Dr. Hardesty performed my daughter's Otoplasty and we couldn't be happier with the results. He was so kind and caring and answered all the questions and concerns we had. His assistant Narsel was also AMAZING. We loved her!!!!! She made my daughter feel so comfortable, and it honestly felt like we have known her for years. They definitely make a good team. Highly recommend. read more

I was a loyal patient for years, but after the practice was sold, everything went downhill. My appointments were cancelled multiple times, communication was poor, and even someone in the office suggested I see another surgeon. After years of loyalty, this experience was disappointing, and I can no longer recommend. read more

I had a Botox appointment and had the best experience. Christina is so talented and educated. I felt completely at home with her and she didn't rush the treatment at all. She spent so much time making sure my Botox was exactly where and how I wanted while also educating me so l knew what to expect. I highly suggest her and the Imagine Plastic Surgery team as a whole. The ladies at the front were so sweet and made sure to take care of me as well. Great experience!! Can't wait to come back! read more

Unfortunately I got a beyond botched boob job :( I am a young single mom who had been wanting a breast augmentation for years!!! I always wished I could wear dresses that showed cleavage but never had the big boobs for them. I saved up for years and when I was just $1500 short I sold my car so I can get this augmentation done. So you can understand how badly I wanted this. Getting my surgery done here has been my biggest life regret. Not only did I lose $8,000 that I spent years saving but I'm disfigured and mutilated on both of my breast PERMANTLY because I can't afford to get this corrected by someone else. I wasn't self conscious before, I just wanted bigger boobs and now I'm so self conscious I can't even wear a top that shows cleavage without people seeing my mutilation. I can't get intimate with people because of this.. I can't wear bikinis... this surgery has made me cry myself to sleep many nights. Immediately after my surgery I noticed the implant on my left breast fell out of out the breast pocket. I texted Dr. Hardesty a picture and he told me I had a 80% chance it would correct itself without me needing surgery again. The next thing I noticed was I had a huge crease on the right side of my breast. It looks hideous. He told me there's nothing he can do about the crease because it's "the anatomy of my body" that's the problem not the boob job and he said he would try his best to make it look better. After 8 months passed it was finally time for my second surgery by Dr. Hardesty so he could fix the issues. I was so excited for this date I waited 8 long months!! I was counting down the months then the weeks and then the days! I was so happy to finally get them fixed I cried the day of my surgery because I thought finally I don't have to feel ugly and embarrassed! I couldn't afford anesthesia I could only afford the surgery where I was awake (THANK GOD) because after he finished and sutured me back up, I looked in the mirror and had a panic attack because the breast with the crease looked 5x worse than before. He told me it was because he put extra sutures in and that there's a chance the crease would go away once the sutures dissolved by why would I risk that?? Why would I risk the crease being worse and not going away just like it didn't go away the first time when he told me I had a 80% my other breast would correct itself. I couldn't trust his chances. So he opened me back up for a 3rd time to attempt to make the crease less noticeable. My left breast now looks okay but my right breast still has a ugly crease and on top of that now my nipple is completely pointing to the left and is on the left side of my boob. It looks worse than before. My left nipple is still lifted and perfectly centered so when you look at both my boobs at the same time you see one normal one and the other one is so uneven with the nipple way lower by inches and all the way to the side of the boob. My nipple wasn't messed up like this after my first surgery by him just my second one. So not only do you see the ugly crease but you see completely unsymmetrical and uneven nipples. In the pictures I've attached you'll see my before picture at the end. Through my entire experience Dr.Hardesty was also very forgetful. He would tell me one thing at one visit and then totally contradict himself and tell me something opposite at the next visit and this happened often. I recommend he takes notes during each appointment so he can remember what was discussed.. out of the 15 times I was at his office he only took notes my first visit and the visit right before my surgery. That made me feel not important because I felt like he was always in a rush and kept trying to seem like my major concerns were no big deal because there was a chance they would correct themselves and if not he would do his best to fix it. He also told me he doesn't know why the crease is there and my breast never had a crease before the surgery. Since he worked on my right breast 3 times I now have nerve damage. Anytime something touched my right side I get a shocking pain and same thing when I try lifting my arm up I get the same shocking pain in my breast. I put my trust into imagine plastic surgery and now all I can imagine is getting my breasts fixed one day. :( read more

