"In my book, age is relative. Admit that you’re 50 and many people immediately pigeon-hole you. I’ve never acted my age, but unfortunately my face detailed the histories of my birthdays. Just to get some information I scheduled consultations with several general plastic surgeons, and the Glasgold Group. Dr. Alvin, Dr. Mark, and Dr. Robert blew all the others away. On the day of my consultation they put me at complete ease. Their manner was so unhurried and attentive that I found myself easily conveying what I hoped facial plastic surgery could do for me. A `refresher’ plan was designed, and instead of the blepharoplasty that I thought I needed, we decided to try Botox to alleviate crow’s feet around the eyes, and the wrinkles across my brow. Dr. Robert also performed a non-surgical lower blepharoplasty to get rid of the dark hollows I always hated under my eyes. The best part: my procedures were no-fuss quick fixes that allowed me to walk out of the center looking as wonderful as I felt!”
—Joan, 50-year-old events planner
“My goal from facial plastic surgery was to look like my familiar self, just better. I really didn’t know if this was possible. Then I spotted a Glasgold Group advertisement that showed `before’ and `after’ examples of the group’s work that were so impressive that I decided to schedule a consultation. From the moment I walked through its door I felt confident that I had made the right decision. The surroundings were tranquil and soothing, and the friendly, professional staff was able to answer every one of my many preliminary questions. Then I met the surgeons who recommended a direct neck excision. The results of my surgery were everything I hoped. And to prove it I’ve traded in my trademark turtleneck sweaters for tops with jewel necklines.”
—Beverly, 48, general litigation attorney
“Before my facelift I avoided looking in the mirror unless it was to put on makeup. I was extremely conscious of a sagging face and neck. In fact, I was so upset about my aging face that I took my unhappiness out on my husband. Things got so bad that one day my husband jokingly said that he’d treat me to a facelift. Was he surprised when I took him up on it! Since I’m the kind of person who believes in specialists for everything (my mechanic only works on Mercedes), I interviewed facial plastic surgeons. I chose Dr. Mark Glasgold of the Glasgold Group Plastic Surgery, because he specializes in facelifts and fat transfers. He did a spectacular job, ridding me of my chipmunk cheeks while completely refreshing the lower part of my face and neck. Now, thanks to Dr. Glasgold and my terrific husband, my life is much improved.”
----Harriet, 65, retired social worker
“Why did I undergo a blepharoplasty and forehead lift? People kept telling me that I looked tired, angry and worn out. My job held no challenge, but I was reluctant to make a move because I realized that at age 55 I’d be competing against younger candidates. So for me, cosmetic surgery was a necessity. I scheduled my two week vacation to coincide with my surgeries which were performed by Dr. Robert Glasgold. He was highly recommended by my primary care physician whose judgment I completely trust. Dr. Glasgold is a young man who is familiar with the latest cosmetic surgery techniques and there are two other members of his family with whom he works—a great support system. About a month after my surgery I bought myself a Hugo Boss suit and confidently began circulating my résumé.”
—Ryan, long-term care insurance agent
“When my best friend since junior high school asked me to accompany her to a consultation for a rhinoplasty at the Glasgold Group’s center I tried to talk her out of it, even though I knew how self-conscious she was about her rather prominent nose. I wasn’t exactly happy with my nose either and you didn’t see me running for surgery. She requested that I be present during the consultation with Dr. Alvin Glasgold and he readily agreed. He was just wonderful, taking lots of time to explain the procedure and exactly how Marion could expect her nose to look; at one point he even used computer imaging to give her a better idea. Together they came up with a nose shaped to fit her face. By the time we were through I was as excited about the prospect of Marion’s new, improved nose as she was. And to prove it, she accompanied me for my rhinoplasty consultation a few months after her own surgery.”
---Lydia, 22, Rutgers college student
“I’ve always been afraid of the unknown. What I really like about the way the Glasgold Group works is that everything is explained in detail so that there are no surprises down the road. I was given take-away materials about a mid-face lift that set the groundwork to ask specific questions of Dr. Mark, my surgeon, during our initial consultation. His patient coordinator also was very responsive to my questions. I learned exactly what a mid-face lift could and couldn’t do, got a general idea of how the surgery would be performed, that it could be done in one of three fully accredited outpatient centers, what anesthesia would be used, and how long everything would take. I also was told what I could expect post-surgically, and the protocol to follow about two weeks prior to surgery, such as not taking aspirin or Vitamin E. What I really appreciated was receiving a call that night after my surgery asking how I was doing and if I had any questions or concerns. While many people have complimented me on how terrific I look, I don’t think anyone suspects that I’ve had plastic surgery, which is my preference.”

