I ended up not getting anything done here, but I want to leave a review to speak to how trustworthy and kind Dr. Assassa is. I came in to learn more about a procedure for hyperhidriois. They offer a treatment called Sweat Zap. I told him I was also considering another option that a different practice has, called MiraDry. He was very honest with me and actually recommended that the Mira Dry option would be the best for my specific issue and body. This really speaks to how he just wants what's in the patient's best interest, instead of pushing his own work. On top of that, the office staff was incredibly friendly and the office was such a comforting and relaxing environment. If I were getting any work done, I would definitely come here! read more

I can't even begin to explain how AMAZING and wonderful Dr. Assassa and his team are. From the moment you enter their building, hallway and office, you just get all the best energy. He greets you with warmth and understanding. No games, gets straight to the point of what you need. Asks about your concerns and cares. He has the kindest eyes and smile. So smart, so talented. Truly one of the best doctors. They took very good care of me. Highly recommend. Will come back for sure because this doctor is truly the BEST. Gives good advice, cares, is intelligent, professional and I can go on and on. Thank you Yana, Paris, Dr. Assassa and to the whole team at Beverly Hills Aesthetics. There are no amount of words that can define or describe how great they are. Sending so much love. Thank you for giving me my confidence back after having 3 children xoxoxo read more

I cannot recommend Dr. Assassa and this clinic. I came here for a consultation regarding Botox in the masseter muscle. Since I previously had Botox that resulted in a paralyzed smile, I specifically said that I wanted to avoid this at all costs, but Dr. Assassa assured me that it absolutely wouldn't happen again and that it was due to incorrect technique at my previous clinic. He then recommended proceeding with the treatment during the consultation itself, which I agreed to. Three weeks later, one side of my smile was paralyzed, and I sent pictures and videos of this. I received a response saying that Dr. Assassa could "easily fix this" if I came back to the clinic. However, I've done a lot of research on this and know there's no way to fix a paralyzed smile other than waiting for the Botox to wear off. I emailed back asking how Dr. Assassa planned to fix this, and the response was that he would "balance out my smile" by treating the side that wasn't paralyzed--essentially paralyzing the other side as well, which I of course wasn't interested in...! I now have very little trust in this doctor and clinic, and I cannot recommend them to anyone. read more

Can't recommend Dr. Assassa enough! I went in for a non surgical rhinoplasty, I did a ton of research to find the safest place to get this done since the nose is a very delicate and risky area to have filler done. He gave me the most natural and best results. He's also super kind. And when I suggested I might need chin filler as well because I thought my chin was slightly regressed he said I absolutely don't and have a perfect chin. Not only didn't try and upsell me but talked me out of doing too much! The prices here are also extremely affordable compared to other doctors (and even medspas that don't have the doctors doing the injections) in LA and Beverly Hills. Definitely will be back. read more

I'm so glad For choosing AAAMS with Dr.Assasa. The foundation of your knowledge in the aesthetics field is far more important than ur techniques as an injector . They were so organized and well put together from the start . Paris and Lana were so helpful from signing me up explaining every detail to me and getting my courses started . Paris , walked me through the course logins and made sure I was set up and ready to go for the intial day . Hence , you do have to complete multiple online modules before going into hands on training . Paris , was available even after hours to help answer any questions or trouble shooting issues I had . Day of training Paris /Lana have breakfast and a welcome packet , materials and a mannequin provided for you . Dr. Assasa had individual live patients for you to practice on as well . It's very hands on and through . I've definitely taken other courses as well but this was the most informative and well put together course that I still refer back onto my notes . Lana gives u a framed certificate at the end of the course and emails one to you as well . This course deff doesn't disappoint and worth every dollar invested on myself! read more

Brilliant with Botox! While waiting for a friend who was having her post op appointment for Lipo I decided to get a little something for myself. I have had Botox in the past but both times it was just a stab n go so that is how I thought it was done. Well it's not the way Dr. Sam does it! He takes the time to figure out where the creases are coming from before injecting and he has you come in for a follow up to make sure the results are perfect! (And they are) I'm waiting on another friend who is having a Lipo procedure as I type. I can't wait to see her results! I am excited to have my "saddlebags" done! I have hated them all my life and after seeing the wonderful results Marcia had and spending so much time in and out of here I know I would not go anywhere else! I will update my review after my procedure! From the moment you walk in you will feel cared for and at home whether you are here for yourself or just hanging out waiting for your friend. read more

