I had a S Facelift, Brow lift, Bilateral Blepharoplasty, and a fat transfer done in November 2018 and Botox in January 2019. Let me start with the good new first. I am happy with the results of the neck and jowls. However, that is the only good news. The S Facelift has left my ears and tragus protruding. The Brow lift has left one eyebrow slightly higher than the other and both sides seems to have dropped rather than lifted. The fat transfer has made no difference in the midface, the smile line, the marionettes, and the frown line. The Bilateral Blepharoplasty has left my eyes with malar edema and a sunken hollow eye appearance, and my eyes are significantly smaller with a more Asian shape. When I went in for my 2 month follow up appointment on my surgery, I expressed my unhappiness with the results of my eyes. The doctor quickly gave me steroid injections to each eyelid, which unfortunately left indentations. After being ignored about my frustration with the results of the steroid injections, finally 2 months later he injected Restylane filler, to fill in the indentations. This treatment unfortunately left my eyes looking even worse. At this point, they said that they could not provide more treatments to correct the problem. The Botox I had in January 2019 required 3 touch ups, which still did not correct the issue. That was 3 more days of work I lost in order to drive there; not to mention the cost of parking. When I requested a copy of my Op Report, I got the run around and they told me that there were typos on the report and they needed to revise prior to releasing it to me. I had to call the office daily to remind them and each time I called they had an excuse why the Op Report was not done. When I finally received a copy of the report, I informed one of the staff members that I would not be returning. This is when I received a call from the doctor which I did not answer because at that point, I had lost ALL trust. After consulting with other surgeons, they were all in disbelief. I had to then take out another loan to start correcting these issues. I NEVER anticipated this to happen. I have since had the fillers dissolved, laser resurfacing, a series of 2 fat transfer treatments and Botox that was done perfectly that did not require any touch ups and half the price. This is just the beginning of many surgeries needed. Not only has this ruined my life, but my family is also suffering. Without, my daughters financial help, we would be homeless. My daughter got a job while at the same time she attends college and will start medical school soon, to help me with these expenses. This practice will put a lot of pressure on you when they want to get paid but if you have any concerns, they make it very difficult if not impossible to correct. Not only are they aggressive about payment but also about writing good reviews even without knowing the final results of your surgery. I hope this review will help those considering any type of surgery.

After losing a lot of my hair Dr. Hopping suggested PRP therapy. I had the first three required and have had one a year for the two years since as a booster. My hair is almost back! It may not be like it was when I was 25, but I not longer see my scalp through my hair and if feels thick and healthy! I would certainly suggest it to anyone (especially women) with hair loss!!!!

I have gotten lip injections, botox, and injectables under and between my eyes. I've worked with Dr. Hopping himself and Sunita, who is a wonderful nurse that is part of the staff. All experiences have been painless and I've loved the results! I highly recommend Dr. Hopping to anyone looking for a knowledgable plastic surgeon with a lot of experience.

Wonderful facility. Amazing staff. I've been a satisfied patient of Dr. Hopping's for more than 20 years. Having been to a number of other facillities in the DC area, I can attest to the talent of this man and plan to remain his patient for years to come.

I had considered consultations with other doctors in DC and Manhattan while deciding whether to do any plastic surgery at all, but the day of my consultation with Dr. Hopping I received a email from a friend saying "Don't go anywhere else but to Dr. Hopping." So that clinched it. (I subsequently heard the same recommendation from other friends and even my doctors.) I had a lower face and neck lift as well as eyelid surgery and a peel. I am thrilled with the results. I still look like myself only better. Dr. Hopping is outstanding.

Several procedures later....I look years younger.
He will not give you the California wind blown look.... if that is what you're looking for he is not your guy. His results are much more natural-looking. He's wonderful!

I have since changed my name, but in 2012 I had liposuction on my stomach, flanks, arms, and face with Dr Hopping while he worked with another surgeon to do a breast augmentation. Dr Hopping chose to do liposuction on my stomach as well as sculpting.

The results of the liposuction on my stomach was disastrous. My belly button was ruined and scarring under the skin from the "sculpting" was uneven and caused lumps and ripples on my stomach. He said that he took out as much fat that was advised. However, no fat on the top part of my stomach had been touched, which caused a fat roll.

When I told Dr Hopping about the fat roll he denied neglecting the top part of my stomach and dismissed me when I complained about the rippling.

I was so depressed about my appearance and the wasted money that I gave up hope and I have been living with it ever since.

It has affected what clothes I can wear, my self-confidence, and being intimate with my husband.

I have not talked about this publicly until now. Maybe this will help someone else.

Dr. Hopping gave me the nose of my dreams! His staff was extremely courteous and friendly and made his operation run seamlessly so that one never had to wait for their appointment. He is extremely thorough with his follow-up appointments and obviously takes a great interest in each and every patient. In addition, one can tell that he is proud of the work he does, which only further made me appreciate the surgery. I had absolutely no pain and minimal swelling and bruising and, of course, the end result was fantastic! A completely natural-looking nose which I will enjoy for the rest of my life!
