I am a 50 year old plastic surgeon in Louisiana who chose to have my face rejuvenated by Dr. Tim Marten. Dr. Marten is solely focused on facial and neck rejuvenation, and I appreciate that. I know how important it is to have your first surgery done correctly and well. He takes facial anatomy and beauty to a new level and sincerely wants to perform the best surgery possible for every single patient. Dr. Marten is a Surgeon Artist. I am now 2 months out from surgery and can not properly express my gratitude for his expertise. The hallmark of great facial plastic surgery is that you still look like yourself - just a more youthful version. That is what he did for me. Helen, his nurse, is wonderful and thorough. The staff made sure that I had all of my medications and needs met. I had the most beautiful flower arrangement in my hotel upon arrival. Dr. Stephen King, his anesthesiologist, was great and I had no post operative nausea. I did not receive any special treatment because I am a colleague. I actually referred a difficult revision patient in December of 2018 and she received the exact same treatment with outstanding results. I knew I wanted a surgeon who looks at every person as a family member and will go to every length to give them their very best.

65 year old female orthodontist, Texas—I have been meaning to write this review as I am 10 mos. out of a face/neck lift. What brought me to the Marten Clinic of Plastic Surgery was daily seeing photos of myself with my patients posted on the “Wall of Smiles”—“braces-off” bulletin board in my office. I was slowly able to see the effects of aging in my face and neck with the progression of photographs, to the point that I began to dread facing the camera. Then I suddenly I remembered the piece of paper I had with Dr. Marten’s name/phone number. Twenty years ago a plastic surgeon friend who practiced in Oklahoma City while I was doing my residency there had given it to me and told me to keep it in case I ever wanted to have my face “done”. Dr. Marten had done an amazing job on this plastic surgeon’s face. The OKC plastic surgeon highly recommended his fastidious technique and the use of fat cells—and told me that Dr. Marten had many “doctors" for his patients. I immediately called, made an appointment for a consultation and booked a flight. Dr. Marten far exceeded my expectations with the enormous improvement to my face and neck. He is indeed an artist and perfectionist in the world of plastic surgery. Not a day goes by in my orthodontic practice that a new patient—usually an adult new patient—doesn’t stare at me and finally compliment me on “how beautiful I am”. At first, I didn’t handle the compliments very well and was at a loss of words. However, now I have trained myself to smile and say, “Thank you.” What a life changing experience!!! I never anticipated Dr. Marten’s surgery would have such a positive impact on my life and how people perceive me. Another important factor, related to my medical history, was to prevent the “cycle nausea” that I usually have after a general anesthesia is administered. Dr. Stephen King, the anesthesiologist for Dr. Marten, spent an hour consultation—long distance over the phone—to brainstorm and analyze how to prevent this from happening. I came through the surgery and recovery period WITHOUT any nausea/vomiting whatsoever. It was like a miracle!! I attribute that success to careful planning of both Dr. King and Dr. Marten. The “dream team” as I refer to Dr. Marten’s staff makes the entire experience appear effortless and smooth. Every day when I look in the mirror and see my beautiful face, I thank God that I kept that “piece of worn out” paper for 20 years and followed through with my plan to go to Dr. Marten. It’s fun being this beautiful!!!

He is the best surgeon in facial rejuvenation in the whole world. Me, as a plastic surgeon, chose him among everyone and I travel to San Francisco every time I need something done to my face. He is simply THE BEST. His results are unparalleled and I have never seen results such as his in years and years I have been assisting to conferences all around the world.

This man did a surgery without consent on me. He also did several procedures on purpose that makes my face age faster. His surgical actions would be unacceptable for someone with 5 years of experience. This guy teaches and has over 30 years of experience. Once I noticed the defects that are getting worse every day, his way of dealing with the situation was to lie and ignore or refer me some retired ps who I could ask second opinion from. He did not care that he destroyed my quality of life. Breathing is a basic human need even in elevated position when trying to sleep. I asked for 2 things that would not be as invasive as he usually does, since I did not need it. Before consulting him I send him questions with photo illustration about what I wanted to have done. He confirmed through his assistant that it was possible. The picture showed upper cheek lax skin elimination and a tiny lift + I described brow lift that would not change brow shape, but would lift them up tiny bit and eliminate lax skin from forehead. What I wanted never changed, even this guy tried to sell me a neck lift etc. I wanted to be safe, thus I only asked to fix what became broken before its time. Marten promised he could help, however he did much more and the quality of my life has lowered tremendously. He did many things without my consent: drilled my upper nose bone to very narrow, took my lateral neck, face, lip and eye fats away, burred forehead and cheekbones flat and did something to my jaw... He did several things that did not rejuvenate me but made me look more unattractive, gaunt and manly. When I try to ask him permission to talk to the people working in OR on 18 July 2016, he does not let me speak to them. (Guilty do that!) He has something to hide. My surgery took 6 hours 15 minutes for the 2 things I asked for and some other lady who had the same things done + 5 things more took only 7 hours. Something does not add up here. I feel Marten somehow had this unconditional hate towards me and he decided to ruin my life with all of these weird things he did. Not only my face is violated, but my NIPPLES and BOTTOM area etc.! I wish to write this online that people can make very informed choices. I never ever thought he could do this to me. I thought he was one of the top and caring professional in the world. Based on that and the official outcomes I chose him. But I should have run away from the place in the morning of the surgery, or even month before when he cut the consultation very short even I had travelled over 15 hours from Europe to see him and hear how my surgery would go and he did not tell about that. I paid for the procedure what I wanted a month before when everything was agreed only to come to the place on my surgery date 18 July 2016 and this man was still trying to sell me new things that would not suit me at all. 10 minutes before I was under he was suggesting me hairline lowering. I always looked at the hairline lowering that they were bad looking and here this guy suggested me one. I was so scared and even more scared when Marten mimiced overly aggressive wind tunnel side pull on his face. He mimiced me, but I had not pulled my face to side, I had lifted it up slightly. His mimicing was full of passive-aggressive hate. I was nervous and that made me even more nervous and I only hoped for the best. He de-fattened and flattened my face and made my eyes bulbous. I wish I had walked away. He did a very wrongful actions against me. I hope everyone considering any sort of plastic surgery good luck. It is a big decision. Do not let anyone sell you extra things. Less is more and when less is done things can be fixed later too. If I could I'd give Marten 0 stars and because what he did against my will I would also take his licence away. In his position he should be very respectful and humble, but he is not. My experience is that he is evil and arrogant and though I was free piece of meat for him to experiment on even I paid him more than 22K. BEWARE, BE SAFE!
