I underwent a combination of a facelift, fat grafting, a lip lift, and upper/lower blepharoplasty…read morewith Dr. Karam in September 2023. Unfortunately, I am deeply unhappy with the results and the total lack of accountability regarding my concerns. My cheeks are noticeably uneven; one side remains significantly larger than the other. Now that over two years have passed since my procedure, I have developed deep irregularities (uneven and lumpy texture) across my cheeks and under my eyes. Instead of a smooth transition, the texture is uneven and looks unnatural. The lip lift left a very prominent and obvious scar underneath my nose. It is not the hidden or discreet result I was led to believe. Despite the facelift, I have an excessive amount of wrinkles around my neck, chin, and mouth area. As time goes on, the hollows and unevenness are becoming more pronounced rather than settling. The cost of these procedures was incredibly high. I feel that the premium prices patients pay are for his massive marketing and social media production, not for superior surgical skill. For the amount of money spent, one expects precision and personalized care, neither of which I received. When I met with Dr. Karam via Zoom four months post-op to express my dissatisfaction, he was dismissive. He refused to guarantee any revision work to correct these clear issues. It is now clear that this is a mass production practice where the focus is on bringing in new clients through polished social media photos rather than ensuring the long-term quality of the work. I deeply regret my decision. I am now forced to seek out another surgeon to perform an expensive revision to fix the damage. Please do your research beyond social media before choosing this clinic.

And then when I met with Dr. Rossi he was just as nice. So honest about everything but in a very comfortable way. I never had a single moment of feeling out of place or uncomfortable in my own skin.

I debated for a long time whether to leave this review, but ultimately I feel that people…read moreconsidering this practice should hear about my experience. A little over two years ago, I underwent several procedures here, including a deep plane facelift, rhinoplasty, neck lift, liposuction, and earlobe reduction. Unfortunately, my results were far from satisfactory. I ended up with multiple complications and cosmetic issues. I have a visible hollowing/depression along my lower face that is especially noticeable when I smile. My jawline contour is uneven rather than smooth and straight. My nose actually appears more crooked than before surgery, remains quite bulbous, and the breathing issues I hoped to correct were never resolved. I also developed pixie ear deformity after the facelift. The emotional impact of these results was significant. To make matters more confusing, the surgeon who performed my surgery later disappeared from the practice. I was never given a clear explanation as to whether he left or was no longer employed there. The practice did offer some corrective procedures. A fat transfer was performed to address the hollow area in my face, but the fat did not survive, so the defect remains. They also repaired the pixie ear, but I was left with a noticeable scar beneath the ear. For the remaining issues, I was essentially told that I would need to undergo additional surgery and pay for it myself. More than two years later, I still have breathing problems, persistent tightness in my neck, an uneven jawline, and cosmetic concerns that were never resolved. After everything I have been through, this experience has been deeply disappointing, and I would not recommend this practice to anyone.

For the amount of money paid your result should be much better than they are. First red flag was the in person consultation the day before surgery- maybe 5 minutes. He didn't even seem to know my case. I was extremely concerned but my concerns were quickly dismissed by his staff. One of his nurses actually said to me "Bless your heart"! Wow, just wow! We all know what that means sweety. I have a double scar under my chin where he made two cuts (yes I have pictures) and has caused a double bubble under my chin. It was noticeable within a few months. his recovery nurse was amazing but quit within months of my recovery. In the beginning he said lasers would take care of the mistakes ( but never offered them himself). I was having a difficult recovery I called and emailed multiple times and was finally told Dr Karam was not available to talk to me. His emails also will disappear on his response for his protection so be aware. You will be dismissed, left to try and correct his huge mistakes. My eyelids still had extra skin which will require another lid surgery, he did offer to re-do them early on but after a year of ignored calls I will never let this man touch my face again. He would not allow any kind of red light for healing or oxygen chamber.. very standard with most plastic surgeons. All natural healing is what he promotes, it's just bullshit. No lasers will correct the deep scars and scar tissue he left. It's been 2 years and I still can't feel the sides of my face and under my chin. Find someone else! There are many more professional and skilled surgeons available.

