Dr. Christopher Funderburk, MD

*PAH Coolscuplting revision* TT, lipo 360, MR and body contouring by the one and only Dr. Chris Funderburk. I was suffering from Paradoxical Adipose Hyperplasia (PAH), a side effect from the Coolsculpting procedure I had done years ago, just before my life began to change. Coolsculpting is a non-invasive body contouring treatment that most men and women choose because of the astounding final results. Long story short, I would need to have reconstructive surgery to remove the PAH. After extensive research and countless hours trying to find a surgeon who not only excelled in reconstructive surgery but was also knowledgable about PAH and its effects on your body and mind. Dr. Chris and the Neinstein Plastic Surgery team was hands down my best option. From the minute I talked to Dr. Chris I began to reclaim my life, I felt alive again. From our first conversation, I was confident that he was going to pull through for me. I felt like I knew him my whole life, and I was certain that God gave me a sense of relief and for the first time in a long time, I felt safe again. Dr. Chris reassured me that he could help me live again, and remove the PAH from my body. He gave me the HOPE I had been looking for and the FAITH I needed to trust him. I spent almost five years living with PAH, and with each passing day it was taking over more and more of my body. Dr. Chris gave me the confidence that he could not only give me my life back, but it was going to be better than before. I was lucky that I was able to find a surgeon who I could trust and who knew what I was experiencing and how to fix it. If you are one of those people who are afraid, or are just finding it hard to trust anyone, I assure you, Dr. Chris is your guy. He possesses the knowledge, the skill, the understanding and the confidence to help you feel like yourself again. He is there for you before the surgery, works his magic during the surgery and he is still there for you after the surgery. He helps you understand the changes that are going on in your body post surgery, the healing process, and the importance of patience in recovery. Dr. Chris’s timeline for my recovery has been spot on and everyday I am so thankful for finally finding someone who believed me, who gave me validation that I wasn’t crazy, unlike every other medical professional I saw in the last five years who dismissed me. I never once doubted my decision. I put my life in his hands and he helped me live again, and most of all, he gave my children back their mother. It all just felt right! I remember showing Dr. Chris photos of me before the Coolsculpting, and I asked him, “Do you think you can make me look like this again?” He replied with the upmost confidence, “I will get you looking better!” I knew right then, I was making the right decision. PAH is scary, it’s like a parasite that spreads slowly throughout your body and latches on and never lets go. You need a surgeon that knows everything there is to know about PAH, and knows how to reverse its negative effects on your body and your life. You need people who can finally answer the questions that have haunted you for so long. I can assure you that, Dr. Chris and the rest of the staff will give you just that. They each single handedly played a major role in making this experience go as smoothly as possible, and they are still doing just that. You will never feel alone again, you don’t just get a skillful surgeon, you get a family that truly cares, and that has made all the difference in the world. Dr. Chris's work is phenomenal, a true artist all the way down to the scar and even the bellybutton! He is very particular in his work and he gives anyone, no matter what procedure is, the up most confidence that we all deserve to have. He is gifted in every way possible. Dr. Chris not only helped me for my physical appearance, he also helped me mentally. The fact that Dr. Chris actually listened to my story and my concerns was very different from other doctors that I considered. Dr. Chris you saved me from myself and I will forever be grateful to him

Personal follow up= awesome. Thanks so much for having me over yesterday. I loved meeting you and your staff. The office is truly stunning and the experience was really wonderful. I am beyond grateful for the intro to Tara and that laser treatment. Today my face is flakey- like the end of the fraxel experience- except with none of the pain or multiple days of lizzard face. Thank you!

It was truly wonderful to see you and your lovely staff once again in your sunny office, which seemed more like an artist's gallery, where you magically enhance your patients with your genius, skill and latest techniques. While the environment was alluring, what was most impressive was the care and warmth exhibited by you and your stunning staff. Thank you for your consideration, interest and gift of botulinum toxin, which you so kindly offered. I sincerely appreciate your concern for my issues and look forward to following up. My gratitude to all who were so solicitous. Have a sparkling day!

Thank you so much ?? My experience with you and your team has been amazing: from the coordinators, nurses, surgical team as well as your extended team of private duty nurses . I read the reviews prior to choosing you as the ""best of the best"" for mommy makeovers but reviews cannot demonstrate the passion you have for what you do. Thank you for changing my life! Looks are not everything …but 4 children later … what you have done has made me feel like a got a piece of ME back. You are simply ""The Best"" and I thank you for making this such an incredible experience

My initial consult with Dr Chris was fantastic. I liked his warmth, friendliness and most of all his honest feedback about what I could consider doing and what is either unnecessary or might not achieve the results I’m seeking as well as recommendations for how to best achieve those results. Too many other practitioners are too willing to charge for things that might not be necessary so I greatly appreciated the honest feedback and look forward to returning shortly to address a few issues and have outlined a plan for upcoming treatments/procedures.

I could tell by how positive everyone was here that this was a wonderful place to work... and a place that values excellence. 5 stars.

Dr. Funderburk was wonderful, put me right at ease and was very kind and professional. Would recommend to anyone.

I had the most wonderful experience here. Tara made me feel so comfortable. I had, had bad previous experiences with filler and really wanted to do it again, but needed to find someone that iI was comfortable with. Tara listened to my concerns and assured me that it would look natural. She was not wrong. I am thrilled with the results. She really knows what she is doing. I will never go anywhere else. Looking forward to trying more things here! 10/10 Recommend! ??

I had a very nice experience. Everyone was friendly and nice. And the procedure wasn’t too expensive. I usually shy away from those big office on 5Ave or on Madison bc it’s usually outrageous. But I was pleasantly surprised. Tara was very nice and very helpful. I’m thinking of coming back to see you soon. Thank you.

Thanks to all the friendly and helpful staff, My 1st visit was fantastic. Everything was so professional, well organized, and most importantly, Tara’s skill is amazing! She’s done wonderful treatment and I am very happy with the result and cannot wait to see how my face will look like after full recovery. My sincere appreciation for all of you. Thank you so much again.

Nurse Tara is amazing and I am so happy with the results!

Nurse Tara is the best! She is so precise and an expert. I am so happy with what she did!

Doc! I just have to tell you I can’t thank you enough for the incredible job you did on my tummy! I have been dreaming of this surgery for years and you made my dreams come true! I am so glad I rusted you with the 360 lipo and mini tuck, it looks so natural. Your approach to the mommy makeover is what everyone needs to know about, not just a traditional tummy tuck. My stomach is so flat like it was before babies! My c sections did a number on me and you fixed it. Your staff and entire experience made me feel so special and well taken care of. I will be telling everyone about you! Thank you so much for everything. I can’t wait for summer now!!

I cant thank you enough for how amazing u treated me and all your staff. I started to hate all surgeons after a few bad experiences and now I don’t feel that way any more

So quick, wasn’t bothered with calls or text reminders to show up, check in & out was easy, office smelled amazing, loved the location, would def recommend to friends!

Excellent experience with Dr. Chris! He's the best!

LOVING my results! And the staff is so friendly.

Nurse Tara was amazing! cant wait to book more stuff with her
