"Wonderful doctor - cannot adequately express how grateful I am - I cannot adequately express how grateful I am to Dr. Halka. Not only is he a skilled surgeon, he’s also kind and easy to talk to. After having two kids and losing over 80 pounds, I was left with loose, sagging skin. Dr. Halka performed an arm lift and breast lift and a couple of months later, a lower body lift and fat transfer to the breasts. I have experienced zero complications and have healed so well thanks to his care. I am thrilled with my results and plan to have him do my thigh lift in the next few months."
"Amazing LBL with MR and Fat Transfer to Buttocks - After 4 babies and a weight loss of 80lbs, finally decided it was time to get rid of some skin. Went in thinking mommy makeover. Dr Halka told me he didn’t think the tummy tuck results would make me happy and recommended the lower body lift. I was concerned about it flattening out my butt so he also suggested the fat transfer. I could not be more pleased with the results. I cried the first time I saw my new tummy. Best money I’ve ever spent. Totally worth it!! He has been wonderful through the entire process. As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway."
"A Whole New Me! - What a life-changing experience with Dr. Halka! As a 45-year-old woman, wife, and mother, I finally realized that taking care of myself IS taking care of my family. I decided to put myself and my health first for a change and set a goal to lose the excess weight I've been carrying around my entire life. With bariatric surgery, a complete lifestyle change to a low-carb diet, and 4-6 intense 5 am workouts weekly, I lost 110 pounds and have maintained the loss for two and a half years. This was ah-mazing! However, after two years of hard work and dedication, my body was still a saggy, floppy mess even after the incredible weight loss. I decided to go for a Mommy Makeover consultation at Hedden & Gunn Plastic Surgery after following them on Instagram for about a year. I met with Dr. Halka, who was very thorough and took his time explaining everything, answering all of my questions, and addressing all of my concerns. I went on two other consultations in Huntsville, AL, and Chattanooga, TN as those locations are closer to my home, but ultimately, I chose Dr. Halka's plan for the procedure and recovery because it was the best. We decided on a 360 body lift with muscle repair and lipo, breast augmentation with 500 cc Mentor silicone implants placed above the muscle, and fat transfer to the buttocks. The procedure went smoothly with no complications, and I followed the post-op instructions to the letter. Now, 12 weeks post-op, I am incredibly happy with my results. Dr. Halka didn't just perform a Mommy Makeover, he created a whole new version of me. I'm in the best shape of my life and finally, at 47 years of age, I feel confident, beautiful, and comfortable in my skin. I'm incredibly grateful for Dr. Halka's kindness, talent, and expertise. I can't imagine having a better experience."
"Dr. Halka and his team exhibited a high level of expertise and professionalism. We could not be more satisfied as to how he and his team were thorough throughout our experience; from pre-operative consultation through post operative care. The outcome of the surgical details not only met, but exceeded our expectations thus far. The outcome of this extensive surgery has been flawless so far and is expected to continue for a full and complete recovery. We would highly recommend Dr. Halka and his team and are confident you will be highly satisfied as we have been through this process. Note: we traveled 200 miles in order to be under this team’s care. Edited to say: I had a lower body lift with fat transfer to the buttocks."
