I was referred here as I had some basal skin cancer that needed to be removed near my hairline. Since it involved my face, my dermatologist referred me to Dr. Sandeen out of caution. I had a consultation, the removal, and a post-removal follow up. Everything healed great! I was pregnant at the time and they made sure to use a safe numbing solution. I am 10-months post-removal and you can't tell where I had the skin cancer removed. My uncle had skin cancer removed from the base of his ear and you can't tell either. The scar is so small. The doctors here know what they are doing and are well-trained. Thank you again! read more

Sandeen and Lee Plastic Surgery - Cosmetic Surgeons Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

I had my abdominalplasty 6 weeks ago on August 2nd. Dr Hess did an amazing job! I'm very active, I workout 5 days a week but I could never get rid of my midsection and I was getting frustrated with how my clothes fit and how I looked despite my efforts. Finally I decided to look into elective surgery for it. Dr Hess educated me on exactly what the surgery entails and the expected results. I can say the results are night and day, absolutely amazing! I'm 44 years old and I am so excited that I get to enjoy my results for a long time! No amount of ab workouts would have gotten these results! Dr Hess is such a nice man as well as Dr Sandeen who did one of my follow ups. I highly recommend this practice if you are considering this life altering surgery. read more

I underwent a breast reduction procedure with Dr. Hess in June of 2021 and it was undoubtedly one of the best decisions I've ever made. As it was my first ever surgery, the process was very intimidating, but Dr. Hess and the entirety of his office staff were supportive, helpful, and genuinely cared about me getting insurance approval. Yezzenia, the office's patient coordinator, was SO awesome - she is both very knowledgeable and genuine, and not to mention an expert at acquiring insurance approval. As for the actual surgery, it was quite literally painless and my recovery was flawless, which I contribute to Dr. Hess's remarkable skill and his post-op techniques. My scars are minimal, the size is absolutely perfect, and the areolas are evenly-sized and symmetrical. He and his staff always took the time to answer all the questions I had, and even got me in immediately to see Dr. Hess when I had a concern. I was actually sad when I had my last post-op appointment because every appointment I had throughout the process was such a pleasure. Dr. Hess and his staff (especially Yezzenia!) absolutely changed my life and I would recommend them to anyone looking into plastic surgeries. read more

I initially went to Dr. Hess after a referral from my primary care. After losing a very significant amount of weight I needed a number of procedures. I had consultations with numerous surgeons and finally settled on Dr. Hess because he took the time to answer all my questions, treated me like a peer and because unlike the other surgeons he did not try to up sell me into additional procedures I wasn't ready to discuss. After my first surgery I was in total amazement. He gave me a body I had never had in my entire life. I underwent my second surgery 6 months after the first and again was blown away with the results. I am currently scheduled for my third and final surgery and I am 100% confident the results will be as life changing as the first two. Dr. Hess helped to give me my life back and I can't recommend him highly enough. read more

I was very reticent to have abdominoplasty at 63 years old, but my quality of life was being impacted. It took a year from my initial appointment to decide to go ahead with the surgery, and over two months later I am absolutely thrilled with my decision. The recovery from this surgery is not easy, but I have had great support from Dr. Hess and his office staff. They have answered questions, provided information and have been very responsive, friendly and polite in person and over the phone. I cannot believe the difference in my body!! All I can say is that Dr. Hess is a true artist and a very skilled surgeon. I have had absolutely no complications after this pretty major surgery, and my scars are healing beautifully. Thank you to Dr. Hess for your humor, making me feel comfortable with this decision, for not pushing me, for your kindness and patience. Thank you to the office staff/surgery staff for helping this surgery be a positive experience. Recommend w/no reservations! read more

Very unsatisfied with my breast lift and augmentation. My breast shape is pretty much the same as before just a little higher and now smaller. I asked for fuller and bigger. They are neither and now I have scarring and no feeling in my breasts. I'm very embarrassed by the look of my breast. Every time I asked about the size Dr Hess seemed to get offended and made me feel uncomfortable for even asking. read more

Dr. Lee performed reconstructive surgery on me almost six weeks ago. From the moment surgery was over there has never been any pain. The incision site has healed beautifully. She is highly professional, easily approachable, never in a rush, and addresses any and all of your concerns. A wonderful surgeon and a wonderful person. read more

