Reviews for Facial Plastic Surgery Associates
"Dr. Kridel is a brilliant, compassionate surgeon (artist) who delivered the most natural appearance for my Sinuplasty-Rhinoplasty procedure. For decades every doctor i went to said ‘you have a deviated septum’. Honestly I put this surgery off for decades. There were a variety of reasons for the delay including recovery time, how I would look and which surgeon to select. I cannot thank Dr. Kridel & his staff & the nurses that took such good care of me. I have never breathed better in my life. The septum was approximately 90% closed. No one can believe I only had nose surgery. They swear I’ve had a facelift.! I sleep better. I feel better. I never have earaches anymore, and my eyes are as white as snow. I am a raving fan and am happy to give a 100% recommendation to Dr. Kridel & team. Sharon Williams Kirwan Houston, TX"
"Dr. Delaney is an excellent doctor. He performs any procedure so expertly the results are perfect. He has such a wonderful eye, the results never look artificial or exaggerated. The staff is great, too. A very pleasant office experience!"
"Best practice in Houston. Dr Delaney fixed my lip injections done at a med spa. He took time to set out realistic goals for future work I’d like done. I’ve seen Dr Kridel for years in the past and he’s the best of the best. You are in the best care under these doctors and staff."
"I love coming to this practice. Dr. Delaney and his team are excellent. They listen to your goals and impart realistic advice, and the services they offer are top-notch. Their new location is beautiful."
"Dr. Delaney and his staff are so wonderful and kind. Dr. Delaney knows what he’s doing, is conservative in his procedures (which I appreciate) and just overall a top notch facility!!"
"Thank you Dr. Kridel, for making me look young again. Results are amazing and I appreciate all your help, guidance and passion to achieve best results!"
"Facial Plastic Surgery Associates are fantastic. Dr. Delaney has helped my husband regain a normal look around both eyes after a bad accident, without surgery. It is amazing."
"I had a bump on my nose that bothered me for years and years. I avoided taking photos like the plague. I finally decided to do something about it. I was so nervous about having surgery, that it took months before I actually visited any doctors. I did a bunch of research and asked around. Dr. Kridel's name would come up alot. So, I went to see him and another doc for a Rhinoplasty consultation. WOW! Did I make the right decision. My nose looks amazing! My friends have given me lots of compliments. I can't walk by a mirror without looking at myself. My confidence got a big boost. I was also surprised that the post-op was so much easier and less painful than I thought it would be. Dr. Kridel's staff was great too. Really put me at ease. I would highly recommend Dr. Kridel to anyone."
"I had revision rhinoplasty with Dr. Kridel in March of 2023. It has now been 1 year since my surgery and I am extremely pleased with the results! I originally met with Dr. Kridel in 2017 to discuss my initial rhinoplasty I was contemplating. I loved Dr. Kridel during our first meeting. However, I allowed other people’s (family & friends) opinions of what the procedure should cost and what I needed to have done influence my decision. I had rhinoplasty done in 2019 with a different doctor. 4 years later I had a large divot on one side, the opposite side had multiple subtle bumps, I had to pull my airway open on one side to breath through both nostrils, among other things. When I made the decision to have a revision done in 2023 I started my research over and found a couple doctors who specialized in revisions. At the end of the day I knew in my heart who was the right choice and, based on my previous experience, I decided to go with the doctor I trusted, Dr. Kridel. I was very nervous at my first consultation because I was embarrassed that I was coming back 6 years later asking him to fix what another surgeon did. He was extremely kind, professional, understanding and non judgmental. I was so relieved and happy, I knew right away that this was the right choice. From my initial consultation, my surgery, the follow ups, interactions with the staff and fellows, to a year later… I can’t say enough nice things about Dr. Kridel and his entire staff. Their professionalism is top notch. One thing that I really appreciated was the detailed information packet Dr. Kridel gave me before my surgery. I read every page and by the time I was done I felt like I had an understanding of the entire process, the healing process and what I should expect in the years that follow my procedure. I could go on and on about how wonderful my experience has been. I LOVE my results! Dr. Kridel, thank you for your attention to detail, listening to me, being kind, professional and most of all, my results!"
"Dr Delaney is a not only a fantastic surgeon and physician, but he is also a caring and warm professional. He and his staff made me immediately comfortable for my consultation. They listened to my concerns and provided recommendations that fit my lifestyle. I highly recommend FPSA for any one who is looking for expert surgeons who deeply care about their patients."
"Excellent experience with Dr. Delaney. Very caring and patient-focused. Wonderful supporting staff as well. Highly recommend."
