Facial plastic surgery, such as rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, and facelift surgery can be a life-changing event. Here is a collection of unsolicited letters that some of Dr. Bustillo’s patients have written about their experiences.
Rhinoplasty
Dear Dr. Bustillo,
I hope this email finds you and your staff well. It has been a year since my revision rhinoplasty surgery and I want to thank you for the life changing job you have done. Every time I look at myself in the mirror I smile and thank you a million times. The results look so natural and I’ve received so many compliments that it has made me very confident and comfortable in my own skin. I also want to thank your friendly and attentive staff for making each of my visits a pleasant one. I am amazed at how fast I recovered and the care that I received after my surgery. I am highly satisfied and will forever be grateful. You are a very gifted doctor and I will definitely recommend your professional expertise to others.
With a smile from ear to ear, thank you Dr. Bustillo!

As you know, I am a nurse at the surgery center where you operate. I had wanted to have my nose operated since I was a teenager, but I was very afraid to undergo the surgery. However, since I first saw your work in the operating room, I knew that I wanted you to do my surgery. I knew your were the right one right away.
It’s been 7 months since I had the surgery with you and I am so happy that I did the surgery. I had no idea the experience was going to be this wonderful. You took the time to explain everything from the beginning to the end. Everything you said was right on from the painless recovery to the minimal to no bruising. How do you do it??
I would like to thank you and your staff for providing a comfortable, caring and non-pretentious atmosphere. The culture in your office is amazing.
Last, but not least, I love my new nose. It’s everything I ever wanted and more. It’s not too small, it’s not to big and the tip is perfect. It turned out exactly how you said it was going to look like. I cannot thank you enough! I will recommend you to everyone.
Forever grateful,
Jessica
I cannot begin to express what you have done for me. I feel I have my life and my youth back. I am 56 years old and I was married last month, 3 months after my surgery. Everyone was awestruck at how beautiful I looked.
You did a beautiful job. My face has not changed, it’s just younger. You are truly a gifted artist. I have already sent you a new patient, too. This was one of the best things I have ever done for myself.
Thank you,
Christina
Dear Dr. Bustillo,
Thank you Thank you !! You made the experience of going through my rhinoplasty a wonderful one. The consultation with you was amazing! You explained every detail and put me at ease. Everything went just as you said. My new nose looks fabulous, and just like you said, ” nobody will be able to tell you had surgery. ”

Dear Dr. Bustillo,
Thank you for giving me the nose that I always wanted. I am still surprised at how easy everything was. Your explanations about the entire process were right down to the last detail ! Your call the night before and after surgery made me feel at ease and showed you truly care.

Dear Dr. Bustillo & Bridie,
Thank you for the expert and professional care I received during my recent surgery. You were both so helpful in giving me peace of mind about something I was very nervous about. Even more importantly, I am sure your expertise will result in a very positive outcome as I further heal.
Best regards,

Dear Dr. Bustillo,
Thank you for taking great care of my daughter. Her nose looks awesome! I truly appreciate your care and compassion. I also loved the way you went over all the little details about the procedure during the consultation. I will see you soon for my eyes!!

Dear Dr. Bustillo,
Having had friends that were operated by you I knew the results would be great. However, I never expected such an amazing change in my looks, which have further improved my confidence. I look freshened, but not pulled. After having gone through major life changes this year (divorce) , this has helped me to get back on track.
Thank you very much.

Dr. Bustillo,
It was great to see you today. Just wanted to send you a quick email to thank you once again. My mom, Aleida Alfonso, was extremely pleased with the results from the restylane injections, made her feel rejuvenated instantly!
I can’t believe it’s been a year since my rhinoplasty procedure. I have to tell you that I think of you often because you have changed my life; in the way I see myself. I have to confess that my results are so natural that when I look at myself in the mirror, I can’t remember what I looked like before, as if this is how I have always been. Your vision and natural approach are unsurpassed, but most of all, your nature, kindness, dedication, and expertise to your profession are visible and transcends effortlessly to all of your patients.
I have referred several people to you: friends and even acquantances if the conversation arises and falls anywhere near your expertise, and will continue to do so…
As always, we are grateful to you and your staff whose always so warm and caring.
With warm regards,
Aleida
Dear Dr. Bustillo,
Just a little note to let you know that I really appreciate what you did for me. Having had previous (and unsuccessful) surgery, I understood that my case was not straight forward. Thank for taking the time to explain everything. Most importantly, thank you for giving me a beautiful nose.

Facelift
Dear Dr. Bustillo,
I just wanted to write and thank you for my new face! You have no idea how this has made me feel.
I thought about having my facelift done for a very long time. However, I was anxious and nervous about having my facial expressions changed. I knew you were the right surgeon during the consultation.
I am delighted with the results and have found a new feeling of self worth. I am more confident and assertive in all situations.
Thank you,
M.C.
I want to say how happy I am with your great job on my facelift. All of my friends comment on how great I look after the surgery. I keep looking at myself in the mirror being extremely happy. Again, you are an excellent person and surgeon. Thank you very much for a wonderful job!
Sincerely,
S.A.

Adam’s nose looks great! Thanks so much, God’s blessings and you and your work.

Hi Dr. Bustillo,
I hope this email finds you well. I wanted to share my good news with you.I am getting married December 19th, a year after my surgery! I owe this in part to you. With the success of the surgery, I regained my self confidence. I was no longer embarrassed about my appearance. I can’t thank you enough. You are an amazing doctor and a great person.
Kindest Regards,

Eye Lift
After my first visit to your office, I left feeling highly impressed and quite dazzled, thinking that this must be what it feels like when very wealthy women go to world-class cosmetic surgeons. Your office is very tastefully decorated; a strong sense of confidentiality permeated the space. You met with me and spent time discussing what you though was the right treatment. You took your time and explained everything in great detail. Actually, over the years I have gone to a number of cosmetic treatment centers in my efforts to maintain my youthfulness but have often felt like one of a “herd”. The doctors and nurses alike were clearly on a tight schedule; we all had to talk fast and then be off.
I felt that you had all the time for me that I wanted. You wanted to know all about me, past, present, and future so that you could best help me achieve my personal visions. Everything was explained thoroughly; you unquestionable care first and foremost about your patients. I have gone to any number of good doctors, but this was mind-changing. Normally, doctors convey a sense of self-importance and authority. In sharp contrast, you engendered a sense of respect and unconditional regard for me.
It is now 4 months after my neck and eyelift. I look wonderful and natural. So much that many people have not noticed that I had surgery. All they say how “rested” and “fresh” I look. Thank you for everything you have done. It was truly an eye-opening experience to have had surgery with you.
Sincerely
Cathy
Chin Augmentation
Dear Dr. Bustillo,
I want to thank you for doing an amazing job on my chin! I was so apprehensive about the procedure before doing it, but it was the kind of thing I knew I had to do. I feel much more confident at work and in social settings. My only regret is not doing it earlier when I was in college. The procedure went just as you said it would (amazing!) and the results are even better that was I was expecting.
Thank you very much.
Robert