Dr. Hardesty did my remove and replace breast augmentation on July 3rd. I am 6 days post op and I feel AMAZING! From the 1st moment I walked into his office to get my consultation, to the moment I left the surgery center, they treated me like family. I had 12 year old saline implants, and one had ruptured in April due to a mammogram. When I went for my consultation, Dr Hardesty was professional, caring and listened to all my concerns and what I was hoping my final look to be. I went with the "gummies" which I highly recommend. The entire office staff is amazing: sweet, knowledgeable, and professional. Narsel, the nurse, spent a lot of time with me making sure I got the perfect size for me and my body frame and that I was 100% happy. Elizabeth was wonderful about explaining the financial process, and the whole staff remembered who I was after only one visit. I was nervous the day of surgery, but the staff and Dr Hardesty put me at ease. I could not possibly be more pleased with my results! They look exactly as I imagined and had explained to Dr the look I was going for. My pain was very minimal, I have next to no bruising, and I was up and moving the day of surgery with no issues (still following Dr's orders, of course). Dr even gives you his cell number to text him with any concerns post op. Who does that?! No one! That is just one reason he is the best! I go to echocardiogram school, and I was fine to go to school the following weekend. At school, all my classmates said how amazing I looked and at least 6 of my fellow students asked for Dr Hardesty's contact information for a breast augmentation consult. I highly recommend if you are thinking about ANY cosmetic procedure, go see Dr. Hardesty! He is the BEST and his bedside manner matches his surgical skills! 10/10 would recommend him to anyone seeking cosmetic surgery. He did my daughter's breast implants 3 years ago, and she did as amazing as well. If you want your surgery done right and would like to go to a surgeon and an office that makes you feel like family, do yourself a favor and book a free consultation! read more

Please read my previous review How insulting this doctor pretends he doesn't know or ever saw me. A quick simple search would confirm I was a patient. If he can't remember patients or conversations, then that's a big issue & he shouldn't be cutting people open. I cannot make all of this up if I wanted! You shouldn't dismiss my greivences so quickly. Be professional and uphold your standards. I am a REAL unsatisfied patient and it is my right to free speech and warn others. read more

Imagine Plastic Surgery - When Dr. H questions if I was even a real patient. Here you go! - Cosmetic Surgeons Near Me - Riverside, California

I had a consultation for breast augmentation. I had a bad experience, I felt unsafe and very uncomfortable.

I just want to say Thank You to Dr Hardesty and staff! Bianca has been truly amazing with responding to my messages answering any questions I may have had and to the post op care she provided to me. The whole staff and Dr Hardesty made me feel extremely comfortable and truly care about their patients. I had a Tummy Tuck in July with muscle repair and lipo and everything went so smooth. No complications at all! The surgical center and their staff also amazing and I knew I was in great hands. I have wanted a tummy tuck for years after 3 c-sections and I'm so glad I chose Dr Hardesty to perform it. read more

I recently had upper eyelid surgery. Initial consult was excellent and thorough, Dr Hardesty took his time in explaining the procedure and expected results. Narsel the nurse was amazing and so very nice and personable I felt very comfortable in her care. I love my results and highly recommend their services read more

This place is great at promising what you want to hear. The younger girls are at no fault but who you talk to when having a consultation I would Not believe. I got sucked into them being really nice, and them saying my price was good for a bbl. I was told to give pics to Dr. Of how i would like to look. I have had lipo before and i was not heavy just needed a little bit of fat off to apply to butt. I wanted a bigger butt, NOT wide butt as in the 3 pictures i gave to Dr. Per his request. I ended up with a hard tummy for over a year and was told once the hardness goes away i can have my 3 Vellashape 3 treatments. Fast forward, still have some hardness and unevenness in tummy and small rolls on back and bra lines. It looks like no lipo was done, however something had to of happened while i was out because i have scars. The only thing i would say that there is a difference in is my wide butt, which makes me look fat! So this is what i am left with: wide butt, hard and uneven tummy and rolls on backside. They No longer have vellashape OR skin tightening machines available. When i spoke w Elizabeth she said i didnt pay for the 3 treatments of Vellashape it was just something they threw in but because people were not getting good results they no longer offer it. Funny, because before i spoke w Elizabeth i was told machine broke down. Either way, i couldn't get these 3 treatments. That would have been maybe ok if they offered ANYTHING in exchange for my loss. All i got was, im sorry, no we dont offer anything like that here. They wouldnt even offer a facial which cost FAR less. Please save yourself the disappointment and go somewhere else. There are places in the IE and Palm Desert that are better and cheaper! I should've listened to the negative reviews of this place, which btw, i was told they take off, so hopefully my post stays up long enough to help someone. Honestly though, please go somewhere else. I know its hard to find someone you can trust w your body. But do yourself a huge favor and go somewhere else. You Can find someone cheaper just google all areas. Good luck and hope you surgery/treatment turns out better than mine. So disappointing. i have pics if interested and your able to contact me so i can show of how awful my body looks. read more

