Testimonials

A septoplasty (repair of my nose) was my first surgery as an older adult. I have nothing but good things to say about my experience. Dr. Lin is very skilled, and a good listener and communicator. My concerns and questions were all addressed, patiently, and I felt reassured. On the day of surgery, all of the medical staff were wonderful -- polite, patient, responsive, and very nice. (One of the nurses told me that Dr. Lin is the best, and if she was going to have surgery, he would be the surgeon she would choose.) At this point, I would certainly agree. My healing and recovery went as expected, I was able to be well prepared with what I would need to make myself comfortable. My breathing is now much better, and all of the swelling is gone, so I can return to all of my usual activities at six weeks. I have to say that I was not happy about the prospect of surgery but now that it's over, I had nothing to be concerned about. I highly recommend Dr. Lin.

I choose to have a Bilateral Mastectomy with Diep Flap due to a genetic mutation with Dr Lin at Beth Israel. From the first time I met Dr Lin, I was greatly put at ease. He is very attentive and caring. I also cannot not speak highly enough about his nursing staff, they truly go above and beyond for their patients! I am very happy with my results!

I came into the office looking for a new sense of confidence with the appearance of my nose and for the function of my nose to improve (after breaking my nose multiple times during college sports). I was greeted with a very pleasant and thorough staff that ensured my concerns were addressed and understood adequately. Dr. Lin was especially attentive, and called to double check we were both on the same page before my surgery. I could not be happier with my results and it has only been 6 months. Thank you to everyone at Boston cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery out of Beth Israel Deaconess! 1 year update and am still pleased with my results from my septo-rhinoplasty. My breathing is restored and has made physical activities and sleeping greatly improved. I will be coming back for future reconstructive surgeries if need be. Thank you Dr. Linn and staff!

I had a rhinoplasty at the young age of 18 and lived with the regret for 20 years. This surgery caused my nose to be severely uneven as well as a collapsed on one side . Over time this cause breathing issues, mostly while sleeping and working out as well as emotional distress due to embarrassment over how my nose looked. After marriage and kids I decided to turn my attention to myself and start seeking out revision doctors. I found Dr. Lin online on a list of top us doctors and he was located in Boston which was a real bonus since I'm from New England. My result exceeded my expectations. I never thought my nose could look normal again considering how uneven it was. I am so excited to WANT to have my picture taken with my kids, in the past this has been a real struggle.

Thank you Dr. Lin! Just had my 6 month check up and everything is going great with my healing and breathing. I've started running again since I can breath and I don't shy away from photos anymore!

I was referred to Dr. Lin's office for my DIEP Reconstruction Procedure and It was better than I could have imagined. I feel so blessed to have been able to use my own body tissue and skin to create my right breast and nipple. The nursing unit and all of the staff were wonderful and I felt like I was doing better than expected. In my follow up appointments in the office all of the staff from the receptionist and including Drl Lin have been wonderful. They make you feel like you are visiting friends and not going to see the plastic surgeon. I had my procedure September 11, 2023 the second April 11, 2024 and I will be having tattoo's on my right nipple and areola. I am super excited, wonderfully blessed and have referred friends to his office. I have called when I have had questions, and or sent messages through the portal and have always had great returned calls and messages. It has truly been a pleasure being a patient in this office! God has made my path and I am just walking in it the best way that I can and with Him all things are possible. Thank you Dr. Lin and your staff for the wonderful care and treatment that you provide to your patients and may God continue to bless you all. Amanda Cook

I'm 9 month post surgery feeling better than ever! Scars have healed well, golf swing is so much better, posture has improved greatly. I'm not longer sore and fatigued in the evening. My shoulders look better I may even try a strapless dress!! So pleased with my new look and improved posture, well worth the surgery and post op. Dr Lin did an amazing job and staff is supportive.

Dr. Lin recently repaired my collapsed nasal valve and I am extremely happy with the result cosmetically and functionally! Him and his team were amazing and made the entire process great. The nurses were so kind and helpful before and after the surgery which I really appreciated as I was nervous going into it. Dr. Lin also made sure to answer any questions I had and made sure I understood the whole process. I can now breathe out of my nose and cosmetically, it fixed the collapse which has made my nose symmetrical. I am very appreciative of him and his team, I highly recommend Dr. Lin! 6 month update - I just saw Dr. Lin for my follow up appointment and I am still extremely happy with my results. Everything has healed perfectly and my breathing has improved so much. I am also still very happy with the appearance of my nose now. Before my surgery, the collapsed valve was causing a lot of asymmetry which has now been corrected. If you're dealing with this issue I highly recommend seeing Dr. Lin!

Everyone at Dr Lin's office was excellent. I had deviated septum surgery with rhinoplasty. There was no pain or bruising. Just pressure from the nasal splints. Once they were removed I could breath better than ever. Never realized you could breath out of your nose that well. I highly recommend Dr Lin and his staff. 6 month update: Everything is still going great. Breathing better than ever. Highly recommend the surgery and Dr Lin.

I recently had a breast reduction and am already thrilled with the results. My decision to have this surgery was based on back, neck and shoulder pain, bras digging into my skin and being uncomfortable while exercising due to having to wear multiple sports bras. I choose Dr. Lin after meeting with 2 other surgeons because he listened to my concerns, explained the procedure and risks clearly, and made me feel confident that he could achieve the outcome I wanted. The day of the surgery, he and his staff made me feel so comfortable and cared for, everyone was friendly and supportive, making sure I had everything I needed from check in until I left the facility. They followed up the next day to make sure everything was going well and have continued to monitor my progress, always available when I had post -op questions. I had no complications, everything healed well and I am in love with my results! Dr. Lin and his staff are truly the best! Happy patient here! I just had my 6 month follow up and everything has healed nicely. Over the summer, I was able to resume all my normal activities and a few that I'd given up on due to the pain and discomfort caused by my breasts. I've been able to start running again with no pain- and I can breathe! No more triple sports bras, no more rashes. I've also been able to comfortably go back to the gym and weight lift as well as participate in aerobics classes. The decision to have this surgery has been one of the best I've ever made. At 60 years old, I am doing things I haven't been able to in years and as a result, feel much more energetic. I can't thank Dr. Lin and his staff enough for seeing me through this journey and helping me achieve such amazing results!

Dr. Lin and his staff took such great care of me throughout the process, from exploring my options to supporting me in the weeks and months post surgery. My recovery was smooth (even easier than I anticipated) and without complication--I attribute much of this to Dr. Lin's brilliant quality of work. My breathing is night-and-day better; even though my breathing was decent prior to my septoplasty, it has improved beyond what I imagined, greatly affecting my quality of life. The cosmetic adjustments improved the general "look" of my nose while maintaining a very natural appearance, which was important to me. Dr. Lin has been helpful in talking through the relationship between cosmetic adjustments and the physical integrity of the nasal structure. As my swelling decreases, I am also reassured in the knowledge that follow-up meetings with Dr. Lin will help us assess whether or not I wish to make any further adjustments; his assurance in being a perfectionist and his wanting me to be thrilled by the end product gives me comfort in knowing that our journey will continue until I am completely satisfied with the appearance of my nose! At six months, my recovery has been incredible. At the four-month-post-op mark, I felt as if my nose had been this way all along; things have settled nicely and the improvement in the quality of my breathing has been tremendous. (No more mornings waking up congested!)
