Amazing Doctor- Happy Patient
I suffered for many years with excessively large breasts which resulted in back and shoulder pain. I always wanted a breast reduction but was nervous of surgery and the resulting recovery. When I finally had the courage to see a plastic surgeon, my primary physician highly recommended Dr. Paul Costas. Once I met Dr. Costas, I was very confident proceeding with a breast reduction and very comfortable with his advice. I was lucky that he was able to fit me into his surgery schedule two weeks after an initial consultation. I am six weeks post-surgery and am amazed the recovery was so easy and virtually painless! I am extremely happy with the results. While I wish I had the surgery years ago, I am glad that Dr. Costas was my surgeon. I highly recommend Dr Costas!

Great Experience
I had double-incision top surgery with Dr. Costas in July 2023. I am 2 weeks post-op and am extremely satisfied with my results. Jane, the office admin, has been amazing! She has been very accommodating and helpful. I do wish that I was given more post-op instructions and supplies, such as tape, gauze, bandages, etc. Overall, I would highly recommend Dr. Costas and his team to anyone who wants top surgery.

Life Changing Experience
Dr Costas and his staff are amazing!!! From the first email to Jane requesting a consult to my post operative care they all have been friendly, caring, encouraging and understanding. Being a trans man with size H breasts I have never liked who I saw staring back at me in the mirror but thanks to Dr Costas and his staff I can look at my reflection and see the person I've always known I was. At the consultation Dr Costas took the time to answer all my questions, showed me some images of how I could expect the procedure to turn out and made jokes which did wonders to make me feel more comfortable. They truly care and understand the struggles a trans person faces and does all they can to make sure they are able to be their authentic self. I will forever recommend Dr Costas to anyone I speak to and will always be grateful to him and his staff for allowing me to finally feel comfortable in my own body.

beyond grateful
Before meeting Dr. Costas I was unsure if I'd go through with my breast reduction. Other doctors I had consults with made me nervous about the process. Dr. Costas was reassuring, knowledgeable, confident, and took his time to answer my questions and explain things. It has been 2 weeks since my surgery and I could not be happier. Everyone involved in the procedure was attentive and caring; it was the best case scenario. In my opinion, Dr. Costas is an expert at what he does. The results are truly amazing. I am healing well and my only regret is that I didn't do it 10 years ago.

Great Surgeon and Staff
"Kind and caring" describes everyone I encountered from a time 7 months ago when I first called the office for an appointment to today, at 1 month follow up. I was so glad to hear of a friend's happiness at having a breast reduction with Dr. Costas that I called for a consultation for the same plus tummy tuck. Things went so smoothly and the office was great at helping me out with everything from pre-op administrative work to questions and phone calls I had after the surgery. I am far from healed yet, but I am so happy so far, and trust that his being pleased with the results means I'll be considered a success in a couple of months both from a doctor's and patient's viewpoint!

Really a gift!!
After encountering a recent facelift patient of Dr. Costas in 2006 I was so impressed that I made a consultation appointment with him. I was immediately impressed with his manner and his knowledge of an esteemed cosmetic surgeon in CA that I had seen. Since then I have trusted Dr. Costas with a variety of surgical issues and have always been very happy with the results. He has been available 24/7. I cannot recommend highly enough the talent, excellence, compassion, and professionalism of Dr. Costas and his office.

a trail-blazing lifesaver and fantastic surgeon
Dr Costas forever improved our teenager's life. Having the wrong body for who you are is a daily, horrible experience. Imagine growing the wrong private parts tomorrow. How would you feel? Would it be easy to get through your day, feel grounded and well, and contribute to the world in a connected and positive way? Dr. Costas understands this. Despite the anti-trans hate and rhetoric that poison our culture, there are people like Dr Costas who understand the true importance of listening to the individual and believing that they best know who they are. Our non-binary teenager and I visited five other surgeons before finally, with great relief and joy, finding one who listened, understood, and did a perfect job. Our teen is now more themself, and for the first time, they smile when they look in the mirror. Now they can move on to contributing their talents in our troubled world. Less hate, more listening. Thank you, Dr. Costas and team.

FTM Top Surgery
Dr.Costas changed my life. As a transgender man I had been binding and waiting for top surgery for 13+ years, thinking it would never happen. Not only Dr.Costas but he’s entire team is welcoming, caring, knowledgeable and committed to his patients. My results came out better than I could have ever dreamed of. I finally feel like I can look in the mirror and recognize the person staring back at me. The entire process from initial contact to post-op appointments has been easy and smooth. Dr.Costas not only cares about giving his patients the best results possible, he cares deeply about his patients and what they need and desire to be their most authentic self. I will always and forever recommend Dr.Costas to anyone and everyone.

Great surgeon, great staff, ok care
My surgery went great, Dr Costas really is a great surgeon and I am really happy with my results. I got double incision top surgery with nipple grafts. Grafts are healing well with good size and position, and I have no dog ears due his use of liposuction. Incisions are pretty good looking. His team (especially Jane Cotter) are all amazing and super helpful, as well as all the staff at Emmerson Hospital I encountered while recovering. Dr. Costas is friendly, although he's not exempt to the stereotype of a plastic surgeon's arrogance. Also you need to buy everything yourself for recovery, he provides you with an ace bandage for compression but I really recommend an actual binder. I did not have tape on my incisions (this might have been due to a possible adhesive allergy, although paper tape was tested and was fine for me), and was not provided dressings for my nipples, which I know are common for other surgeons to provide at the one week post op appointment.

Amazing Doctor!
I have to say Dr. Paul Costas is the nicest, most caring Doctor I have met. My experience with him and his staff is incredible. The surgery basically gave me my life back. He is not only amazing at what he does, but he makes you feel comfortable and secure. You will not be in any better care than with Dr. Costas, MD. I would not hesitate to do it all over again. I have never been happier with my treatment and very fortunate to have had this experience with Dr. Costas. Can't say enough of the amazing results. Top notch in every way!!

There are so many emotions which goes into the work Dr. Costas have done for me. His gentle, knowledgeable, confident way of explaining any procedure he's going to perform puts one at ease. Paul and his staff are wonderful hands down professionals. I would and have recommended CPS to everyone I know. Thank you, Dr. Costas

Amazing experience
Absolute legend, between contacting his office for the first time and my actual surgery date it was only like 6 months which is FANTASTIC considering most surgeons are booked sometimes for years. Any questions I had were answered, his staff was easy to talk to and communicate with. So happy with my results and if I ever need anything again I'm 1,000% going to him again!

Highly recommend Dr Costas!! Immediately upon meeting him I knew he was the one I wanted to do my breast reduction and tummy tuck. I’d seen several doctors prior that I did not feel comfortable with. He was very upfront, honest and easy to talk to. I was completely comfortable going into surgery and so happy with the care I got post-surgery. Dr Costas and his amazing staff were there to answer any questions throughout. They were flexible and accommodating with scheduling appointments. I live on the south shore and he was well worth the hour drive! So happy with my results! Wonderful doctor!

Dr. Costas did my son's rhinoplasty five years ago and my daughter's breast reduction this year. Both of them are thrilled with the results. Dr. Costas did an excellent job and is kind and affirming. Realistic about what is possible, doesn't overpromise but does beautiful work. I called him twice after hours with questions about wound care and he responded immediately and with patience. We found his office staff to be similarly kind and helpful. Definitely recommend.
