My first and second appointment was cancelled due to surgeries scheduled. However, I was able to see her on the third try. Parking at the Santa Monica location is horrendous. It was $17 for the first 15 minutes ..... who stays only 15 minutes ? The next charge is $35 max.... Which I paid. Uuugb that was the horrible part. The office is clean and big. The staff is very nice. The doctor has a beautiful and awesome bedside manner. Dr. Slack seems very caring. She knows her job and she doesn't sugarcoat the process. I'm so glad Dr. Curls referred me to her

I have the BRCA gene and a very strong family history of breast cancer. For me it wasn't a question…read moreof if but rather when I would get it... I've been lucky enough to have had great care at UCLA for screening and risk reduction. Once I was done having and being able to breastfeed my children, my first priority was a prophylactic double mastectomy to make sure I was reducing my risk to ensure I could be around for my kiddos. That was a no brainer. The harder choice? What type of reconstruction (or any at all) to have that fit my life. Enter Dr Slack. We had SO many conversations about the pros and cons of each options, how many procedures each would entail, and so much more. I am so so grateful I found Dr. Slack to be a true partner throughout this whole process. In the end I opted for a DIEP flap, where tissue from my stomach was used to reconstruct breasts, which included quite complex blood vessel attachment and subsequent revision to ensure the shape was natural. I cannot say enough great things about how happy I am to have natural tissue (my weight fluctuates and I have concerns about foreign substances in my body). My kids snuggle me and I am able to feel comfortable in my body. In the process I ended up with a bit of a mommy makeover where my belly skin was improved post pregnancy. I'm now almost two years post-op and am able to retain sensation and have continued losing weight and my body adjusts normally. I can't say enough great things about Dr. Slack's incredible surgical skills, bedside manner, follow up and more. I will forever be grateful to Dr. Slack for giving me the body and confidence I have today.

I was really terrified all my life of plastic surgery and when I was researching doctors it was…read moreeven worse because every time I spoke to an office I always felt like an agenda was being pushed or these crazy unbelievable results were being heavily pushed towards me. Offices were spam calling me back daily or bombarding me with emails like ad agencies lol. Or that typical tiktok "this doctor has THIS special technique" which felt sooo gimmicky and fake. I never felt like I really got to see PS doctors as medical providers and get to speak to them without the shiny Beverly Hills facade. Plastic surgery does have this trendy side.. i get it. But it is still a very big medical procedure and I really felt like I just couldn't trust a lot of these flashy doctors I'd spoken to... I lost around 40 lbs and I always dreamed of fixing my lower pooch area - my case is a little odd because I haven't had kids yet and am relatively lean - I was looking for a really refined result. AND zero BS. just tell me what's possible and what's not. Dr. Kim didn't take a crazy consultation fee. I didn't wait months for a consultation. He didn't try to sell me anything. His office looks and works like an actual (clean and beautiful) medical office. I never waited for my appointments. During my consultation, he gave me plenty of time to ask questions and voice my concerns. I didn't feel like I was being spoken down to or being sold a used car. Finally felt like I'm speaking with a doctor who can actually lay out to me exactly what to expect moving forward, the downsides and upsides of my options, and what was and wasn't possible. Nothing was downplayed or overexaggerated. I had never had surgery before and so I really wasn't ready to have a big procedure like a tummy tuck. I asked if there was a more conservative option for my loose skin/pooch - we settled on a mini tuck with lipo to remove a large portion of my problem area - with the door always open for a full if I ever wanted. Dr. Kim was supportive, nonjudgmental and honest about whatever decision I chose. Results - my mini TT results were BEAUTIFUL. My stubborn lower pooch was totally smoothed out - no lipo ripples or weird creases. I recovered in like 2 weeks. No infections, no broken stitches, no seromas, no hypertrophic scarring, no dead skin, just... nothing. Dr. checked in with me after surgery multiple times to make sure I was doing okay. My garment fit comfortably and I was on just tylenol by the end of day 2. My incision healed into a thin, fine line which was sooo easily covered in a bikini. Way later when I was finally ready for a full tummy tuck surgery to reach the last bits of loose skin, the ease of my decision was in large part influenced by how smooth my past experience was. I trusted I was in good hands, and I was right. AGAIN, the entire procedure despite being a WAY bigger one, was just as smooth as the first time. Drains were easy. Stitches dissolved easily. The new incision is exactly where we planned for it to be - thin, and very very low and replaced my older scar. I entrusted Dr Kim to decide whether muscle repair was needed or not - he said he will if needed, since we're already in there let's make it perfect! I am snatched lol :'D my belly button looks so cute with a little hood, it looks natural and lovely. I'm around 3 weeks out and my incision is already so clean and healing very well. At this point, I can say I have a very good idea of how Dr Kim's office works, the pre op, surgery, the follow up, as well as healing/recovery. All the girls remember me, they make scheduling extremely easy, are fun to talk to, and before and after my operation my nurse really made me feel safe, cared for, and at ease. I was given all instructions and medications promptly and on time, as well as the Dr's personal number for any issues at all. Everyone has their own experiences and surgery is a big decision which can have unpredictable outcomes. But for me, choosing Dr. kim (twice) was the best decision I made for myself. Thank you Dr Kim and team :')

