Reviews

"I've been a patient of Dr Summer Blacks for about 4 years and I would never go anywhere else. I am ALWAYS ecstatic with her work and have had Botox and Restylane filler in my cheeks and lips. Dr Black is not only a total perfectionist but she becomes a friend you feel comfortable confiding in and sharing your life with. I would recommend Dr Black to my own mother....and in fact I did! Now we are both her patients who regularly visit her for all our anti-aging facial perfecting cosmetic work."

"Dr. E. Black did my mini tummy tuck about 20 yrs ago. I’m a woman of color! My tuck still looks amazing! At the time I had 2 kids and despite what I told Summer, I went on to have 3 more. All 5 kids via c- section! I had spoken to her a few yrs back and sent her pics of my stomach and she couldn’t believe how amazing her work still looked after all these yrs and 3 c-section later. Her professionalism & bedside manner is out of this world. She made me feel so comfortable while explaining realist expectations. She is extremely honest while giving sharing professional advice. Dr. Black will not talk you into having unnecessary procedures just to make money. Instead she is all about great results that are suitable for your Individual body. I remember wanting breast implants & liposuction in my thighs. After careful assessment of my body/chest, Summer gave me her honest opinion and I didn’t move forward with it. If you are on the fence, don’t look any further, don’t read another review! Instead call her office and book your consultation asap!!!! Thank me later❤️"