You could not find a more competent doctor and staff to take care of you. My first initial contact was Elizabeth, she is your go to person from beginning to end. She is so organized ... she runs the ship and vital to the whole operation. Dr. Hardesty is a man of faith and is incredibly knowledgeable , fun to be with and above all so kind. He is the best in this business. I'm a nurse and I recommend him with a clear conscious . Staff:WOW, they are the most wonderful and take care of your every need. Staff has worked with Dr. Hardesty for years, most for over 20 years... that says something. I had a tummy tuck , look and feel fabulous. Truth.. recovery was painful but I'm good now. read more

I can't even put into words how extremely satisfied I am with Dr. Hardisty & his staff. I spent about a year doing research before I finally decided to go to Dr. Hardisty's office. This was the best decision I have ever made! During my consultation he noticed a spot on my boyfriend's face and insisted he get it checked out, it ended up being cancerous. ( he goes above and beyond ) If you're are reading this review while trying to decide on what Doctor to pick, my advice to you is... you can quit looking because you just found the best that there is! I'm including a before and after picture of my tummy tuck ( my new stomach ) read more

I had the most wonderful experience at imagine plastic surgery! DR. Hardesty is an amazing surgeon and human being. As a blacK/POC it is hard to find doctors and surgeons who listen and cater to you and take everything you have to say into consideration, I never felt more heard and SEEN than in this office. Hardesty has selected the most friendliest and hardworking team! I am currently 6 weeks post op BA and am looking PHENOMENAL. The entire process from the consultation up to post op was amazing! He even prayed with me before having surgery. I am so happy with who I chose to help this mama get her confidence back! read more

This is my second review for the office of Dr Robert Hardesty. This time I returned for some lip filler. Sometime in the last few years my upper lip had all but disappeared I was fortunate to get an appointment with Christina. She was extremely knowledgeable about the varied options for filler. We agreed to go very natural during the first visit. Virtually painless, Christina talked to me, informing me of exactly what she was doing. Everything went well and I even stayed under budget thanks to a special they were running. Believing I could use a little more I returned 4 weeks later for Christina to once again work her magic. I am so pleased with my results. I thought this might be my one and done but I'm already thinking of a touch up in January for an upcoming cruise. I can't end this without thanking the other wonderful and helpful front and back office ladies. I've never been to any office where the entire staff is always professional, happy, and helpful. Warmest Regards, Diana K. read more

I had a brest augmentation done in January, 2022 after years of wanting to get it done. I'm a young mom of 4 and after breastfeeding/pregnancies my breasts changed drastically, I hated them as much as I tried not to. I finally decided to just go for it, and started looking for a local surgeon. I came across Dr. Hardesty and Imagine Plastic Surgery through Google. I really liked the before and after photos and the website was very informative. I set up my online consultation after texting Elizabeth that day. During the consultation, the process was explained, my questions were answered, and that was it, I had my day for surgery set! It was much easier than I had anticipated, and stressed about it all of those years for nothing. I have anxiety, so I expected to be very anxious the day of my surgery. Surprisingly I wasn't, and I did not even need to take the anxiety medicine. I was so ready to finally do this for myself, I just felt at ease and trusted the Dr. (The welcoming nurses and staff helped me feel even more comfortable.) Everything went great, my healing was smooth and I did not have any complications. I am now four months post op and I am extremely happy I went through with my decision. I feel happy in my body again! I didn't make it to my 6 week post op appointment, but I just wanted to say a huge Thank you to Dr Hardesty! I appreciate what you do, especially for us mom's who just want to feel good about ourselves again. They look exactly how I wanted them to, it's amazing! read more

