Mark N. Berkowitz, MD — Local services in Sterling Heights

After years of contemplation, much online research, and after meeting with more than one hair restoration facility, I opted to have my hair restoration procedure done by Dr. Mark Berkowitz. He took time to meet with me personally and answer questions, before making the commitment to have the procedure done. He and his staff are exceptionally skilled and caring people. My wife and I really liked the doctor right away. He is genuine, brilliant and very cool. There was absolutely no pressure or sales tactics here. When you are the best, you don't need to pressure anyone.The technical staff "Maria" and "Jessica" were personable, knowledgable and professional while answering my followup questions, and explaining everything to me. They want you to be satisfied and exceed your goals and expectations.The front desk staff were also worth mentioning, by virtue of their kindness and helpfulness. I had the usual concerns and apprehension most people considering this procedure would have.You want the best people to do the job because the consequences are lasting.Without the professionalism of Dr. Berkowitz and his staff, I may have put it off a few more years--perhaps indefinitely. Dr. Berkowitz has had the NeoGraft procedure done himself. His before and after hair results are pretty impressive. He has documented his process on line. Having been through this surgery, he was able to answer questions and explain the process and his personal experience, first hand.There are helpful videos online as well. I found them informative, reassuring and well worth watching. The office also has some before and after photos, which I really appreciated. Expect to be there all day and free of your cellphone, laptop, etc to allow them to use their talents to give you the best results.The pain was minimal, limited to the initial injections to numb my scalp.This lasted about 30 seconds. The doctor instructed me to breath a specific way, as Mindy rubbed my shoulder to help put me at ease as numbness set in on my scalp. I found this especially compassionate. It also reinforces the empathetic and caring nature of these people. From there on out, I felt no pain whatsoever.I had my surgery two weeks ago. I am excited to see the results continue to progress, over time. The healing is now complete and the baseball hat is off. Dr. Berkowitz is both a skilled artist and gifted surgeon. His understanding of aesthetics and eye for detail are evident immediately. He designed a natural frontal hair line and paid close attention to follow the swirl pattern of the remaining hair at the crown of my scalp, to recreate what I once had. It takes a skilled surgeon and team, to complete this complex procedure.I was especially fortunate to have his team leader "Mindy". I met with Mindy just before beginning the surgery. She is dedicated, talented and caring. I really can’t imagine how they can do something so tedious for 12 hours. I received 2500 grafts, as I slept. Their skilled workmanship is already evident after the initial healing. My scalp healed very fast. I purchased all of the necessary post operative supplies in advance, then followed their helpful instructional packet to the letter. I do not see even a single scar on my scalp. It’s best to allow five days recovery at home if you don't want others to know you have had this surgery. You cannot wear a hat until the fifth day and there will be some obvious scabbing. After 10 days, nobody can tell any surgery was done.My wife really likes this staff as well. She has enjoyed a skin facial and has scheduled a second one on the day they review my one month progress. I am grateful to Dr. Berkowitz and each and every person on his staff, for their kindness, expertise and compassion.They have given me their best efforts to obtain the results I am hoping for. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Berkowitz without hesitation, to men or woman considering this hair restoration procedure. It was not an easy decision, but Dr. Berkowitz and his team made the choice easy. 8 MO POST OP UPDATE:7/04/19 I LOVE MY...

These are pictures from the Juvederm lip fillers I received by Dr. Berkowitz in July 2018. I didn't share them for the longest time, but after going through some old photos and coming across these, I got so angry I couldn't help but post them. I went to Dr. Berkowitz because he was one of the highest rated doctors in the Detroit, Michigan area and this was my first time receiving fillers, but I was extremely dissatisfied with my results. A procedure that was intended to improve my self-image extremely hurt my self-esteem. I cried, and refused to smile with my mouth open for months because of the disgusting lumps and bumps on my lips I was left with thanks to this doctor. I had the injections dissolved in multiple places twice afterwards so I wouldn't looked as BOTCHED. Even more irritating than the obvious mistakes make when injecting my filler was the doctor and staff's refusal to fix the problems. Each time I requested the hyaluronidase to have the filler dissolved, Dr. Berkowitz ensured me that my lips looked fantastic and "if I was his daughter, he would tell me not to touch them." Either he's blind or doesn't like his daughter very much... He left me looking like a...

I had under eye, tear trough and cheek fillers performed by Dr. Berkowitz and I'm happy with it. Dr. Berkowitz is an Ophthalmologist and a Plastic Surgeon so that is why I chose to go to him. You can't mess around with fly-by-night med spas or Plastic Surgeon's that don't specialize in the eye area when injecting filler around your eyes. There are nerves, blood vessels and delicate anatomy that could be damaged forever if the injector doesn't know these structures very well.

I had the procedure done twice now over 2-3 years and initially had some excessive swelling and bruising for about 5 days (my body is sensitive to everything), but when it went down everything looked good.

EDIT review: went back in 2024 and they denied ever doing under eye fillers on me. What?? So what did they do wrong if they are denying ever doing filler on my eyes? I just wanted an upper-lower bleph quote. I think I've changed my mind on this place. That is unprofssional and very suspicious behavior. How can I trust you to do other eye procedures on me now if you may deny...
