    Meh. Along with getting a PRP facial from the co-owner and having her vent to me about her divorce the whole time. She made a scar on my nose from going too hard. My breast aug was 2 years ago. Dr.Bennett did measurements and decided to put two different sizes in. I signed off on it. OOOOPS! We had discussed over email recently after operation. I was having problems with the size difference. She offered to switch and charge me for OR fee and anesthesia. I had just got my labs done so she agreed to wave that fee and the implant fee. I wasn't ready to make a decision. Going back a year later I was ready to swap out. I had mentioned this issue again to her in our appointment. We didn't get to discuss it. Every time I wear a bra it pulls to one side so bad it's uncomfortable to wear a bra. When I bend over you can tell the right is smaller. I emailed them about the previous offer. Now they will charge me full. It's business I understand. I don't recall if I had communicated my plans to wait. I'm just a tad salty for being offered something and only a year later they don't care. They do have fair pricing on neurotoxin etc but so do other businesses.

    10 days after breast implant removal with amazing Dr. Bennett.

    Dr. Bennett has changed my life. I was dealing with extreme back pain due to my heavy implants and I no longer related to having large breast. I called the office explained what I was going through and everyone from the front desk, office manager Nadia to Dr. Bennett were incredibly helpful. I explained my sense of urgency due the amount of pain I was in and Nadia did everything she could to help me right away. I had my breast implants removed under local anesthesia. Tip if you are sensitive to needles: Bring headphones, eye mask and some kind of strong pill to relax you before the procedure. Recovery has been very easy. I love the way I look and feel now. I am very grateful. Dr. Bennett is a kind, loving and talented plastic surgeon. You could feel her positive energy right when she enters the room. Thank you to everyone at Gemini Plastic Surgery.

    Dr. Aguiluz DO MPH, I am writing this review as it is very important to me for this review to be transparent to make the public knowledgable when an outstanding service/procedure is performed by a qualified Surgeon. From the moment you evaluated me, you provided me with many options in obtaining the results I was looking for. You showed me a great amount of professionalism, patience, but most importantly I recognized that you were an experienced Surgeon. You made me feel confident that I was in the right hands. The results were remarkable! The time you took on the procedure to minimize scarring was executed amazingly. From beginning to end you followed up on me and even provided your personal phone number to call with any concerns, which showed your great character. You went above and beyond my expectations! I truly appreciate you. Yours truly, Satisfied Upgraded Mama

    1st bikini in over a decade, and it's from the junior department!! Results exceeded my expectations. Thank you Dr. Bennet

    I had my breast reduction with Dr. Ku on June 19, 2025, and I can truly say it has been nothing…read moreshort of LIFE CHANGING! From the very first consultation to my recovery, Dr. Ku and his team have been nothing but professional, compassionate, and incredibly skilled. At 41 years old, I feel like my life has just begun since my surgery. My only regret? That I didn't find Dr. Ku YEARS AGO! The results are beyond what I could have imagined -- I feel and look absolutely amazing. Not only has my confidence skyrocketed, but I feel lighter, healthier, and more comfortable in my own body than I ever thought possible. Dr. Ku is a true artist and a perfectionist in the best way. He listened to all of my concerns, answered every question with patience, and delivered results that exceeded my expectations. His bedside manner is warm and reassuring, and you can tell he genuinely cares about his patients' well-being. If you are even thinking about a breast reduction -- stop waiting. Don't put it off like I did. Schedule your consultation with Dr. Ku TODAY. You will not only be in the best hands, but you'll be giving yourself the gift of a brand new chapter in life. Dr. Ku, thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving me my confidence, my comfort, and my life back.