I just want to thank you again for everything that you have done for me. I feel so much better about my appearance and my attitude when I talk to people. I no longer feel like everyone is staring at my wrinkles.
I hope the many people who have asked for your card are seeing you. There have been many compliments to you on your incredible work and I just wanted to share this with you.
Many, many thanks again.

Hi Mark,
I’m sitting on the beach looking great and feeling good and all because of you! I can’t thank you enough for giving me back the body I had twenty years ago! I’ve spent a fortune on string bikinis and I love it. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU –
See you in September.

Dr. Alvin Glasgold,
Last year, March 7th is when I went for rhinoplasty and I have to say it was the best decision I have ever made. I just want to thank you for changing my life and for the first time making me feel beautiful. You’re an amazing person. Thanks again.

I am sure we will be in touch again in the future.
Hoping this finds you all well.

In Dec 1976, Dr. Glasgold performed plastic surgery on my nose. I saw his name on the internet, and thought I would take this moment to tell you how happy I have been all these years. In almost 30 years, not one person has been able to guess I have had my nose fixed. I am proud to tell people, especially people who tell me they can “always” spot a nose job.
Thank you,

Dear Dr. Mark:
I want you to know what a terrific experience my eye surgery and follow up care was for me. (Procedure date was November 2004)
The results are wonderful and I especially appreciate the extra care you took to ensure a wonderful results (restylane injection, laser surface treatment) etc.
You are extremely professional and competent, but also extremely sensitive to patient concern and care. It was very comforting to know that your concern for patients is such a high priority. I especially noted the specialized talents of your colleagues and can’t say enough about how much I trust your judgement.
The entire staff is outstanding and everyone is professional, emphatic and pleasant.
I had a great deal of concern about even selecting to have the procedure, and my experience has led to me recommending the group to my daughter who is contemplating having some work done to her nose.

Dear Dr. Mark,
This brief note is to acknowledge how generous, thoughtful, and extremely kind you have been during my illness and inevitable surgery at Robert Wood Johnson Hospital. I, more than anyone, appreciate the special favor of going out of your way to speed me through the admissions process at RWJ. The doctors and nurses were superb and the care was ever present following surgery. Thank you for the lovely room with a window and the magnificent bouquet of flowers to brighten some of my bleakest moments. The gorgeous yellow sunflower and orange gerken daisies brought sunshine and a smile to my stay. Thank you for your frequent visits and your concern for my welfare. You are the best!
With warmth and fondness,

Dear Dr. Alvin and Dr. Mark,
A brief note to again express my appreciation to you both. I had my “after” photos taken last week and I look at them each day to remind myself of the “before”! I’m indebted to you for what you have done for me – you made incredible physical changes that contributed to positive mental changes.
My friends all say I look great, but they don’t know why!!
With all my heart I thank you both.

Dear Mark,
Thank you so much for the complimentary consultation last week. That was very nice of you.
I truly appreciate your honesty with me and at some point in the “not-too-distant” future will see you again.
Please send me some of your cards because people ask me for advice very often.
Warm Regards,

Dear Dr. Mark,
Just wanted to drop a note of thanks. At my last botox visit when I inquired about a new fat deposit on my eye, you took the time to discuss my hypothyroid condition. Considering your comments, I changed doctors and my TSH has gone from 5.5 to .5. Not only do I feel much better, but the fat tissue has almost gone away!
Thank you for being a genuine doctor stepping out of the specialty box.
Sincerely & Gratefully,
LM

Dear Dr. Glasgold,
Just wanted to thank you again for the beautiful and artistic job you did on Jeremy’s nose. He looks natural and wonderful.
The total experience which began when meeting with you has been positively great. You made the experience, which could have been quite harrowing, into one that went remarkably smoothly. Even the hospital stay was pleasant.
Again, thank you for your sincerity and caring. There is no way we could have gone through this procedure for J without you. My husband & I will still keep our original large noses however, we still are too chicken to change our good looks.
Fondly,
L,J, and J

Dear Dr. Alvin,
I can’t thank you enough for what you did for me by correcting my nose. It’s almost been two years now (4/2/02) and time and time again I get compliments on my nose.
I don’t know if you remember, but Dr. H really botched up my nose and septum. You graphed my ear, fixed my nose as well as doing my eyes at the same time.
Every time I look in the mirror I am so thankful that I had found you to help me. Prior to the surgery with you, I didn’t feel good about myself, and nothing can change that until you fix what it is that brings your spirit down. So thank you again for making my life so much better!!! I actually have an appointment to see you soon again, so until then I just wanted to extend my greatest thanks and appreciation.
Hope all is well

You are the Best! Thank you for your kindness, and for helping me to look (on the outside) the way I feel (on the inside)!