"Dr. Delaney is an absolute magician! I underwent a buccal fat removal procedure with him and I am thrilled with the results. This relatively minor procedure had significant results. Absolutely pain free, too! Dr. Delaney is an exceptional doctor, very skilled in all aspects of facial improvements. I highly recommend him for anyone considering this or any other procedure."
"Amazing experience with Dr Delaney with my nose job !! My nose before and after is so incredible to see ! Would definitely recommended for anyone wanting to get their nose done !"
"Flawless experience. I researched and searched for the right facial plastic surgeon for my daughter for 2 years before making the decision to consult with Dr. Sean Delaney. I cannot explain how happy and beyond satisfied I am with Dr. Delaney and his wonderful team. Dr. Delaney performed a very thorough initial consultation and inspected my daughter’s nasal passages. He had a lot of detailed information about what needed to be done and what he could realistically do to help her breathe better and aesthetically look better. He under promised the outcome and overdelivered her final result. Dr. Delaney has experience, skill and technique, is a true artist and perfectionist, which has ultimately given my daughter the boost of confidence she needed to look and feel her best! Thank you, Dr. Delaney and your amazing team from the bottom of my heart, you are truly TOP KNOTCH!"
"I am thrilled with my new face! I look just like myself only better. Dr. Kridel and his team couldn't have done a better job; they are not only professional and exacting but warm and personable as well. I would highly recommend Dr. Russell Kridel and his staff; you won't go wrong. Missy C."
"Dr. Delaney and his staff are very professional, kind and compassionate. I had a full face lift a year ago and Dr. Delaney has provided service to me the entire year. I am very pleased with the results!"
"Best of the best, highly recommend"
"Very welcoming and friendly environment. Always felt very cared for and treated with respect. Dr Delaney did an amazing job and has always been supportive of my best interest since my consultation about a year ago. 10/10 experience."
"Loved my whole experience! I wanted a change but something minor that would suit me and I love my results genuinely can not recommend this office enough"
"Dr. Delaney is amazing; I highly recommend him for any type of procedure! I love the results of mine. Recovery was smooth and he addressed any of my concerns/questions throughout. Also, his bedside manner is the best!"
"I had a chin augmentation and neck lipo done by Dr. Delaney and I am BEYOND impressed with my results. The attention to detail and care that Dr. D and his staff puts into every single patient is so commendable, and I couldn’t recommend going to him enough if you’re looking to get work done. Every single person on his team has a big heart and they truly care about you and will ease any of your concerns about anything. From consultation to post-op…I’ve experienced nothing but kindness, comfort and expertise. Once again, I can’t recommend him enough!!!"
"Dr. Delaney performed my otoplasty surgery and I’m so happy and thankful for my results! From my first consultation visit, Dr. Delany and his staff were very welcoming – I immediately felt comfortable and trusted his expertise and recommendation to book my surgery. Going into the surgery I was a bit nervous, but Dr. Delaney and his team made sure I was in good hands and put me at ease. He’s genuinely kind, friendly, professional and takes the time to explain the process and addresses any of my concerns. If you’re looking to have any facial procedures done, I highly recommend you check out the wonderful Dr. Delaney!"
"Very pleased with the result from my facelift. Dr Kridel and his staff are wonderful, very professional and attentive from start to finish. They deserve 10 stars!"
"I chose Dr. Delaney to address my concerns regarding facial asymmetry. He has such a sense of quiet confidence, and I immediately trusted him. He was able to perform multiple facial and neck procedures all on the same day. He is talented, detail oriented, genuinely kind and caring. His bedside manner is calm, warm and welcoming. He treats you as if you are his only patient. He listens to your concerns and delivers the best possible surgical outcome. The office staff are all amazing and always willing to help. Dr. Delaney and his staff promptly answer all Emails and phone calls. I highly recommend Dr. Delaney for any facial procedures."
"I highly recommend Dr. Delaney. I saw him for the first time for under eye filler and he not only did amazing work he is patient and explains everything very well. Dr. Kridel has a great reputation and I am certain Dr. Delaney, who is a bit newer to the practice, will follow in his footsteps as a one of the top Docs in Houston. I have a consultation with Dr. Delaney coming up in January for a surgical procedure, so needless to say I have the highest level of trust in him."
"I first saw beautiful botox and filler results on a friend who was treated by Dr. Delaney. I was intrigued by his flawless, conservative approach. He patiently answered all of my questions and put me at ease about getting filler and botox. I trust Dr. Delaney’s skill, knowledge and intentions, and that is crucial when it comes to finding a great doctor. I highly recommend."