    Summary: I regret…read morechoosing Dr Ku to perform my tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) and two separate arm lifts (bracheoplasty). I definitely don't recommend Dr Ku for those procedures. I'm unhappy with the results, detailed below. Details: First in 2022, I had a tummy tuck and an arm lift, both during the same surgery. Tummy Tuck Results: The left and right sides of my stomach didn't match. The stitches were tighter on the left end of the incision, creating a muffin-top effect only on that side. Arm Lift Results: My arms didn't match either. My left arm was itself unevenly proportioned, and it was larger than the right arm. (See photos) At post-op visits, I mentioned these concerns. Dr. Ku repeatedly responded by saying "the body is not naturally symmetrical". I felt like I was being dismissed. In my opinion, it's fair to expect matching arms after plastic surgery. If I were getting breast augmentation, I would absolutely expect my left and right breasts to reasonably match. I expected my arms to reasonably match. About a year later, I paid Dr Ku for a revision surgery. I had another arm lift. And I had abdominal liposuction to blend and smooth things out. The results: My arms still don't match. Also, the second surgery created a new fold on the back of my left arm near the armpit. Dr. Ku said the section had been "over-tightened". (See photo) Worst of all, now I have a very noticeable dog ear on my right elbow. A dog ear is an excess of skin and fatty tissue that pokes out at the end of the stitches. It's very embarrassing to me, I feel like it calls more attention to the scar. (See photos) Dr Ku said that in order to correct the dog ear, he will have to extend the scar further down past my elbow. So that would mean no chance of hiding the scar under short sleeves, which is very upsetting. First, he estimated that he could do the dog ear correction under a local anesthetic for a "few hundred". Later, after he saw the fold on my other arm, he said it would be fully another revision surgery. Well, I just couldn't afford a third surgery at that time. Call me crazy, but I had not anticipated needing two revision surgeries. I asked for an extension on his revision price policy, but Dr Ku said no. I could not understand the issue with giving me more time. We were already two years into this. I had been very patient with him! And I had tried so hard to stay positive! The whole situation felt very unfair to me at that point. I realized it was a bad idea to consider a third surgery with Dr. Ku. I was just blinded by the revision price. Fast forward to now: I seriously regret the arm lifts. Now, my arms are scarred, plus they don't match. I've been wearing long sleeves for three years, even in triple degree summer heat waves. I'm just so embarrassed. And I don't even know when I can afford another surgeon. I wasted so much money, time, risk, stress. Don't risk throwing away your dream surgery. Just choose another surgeon. Two stars because the staff is great, and the facility is nice. I felt safe having surgery there.

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Brian K. Machida and his entire staff. My experience…read morewith their office has been exceptional from beginning to end. Dr. Machida performed my deep plane facelift, upper and lower eyelid surgery, full-face laser treatment, and additional CO laser resurfacing around my mouth. Throughout the entire process, I always felt listened to, cared for, and treated with genuine kindness. Dr. Machida is highly skilled, meticulous, and takes the time to answer questions and make sure his patients feel comfortable and informed. What impressed me most was not only the quality of his work, but also the level of support and follow-up I received. Knowing that my surgeon and his team truly cared about my recovery gave me tremendous peace of mind. His staff is absolutely amazing. Everyone is warm, professional, and compassionate. I especially want to recognize Bertha at the front desk. She is simply lovely. Every time I visited, she greeted me with kindness and always sent me off with a cheerful "Safe travels." Those little personal touches mean so much and make you feel like family rather than just another patient. Cosmetic surgery is a big decision, and I am grateful that I chose Dr. Machida and his team. Their skill, compassion, and dedication to their patients are truly outstanding. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Brian K. Machida to anyone seeking facial plastic surgery and rejuvenation procedures.

