Dr. O’Brien performed a brow lift, lower face and neck lift, upper and lower blepharoplasty, fat grafting, and abdominal liposuction. Six weeks later I am very pleased and looking great! Dr. O’Brien explains procedures well and demonstrates a caring attitude towards his patients. I would use Dr. O’Brien again and highly recommend him. The office staff exhibits the same caring and concern for the patients. More
Excellent Consultation and Execution. - Very happy with the results of my face-lift. I can't imagine a better experience! Dr. O'Brian and his staff were excellent beyond any expectations I could have thought possible. They were always on time (even when I wasn't), and friendly, courtesy and professional. Thank you Dr. O'Brian and staff!As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway. More
John O'Brien, MD is nothing short of an artist! At 70 years old, he has given me an entirely new lease on life with my "facial rejuvenation ". I could not be happier and am delighted to give Dr O'Brien and his staff a 5-star rating! As a Nurse Practitioner locally for years, I had heard of Dr O'Brien's expertise. I consider myself fortunate to have been his patient. I cannot recommend this office more! More

Exceeds Expectations - facelift, lower blepharoplasty, neck lift and laser treatment - Dr. O,Brien is an outstanding surgeon. He is professional, patient and explains everything. I had a facelift, lower blepharoplasty, neck lift and laser treatment. The outcome was exactly what I wanted. The pre and post operative periods were private and personalized since he has his own surgical suite on-site. All office associates always put the patient first. Anna, a most caring RN, and Dana, Esthetician, were at my side as needed throughout the process. I highly recommend Dr. O’Brien and his excellent team. More
Phenomenal - I got the whole kit and caboodle . Totally worth it! Had a complication blood clot after tubing was removed but the team took very good care of me. Literally had me coming into the office every day until clot was in healing mode. I had it done around Christmas time and have to say they treated me like family. I would definitely recommend and will be returning for more. More
Thank you for updating my old body and making me feel pretty!! More
Dr. OBrien and his staff are the best. Dr. OBien was confident and knowledgeable during my consultation which put me at ease. I had a facelift, upper and lower eyelids, fat grafting and laser resurfacing. I was apprehensive because it was my face. My husband was also concerned I would not look the same. All fears have been put to rest. I am five months out from the procedures and am very happy with the results. I've been seeing Dana for facials and love them. I will not go anywhere else. If you are looking for a doc who listens to you and treats you with dignity and compassion, than Dr. OBrien is your man. More