"(Translated by Google) I am very happy with the results of my surgery, 4 weeks ago I had a rhinoplasty and despite the swelling it looks really natural as if I have never had such a surgery. Dr. Delaney also started a treatment to improve the appearance of a scar on my face that I had had since I was a child. Every day the results are becoming invisible. I am very happy with these results. You have no idea how much these changes helped improve my self-esteem. Without a doubt Dr. Delaney is the best plastic surgeon, he is very kind, meticulous and above all very professional. I am grateful to Dr. and to the staff that works with him, they are very helpful, they helped me a lot with the language! happy with my results!🙂Highly recommended!👍 (Original) Estoy muy felíz con los resultados de mi cirugía, hace 4 semanas tuve una rinoplastía y apesar del inchazón se me ve realmente muy natural como si nunca he tenido tal cirugía. También Dr. Delaney inició un tratamiento para mejorar la apariencia de una cicatriz en la cara que lo tuve desde niña, cada día los resultados se van viendo invisibles, me siento muy contenta con dichos resultados. Ustedes no tienen idea cómo éstos cambios ayudaron mucho a mejorar mi autoestima. Sin duda Dr. Delaney es el mejor cirujano plástico, es muy amable, meticuloso y sobre todo muy profesional. Estoy agradecida con el Dr. y con el personal que labora con él, son muy serviciales me ayudaron mucho con el idioma! contenta con mis resultados!🙂Altamente recomendado!👍"

"Dr Delaney is fantastic and very skilled. I've had 4 other plastic surgeons do botox on my face and I am by far the most satisfied with Dr Delaney's work. I look natural, my eyelids don't look heavy and the lines I wanted gone are now gone. I am going back to him in the future if I need anything further."
"I’m very happy with the result of my Botox and fillers treatments by Dr. Delaney. Dr. Delaney is very patient and attentive. I have had Botox done in various places and Dr. Delaney is the only one called the day after to check on me. I’m planning to have some laser treatments in the near future and even a face lift by Dr. Delaney when the time comes."
"I've gotten botox from Dr. Delaney a couple times and always had a really good experience. He's really nice and patient, takes the time to explain the process, what to expect, after care, etc. (I'd never gotten botox before). For the botox itself, my face still looked natural afterwards, which was something I was a bit worried about beforehand but Dr. Delaney did a great job. I definitely feel like I'm in good hands whenever I go see him and will definitely be returning."
"The best plastic surgeon/doctor. Dr. Delaney is a friendly, professional, and a highly-skilled doctor that handles every individual with patience and expertise. It is evident that he has the best eye for intricate details and is an expert with the aesthetics of the face."
"I had a Rhinoplasty done in 2016 and I still love my results! Dr. Kridel is the best!"
"I am about 6 weeks out from a grade 4 rhinoplasty revision and septaplasty surgery with Dr. Kridel. I did EXTENSIVE research before I chose my doctor. I was even willing to travel out of state if necessary. I wanted to choose the best, most capable, and skilled doctor, and I did. Dr. Kridel is still the BEST!I had my first septaplasty and rhinoplasty surgery almost 30 years ago and it was a horrific ordeal that left me feeling like I had PTSD for many years. My nose was never the same and eventually the tip started curving to the right and I could not breathe through my nose. I was too scared to go through the experience again, and I was afraid that I'd spend all the money and end up with similar results. Medicine has come a long way, in the past 30 years, and sometimes you get what you pay for in life. Dr. Kridel was not the cheapest, but I am confident that he is indeed the BEST possible option for me. I needed nine grafts to rebuild my nose, and my surgery was over 6 hours long. I woke up after surgery with minimal swelling; whereas, in my previous surgery I woke up with my eyes swollen shut and all bruised up. I never took a pain pill, as it was not needed. I did take Tylenol a few times. Bruising and swelling lasted a couple of days and then subsided. I've been waiting to review Dr. Kridel until I could fully determine the success of my surgery, and I'm super grateful to report to you that I can see that my nose will hold it's shape. I'm able to breathe and my nostrils are now symmetrical. There is no question that Dr. Kridel gave me his best work, and I'm so grateful!I've read reviews that claim that Dr. Kridel needs to move on, as he's getting older, but this is EXTREMELY false. Dr. Kridel is still very passionate about his craft and about teaching and helping others. He is still on the cutting edge of medicine in his field. He helps write text-books on these procedures, so he's clearly still extremely knowledgeable. On the day of surgery, you could tell that he was eager to help me and excited to do the surgery. There was nothing bored, checked-out, or overworked about him. I recommend that you do your research and interview a few doctors. You will see that Dr. Kridel and the two doctors that work with him are top-notch. I have met all three of them, and you cannot go wrong with their bedside manner, knowledge and expertise. This is the place you want to go for sure! I have seen Dr Caceres many times post-surgery, and he was always patient with me, kind, and caring. I was terrified to have my stitches and packing out, but he helped me get through it without any tears! Dr. Caceres truly cares about his patients and that goes a long way!Let me also point out that very few doctors do both procedures: plastic surgery (rhinoplasty) and ENT work (septaplasty). When it comes to the look and function of your nose, you want someone highly skilled at both."
