemed very qualified according to my research. I was troubled by his air of being in a hurry and talking over me, but thought that should not reflect on his skill as a surgeon. His answers to my questions were clipped and somewhat evasive. For instance, he would not give me a direct answer when I asked how many neck and facelifts he did a year, just that he did "more than the other doctors" at Arrowhead. I have no complaints about the staff, who were very cordial and friendly, as was Dr. Kesler. I finally had the neck lift and it was about as uncomfortable recovering as I expected, although not overly painful. Dr. Kesler gave me antibiotics and steroids for a possible allergic reaction to the compression bandage, and also adequate prescription pain meds. I believe my recovery was average, and I was able to go back to socializing a month later. It was obvious, however, that I did not get an optimal result from the procedure. As the swelling went down over the months, loose skin remained on each side of my neck. Also, the incision under the chin is still bumpy after nearly a year and a half, and you can see the stitch marks of the sutures, which were very obvious directly after surgery. I expected better from a skilled surgeon. The central area of my neck is much better, the "turkey wattle" is gone, and my jawline appears smoother. but I did not get the result I expected, and am disappointed after paying thousands of dollars. Also, there is a crease in my earlobe where the tissue was stitched in an overlap, and that ear is now lower than the other. Dr. Kesler said the massaging they instruct you to do every day for several months would get rid of the crease, but it hasn't. He said if it didn't resolve with massage he could take care of it in the office, but on my final postoperative visit he brushed off my concerns and said "keep massaging." When I voiced my concerns about the loose skin on either side of my neck, he said "that's just skin," which I took to mean it was the nature of skin to do that and I couldn't expect a better result. He then took a photo of my profile for his files, instructing me to lift my chin, which made the neck appear tighter than it was. He seemed in a great hurry even though the waiting room was nearly empty. On my way out, he handed me a photo of what I looked like before the surgery and said I looked much better than before, as if to chide me for questioning the results. I felt rushed and my concerns dismissed. I know that a perfect result from cosmetic surgery is not a given, but I am left wondering if Dr. Kesler is skilled enough at facelifts to call himself an expert, which he is listed as in his profile. I do look firmer than before the surgery, but feel that it could have been better for $18,000. I would advise that if you have enough money, go to a plastic surgeon who deals exclusively with facelifts, instead of one who dabbles in several different cosmetic procedures. read more

If you want to go to Arrowhead, this is what you'll look like post tummy tuck. Before size 10 and after size 10. Dr. Kesler almost killed me. Ended up in ICU and 12 blood transfusions. This is what I look like after spending $16,000 plus thousands in medical bills. If this man had a heart at all, he would have at LEAST offered me my money back after all he put me through. read more

Very nice experience, with cordial receptionist, nurses, and Dr. Kesler. It was a great visit from beginning to end. It even had a happy outcome, which was a surprise to me. I usually have no luck, but my injury required no further treatment. I did have to have stitches removed from a sensitive lip and the nurse was very kind through the entire process. Thanks everyone for making me feel important. read more

STAY AWAY FROM ARROWHEAD PLASTIC SURGEONS!!! Before I made my consultation appointment, I asked the receptionist if they accepted my insurance. She said that they did but would let me know if they did not -- BEFORE my consultation. She told me that the doctor who would perform my surgery requested that I see his assistant for my consultation, instead of him. I said that it was alright with me, as long as the assistant also accepted my insurance. She told me that everything would be covered. I was surprised when I later received a bill from my insurance company, in addition to my office visit co-pay that I already paid. My insurance company told me that the consultation should be covered and told me how Arrowhead needed to rebill it. I relayed this information to the Billing Specialist at Arrowhead and was firmly told that she would not rebill the claim. So I ended up getting stuck with the full charge of the office visit. And in addition, I was also informed by Arrowhead that the doctor that I was supposed to have my surgery with wanted to see me for ANOTHER consultation; this time with him. So...I had a consultation that was a complete waste of time AND not covered by my insurance. Needless to say, I found another local plastic surgeon and will never go back to Arrowhead again. I recommend you do the same! read more