This man is so charismatic and full knowledge!! I have no idea why these people here is talking so bad about him. I have been in one thousand great plastic surgeons in LA and abroad and I can tell you that not everyone has the right sense to what you really need, but Dr. Assasa really surprised me. I got at the office scared because of the bad reviews on yelp and he knows that because that was the first thing I told him: "Doctor I have a bunch of questions for you because you have quite a few good reviews, but a couple of very scary reviews that almost made me cancel my appointment." He genuinely smiled at me, a little embarrassed, but he started answering me each one of my questions. I know a good doctor when I see one and he is. I hope I can afford all my procedures with him because I will come back here to post my pictures and make this people who is mad with their lives stopping bad mouthing such a good professional as Dr. Assasa seems to be. It is ridiculous the use that some reviewers make of this yelp, its like a weapon for them to defame others, and I want to prove they are wrong. Yes, it was my first time at his office, which has an amazing atmosphere by the way with very nice and friendly staff, but I know a good professional when I see one, especially in beauty ladies, I am Brazillian, and that explains why by itself. I was born and raised to cultivate beauty, so relax, make your appointment with him and enjoy as I did. Thanks Dr. Assasa for your time and kind!!!! read more

Doctor is very pretentious. Scheduled a consult which was 1 hour away. During the consult I was specific about the minimalist fillers I wanted to achieve some subtle enhancements to my forehead and nose. He claimed I was too perfectionist, accused me of having body dysmorphia and refused to provide the service. I am very natural and confident in the way I look so his accusations were out of pocket. I believe he has an ego and doesn't want his patients to have too much of an opinion. If I am doing anything to my face it is because I have thought it over and am familiar with what I would like to accomplish. He advertises being an expert with nose and forehead filler which is why I went to him. Perhaps he is traumatized from so many bad reviews and procedures in the past (see previous business yelp page: ( http://www.yelp.com/biz/the-aaams-beverly-hills) He was afraid someone knew what they were talking about/wanted (I have worked in the beauty industry for 20 years) and knows he cannot provide good results. Extremely strange individual. I immediately booked an appointment elsewhere and received the services with no issue and amazing natural results. Don't waste your time! read more

I love coming here. Everyone is so genuinely sweet and kind. And I love my results. Ive been coming here for years. I often grind my teeth at night, so intensely that I've broken a few teeth, my face and neck are sore the next morning, and my jaw muscles grow significantly. Eliminating coffee and sugar has helped my TMJ, reducing stress helps too, but getting treatment here always helps reduce the grinding and slims my face. I am so grateful for their help over the years. read more

I absolutely love Dr. Assassa and his staff! I've had botox and the results have always been fabulous! Mentioned him to a co-worker and he filled in her lines that were sagging by her mouth. When I saw her after her visit; I couldn't believe how fresh, younger, relaxed and awesome she looked! Didn't tell me until later she saw him. Recommended him to two others and they were all happy! He is so friendly; we worked in the same building and he happily greeted me in the elevator; which made me more comfy to make an appointment. Even the Doctor I was working for commented on what a friendly person he was! I've never felt pushed into something I didn't ask for or to change my face or body in anyway. His staff are all so beautiful and really want to accommodate you! If I could give him 1,000 stars I would! Thank you Dr. Assassa and staff! read more

My wife and I attended the IV vitamin infusion course at beverly hills aesthetics. I usually don't have time for reviews due to my busy schedule. But this experience was absolutely amazing! Kareem and Dr. Assassa have done a spectacular job with their IV vitamin drip course. They were both professional, knowledgeable, as well as informative. Their Spa is one of a kind! Dr. Kausik Roy, MD Austin Texas read more

I have been going to Dr Assassa for years!! Love love his work and everything about this establishment! He's bedside manner is perfect for nervous patients. I have had Botox and a facial pill most recently and the results have been amazing. read more

I had such a great experience at Beverly Hills Aesthetics! Dr. Assassa is probably one of the nicest doctors I have ever met. He did full back lipo on me and made sure that I was comfortable the entire time. The staff is also absolutely amazing and so welcoming. Not only is the customer service outstanding, but the results from my lipo is just as great. I am super happy with how everything turned out and I'm still healing, so I can't imagine how it will look once I'm fully recovered. I would highly recommend going to Dr. Assassa if you are interested in lipo! read more

