I had a TT, MR and lipo of flanks with Dr. Larsen at Buckhead Plastic Surgery in January 2022. I can say it was the best decision I have ever made. Dr. Larsen and his staff are phenomenal. Simply the best. Dr. Larsen is very personable and professional. He cares for his patient's total health, not just the aesthetics of the outcome after surgery. He is very informative and explains everything in layman's terms.
His front office staff are the best and so polite. I especially appreciate all of his NP's. They are definitely an extension of Dr. Larsen with their professionalism and caring nature. Dr. Larsen is a great plastic surgeon. You will not be disappointed if you choose him. I know I am very happy with my results so far.

I had a Mommy makeover in Dec '20. Best decision I've made was going with Dr. Larsen as my surgeon. His techniques are what made the difference. He uses a chair position at some point and I have a surfboard flat stomach for the first time in my life. My breasts are great too. My case was difficult due to a previous chest surgery(medical not plastic) and I truly believe no one could have repaired them better.
I let him decide the size and he used two different sized implants so now I have even breasts. I'm not married and no plans to be. I did this for myself and I'm very happy with the results. The staff at BPS are great as well. The overnight stay post op made me feel very cared for and prepared to go home. A week or two later I had a small infection in one of my sutures which is no big deal.
I was responded to immediately and given oral and topical antibiotics. The infection cleared up within 36 hours. I really feel like the recovery went exceptional. Minimal pain as long as you follow instructions. Every concern or question I had was met with respect and compassion. No one made me feel annoying. Oh and I fainted in the office a couple times post op because my blood sugar likes to be dramatic. Dr. Larsen and Trudy literally caught me and cared for me until I could walk safely.
They're really great! My advice is save up and only see a quality surgeon like Dr. Larsen! Update 1/12/22 - just had a follow up appt after 30 lbs weight loss post mommy makeover. Going to have my backside repaired next. Lipo and remove the excess skin. Excited to be continuing my body makeover with Dr. Larsen. No one will make you feel more welcome than Trudy. She is just fantastic. I took her advise one year ago and kept a lifting bra on 90% of the time and my breasts are perky as can be.

Seriously can't say enough good things about Dr. Larsen and his staff. Mary Alice, his nurse is absolutely incredible and helped me so much before and after! He is definitely the best boob dr I know! I don't even live in Atlanta or Georgia and made the drive to see him. I'm extremely happy with my results and I recommend everyone to his office!

I am so pleased with my results from my breast augmentation. From Ms. Denise to the entire staff, everyone was so warm and welcoming. Dr Larsen was such a pleasure to work with and stayed cracking jokes , he did an amazing job. Even If it takes 2 and 1/2 hours drive, I will never go anywhere else if I ever want anything else done.

I went in for a mommy makeover 7/29/21 im not that far out but my results are amazing already! Dr Larson is truly an artist, His staff are amazing as well. I had 3 other consultations lined up and they were the first and I immediately knew! He has the best abdominoplasty technique and he is 100% honest when it comes down to what to expect with results.
I would definitely recommend him for any procedure (definitely the breast augmentation).also kristy that does the lymphatic message in the med spa is the best! The nurses there are complete gems every call or text I made I always got a response! Thank you guys for giving me my confidence back.

Dr. Larsen and then entire staff at Buckhead Plastic Surgery were absolutely amazing! I cannot possibly give enough positive feedback here. As a Registered Nurse myself, I was very nervous to have a surgical procedure and finding a reputable and professional surgeon was of the utmost importance to me. Dr Larsen was extremely knowledgeable and professional and made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire process, from the consultation to the post surgical appointments.
The CRNA called me prior to my surgery and went over all of my questions, including medications that would be used, which was above and beyond in my opinion. Everyone in the office and everyone in the surgical suite was so kind and accommodating, so professional and knowledgeable, they all put me completely at ease and made me feel so comfortable.
I absolutely love my results and could not be happier! I tell all my friends and family to go to Dr. Larsen! If you're on the fence I would highly, highly recommend this office and Dr. Larsen! I don't have a single regret!

I do not recommend this doctor. From the moment he took the wraps off I was upset & knew that the surgery went wrong. I have 2 ligaments (1 on the inside of right breast & 1 under my armpit) that stick out and used to ache but now are painful. The implant is under these ligaments & is super noticeable. On top of being painful, it shows through my clothing, looks terrible in a bathing suit, again is painful, it also makes my right breast about 3" higher than the left one.
He said, & I quote, "it was the best he could do"! He told me to rub out the ligament as post op advice & wear a tight sports bra even to bed. I feel this may have made it worse, even with massaging to prevent capsular constricture (scar tissue around the implant). I have read at least 4 other reviews from the last few yrs that have the same complaint.
They all are offered no redo or compromise (the same happened to me). I just want the implants out not even trying to get him to do extra anything. My quote to do so was $9,353 & $4515.what? This is how you correct your mistake? This is not a fix or compromise. I went by 2 recommendations & have been disappointed, uncomfortable and now in pain ever since he did my surgery. Do your research.

My wife means literally everything to me. The fact that she was so taken care of by the staff of Buckhead Plastic Surgery means the world to me. From start to finish the whole process was as smooth as silk and I couldn't have been happier with the results. I highly recommend this group of talented and professional people to anyone who desires to have work done.

Whole experience 10/10. Denise helped so much through the whole process, answered all my questions and made everything so simple. Dr Larsen was extremely professional and made me feel comfortable. All of the staff was so nice and my surgery was a breeze. Everyone including myself is so impressed with my results, how quickly I healed and how faint my incisions are.

I had a breast augmentation and lift, tummy tuck, and flank lipo with Dr. Larsen in March 2021. It has been almost six months out and I can happily say that the results are phenomenal! He and his team did an excellent job before, during, and after the surgery. They were always available for my questions and concerns. And I have never loved my body as much as I do now! I would highly recommend his services as a surgeon. Yes, you may have to wait sometimes but I expect to wait for a reputable doctor. Thank you, Buckhead Plastic Surgery!

The personal relationships that are developed between Dr. Larsen, staff, and patients is amazing and almost unheard of today. Dr. Larsen finished a procedure on my wife at Chastain and walked across the street in the rain to review its successes and follow-ups with me in the parking lot where I waited. Hurrah!

When you meet Dr. Larson he is very personable and knowledgeable. Taylor and Denise are also amazing; very high energy and sweet individuals. - I give it 3 stars because it is nearly impossible to schedule an appointment and not have to wait 1.5-2hours just to be seen for an appointment that only last 10-20min. Even after you wait the initial 1.5-2hours you are often times placed in the patient room for another 20-30minutes - Great Doctor, beautiful place, but the extended wait times take away from the overall experience.

I can't say enough good things about Dr Larsen and his awesome staff. When my husband and I met Dr Larsen, we both knew we found my doctor! After having breast cancer and completing my treatments Dr Larsen put in my expanders and then implants. Any times we had questions they were always answered and we were always treated wonderfully. My implants. are natural and amazing!
I've gotten so many compliments. The staff made a very scary situation seem like a breeze. I can't say enough good things about them. Call them today and you will be so glad you did! Thank you Dr Larsen and staff for everything!

There's so many positive things to be said about Dr. Larsen, his staff, and the overall experience. Dr. Larsen was very straight forward and answered all of my questions during my consultation, and I am more than pleased with the results of my augmentation! Plus, the Med Spa upstairs offers an array of services that will make your skin look amazing! The best in Atlanta!