Dr. Hess was the 3rd Doctor I interviewed before deciding on who to select. The other 2 had excellent recommendations, but they didn't want to do what I was asking for. They said I wouldn't be happy unless I went with their suggestions. Dr. Hess knew exactly what I was looking for and agreed with me. The end results were even better than I hoped for. The entire staff was awesome before, during and after the procedure. I would definitely recommend Dr. Hess. read more

I have been waiting years to have a reduction.  Dr Hess did an amazing job.  He has great bedside manner and is a great surgeon.  His office staff is friendly and great to work with.  So glad I chose him as my surgeon. read more

I'd like to recommend Dr. Richard Hess, an incredible plastic surgeon who operated on my hands three times over the last eight years in Tucson. I was referred to him by a friend whose wife had suffered breast cancer. I was surprised that a plastic surgeon did hand surgery, but I learned that this was common. His operations on me were all very successful. I didn't know how good a doctor he was until I went to the recommended physical therapy after my surgeries. One therapist that I worked with said, "You are very lucky. He's the best hand surgeon in Tucson." The other agreed and added, "Yeah, he ends up fixing lots of other doctors' surgeries. Many times patients have to re-do this (surgery), and are so glad they got him." One of the surgeries on my thumb was pretty complex. He modestly told me that he worked with the innovator of this procedure, and that it more successful than other methods. Dr. Hess' personality (and his staff's) is very friendly and kind, putting people at ease. read more

Dr. Sandeen changed my life. I had large breasts since I was 13 years old and we all know what time and gravity does over time. Let's just say I finally got around to a breast lift in my late 40s and couldn't be happier. My breasts look 25 again! The surgery was easy, the recovery even easier, and the price was very reasonable. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Sandeen, his staff, and the nursing staff at the hospital. It was a great experience and something that has had such a positive impact on my life. read more

Dr. Hess agreed at the last minute to do my breast reconstruction immediately following my mastectomy, as the initial plastic surgeon was not approved by my insurance. He was extremely professional but also kind and considerate - especially considering the circumstances. I am currently 6 weeks post-surgery and doing very well. Am considering returning to him in a couple of months for a lift in the opposing breast and trust that he would do an excellent job at that as well. I could not be more satisfied. His staff is also very professional and gracious. read more

Dr Sandeen did my breast augmentation in early June. He has been nothing but amazing along with his staff!

My husband and I have used the services of Dr. Sven Sandeen on several cosmetic procedures. My husband was diagnosed with melanoma on his face and our skin doctor made the referral to Sandeen for removal of the skin near the site. Dr. Sandeen was able to make a long curved incision on my husband's face magically disappear into a crease. I also ended up having skin cancer removed by Dr. Sandeen from my shin. Since high school, I have secretly wanted larger breasts. Even with a padded push-up bra, I barely had anything to show. At the age of 56, my husband gave me the gift of breast augmentation and lift. At first, I felt self conscious over all the choices a woman has in that procedure but Dr. Sandeen and his wonderful staff helped me find the size and style to best fit my figure. It has been 3 months since the surgery and I have to say I am still smiling when I see myself in the mirror. I love the way they look, make me feel and how sexy I look in my clothes. I no longer feel intimidated when a Victoria Secret commercial comes on tv. My husband usually responds with "Your's are better than her's"! At 56 years year old, his comment makes an old woman feel pretty good. Prior to the surgery, I was not aware of all the choices available with implants. I would strongly recommend Dr. Sandeen to help you make those critical choices. They will be staring you in the face for many years to come so you want to make sure you choose the right size and style, have a skilled surgeon to place them correctly to look natural and a staff who is always friendly and professional. read more

Dr. Hess is the best!!! I would highly recommend him! I had surgery in September and back to myself (but less) by October. Never doubt this professional! read more

Dr. Sandeen is amazing. He put a skin graft on my foot and it was perfect. Other doctors said they would be bragging if they did that graft because it is perfect. His office is nice and his staff is professional. His staff is above the highest standard. Dr. Sandeen is so talented and everyone I know In Tucson knows of him because he is the best. I was referred to him by a top notch wound care specialist. I'm so happy I went because he can work miracles. read more