    If you are not keen to read a longer review, the headline is DR. MACHIDA IS THE BEST AND I REALLY…read moreCANNOT RECOMMEND HIM ENOUGH! For further detail, keep reading... ...I don't think I have experienced anything in life where I have felt so confident and eager to recommend something with no doubt - I am worried I won't find the words to truly convey how skilled Dr. Machida is as a facelift surgeon (as well as upper blepharoplasty) but I will try my best because I want anyone considering this surgery to visit Dr. Machida for a consultation. I am going to jump ahead and highlight now that my results and recovery were INCREDIBLE (just in case people don't make it to the end because I know this is a bit long) - I am so delighted with both. I had been researching facelift surgery for almost one year and was becoming overwhelmed at what felt like an impossible decision - how could I decide who I could trust to operate on my face?! I explored many surgeons from London in England (where I am from), to many across Los Angeles, including Beverly Hills, attending several consultations, but I just did not feel fully 'sold' on any surgeon I saw. When I came across Dr. Machida online, I felt encouraged but, to be honest, a little sceptical - his reviews were so good, I thought, can this be true?? Honestly, from the moment I called his office and spoke with Bertha, I started to feel excited - this felt different, it sounds silly, but I could just tell that these people knew what they were doing. There was no sales patter, no pressure, just clear information with a warmth that immediately made me feel at ease. This feeling was entirely cemented when I attended the clinic for my consultation. I could write pages and pages but all I will say is, I wish I had met someone like me over a year ago who could tell me that this is the right decision. Of course, you do not know me, you don't know if you can trust me but, believe me, I am fussy, hard to please and will research everything to the most extreme degree. I wasn't willing to scrimp when it came to an operation on my face but, equally, I was not willing to use my life savings for this procedure which is why my research had to be meticulous. Dr. Machida and his staff are too good to be true...except they are not! Dr. Machida is a magician, Sharon is a wonder, her care for me was more than my mother would give, I swear! Norma is a joy and Bertha will leave no stone unturned to help you...she always goes above and beyond to ensure you feel like the most precious patient in the world. As soon as you walk in to the office, you will feel the most genuine warmth and care. My results are perfect, they totally exceeded my expectations, and my 'recovery', the speed of it still amazes me, three months later. I have read so much about others' tough recoveries which, to be honest, I was expecting - I mean it's full face surgery, it seems a big deal, right?! I was expecting the worst BUT...honestly, it was shockingly easy, I experienced very little pain and discomfort. I cleaned my entire house five days after my surgery, it was as though I had only undergone a minor procedure. I don't know how Dr. Machida manages this, like I said, a true magician. To clarify, I had the deep plane face/neck lift, upper blepharoplasty and the full face CO2 laser treatment. At no point was there ANY upsell - I enquired for the upper blepharoplasty, in addition, and Dr. Machida said he did not think it was a necessity but that he could understand my desire and he told me to go away and fully consider whether I really felt I needed it. This is entirely the opposite of any of my other consultations where they all added on recommended procedures which I had not mentioned. You will not regret this decision and, as bonus to the wonderful results you will enjoy, you will meet a special group of people you will never forget.

I began hormone replacement therapy (HRT) through the wellness side of Li Surgery in November, with a scheduled follow-up in February for pellet reinsertion. In January, I also enrolled in an additional 3-month program, with a follow-up appointment scheduled for the same February date. On the day of my appointment, I received a call informing me that the wellness center was closing effective immediately. This left me scrambling to find a new HRT provider, which is already a stressful and time-sensitive process. I reached out regarding a refund for the 3-month program I had just started in January. After multiple emails and calls with no response, I was eventually told I would not receive a refund because I had received medication. However, I was only provided a 30-day vial for what was supposed to be a 90-day program. I did not receive additional refills, nor did I receive the follow-up visits that were included in the program services that were canceled by the clinic, not by me. Additionally, the original flyer clearly stated that if the treatment was not a good fit or did not work, a full refund would be issued. Despite this, I have still not received any refund or resolution. Prior to this situation, my experience was positive, staff were friendly and the clinic appeared professional. Unfortunately, the way this closure and billing issue have been handled has been extremely disappointing and has left me without both care and accountability. I hope the office takes responsibility and works toward a fair resolution.

The lady I had been consistently seeing the past 2 years didn't have any availability for 3 months out when I called to set a touch up appointment with her. And with regular injections, 3 months plus out is a LIFETIME to wait. In comes my introduction to Trish...the "Youth Gods" intervening I like to think. What caught my attention was the pricing. I've always paid per unit anywhere between $9-12. Not here, it is per injection site/location. I always get my full forehead, scalp, crows feet, and upper lip (flip). Each site/location has its own pricing. But what had me SOLD and now a true Trish follower, following your injection treatment you get the opportunity to schedule a follow up within 1-3 weeks to come back in and get any touch up that you personally feel needs a little more "oomph". No Extra Charge!!! My 10 years of history, the 3 weeks proceeding I always need a little bit more because something didn't take or is not "frozen" enough to my liking and each time I have to shell out even more money. Trish took all the time I personally needed to feel confident and comfortable. I explained to her I like to be completely "frozen", zero movement in the areas I get treated. My first treatment came out Outstanding, but of course I always see what others don't because I'm my harshest critic, went back 2 weeks later and got a little bit more in the areas I addressed. Trish, once again took her time with me and I walked out looking 10 years younger her. The full staff I encountered on both initial visits were friendly, professional and kind. Thank you to the whole Dr. Nykiel team! I'm officially a full time patient of Trish's and had to officially end my long running years with my former Injectors. God Speed!