This review has been a long time coming. Years ago, I found Dr. Sherman and thought I did my…read moreresearch to find a Board Certified surgeon. He was certified, but only after all the damage was done to my face, I found out he was NOT a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon; he was an ENT (ear, nose and throat) doctor! I was quite self conscious of my acne scars, so he recommended a TCA peel and stated they would get rid of over 50% of my deep scarring. I trusted his expertise and got the procedure. I was left awake with no anesthetic whatsoever, and he blew a fan on one side of my face, while applying the 30% acid on my face over 7 times. It was like someone poured gasoline on my face, lit a match and left me to burn alive. My eyes started automatically crying from the pain, as the tears flowed down my face. Dr. Sherman very coldly told me in a loud voice, "stop crying, we can't have your tears in the solution." I told him I was not crying, but my body was automatically tearing and I could not stop it, and that it was excruciatingly painful. The nurse said, "I told you, doctor, this is too painful. We need to put patients under for this." (I never forgot that.) I was wheeled out in a wheelchair by a nurse and went home, and within 2 days, I knew something was very wrong. I called their office, but Dr. Sherman said, "it's normal; it will look bad for a while, but you are fine." I had just gotten married and did this right after my honeymoon, and my husband at the time said after 5 days, "I have to get out of here, the smell is so bad, and I am worried your face isn't going to look normal again." I honestly didn't blame him, because the smell of dead skin on my face was unbearable to smell, and I looked even worse. I had dead, gangrene skin hanging from the left-hand side of my face, the side the fan blew on, but my forehead was 100% healed. I called Dr. Sherman's office again and insisted he see me, even though he said some areas take more time to heal than others. I literally looked like Freddy Krueger, and we had to drive to his office while I hid in the car. The second he saw me, he immediately raised his voice and started scolding me and said, "Aren't you taking the antibiotics you were given?!" I replied and said, "No one gave me any antibiotics." My husband then confirmed this to be true. He went into another room, and within 2 minutes came in and said, "Here, take this." He said the nurse was supposed to give me antibiotics. (Apparently, they forgot...at my expense in many ways!) Since that procedure years ago, I have spent well over $25,000 trying to fix the permanent, deep pigment damage to my face and acne scars (not one acne scar went away from this procedure). I have an area on the side of my chin that has very old-looking skin from the deep infection. I recently just spent $7,000 on a Total FX laser procedure, and it didn't help where the infection caused such deep damage. A $600 TCA peel has caused thousands to correct, and years of more self esteem issues. I went back to Dr. Sherman a few years later to show him the damage and he literally had the audacity to say, "I would never have recommended a TCA peel to correct acne scars. What do you want, your money back? I'm not giving you your money back." I was dumbfounded. I didn't want my $600 back! I wanted to show him what he had done to me. He acknowledged NOTHING. And now he said (and I have a witness) that he never even recommended the TCA peel to begin with! Then I started doing my research and found he was Board Certified, but he JUST started getting into doing cosmetic procedures and had no experience at all! This man is a cold-hearted monster. He only cares about making money, and he does not stand by his work or his patients results if someone makes a mistake...like failing to give me ANY antibiotics so I don't get an infection. Given social media today, I felt I owed it to the many people who might go to this person and warn them, he is not what he appears to be. Buyer beware! I will live with severe pigment damage, where my face looks like someone drew brown around it and nothing covers it up, for the rest of my life. No procedure in all these years can fix it. I would never recommend this man to anyone for any reason. I am not hiding behind an anonymous name so you know this is 100% legitimate. Thank you. Note to Dr. Sherman: I find it disgusting and appalling that you do not remember doing my TCA peel and my husbands liposuction! One of his nipples was inverted and your nurse never gave me antibiotics, and my husband sat in the room with me when you recommended the TCA peel, saying a few of them would reduce my scarring by 50%. You were only an ENT as well and had no plastic surgery board certification. I even went back to you years afterward and you were rude and could care less about the lifetime of damage I have suffered due to you and your staff's negligence. How on EARTH do you forget about patients you've damaged?

A friend of mine recommended Dr. Chasan, since my insurance could not do the surgery for another couple months. Once I stepped in Ranch and Coast, Dr. C explained his approach, I canceled with the other doctor, even though my insurance was going to pay for a large portion. Dr. C spent quite a while with me, answered all of my questions. I always feel like once you get in front of a Dr they make you rush, you end up, leaving with more questions and then answers. That was not the case at Ranch and Coast! I immediately felt a huge relief, and knew it was going to be a great outcome. Jennifer, from the surgery scheduling department really made me feel comfortable. And made the process extremely easy. I was dealing with two ruptured silicone implants from a previous surgeon, and was dealing with a lot of pain and infection. So getting me booked ASAP was a huge part of this as well. I was booked for surgery within 10 days of my consult, which was amazing! I was up and feeling great the next day, and they were already looking perfect! Dr Chasan minimized my previous scars, and did not require making it anymore. That was another reason I chose not to go to the other surgeon. It's been exactly 11 days since my surgery, I am so unbelievably happy! Not only am I feeling so much better from the removal of ruptured silicone, but they look so great. Love the cleavage and the way Doctor Chasan does breast surgery. I would highly recommend, and I already have. Two of my girlfriends are in the process of scheduling consults, after seeing how great mine look! I can confidently say he's one of the best surgeons in San Diego!

I had a rhinoplasty with Dr. Chasan in January 2024 after researching surgeons for nearly a year. I…read morefound him on Reddit and was initially drawn to his specialization in the "Barbie-style" nose, which is surprisingly hard to find in the U.S. He also had overwhelmingly positive reviews, and I couldn't find any meaningful negative feedback, which gave me a lot of confidence. Since I'm not local, most communication was done by phone and email. His staff was initially very responsive and helpful, and my consultation, though brief, felt aligned. Based on that, I scheduled surgery the same day. Things started to feel off at my in-person pre-op appointment the day before surgery. I expected to meet Dr. Chasan for the first time, but instead was seen only by a nurse who seemed disengaged. The appointment consisted of photos and basic instructions. When I asked if I could meet the doctor, I was told he was unavailable. This made me uneasy, but with surgery the next day and already paid for, I felt I had no choice but to move forward. The morning of surgery, I was brought back and expected to proceed without seeing the surgeon. I had to specifically ask to meet with him before anything began. That conversation was brief but reassuring. We aligned on the aesthetic goals, which gave me some relief. The surgery itself went smoothly, and Dr. Chasan did call me the evening after surgery to check in. I am overall satisfied with my result. However, I do have a slight inverted V, which is concerning, as I worry it may worsen over time and potentially require correction in the future. I'm hopeful that being two years out it won't worsen, however I haven't been given the opportunity to speak with Dr. Chasan to ask about this. Unfortunately, the post-operative care is where my experience completely broke down. I had a scheduled post-op phone appointment with Dr. Chasan that he never attended- he never called. When I reached out to the office, I was not connected with him and was instead put on the phone with a nurse. I never actually spoke with the surgeon. I later followed up via email and was told that I was the one who failed to follow up, which was simply not true. After correcting this, the staff member apologized. Despite that, I have still never heard from Dr. Chasan again. For a procedure as significant as rhinoplasty, the lack of follow-up and accountability was extremely disappointing. While I am generally happy with my result, the absence of proper post-operative care and communication is something I cannot overlook.