She is highly knowledgeable and makes the whole process easy. I recommend her to all of friends and family. read more

Words cannot express how grateful I am to Dr. Hardesty and his team. I had been dealing with the pain and suffering of having very large breasts for years, as well as an extremely unflattering waistline due to giving birth and getting older. So I made the decision to have a mommy makeover (Breast Reduction and Tummy Tuck) for my 50th birthday. I began researching to find the right surgeon; I went to a few consultations with other doctors and left feeling even more insecure about my body because of their cold and calloused demeanors. Then I came across Dr. Hardesty's website. I was intrigued and decided to book a consultation. After meeting with Dr. Hardesty one on one, I knew that he was the right surgeon for me. His kindness and deep passion for the work he does is what sealed the deal, and I scheduled my surgery without hesitation! My surgery went extremely well; the ROSI surgery team is truly top notch and there have been no post-op issues whatsoever. The Nursing staff at Imagine Plastic Surgery has been so helpful and accommodating, and they are always available to answer any questions. I LOVE my new body!! Dr. Hardesty did EXACTLY what I wanted and far exceeded my expectations. I'm 3 months post surgery and I have already lost 20 pounds. This investment into a better me was the best decision of my life, and I would absolutely recommend Dr. Hardesty to anyone looking for an extremely knowledgeable, highly skilled and personable surgeon. read more

I had a rhinoplasty 4 years ago from here, horrible experience. Not what I asked for at all,have been extremely disappointed for years. breathing is more difficult as well, from my experience would not recommend and unfortunately it's not an easy fix. An absolutely horrible surgeon. I wish I could give zero stars and hope everyone sees this and turns away. I'm left to find another surgeon and get another nose job to be able to fix this mess of a job he did. On top of that making it more difficult to breathe is ridiculous! 4 years later I had to leave a review. Would never recommend!! read more

If you are looking for the best look no further. The staff go above and beyond. Dr. Hardesty is skilled and determined to please his patients. If you want yo be treated as part of the family then look no further. I only wish I would have found sooner. Thank you for such a great outcome and for the wonderful care I have gotten. read more

Dr. Hardesty wants what is best for his patients. He takes time to explain in an easy to understand way the pros and cons of the cosmetic procedure. He is not driven by financial gain, moreover he is honest about the risks versus benefits/outcome for his patients, even if that means not doing the procedure. His Patient Liaison responds promptly is pleasant and understanding. Dr. Hardesty and I agreed the procedure I wanted may not garner the best results. I will keep him in mind for the future. read more

Procedure done: Breast Implant Removal, Total Capsulectomy and Breast Lift Here I am sharing my experience with Dr. Hardesty and staff: I called and spoke with Elizabeth (scheduler) to schedule my consult with Dr. Hardesty. She was very nice and friendly over the phone. She explained the expectations for my consultation and made me feel very at ease. My consultation was scheduled a month away but was placed on a waiting list and was seen sooner. After meeting Dr. Hardesty (virtually), I was impressed by the amount of information he provided me with. This was my 2nd surgeon consultation. He was very detailed on the process. Mind you, I was removing my implants due to weird symptoms I was experiencing related to BII. He was very supportive and wasn't shocked as to the reason. He made me feel very comfortable about my decision. After my consultation, I was able to schedule my surgery with Elizabeth right after. Surgery was about a month and a half later. The surgery center is right next to his office. On surgery day, I was very nervous and with mixed emotions. I met the anesthesiologist and Dr. Hardesty before entering the OR. Dr. Hardesty offered to say a quick prayer before surgery, which made me feel VERY at ease! Surgery was about 3 1/2 hours, it was longer than expected. The nurses there were super nice and attentive. My recovery was not easy! You need some help at home for the first week. The drains are no joke. I didn't have drains for my BA so I didn't expect for these to be an issue. They make recovery so much harder. And when they are removed, man, that's not fun. Besides all the complications, Dr. Hardesty was beside me all the time. All his patients have his cell phone number in case of an emergency, which I had to use on a weekend. He's very caring and kind. Thought-out my recovery, I had to visit his office in Riverside numerous times. From his front desk to his PA, they are all very friendly, kind and accommodating. His nurse, Narsel, is amazing. She's super energetic, uplifting, and knowledgeable. She made every visit enjoyable regarding the circumstances. Kelsey Sandoval, PA-C is very attentive and kind. It's been 6-weeks since surgery. The experience I had with Dr. Hardesty's office was incredible from scheduling my consult to my last appointment today. I can't thank them enough for taking care of me during some difficult times in my life. read more