    I put off writing this review for about a year, but I've decided to finally share my experience so…read moreothers can be more informed. I initially chose Dr. Nykiel based on his positive reviews, but I ended up feeling disappointed not only with my outcome, but also with how my experience was handled. I am a petite asian girl that already had a good foundation to begin with, so I thought there would be no issues with the outcome. We both decided that an upside down heart shaped butt would look best on me, even printing out inspirations of what I wanted. The surgery finally came (May 2025) and I woke up laying flat on my butt. Idk if that affected the outcome but my butt came out looking like a square, I tried to keep positive, as it was supposedly going to get better overtime. Every consultation I had with him, he always came alone in his office. I found that strange, because I have never had a doctor evaluate me without a second person there to be a witness. At a follow-up visit, I expressed that I was still unhappy with my results, and he asked me, "Have you thought about getting implants?" That comment left me frustrated and confused, as I had specifically come to him for a BBL. It made me question him as a surgeon, and why he would agree to do it in the first place. Since then, the consultations have felt like an ongoing back-and-forth without a clear direction or resolution, as if he didn't remember any of our previous conversations. At times, the outcome was attributed to my body composition, which I personally found difficult to reconcile with earlier conversations about my goals and expectations. During the last consultation on September 24, 20225, I made a point to document the interaction because I've consistently felt like I'm not getting clear or consistent answers from him. I asked if we could take before-and-after photos, and he agreed, so I took a few. I then asked if I could record a video of him explaining the results for my own records, and he initially agreed to that as well. However, once I began recording and asked him to walk me through the before-and-after, he became defensive and abruptly ended the conversation by leaving the room. This has been an incredibly long and difficult experience, and the way he handled it has honestly been traumatic for me. When I tried to confront him about everything, he yelled at me to "get out." I was left shaking and completely overwhelmed. This situation has caused me significant emotional distress--I think about it every day, and haven't fully recovered from the trauma. I'm sharing this as a warning to other women: please be cautious, and consider bringing someone with you to your consultations. In my experience, I felt dismissed and that my concerns weren't acknowledged, really thinking why (as a patient) I was treated like this. I am now trying to close this chapter of my experience with him, and hoping to get this fixed somewhere else. There was more unprofessionalism that Dr. Nykiel and the staff had me go through but I'm keeping this short.

Barinder was amazing during check-in and provided exceptional customer service from the moment I arrived. RN Jessica and her trainee, RN Mindy, were professional, knowledgeable, and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire procedure. They explained everything clearly, answered my questions, and made the treatment as smooth as possible. The clinic is clean, modern, and welcoming, and the entire staff was friendly and professional. I highly recommend LaserAway Victoria Gardens to anyone considering tattoo removal. Thank you, Barinder, Jessica, and Mindy, for the outstanding care and service!

    This place is an absolute joke. Do not waste your hard earned money here. I signed up for laser…read moreremoval on the bikini, under arms and legs. That was my first mistake buying such a large package. I still have hair everywhere, I'm still shaving but what made my the experience horrible was the inconsistency. I didn't even know ice packs existed until my 3rd treatment. Then on my LAST treatment the girl walked in and said I was applying the ice packs wrong and I can give my self really bad dark spots. The first session the girl didn't tape around my tattoo and got super close to it...I have hair growing in that exact spot now because moving forward every person tapped it and refused to get that close...so thanks for the additional hair growth! I received a call asking if I was happy at the end of all my services. I said no, she apologized and then hung up. Now I'm getting sent a survey via email weeks later. If you aren't going to do anything to make it better...why even follow up?? I'm currently researching other places for laser removal. Unfortunately, I've learned my lesson. Research. Research. Research. I wasn't going to leave a review but since they keep following up for my opinion on the services (phone call and now survey). I thought...well alright. I'll give my opinion
