Facelift surgery addresses visible signs of aging in the face and neck through precise tissue repositioning and skin tightening. This procedure effectively reduces wrinkles, sagging skin, and facial volume loss while maintaining natural expressions. Ideal candidates seeking a more youthful appearance benefit from customized surgical approaches tailored to their unique anatomy and aesthetic goals.

Nasal surgery reshapes the nose to improve proportion, symmetry, and breathing function. The procedure addresses concerns about size, shape, and structural irregularities while maintaining facial harmony. Patients achieve enhanced facial balance through both cosmetic refinements and functional improvements for better respiratory performance.

Breast augmentation enhances size and shape through implant placement or fat transfer techniques. This procedure addresses volume loss, asymmetry, or congenital concerns while creating natural-looking results that complement individual body proportions. Customized approaches ensure optimal implant selection and placement for long-lasting satisfaction.

Liposuction removes localized fat deposits to improve body contours and proportions. This procedure targets stubborn areas resistant to diet and exercise while preserving skin elasticity and natural curves. Advanced techniques ensure smooth results with minimal downtime for enhanced body confidence.

Abdominal surgery removes excess skin and fat while repairing separated muscles for improved core contouring. This procedure addresses post-pregnancy changes, significant weight loss effects, or aging-related laxity. Comprehensive treatment creates a flatter, more toned abdominal profile with lasting results.

I have practiced plastic surgery in Manhattan for over 30 years with leadership roles at major hospitals and repeated recognition as a Castle Connolly Top Doctor.

Recovery timelines vary by procedure but all patients receive detailed postoperative care instructions and personalized follow-up to ensure optimal healing.

While surgical results are long-lasting, natural aging and lifestyle factors may affect longevity. Proper skincare and healthy habits help maintain outcomes.

Patient safety is paramount with comprehensive preoperative assessments and thorough postoperative monitoring to minimize risks and address any concerns promptly.

I had a torn ear lobe and I went to Dr. Thorne looking to get it fixed. The whole process went super smooth, he has very gentle hands that while I was getting it fixed I did not feel any pain. His staff is very welcoming and friendly. Would highly recommend him!

I adore this man! I cannot say enough good things about him and his wonderful office staff. He took what could have been a very scary and difficult procedure and made me feel understood, safe, and cared for. He also brought in one of the top surgeons for deviated septum surgery to assist in making sure I was able to breathe like a champ when all was said and done. Dr. Thorne is a remarkably accomplished man who still treats each patient like they were his only patient. I am grateful for his kindness, patience, humility, and care. Thank you, Dr. Thorne!

Dr. Thorne.what can I say? You cannot find a more kind doctor in the US. Dr. Thorne just helped our family complete a very intensive 4 part ear creation/reconstruction over the course of 1.5+ years. At each step of the process Dr. Thorne displayed care, compassion, clarity, and precision. We couldn't be more pleased with the process and outcome. By the end of the process, Dr. Thorne felt virtually like a family member. I can recommend Dr T. will be the best decision you can make for whatever surgery or process you are considering. 10/5 stars.

I had a botched otoplasty 37 years ago. (yes, 37 years ago.) Immediately afterwards I consulted a different doctor and was told there was nothing they could do, so I just went about my life until somebody referred me to Dr. Thorne. I made an appointment and he told me he could do a revision otoplasty, Best decision ever. Dr. Thorne is not only the expert when it comes to ears, he is also a very kind, caring doctor.

I immediately felt comfortable discussing my situation with him and he explained everything to me very professionally with just enough humor to put me at ease. He was very patient as I asked endless questions during my initial appointment, prior to surgery, and at follow-up appointments. Wonderful bedside manner. The surgery was a success! Yes, it was a little pricey. But we are talking New York City and a top-notch doctor, who will definitely make sure you are satisfied with your results.

I just wish I would have found Dr. Thorne years ago. Also, his office staff are very kind and helpful. Denise is always available to answer questions and responds quickly to emails. The whole experience was very pleasant and I would highly recommend Dr. Thorne.

Dr. Thorne is a one of kind surgeon and human on this earth. From the moment I met him I felt safe, seen, heard and most importantly - confident that I had found the right surgeon for me. His attention to detail is not only incrdible, but it's so clearly unique to each individual he meets. Walking into Dr. Thorne's office for the first time was unbelievably refreshing. His staff (LeeAnn and Denise) treated me like I was already a patient when I had only known them just a few minutes. I am incredibly grateful that the universe brought me to these wonderful people. I could not reccomend Dr. Thorne enough, he is IT.

Dr. Thorne is a fantastic plastic surgeon who knows exactly what he is doing. I'm 3 weeks post op and I am so happy with my results. My consultation with him reassured me that the results would be exactly what I was looking for. The swelling isn't even down yet and if I'm this excited about it now I can't wait to see the final result a year from now.

Dr. Thorne and his staff are amazing! About a year ago, I had terrible complications with what was supposed to be a simple earlobe repair after my previous dermatologist did a procedure on it. Dr. Thorne came highly recommended and the moment I had my consultation with him, I had a feeling I was in good hands. Every aspect of my process with him and his staff was timely, professional, friendly and thoughtful.

Not to mention, he did an absolutely AMAZING job on something I thought would be unsalvageable. He is smart, genuine and takes the time to listen to you and makes you feel that everything will be ok. His staff is also amazing. Setting appointments, following up and ensuring / non-existent wait times are just some of what come to mind. I have nothing but amazing things to say about this practice. Thank you Dr. Thorne and staff!
