Dr. Barry Weintraub, a board-certified plastic surgeon practicing in the heart of New York on Fifth Avenue and 61st Street, has recently been named one of America’s Best Plastic Surgeons in 2023 for facelift surgery by Newsweek. Top professionals in the field have recognized Dr. Weintraub by voting for him in this prestigious publication, which recently released its annual list of the Best Plastic Surgeons for 2023.
“I am truly honored to be recognized by Newsweek as one of the best plastic surgeons for 2023,” said Dr. Weintraub. “I am dedicated to providing my patients with the highest quality of medical and plastic-surgical care, as well as delivering the most sophisticated, age-appropriate results always with a keen eye toward natural attractiveness.”
Dr. Weintraub shares this philosophy with his entire staff, who provide an atmosphere of respect and compassion. Every patient admitted to his surgical facility experiences not just a personalized interaction, but also a personalized plan for their overall aesthetic – whether it be a surgical plan encompassing facelift, neck lift, blepharoplasty (eyelid lift), rhinoplasty and/or revisionary surgery, or a noninvasive plan involving skincare and injectable, lasers, microneedling or any number of non-invasive approaches.
Board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, Dr. Barry Weintraub has over 30 years of experience and has earned a reputation for his exceptionally natural-looking results.
“You should never be able to tell that someone had surgery. Less is always more!” said Dr. Weintraub. “I have made it my mission to give patients the most understated and natural results while avoiding the telltale signs of surgery.”
For his facelifts, he hides all incisions inside the tragus in the ear so that the hairline incision is not visible. For his rhinoplasty patients, he either employs the “closed” technique – or for the “open” approach, he sews with suture material finer than a human hair (as he does with his upper-eyelid surgeries). Painstakingly, he sews all incisions under loupe magnification for the thinnest incisions possible.
“There are many different modalities to correct skin laxity, jowl formation, deep nasolabial folds, turkey-gobble necks, eye bags, plunging nasal tips and bumps on noses. It’s always my pleasure to help educate patients about what meets their needs and fits their lifestyles.”
A regular recipient of the titles “Best Plastic Surgeons in America” and “Best Doctors in New York” by Castle Connolly, Dr. Weintraub holds in high regard the ideals he was taught at Cornell, both in medical school as well as his plastic-surgical fellowship, during a time when patient care and compassion were almost religiously revered.
Dr. Weintraub believes that physicians should be welcoming, respectful and must never lose sight that it’s a sacred privilege to operate on another human being— that each patient is a person possessing real-life issues and concerns.
“Surgery is not a horse race,” he states, “and taking time is essential to patient safety, as well as ensuring an outstanding, understated and natural-looking result.”