I honestly cannot say enough great things about Dr. Hardesty and all of his staff from his PA, to his MA and to the nurses at the hospital! Dr. Hardesty is such a sweet man and genuinely listens to what exactly you want. Two months after my surgery, I am so happy with my results. He was able to achieve everything I asked for. A couple of my friends went to Hardesty as well and they love him too! Best plastic surgeon in IE..thank you Dr. Hardesty for your kind spirit and your skillful talent! read more

Dr. Hardesty is an amazing plastic surgeon. As I grew older and my nose changed , the discomfort from my deviated septum became more and more apparent. Over time the septum would grow to press on the left side of my nose , creating a tight space that would dry out , ulcerate and cause immense discomfort for me , daily. I ended up at one point going through my insurance to have an ENT doctor perform a Septoplasty to try to help relieve the deviation and discomfort. That operation failed , and the deviation of my septum ended up worse than before. After a time of healing , I searched far and wide , had multiple consultations with plastic surgeons around California in attempt to find a surgeon who could fix this problem of mine. Since Dr. Hardesty had done a rhino Septoplasty on a relative of mine years ( maybe a decade ago ) and it was a huge success , I decided to have Dr. Hardesty perform a rhinoseptoplasty to attempt to relieve the deviation of the septum and to straighten and contour my nose aesthetically. IM SO GLAD I DID! I have never experienced breathing this well in my life. The surgery was a huge success and I'm ecstatic. No more pain in my nose. No mire difficulty breathing. And a nose that looks extremely natural, well defined , and straight. If you're searching for an Amazing surgeon , Dr. Hardesty is your guy , I have full confidence in his abilities. read more

Dr. Hardesty performed my breast lift/implants & underarm lipo 1 year ago. I knew my breasts would change and settle so I waited to post this review. Most of the before/after pictures are from the 6 week post op appointment. So I don't know that they are all accurate. I wanted to give an honest review that would have been helpful for me to read when doing my own research. Our initial consultation was positive overall. I knew I wanted some lipo around my bra strap/back fat area and a breast lift after breastfeeding my 3 kids. I went in as a size 36D. I was very clear and adamant that I did not want to be bigger. Perkiness was my main goal but I didn't want to look fake and obvious. I knew that I'd have scarring from the lift and I was fine with that. As long as I could have the perkiness. I felt like Dr. Hardesty listened to all my concerns. He answered all my questions. His opinion is that in order to achieve upper pole fullness that I desired I would also need implants. I was fine with that. I brought pictures to my next appointment of desired looks and had tested out different implant sizes at home with the rice method. I felt like 300cc was the maximum size I'd be happy with. Dr. Hardesty came in and this appointment felt much quicker and a little rushed. He already had a size in mind for me. His recommendation was a full anchor lift with 420cc implants. I was in agreement about the full lift, but very nervous about the size. He assured me it was exactly what I wanted. After he left the room I texted a friend who is similar height/body structure and has implants (D+ cup size) and she only had 280cc's. I was concerned and felt very nervous about the size. I spoke with a nurse who agreed that seemed large for me, especially since my goal was not to be bigger than a D cup. I sat down with the office manager and she spoke with Dr. and we agreed to go down to 365cc (under the muscle) and still do the full anchor lift. The day of surgery came and it all went smoothly. I woke up and found out we finished over an hour early because Dr. Hardesty did not end up performing the full anchor lift. He said I ended up only needing a donut lift. No refund was offered for the difference in price (donut vs. anchor & less time in OR). But I didn't even think about it until a friend pointed it out to me recently. I never reached out to the office about it. I opted for the pain pump which worked great. Recovery wasn't fun, but it wasn't terrible, either. The worst part for me was trying to sleep on my back propped up and it was hard needing help for 6 weeks since you can't lift and have limited mobility. I have little kids so it was frustrating at times. But I kept in mind that it would be worth it. During recovery I had a direct number to Dr. Hardesty and felt like he and his office staff were very attentive. I broke out in a weird rash 1 week post op (we think it was a reaction to the anesthesia?) and they got me in right away and prescribed a steroid which cleared it up. I was overall happy at my 6 week post op appointment. They were perky but looked natural. I was now a 34DD. I felt like they were a little bigger than I wanted, but I didn't hate it. Dr. Hardesty asked how my experience was and I felt a little put on the spot. He asked me to write a review and post about it. While my breasts are better than pre-surgery (there is volume to push up vs. before) I'm disappointed. They've fallen significantly over the past year. I can feel the ripple in the bottom of the implants. I definitely need to wear a full support bra, or they will look low/saggy. Perkiness was my biggest goal and they are not. To be fair, Dr. Hardesty has a policy that if you aren't satisfied within the first year he will do a revision and only charge the cost of the OR and anesthesia. I have not reached out to him or his office and have no reason to believe they wouldn't have followed through on that policy. At this point spending more $$, going through another surgery and the 6 weeks of recovery seem to be more trouble than it's worth. Also, if he didn't give me what I wanted in the first place, I don't know that I want to give him another chance. So, overall- my breasts are not "botched" but after the amount of money spent and recovery time- I am disappointed. They are not what I was hoping for and already need a revision. I'm not disgruntled or angry over it- just trying to be honest read more