"Dr.Kridel and his staff are the most amazing team out there. He performed my rhinoplasty and took care of each one of my concerns. As a senior in high school, I had no confidence when it came to my nose but after the surgery I look amazing and I’m actually more outgoing. I truly recommend him and his work. He is a very genuine person and cares for every patient. Honestly the best surgeon in Houston."
"Dr. Kridel and his staff are amazing. They answered all of my questions both before and after my surgery. I love my results and would recommend Dr. Kridel to anyone looking for Rhinoplasty surgery"
"I had a perforated septal perforation from a previous sinus surgery. My symptoms kept getting worse, so I wanted to see if anything could be done to repair the hole. I was referred to Dr. Kridel by my ENT doctor who said he was a specialist in this type of surgery. There is no question in my mind that I made the right decision to have Dr. Kridel do the surgery. My perforation is gone, my symptoms are gone and my life is back. The attention to detail and the level of care I received was beyond my expectations. Highly recommend."
" Dr. Kridel did a face/neck (F/N) revision originally done by another acclaimed Houston MD, I will call Dr. X?. When Dr. X did my F/N surgery, he exchanged breast implants that were placed 30 yrs earlier after a large weight loss. This 1-stop shopping approach to plastic surgery doesn?t work! Dr. X improved my F/N, but residual loose neck skin & a somewhat tired look remained; he also did not remove built up breast scar tissue with the implant exchange. My new? breasts were dysmorphic & tender. So I went to Dr. John Lomonaco, who specializes in breast and bariatric procedures, & he removed the breast scar tissue, gave me an AWESOME lower body lift & highly recommended Dr. Kridel for my residual F/N issues. Dr. X offered to fix my F/N at the cost of the OR, but I chose Dr. Kridel. The cost of another face/neck surgery with Dr. Kridel was worth it! My face is now more natural and less tired appearing. I also LOVE the lack of loose neck skin!
I find it interesting that Dr. Kridel established and oversees The Face Foundation?, a charitable organization which helps financially?strapped victims of domestic violence undergo facial procedures, that otherwise would not be available to them. I think it is a telling testament to the level of his skillset, his integrity and his own emotional centeredness. Probably many of those battered and broken individuals are problematic and complex cases, some maybe permanently limited from ever achieving cosmetic perfection. I would imagine a few surgeons, even if paid, would chose to opt out rather than have their work displayed for possible judgment. Nonetheless, Dr. Kridel proceeds; perhaps with the goal of relieving pain, or rebuilding function, maybe restoring dignity and/or offering hope for a brighter tomorrow - nonetheless, he proceeds. Now that?s the physician I want doing my facial surgery!"
"My best friend and I wanted for years to have surgery done until one day we decided to go see Dr. Kridel. We had seen a few of his patients (one was my sister) and new that if we were going to do it, it had to be with him. We had surgery 5 months ago and we both love the results! I had face and eye surgery and can't tell you how happy I am. I just look refreshed without that "she had plastic surgery look". The recovery time was short and painless. He takes some much care of his patients along with his staff. Words cannot describe what a wonderful experience it was with Dr. Kridel. This is an important disicion that we take. Don't hesitate, Dr. Kridel is the best doctor there is!!"
"I had chin liposuction with Dr. Kridel, and my results are phenomenal! I look natural but there is a huge difference. But not only am I pleased with the results, I also really enjoyed being a patient of Dr. Kridel and his staff. They were always professional, kind, and caring. I highly recommend Dr. Kridel and Associates. If you are thinking of having facial plastic surgery, he is definitely one of the top plastic surgeons in Houston."
"It took me years to take the plunge. But, I did. I had a facelift and eyelid surgery with Dr. Kridel and I am just thrilled with the results. I attended a wedding and all of my friends asked what I had done because I looked 15 years younger. The recovery was much faster than I thought it would be, very little bruising. I couldn't be happier."