For clarity: I requested a refund due to an outcome I found unacceptable. A revision was offered, but I did not feel comfortable undergoing further surgery with the same provider. At one point, Dr. Karimi's lawyer called me and asked me to get on a Zoom call with her so that she could look at my nose. I told her I felt it would be more appropriate for my doctor to examine my nose rather than a lawyer. The photos include minor anonymity edits (eye coverage) but otherwise reflect my experience. I believe review platforms exist so patients can share honest outcomes and make informed decisions.

I am into eastern medicine, yoga, supplements and etc. I was upset about the idea of surgery. I interviewed four plastic surgeons over the course of two months, as well as talking to many other patients online and on Facebook about breast surgery. In the end, Dr. La Via stood out because she really listened deeply, answered every question in detail, was honest, kind and direct about what to expect. I felt she was a perfectionist and that she was able to see me as a person and guide me to the best option, not just physically and aesthetically, but emotionally. Not all surgeons can do this. I also knew she was my dermatologist's surgeon, which inspired my trust. Dr. La Via helped me make tough decisions about the way my procedure would go. I'm an overthinker and was worried about pain, risks, and potential longterm side effects. I was torn about some of the details, I'm sure I was a bit annoying with all my questions. There was no pressure and ultimately, I felt so confident in Dr. La Via that I let her decide what would work best for me. 5 years post, I'm 100% happy with the guidance, results, and aftercare I received. Also, bonus: I experienced zero pain in the weeks and months post surgery, just fatigue. I have no visible scars. The office team is calm, kind, professional and prompt to answer questions. You are safe and in very good hands with Dr. La Via.

After surgery the slight curtain belly was gone, the tummy was more protruding than before, instead of looking like I was 5 months pregnant, after surgery I looked more like I was 7 months pregnant. Dr Charlotta La Via had no explanation, she had no idea why my belly was larger than before. No refund, no redoing, money lost, pain suffered, make sure you get the right doctor for your procedure. I got the right doctor for my breast, the wrong one for my belly.

Well, possibly of an abstract nature I suppose. I came in for an ethnic revision nose job and now I have to do it all over again. They were very nice until I started confronting about why I look nothing remotely like we discussed. We even put together a simulation photo. The more I asked, the more I was told it was swollen. He never addressed that even swollen, it was molded into a clown shaped nose. It looks like a marble was placed in the front of my nose. He was late to appointments and extremely dismissive. He had also begun to look more and more disheveled at the post op appointments. I waited 37 years to do it and now I have to do it all over again. The pain that I have been through physically, emotionally and financially because of his lack of attention to detail has left me just disgusted with him. This is my experience and my WARNING.

I called Dr. Diaz's office to confirm if this was normal and if anything had happened to not achieve the perfect results expected. Dr. Diaz called and explained everything perfectly and removed all of my concerns. Dr. Diaz is truly one of the best plastic surgeons, and a rhinoplasty is like trying to do surgery on a moving target. To solve for the final 1% of my concern, I was invited to speak to him for a revision in the future if needed. This is all to say, he is truly the best and while 99.999% of his results are all home runs, sometimes very complex noses (like mine) have a slightly almost perfect result and that is OKAY! Absolutely nothing to do with his amazing expertise or the amazing team.
