"Dr. Petroff is meticulous! - Four months ago Dr. Petroff performed my lower facelift and chin implant surgery and in my opinion the experience and results are the finest possible.I’ve had 3 prior plastic surgeries mostly on a congenital body issue. Two of the surgeries successful, and one, a very bad experience. I’m knowledgeable of what can go right, or wrong, with a surgeon. I spent two years researching physicians to perform my facial surgery, consulting with four. I was scared because of my prior bad experience and this surgery was on my face. All the quotes varied only by a few hundred bucks. Why am I so impressed with Dr. Petroff?1) He’s only performs surgery from the neck up. Why would one trust their face to someone who ‘specializes’ in the whole body? How can you ‘specialize’ in everything?2) Dr. Petroff is a serious guy. He isn’t the cheer leader type that’s going to convince you that surgery will change your life. He’s re-assuring about what can be done, but he is not going to convince you to do it. He’s patient, kind, quiet and gentle. I think he prefers to under promise and over deliver. 3) His approach to anesthesia. This is at the top of my list. Do not be afraid of the twilight anesthesia. When he says “at times you’ll be awake but you won’t care”, he means it. It was so much easier to get out of my system. I felt great after. Not one unpleasant painful moment during the whole thing. I loved Jeannie his anesthesiologist and wished I could take her home.4) He consulted with me twice. No Problem. It’s a good thing too, because we decided to change the chin implant type. A decision I absolutely love. Don’t be afraid to talk to him. You must communicate what you are thinking.5) Dr. Petroff is meticulous in every way.His sutures: Tiny, meticulous and invisible in a month.His staff: You find a team of beautiful, kind gals who operate that office and operating room like a fine tuned Swiss watch. It was quickly notable how Dr. Petroff and this staff had thought of absolutely everything. The experience was so meticulous I actually mentioned it. They were appreciative that I noticed and confirmed, it is in fact, intentional. I loved them all and actually miss them now that it’s over. His office building: It beautiful! The furnishings are stunning! He has a separate waiting room for surgery patients and their family. It really puts you at ease. It’s clear that Dr. Petroff is a successful surgeon and I love that he chooses to reinvest back into his practice and appreciates beautiful surroundings. It tells me, beauty, is a high priority for him.6) Dr. Petroff sends you home with roses. Who does that? Not one surgeon ever before. A detail and cost not required, but chooses to do it anyway. I can’t say enough about Dr. Petroff and his staff. They do not disappoint! The results are so good!"

"Long-lasting Resultswere Better Than I Could Have Imagined - Portland, OR - I had always hated my nose and my profile. When talking to someone in a car, I'd angle my body so that I was facing them so they couldn't see my profile. When in bed with a boyfriend, I'd always sleep facing away, so he couldn't see my profile. I avoided having my picture taken, and when I couldn't, I'd make goofy faces. The real turning point came when I was at a wedding with an (ex) boyfriend, and thought, "When I get married, how am I going to say my vows without people seeing my profile?" Three months later, I scheduled my rhinoplasty and chin implant. I had it done in Feb 2010. I was so excited that I didn't allow myself to be nervous. In fact, the first thing I said when I woke up after my surgery was, "That felt just like a spa day!" For a month before/after my surgery, I: took special surgery vitamins, extra vitamin C, cut out all blood thinning foods, most salt, and loaded up on protein shakes so my body could re build. I took a full two weeks off work. It has been two years since my surgery, and these have been the best two years of my life. My nose isn't perfect - there's a tiny bump on it still and it's not perfectly symmetrical, but I love it. People say you can't expect that plastic surgery will give you self esteem or confidence or dramatically change your life, but it did all of those for me. In the past two years, I've dated the most beautiful men, have had random people come up and tell me how pretty I am, and have had pictures taken of me from every angle, and guess what? They all look great! There is such a notable difference, but you know how many people from my "past" even noticed that I had some "work done"? One. That's it! Lots of people from high school who haven't seen me in years (and guys who never ever spoke to me before) have told me how beautiful I've become, but not even my close girl friends have guessed I've had surgery. I paid $10K for my nose job and chin implant, but you know what? If I had to do it all over again I'd happily pay twice that. If you're considering getting rhinoplasty, DO IT. I only had consultations with two doctors, and feel lucky that the surgery turned out so well. I'd recommend consulting with many doctors; look at all their before/after pictures; and don't be in a hurry. I think it took a good year + for all the swelling to go down. My nose now looks vastly different than the nose I saw when my cast was first removed - it looks better. If you're hesitating, don't. Just make sure that you pick a good doctor, and don't let the cost be a factor."
"I went to Dr. Petroff about a year ago for a nose job and chin implant - the cost was reasonable, but I'd gladly pay twice that. I'm so happy with it. Dr. Petroff is confident, straightforward, and incredible at what he does. I recently went back for filler. He's a plastic surgeon but still charges less than the cheapy med-spa I'd been going to. He's a perfectionist, and it shows."