I have been going to Dr. Sam Assassa for more than 10 years for different type of services and procedures and I always leave happy. He is patient, caring, talented, very knowledgeable and honest. He is a perfectionist! I can not say enough great things about Dr Assassa. I love his work and the treatments he offers! I highly recommend him, he is the best and his staff is wonderful too! read more

I received a coupon in the mail through ValuPack. Thought a consultation was in order. I wanted the smart-lipo treatment. Met with staff. Left without making any promises or booking procedure. Went home and did my research first. I learned the Doctor is NOT a Certified Plastic Surgeon and even changed the business name. Why? Maybe all the negative yelp reviews? I don't know. See original business name/reviews of THE AAAMES BEVERLY HILLS below. Original Name of business and reviews on Yelp: http://www.yelp.com/biz/the-aaams-beverly-hills I've decided to look elsewhere. read more

MY PROCEDURE is exactly how I prayed for it to turn out!!! After 3 weeks, even though I know that the swelling has not subsided yet, I am thrilled. I can see drastic improvement already and each day that passes, it gets better and better (yes, patience, because swelling takes time to go away, and we are, after all, human bodies made of tissue and liquid). Mentally, something that bothered me SO much has been eliminated.. I feel, lifted, lighter in spirit, and better all around. For open disclosure, I had had a "Mommy Makeover" years before, and was left with what I found out is a common result - an enlarged Mons Pubis mound. Many women suffer from the same issue, but are too embarrassed to go to a doctor! When I had on a dress, I felt like I looked like I had a sock packed in my underwear, and it made me extremely self-conscious. As I read more and more and found out that many doctors do the lipo on this area at the same time of the makeover to avoid this, and my doctor (NOT Dr. SAM, the original one who did my mommy makeover) had not taken any steps to make sure this side affect did not occur. Well it DID! It has been awful for almost 8 years now. Anyway, going back to Dr. Sam for my after appointment checkups, I was met with warmth and true caring and concern. Many times when you go to a clinic for any type of 'cosmetic' treatment, you feel like once they get your money, they are 'done' with you.. NOT DR. SAM and his crew! I LOVE THEM. They are sincere, good people, and Dr. Sam is an artist. Different than an egotistical artist, his goal is that YOU (I) are happy with his artistry. AND I AM. So much so, I have recommended two friends to the office, and they BOTH love him as well. My closest friend had a FULL UPPER AND LOWER ABDOMINAL LIPOSUCTION done LAST WEEK... and OH MY GOD... ALREADY she looks like a different person!!! Her results are smooth, and perfectly done. And now I am going to stop reviewing, and call to make another appointment for a couple other little tweaks... I have confidence in this team, because they have earned it! read more

I had a really bad experience here. I went to get intra dermal botox to minimize my pores and it was not worth it. He gave me a nerve block and also gave me nerve damage, my cheeks are still numb...3 weeks later. I was in so much pain I couldn't even finish the procedure. His nurse was slapping my arm while he was injecting me to misdirect the pain. Which is an outdated method of managing pain. His bedside manor was really sub par, I just felt like a piece of meat he was butchering up. He didn't let me know when he was about to inject me, he just went for it. I left his office in tears. It was so embarrassing. I was swollen for 4 days after the procedure and I haven't even seen much of a difference in my pores. I will never ever return here. Im sure hes a decent human being but not a decent doctor. please keep in mind I am a surgical junkie. Ive had over a dozen different procedures done and I get botox religiously. Im sorry to say this was the only procedure I regret doing and the worst cosmetic experience I've ever had. Please beware if you try intradermal botox with him. read more

Dr. Assassa is not Southern California's typical plastic surgeon; he is a phenomenal artist compassionate about his work. I admire Dr. Sam honesty, and suggestions. Future patients please listen to the doctor's suggestions, than explain to him what you like and dislike about your features, or figure. I did not like something about my figure; I could not point out, or describe what exactly I did not like. During the consultation I listened to what Dr. Sam suggested. I am completely satisfied with my results. Dr. Sam is an outstanding, caring, loving surgeon. His work is genuine and natural looking. The entire staff provided friendly and marvelous customer service making each individual feel special. read more

I've been going here for years and the lazer results from Diane are amazing!! I really don't know what her magic is but whatever it is, is worth the drive from Redondo Beach! I've also been to Mary who is super great. The staff is friendly and nice and so is Dr Assassa. Parking is free on the street. Love this office!! read more

