Hilger Face Center Patient Testimonials | Facial Plastic Surgery in Minneapolis & Edina, MN

I would like to recognize both Dr. Van Beck and her RN nurse, Samantha. They were exceptional, very, very good at explaining everything, very interested in hearing what I had to say. I felt very important. I felt very heard. I felt very seen. I felt very cared for at the surgical center. I felt very cared for at the office, both pre-surgical and post-surgical. I'm just extremely happy with my overall experience and I've had people ask about possible rhinoplasty and I would definitely recommend this team to them. Thank you for everything.

Everything was an excellent experience and Dr. Mella was incredible. He interacted with my teenage daughter perfectly and was a great listener. Then he also explained everything in great detail and what the process would be and why.

The medical professionals at the Hilger Face Center are always wonderful to work with. I saw great results with Dr. Lyford-Pike using lower impact, cost conscious techniques and now seeing Dr. Van Beck consistently has given me complete confidence in anyone I may see here in the future.

Dr. Van Beck and her nurse Sam did a wonderful job as always. This was my first time seeing Dr. Van Beck for nose and chin filler after transferring from Dr. Lyford Pike. The nose is a higher risk area and Dr. Van Beck handled it with care and precision. I'm very detail oriented and typically like to give feedback or request adjustments, but her filler placement was absolutely perfect where I didn't feel the need to change a thing.

Dr. Lyford-Pike is exceptionally wonderful because she listened to every word I said. She helped me see other perspectives that helped me a lot to understand my own ideas about my appearance, and I really feel reassured and very confident with her care. She's extremely professional and caring at the same time, and I just really, really, really appreciate it. Seeing her has honestly changed my life and my self-esteem for the better, and I just am very grateful and thankful that I found her.

Everything went very well. I was very pleased. I was greeted by the receptionist very warmly, and then the nurse, Sam, was very good and explained a lot to me, and then we moved on to Dr. Van Beck, and she just did a wonderful job. She sat down and laid out a plan, and I feel very comfortable with it, and we're going to move forward with that. So, very pleased so far with everything that I've experienced at Hilger Face Center. So, thank you very much, and keep up the good work.

Dr. Van Beck is awesome! When I saw my nose after the Mohs procedure, I didn't think I would ever have a normal looking nose again. She certainly met the challenge and now my nose is normal. When I see people and tell them about my adventure, they tell me they didn't even know by looking at me and it's only been half the time that she said it will take for full recovery. Dr. Van Beck is real. What I mean is that even though she is a highly skilled doctor, you can have a normal conversation with her. I am so glad that Dr. Van Beck worked on the most visible part of my face!