Please do not go under the knife with this doctor. After going to several board-certified plastic surgeon's with consults, Dr. Hardesty was both the most expensive and the one that seem to have the best plan. His confidence convinced me that he was the best. A year later, I've had to have a repair surgery with another doctor to fix the hatchet job that this doctor did on my body. Do not let this man operate on your body unless you want hideous scars, a very expensive initial surgery, and future repair surgeries to fix the work that he does. As a caveat, the extreme rudeness of his office manager every time I interacted with hershould have been a big red flag for me. Unfortunately, it was not. Update: already addressed my concerns and got nowhere other than another piece of paper with a lot of notes that were useless. read more

I instantly fell in love with Dr. Hardesty and the staff. I felt so comfortable from start to finish and Dr. Hardesty's suggestions were exactly what I had envisioned. He gave me very thorough details of the procedures i wanted. I found Dr. Hardesty through a couple friends who had breast augmentation and i immediately set up a consult because of their results. I ended up getting rhinoplasty surgery (which by the way is his favorite thing to do) lol and breast lift and augmentation. Surgery went amazing and I am so thrilled with my results! I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an expert surgeon who knows exactly what he's doing. read more

I had been contemplating Breast Augmentation for about 3 years before I finally committed. I did a consultation with Dr. Hardesty in 2018 and another one in 2021 after I realized he was the Doctor that I had felt most comfortable with. The entire experience was amazing, from front desk to the surgery center to the doctor himself! They made everything smooth sailing for me. I never felt pressured to do anything as I felt with other consultations. They are a patient orientated office. I was highly impressed with the surgery center because everyone involved with the process has been working with Dr. Hardesty since the beginning. That says a lot about the doctor and the company as whole. I would highly recommend going here for any cosmetic or surgery needs. read more

Dr. Hardesty and his team were beyond my expectations. I wanted a breast augmentation for a while but couldn't make up my mind (my consultations with other surgeons was horrible). Dr. Hardesty was very kind with an excellent bedside demeanor. His expertise, along with his fabulous team, made me feel confident to finally take that leap. Due to the pandemic, my initial consultation was virtual. He explained everything to me in detail. He also explained his suggestions but was never pushy with what decision I need to make. He actually said take your time and consult with your spouse and let him know at a later date. On the day of my surgery, he asked if he could pray with me and I was just beyond words. I have always been overjoyed when I saw doctors I work with pray with their patients. I was positive that I made the right decision to go with Dr. Hardesty. The aftercare was even beyond my expectations. Believe me, you will not be disappointed with Dr. Hardesty and his team. read more