I found Dr. Assassa at least 6 years ago. I had tried a filler with a different Doctor and to say the least it was done wrong. Instead of looking better I looked 15 years older. He was amazing he knew exactly what to do and why it wasn't working. Over the years I have used him for several different procedures and he is the BEST! He really cares and is a perfectionist and will always do what it takes to make you look your best. Above all he will be honest and tell you if you don't need something. Instead of trying to sell you on things and making you look fake. I believe a everyone should do there best to age gracefully. And I wouldn't trust anyone else with these big decisions! I even sent my best friend to him. That says it all. I have never looked better. read more

After years of contemplation and skepticism, I finally tried having my love handles reduced with SmartLipo this past April at the age of 43. Three months post surgery I am truly AMAZED at the results. Dr. Assassa and his staff were wonderful throughout the entire experience. They were very knowledgeable, forthcoming about what I could expect post surgery, they were professional, compassionate and even after several months, they still are truly interested in how I am doing and what results I have seen. When you read that SmartLipo is a procedure that takes months to see and enjoy the results, they are NOT EXAGGERATING or trying to fool you. I am the world's biggest skeptic, and after three months, I am now a true believer. The love handles that I had before are now gone. The post surgery swelling takes weeks to subside, but when it finally does, you will be amazed. I highly recommend Dr. Assassa and his staff without reservation. I am more than impressed with the care and results I have seen. If these were the final results I would be MORE than satisfied. I can't believe that I have yet to see the final results at six months! Thank you Dr. Assassa and your staff for guiding me along this process. read more

I have no words to describe how truly thankful I am to have come across Dr. Assassas and Beverly Hills Aesthetics. From the minute I walked in for my consultation I felt very welcomed and very comfortable. I had liposuction done using the SAFE technique and wow, I feel amazing. My confidence is back, I'm smiling more, and I feel great. I highly recommend Beverly Hills Aesthetics read more

Dr. Assassa is phenomenal. He is a perfectionist in all that he does. His office staff is amazing. Everyone should know about him and trust his expertise. I have been to several Dr's in the area. Trust me when I say, no one compares. I will continue to recommend his services. read more

I've been going to Beverly Hills Aethetics for a few year for some laser hair removal and it's been great. Mary does a great job and the staff is SUPER helpful and friendly. I've also referred friends and family to Dr. Sam and the feedback has always been extremely positive. For example, he won't do anything he doesn't think you need and thus, he's very honest and has integrity. He's done botox for my friends and the results are always great, never "over done" and the price is better than other places. So you're receiving great service, what an awesome staff and a fantastic value. I rarely post reviews, but I'm doing so because I've referred many people to Dr. Sam and the results have always been great, so I have no reservations now letting everyone know about his services. read more

I went to Dr. Assassa for a consult for Botox and what I loved about him is that he was honest and told me I don't need it. I did a chemical peel & loved the results. I'm going in tomorrow for a lipo consult!! read more

I can't say enough nice things about Dr. Assassa! He is a true artist with his work! I went in recently for Botox. He is such a kind man and took the time to talk to me about my face structure and make excellent suggestions to enhance my beauty! I even went back for my follow up a week later and he tweaked it just a tad to make it perfection. He is incredible with the face and I highly recommend him. He has very gentle bedside manor and it was literally pain free with his technique. I look refreshed, younger, and very natural! Also, his assistant Yolana is also really kind and helpful. The office as a whole was delightful. Will recommend Bev Hills Aesthetics to people personally and think anyone will be in great hands with Dr. Assassa and his staff! read more

This clinic is loaded with incredibly kind people. Doc always goes for a natural look and he achieves it. He will not do what he thinks will look bad, he explains why and earned my full trust in doing so. Most doctors would do anything as long as they get paid. I never felt pressured. In addition he is not like other doctors putting Botox in the same place on every face. He treats each face or body individually and each person he works on is his art. At my last appointment I was ill, more than I knew. I was a basket case. They went out of their way to provide TLC. A big hug from Doc and a pep talk, I left realizing I better take a harder look at my health. I will never forget their kindness and how my health was put first. Doc is a great hugger and not one person is cold hearted. I highly recommend and thank everyone. read more

