I have had a great experience from working with Carly to my surgery with Dr. Polynice. Dr. Polynice is an incredible surgeon, with kindness and compassion to match. Dr. Polynice put me at ease before surgery and I went home feeling much better than I expected. Carly is a professional and always responds quickly and thoughtfully. I’m so happy I chose Dr. Polynice for my surgery.
I had my breast implants replaced 4 months ago, I'm very happy with the results. Dr. Polynice is professional and very skilled. He goes the extra mile to make sure you're happy with the results. His staff (Carly) makes the whole process positive. I would definitely recommend Dr. Polynice and his office.
I recently had an incredible experience with Dr. Polynice and his team. From start to finish, the care and attention I received were exceptional. Dr. Polynice was not only highly skilled but also remarkably attentive to my needs, making sure every step of the process was clear and comfortable for me.
The staff at the office were equally impressive. They were consistently kind, supportive, and genuinely invested in my well-being. They took the time to walk me through every aspect of my treatment, ensuring I felt informed and confident at each stage. No question was too small or too big; they were always available to provide thorough and thoughtful answers.
I am beyond thrilled with my results and deeply appreciative of the outstanding care provided by Dr. Polynice and his team.
Dr. Polynice did my breast implants this year. They look EXCELLENT! At no time did I feel pressured, everyone was very professional and gave me great advice on the size, which is perfect for my body. Very impressed by this whole office and had great help and support also from Carly. My healing was very fast and I look and feel great, as though I’ve had this size of breasts my whole life. They look completely natural - but fantastic. I will go to Dr. Polynice for any work!
Dr. Polynice is somehow Montecito’s best kept secret. I don’t know how — because he is hands down the best at sculpting, shaping and achieving a natural look. I couldn’t be happier with my new body!
His team is also supportive and super helpful and knowledgeable.
So happy I made the choice to get my 12 year old implants removed. Dr. Polynice is a very skilled surgeon with decades of experience. I especially appreciated that he has extensive experience with explant surgery. I also had a lift done at the same time. The results far exceeded my expectations and it was a decision I’m SO happy I made. The care throughout the process was fantastic. I never waited for appointments and anytime I needed anything, I got immediate responses. His assistant Carly was kind, supportive and helpful as well. Truly a 10/10 experience and I would encourage anyone who is considering explant surgery to meet Dr. Polynice.
I selected Dr. Alain Polynice due to his vast experience and esteemed reputation as a surgeon in New York. Where, his surgery schedule is fully booked months in advance, catering to a mix of regular and new patients. Dr. Polynice first worked on both coasts, splitting his time between New York and California before moving to Santa Barbara full time with his wife, Dr. Allison Pontius, a central coast native. Together they hold four board certifications in three medical specialties, and both joined Turner Medical in Montecito, California— becoming the top choice for medical aesthetics. Both are dedicated to lifelong learning. Dr. Polynice excels in listening to his patients and consistently delivers exceptional results aligned with their desired outcomes, all while prioritizing support for anti-aging objectives both on the inside and outside. There is no other choice, if perfect results are the goal.
Due to a number of different health issues I've experienced, I've seen at least a dozen doctors of various specialties over the last 4 years. My experience with Dr. Polynice and his team was by far the best. You can sense immediately that Dr. Polynice truly cares about his patients; he is empathetic, an attentive listener, and explains his recommendations in a way that makes sense to someone without a medical degree. He is also a highly skilled professional and did a great job with my explant surgery. The office is very communicative and responds quickly to questions. Dr. Polynice's surgery coordinator and aesthetic advisor, Carly is the absolute best. She is equally invested in the health and needs of patients. Working with her was like working with a best friend, she made me feel heard and at ease throughout the entire process. I had multiple consultations before choosing Turner Medical Arts and Dr. Polynice. During the consultation I knew immediately I wanted to work their office and post-surgery I couldn't me more confident that I made the right choice. If you are considering cosmetic surgery and want a doctor who you can trust to achieve your goals and whose top priority is your health, I can't recommend this office enough.
Dr. Poly is the best! Aging has really made me hate my jawline/neck. I’ve had no definition from my jawline to where my neck starts. I’ve had other surgeons tell me I would need an extensive surgery which involved going under generally anesthesia and needing my neck muscles tightened etc (I wasn’t ready for a surgery like that)…I was so grateful I met Dr. Poly. He did exactly what I was looking for with a simple office procedure under local anesthesia which included lipo under my chin and jawline with renuvion skin tightening. Carly his patient care coordinator is a gem! All was smooth sailing and I am already sooooo happy with the results. I highly recommend Dr. Poly because he gives top notch results, he really listened to what I wanted, his bedside manner is extremely professional, patient and funny! Thank you for giving me a chiseled jaw and getting rid of my turkey gobbler! #bodybypoly
I recently had a breast lift with Dr. Polynice and I am so excited about my results! I’ve always been insecure about my breasts and have wanted to get them done but didn’t feel fully ready until I met Dr. Polynice! He listened to all of my concerns and was very knowledgeable about everything, he made me feel really comfortable and confident in my decision. His assistant, Carly, was amazing as well, she was quick to respond answering any questions or concerns that I had and was very reassuring and there for me through this whole process. After the surgery, they were both so great about checking in during my recovery and I had consistent post-ops with him to make sure everything was healing right, I’m a bit of a worrier so this really eased a lot of concerns and helped make my recovery super easy and quick. My results are better than what I could have imagined, even after years of thinking about this! I can’t even explain how much more confident I feel, this surgery has been absolutely life changing! Dr. Polynice slays and is so amazing at what he does, he goes above and beyond for his patients, I couldn’t imagine having had this done anywhere else!
