Midwest Facial Plastic Surgery & FACE Cosmetic Skincare

Dr. Bakeman is absolutely fantastic. She's both knowledgeable and kind, and very skilled. She was able to do a revision facelift for me after another plastic surgeon failed to correct something that went wrong during that facelift, and the result was nothing short of spectacular. Not all surgeons will do revisions and not all revisions turn out well. She will, mine did, and she's the surgeon I'd recommend to anyone contemplating facial plastic surgery. She's wonderful.

I had a septo rhino with Dr. Bakeman and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Nose surgery is something I’ve wanted for as long as I can remember but struggled to find the right surgeon. I started researching again this year and found Dr. Bakeman. She had everything: dual-board certificated, a practice dedicated to facial plastics/ENT, a beautiful patient portfolio, and located within a reasonable distance. At our consult, I knew pretty much immediately she was the right surgeon. She is warm and personable, diligent, SO INTELLIGENT but can explain complex things in a way that makes sense and overall she made me feel understood. I had the best experience start to finish, and my only regret is not doing it sooner. Dr. Bakeman is the best there is- she listened to all of my concerns, goals, preferences, inspiration photos, and she gave me a result better than I could have ever imagined. It’s beautiful but natural and perfectly fits my face. It feels like the nose I was always meant to have. Moreover, I had a number of sinus/function issues that she corrected- I still can’t believe how well I can breathe. I never thought in this life I’d like my nose, let alone love it. I feel so confident! And as I write this, I’m only 7 weeks post surgery… Overall, I could not be happier with my results and that I trusted Dr. Bakeman and MWFP with my care. Choosing a surgeon who will be changing something on your face is one of the most important decisions you’ll make. As someone who’s been critical of noses my whole life (product of my own insecurity- if you know you know), she’s exceptional and we’re so lucky to have an expert like her in the Midwest. I would do it 100 times over. If traveling is a concern - they couldn’t have been more accommodating (offering virtual and in person appts). As for surgery, the travel back and forth was completely manageable (7 hour drive from where I live). The little extra effort is 100% worth it to have the right surgeon & team behind you. Longest review ever but I hope it finds the right audience!! If you’ve been thinking about nose surgery and waiting for a sign, this may be it.

I honestly don’t know where to start with how wonderful my experience with Dr. Bakeman was. She expertly performed 7 different plastic surgeries on my face and neck and I’m very happy with all of them. We did the surgeries in two rounds, about 3 months apart from each other. She is so kind and caring and really took the time to understand exactly how I wanted each feature and set good expectations if something I wanted wasn’t realistic. Everyone in my life is blown away by how transformative, polished, and seamless her work is and people are constantly asking me for her information after seeing me. Her entire team has been very helpful and caring as well. I just can’t imagine my experience being any better. If you’re looking for the best face Dr in town, congratulations, you found her! The following is all of the procedures I had done: 1. Chin bone reduction, 2. Jaw bone reduction, 3. Nose job, 4. Fat grafting to upper cheeks and temples, 5. Endoscopic Brow Lift, 6. Upper lip lift, 7. Trachea reduction.

I had an amazing experience with Dr. Garrett Griffin for a rhinoplasty revision surgery. From the very beginning, the entire process was incredibly straightforward and stress-free. Dr. Griffin is super nice and made me feel comfortable with the plan every step of the way. The staff at the surgery center was also amazing—attentive, kind, and professional. Revision surgery can be daunting, but I had a wonderful experience overall. I would highly recommend Dr. Griffin to anyone looking for a revision specialist!