Excellent care and excellent results! I had Botox and fillers done and am so happy with my results. Dr. Assassa is an artist. He cares about what he does and is honest and caring man. With an amazing staff and nurturing environment i would absolutely go back and highly recommend Beverly Hills Aesthetics!!! read more

I have been going to Beverly Hills Aesthetics for over 10 years.....I go for an IPL procedure to lessen redness on my face. The staff is always very friendly and has a family feel. Dr. Assassa is truly a professional and cares about your satisfaction. I have had no problems with the IPL procedure until a recent visit. For some reason, I had some poor results and my skin responded poorly...very red and sore for 5 days. What surprised me was the professionalism of this staff, When I called the office regarding my reaction, they quickly responded by NOT being defensive, but how to remedy the problem. I am now satisfied and will continue to recommend this site for further work.....just had a bad reaction.....it happens read more

Dr. Assassa's name says it all. Just read between the lines. He RUINED my neck with his supposedly "painless" "advanced" "minimally invasive" "cutting edge" lipo sculpture technique. It was the most PAINFUL, horrifying experience I'd ever had. It left me scarred for life AND my double chin NEVER tightened up or went away as promised. Something went terribly wrong with his TWO attempts at this FRIGHTENING and EXTREMELY PAINFUL AND INVASIVE procedure, and then NUMEROUS botox shots in an attempt to fix his botched treatment. This guy is a quack and has NO IDEA what he is doing. Please feel free to respond to this post if you'd like to see my horrific results in person. I've been to several top plastic surgeons in the area in an effort to fix his mess and they could not believe what this "doctor" did to my neck. The scar tissue is such that it may not even be fixable by plastic surgery. Did Dr. Assassa take ANY responsibility to have his botched job made right? NO!! He just referred me to a "friend" of his who claimed to be a plastic surgeon and would fix his mess for $8000. Unbelievable. This quy is a smooth sales man, a rip off artist and definitely NOT a doctor by any stretch of the imagination. BUYER BEWARE. read more

I've been going to Dr Sam for a few years now and one of the most refreshing things about it is that he only agrees to work on and improve what he thinks you need, without attempting to up-sell you for the sake of charging you more money. His work is natural and only gets better with time. They are also very accommodating to your schedule and Christina at the front is awesome. Highly recommend :) read more

I've been coming to Dr. Assassa since 2010 and I am always happier than the last time! I have had a multitude of different services (IPL, lip enhancement) and procedures (smart lipo) and I am always 100% satisfied. The girls up front are always super sweet and treat me like we have been friends forever (not in a fake way either) Diane does my IPL's and she is amazing!!! I would strongly suggest coming to see Dr. Assassa, you will be so happy you did! I always feel more beautiful every time I leave his office! read more

I love Dr. Assassa's minimalist approach. He is a true artist in making sure your treatments leave you looking refreshed and not overdone. I trust no one else as much. read more

I highly recommend Dr. Assassa for any non surgical procedures. The kindness of the staff really allows the patient to feel comfortable- from the front desk assistant to the nurse and especially the Dr himself. This place goes this extra mile to ensure their customers are well taken care of. Dr.Assassa does take the time to see each patient himself. Most importantly the results of his work, in fillers, are natural and flawless. read more

BH Aesthetics and Dr. Sam Assassa: Got a livingsocial deal for 25 units of Botox for $150 at this place, even while i was in the room i felt like the surgeon didn't even inject anything (usually my forehead bulges out a bit for half an hour) so i even said to him "i feel like you didn't inject anything" and he brushed it off with "Oh I'm just really good at this". Well, I have been doing Botox for 3-4 years now and with 25 units have come to measure a reliable pattern of it wearing off after 4-5 months- well, it has barely been 2 months and the effect is gone. Called to complain and they did not even offer a conciliatory treatment in order keep their costumer service reputation intact and just wriggled themselves out by saying it's normal for it to wear off that fast. No, i know MY normal and that wasn't it- Verdict: Rip off, don't trust them, bad costumer service with no attempt to rectify. 2 thumbs down for BH Aesthetics and Dr. Sam Assassa. read more

I went here for laser hair reduction. Compared to other places, the services here are ridiculously over-priced. Plus, they use an older type of laser that is extremely painful for dark-skinned people and may cause scabbing/scarring that lasts for weeks or months. Of course, they never divulged this information to me. I learned this after the damage was done and after I went to another location for laser hair reduction. read more