Everyone was very friendly and helpful in explaining the procedures and what to expect. They made me feel comfortable in knowing that I would be taken care of and in good hands. The post surgery appointments have been very helpful. At 2 months post surgery, I have resumed my exercise and bowling with no problems. This experience has been great and I love the results. Thank you for taking such great care of me!!
My experience with Dr. Polynice and his staff have been life changing to say the least. Carly is amazing and made herself readily available even thru the busy holiday season.From my initial consult to surgery and now post operatively. The support I have felt was beyond my expectations. One thing about my experience that I want to highlight, was when after my consultation, I still had some questions . He had me come back. He sat with me and gave me the time and attention I needed. He outlined a plan of care for me that felt custom and completely tailored. This was so reassuring, I knew I was in the best hands.
I am currently 4 weeks out and already so thrilled with the work that Dr. Polynice did on me. So thrilled that I have already referred friends and family to him.
I am so grateful and will continue to give him high praise!
Dr. Polynice is a really great doctor - I had a bike accident with pretty bad damage to my face and head, and he did the stitches for me. He was really kind, professional and incredible at what he does — it’s been about 2 weeks and I look and feel SO much better. Highly recommend.
Dr. Polynice did outstanding work on my lip after I had a serious accident involving facial trauma. Furthermore, his care and bedside manner have been excellent throughout my follow up visits, helping relieve much of my anxiety during this healing process.
Dr. Polynice did my upper and lower tummy tuck, arm lifting and breast implants. He is very high skilled professional! I am extremely happy with my body now. My tummy looks better then I was 18!! I love my arm’s appearance after lifting. Definitely, I was in good hands! Thank you a million, Dr!! You are the best plastic surgeon!
Dr. Polynice came very highly recommended and I had a very complex case to be evaluated and corrected. He took his time explaining what was necessary to give me the best possible outcome. I am 100% happy with the results of my surgery and cannot recommend Dr. Polynice and his amazing staff highly enough. The personal attention, genuine care, follow up and overall service has been nothing short of perfection. Thank you very much for such an experience!
I went from being very insecure to loving my body practically overnight. Choosing Dr. Polynice for my breast surgery was the best decision I've made for myself in a long time. I had multiple consultations in the Santa Barbara area, but Dr. Polynice struck me as not only a competent surgeon, but also a perfectionist, and most importantly, an artist. My gut was 100% correct because I could not be happier with my results.
His assistant, Carly, is kind, available, supportive and eager to help. I highly recommend Dr. Polynice and his amazing staff.
Do it for yourself. You won't regret it.
Dr. Polynice is an excellent, skilled surgeon. If you want to feel sexy, attractive or just yourself again he is your doctor. I had 5 abdominal surgeries in 2 years. I lost a lot of my body mass, had weak muscles and looked much older. Dr. Polynice gave me back a body that looks and feels years younger. I was so happy with how I looked, I had an arm and thigh lift done with him. I highly recommend his skills. I never thought I'd feel or look this way again. He can bring back a better quality of life.
Dr. Polynice and his assistant Carly were absolutely wonderful! I met with them last week for a consultation for implant exchange. Dr. Polynice was thorough and took the time to answer allllll of my questions. I was comfortable and felt confident after the appointment about moving forward with him as my surgeon. I am excited for my future procedure and can’t wait to see the results!
After some research I found the right Doctor. Dr. Polynice and his assistant Carly were very professional and courteous from the first consultation. I am extremely satisfied with my results and glad I chose Dr. Polynice and his team. I would recommend him to anyone. Thank you for changing my self image!
I first met with Dr, Polynice for the one on one consultation. The consult with Dr. Polynice was invaluable. I ‘d been to other consults within the Santa Barbara area just to meet other surgeons to learn about their method. I felt very comfortable with Dr. Polynice and his staff. They are amazing! It’s one of those feeling where you go with your gut. It's been about 3 months since my surgery and I am so happy with my results with my tummy tuck. I’m just thrilled. I'm so glad I chose to do it. I highly recommend Dr. Polynice to anyone looking to get a tummy tuck. He is a true artist.
Incredibly talented, kind, compassionate, and has a great office staff. After a serious riding accident my face was shattered from being stepped on by the horse as he ran off. Dr. Polynice did a great job of putting my face back together, so the oral surgeon could do his job the next morning, which was to wire the jaw shut, and stabilize multiple fractures with plates and screws. I am truly grateful for the amazing work of this trauma team. I may only be 3 weeks into to healing process but I have a normal face, better than I could have hoped for. This was no small task, so I very highly recommend, and am filled with gratitude for an amazing professional. Definitely 5 stars without hesitation.
Dr. Polynice is an incredible surgeon. I am beyond grateful! I feel like myself again. Thank you so much Dr. Polynice and Carly for taking such good care of me❤️
Dr. Polynice is awesome! Very professional, kind and knowledgeable. I would absolutely recommend him and his office. Staff is very nice and welcoming. All around great experience!
Everyone was very professional and VERY kind. After my accident I was sure I would never look the same and I already do. I highly recommend Dr. Polynice.
Dr. Polynice is incredibly professional and a wonderful surgeon. I would highly recommend!