I am no stranger to plastic surgery, and have had several procedures done on my body over many years, both invasive and non-invasive (breast reduction, augmentation, liposuction, botox, coolsculpting, etc.), but I was afraid to do anything to my face. I'd had an accident in my 20s that left one eyebrow much lower than the other, and my eyelids both looked heavy, prompting people to ask me all the time if I was tired. I started looking into what I could do to improve the tired appearance and level out my eyebrows in November 2018. I met with Dr. O'Brien as part of that, and he made several suggestions about what I could do, such as a brow lift and upper blepharoplasty, but he also did not pressure me to do anything. In addition, I asked about ultherapy, another non-invasive treatment. Dr. O explained that I was not a candidate for the treatment because I have a pacemaker, and he would not even consider it (which I respect and appreciate). So I stuck with Botox for the time. I did look into a few other local surgeons in St. Pete. I was frustrated that their websites lacked information about the most modern ways to perform the procedures, and when I tried to reach out to some of them, I either could not get through, didn't get a response, or if I did get a response, it was like I was an inconvenience. It was no question that I was going back to talk to Dr. O'Brien. My husband had been very against my doing anything to my face, and when I told him I was considering the brow lift and blepharoplasty suggested by Dr. O'Brien, he agreed to at least come with me to the 2nd consult (mostly to try to talk me out of it). Once we got there, Dr. O explained the entire process to both of us, and answered all the questions my husband had. One of our concerns was that I would look overdone or have that "duck face" look. Dr O'Brien explained how I would really look like myself, just more awake with better symmetry, and that is exactly what happened. I had a brow lift and upper blepharoplasty in his beautiful and comfortable surgical center in St Pete. I had laser resurfacing at the same time, and my skin looks beautiful. The follow-up care with Dr. O'Brien and his staff was spectacular. They are all so friendly and welcoming, and the entire staff works together to make sure I can maintain my results. I strongly recommend Dr. O'Brien to anyone who is considering a plastic surgery procedure. More
Excellent visit-able to offer me service that I have been looking for. Looking forward to my procedure. Dr. O'Brien very knowledgeable and answers all questions. Thank you. More
Dr. O'Brien is, in a word... "fantastic"! He has done a facelift for me as well as a breast reconstruction. I couldn't be more pleased. His talent combined with his attentive and caring staff makes for an exceptional experience. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you! More
Best Plastic Surgeon in St.Petersburg - My fiance and I decided to give each other plastic surgery for Christmas instead of a trip this year. My fiance, who is extremely picky, is also a physician and already knew of Dr. O'Brien's quality of work. He had decided that he wanted to get a partial face lift. I had been to Dr. O'Brien before and had good results, so I decided to get breast augmentation. Dr. O'Brien was very accommodating on scheduling around our busy schedules and the holidays. We had our surgeries about a month apart, and are both healing well. I have heard many people say that the best Plastic Surgeons in the bay area can only be found in Tampa, or even further away... Miami. This is so NOT true, and the prices here are way more competitive than in those areas. If a physician (who has professional knowledge of others in this business) would choose this physician to work on himself, it says a LOT! It is sometimes difficult to find a doctor that you like as well as the office staff. EVERYONE at this office...from surgery coordinator (Kristen), post-surgical (Katie), as well as his entire office and OR staff... was friendly, caring, punctual, and professional. They all clearly love their jobs... and their boss. We are both very happy with our results! More
Going for a More Refreshed Appearance: Facelift, Necklift, Browlift, and Dermabrasion - Dr. O’Brien is an excellent plastic surgeon. I met with him several times throughout the year before deciding on my surgery and found him to be very professional and passionate about his work. He is also quite realistic about what will and will not work for you. The surgical center and their staff are top notch. They were always available to address any concerns I may have had and were very caring on the pre and post op visits. I would highly recommend Dr. O’Brien and his staff to anyone considering plastic surgery. More
Had a face lift and am very pleased with my results. The surgery and recovery was painless and a week after my surgery I was out in social settings and it was so much easier than I could imagine. More

I had a great experience with Dr. O'Brien and his team! Highly recommended! - I went to Dr. O'Brien with apprehension over having plastic surgery of any kind. I knew from my primary care physician that I needed a blepharoplasty. After consulting with Dr. O'Brien, I felt at ease and much better informed. I decided on a brow lift and mini-face lift along with the blepharoplasty. One year later and I am constantly being told how young I look. The result is very natural... More
Sagging Face and Spirits to Go with It - Saint Petersburg, FL - After having a lower facelift by a different doctor with none of the result I was promised, I went to Dr. O'Brien to see if fillers could be used to improve the 'parentheses' that still framed my mouth. Dr. O'Brien gave me all the options, and I decided to start with Radiesse for the nasolabial folds. Filling in this area has definitely helped distract from the sag in my lower face. I will still need other fillers, but at least now I don't look at myself and cry in disappointment. Now I just cry because I didn't go to Dr. O'Brien in the first place!! More
Treated Myself - I could not be more satisfied with the results of my procedure. I feel like I have regained my youth! I get compliments on a daily basis about how great I look. Dr O'Brien and his staff went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable from the start. It was the best decision I could have made to choose him. More

Facelift, Chemical Peel and Eyelid Surgery - St. Petersburg, FL - I'm a healthy 62 year old woman and feel young and vital. But my face, neck and eyes looked old! I have fair skin and have always been an outdoor person, so the sun had done a lot of damage, besides the normal sagging with time. I am so glad I did this and do not regret it in the least. It was a little rough the first couple weeks, but I had my wonderful husband to help. Dr. O'Brien and everyone I came into contact with at the office were wonderful in every way. They prepared me well and there were many follow up visits which were reassuring. I am very happy with the result and it was done so well not many people know I had more than some eye surgery. So if you can afford it and want a new lease on life - go for it!! More
