    After

    My husband was referred to Dr. Bermudez by his orthopedic surgeon. after he developed a cystoma at the incision site after back surgery. Dr. Bermudez was incredibly kind and patient . He treated him methodically and did not jump into surgery. He saw him weekly a few times hoping it would resolve with minimal intervention which we appreciated. But, he did end up doing a procedure and the procedure was smooth and the drain he placed did its job well. The area has healed well and is smooth and causes me no further trouble. Post Op care was also meticulous. He felt very well looked after. We would highly recommend Dr. Bermudez and his staff for your plastic surgery needs.

    I have had Dr. Bermudez do a few procedures on me in the past, but after my recent facelift experience, I will not be seeing him again. Dr. B. has a reputation for being conservative in his approach, which can be fine as you don't want to look overdone (i.e. like you permanently have a too-tight ponytail). But after spending in excess of $20k on my facelift, not only did it not look like I never had a facelift, I now had a head full of scars. His facelift approach was so conservative that, after healing, neither friends nor I could not tell the difference. Isn't the whole idea of a facelift that you're left with obvious improvement? I had specifically asked to have my naso-labial and marionette lines reduced, my jowls tightened so they would no longer be droopy, and my double chin reduced. Now I still have the lines, my jowls are not only still droopy but now they are uneven, and there was minimal difference to the "double chin" area. Additionally, in describing the surgery to me he never mentioned I would have a scar under my chin. But after my bandages came off I was horrified to discover there was a 1.5-2" scar there, and the sutures were not the nice, neat ones I would have expected from a cosmetic surgery; there were just a few widely-spaced sutures that left the skin puckered. The scar healed that way, and now almost 1.5 years later, the scar is still puckered and stands proud of the skin in such a way that it is visible when looking at me head on. (See photo.) When I saw Dr. B. in person and expressed my concerns he was dismissive of them. He stated he saw improvement in my face so as far as he was concerned, the surgery was successful. When I complained that he never told me about the under-chin incision he said I must have forgotten. (I myself am a medical professional and I would have remembered about something as significant as an additional facial scar.) When I complained about the very obvious chin scar, he stated (as he was standing above me while I was seated) that he could not see it. I feel that the facelift surgery he performed on me was a complete waste of a large amount of money, and his dismissive attitude towards my concerns means I will neither go back to him nor recommend him to any of my friends.

    I am hesitant to write this review as I myself am a small business owner and value others in the same position. However, I feel it is important to share my experience with Dr. Bermudez, whom I hired to perform my 360 lipo, arms lipo, and fat transfer to my buttocks in November 2022, based on his positive reviews. Unfortunately, I missed one review with a one-star rating, and I ended up with a BOTCHED surgery. As a result, I have indentations on my stomach due to the garment and foam provided by his office, and it is not evident that I underwent lipo. See attached photos. As a gesture of good faith, Dr. Bermudez offered to perform a tummy tuck, but I would have to pay for the hospitalization. However, after consulting with several other plastic surgeons, I was advised against this as I didn't have enough excess skin to stretch, and a noticeable scar would be left behind. Furthermore, the recovery process would be much longer. The plastic surgeons who reviewed the operative report noted that not much fat was removed from the liposuction. Dr. Bermudez lacks compassion, he does not care about his patients and has a condescending and hot-tempered personality. Patients do not have access to him directly, and he never checks in on them. He simply takes your money and leaves you on your own. His staff is friendly but disorganized, and the instructions provided are confusing.

After three previous…read morerhinoplasties and dealing with my overly crooked nose and deviated septum, I expected him to tell me--like other plastic surgeons had over the years--to leave my flawed nose alone. To my surprise, after his assistant took pictures from all angles and he examined my nose, he said he could help me and that I was a good candidate! Two months ago, I underwent revision rhinoplasty with Dr. Kim, and I'm extremely happy with the results. He guided me every step of the way regarding what to expect from the surgery. Firstly, he informed me that my nose would be swollen and appear "big" for several months and that it might take up to 1-2 years to settle into its expected shape. He also mentioned that some asymmetry would remain, but that it would be significantly improved. Even while still swollen, I can see a huge improvement, and I've already received compliments from three friends about my new nose. I can breathe better now and have less sinus discharge. Most importantly, I no longer feel self-conscious about my nose. Each day, it seems to be getting a bit smaller, which is exciting. The renditions he provided of what my new nose would look like closely match how my nose appeared right after surgery before the swelling began. I would recommend Dr. Kim to anyone unhappy with their nose. I only wish I had found him sooner.

    For context, I received 3cc facial Renuva injections in Beverly Hills two years ago but that…read moresurgeon didn't numb my face and those injections were more painful than actual surgery. Fast forward to this year, I read that Dr. Rajagopal was the number one Renuva provider in the country and her website stated that numbing cream was used. I was terrified of more pain but hopeful that this experience would be less painful. At this office, numbing cream was literally applied to my face for 30 minutes and then ice was applied afterwards. Although the injections were still painful, they were much more tolerable. Dr. Rajagopal has a gentle hand, a kind demeanor, and good aesthetic sense. I've seen four other different plastic surgeons but Dr. Rajagopal has given me the most faith in doctors. I wish that I had known about her earlier. I would definitely come here for Renuva injections or other treatments as needed. They are not inexpensive at 2500 for 3 cc. Dr. Rajagopal clearly cares about people and their comfort. This is very important as any surgery or injection is a stressful experience so bedside manners and genuine concern is priceless. The only odd thing was that I was presented the bill during numbing by a staff member. Payment is expected after treatment and I knew the cost beforehand so it was strange to get the bill during the middle of the procedure and then after the procedure again. I would have been happy to pay in advance if they are worried about people leaving without paying. In any case, the office staff was nice. There was easy and free private parking provided. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Rajagopal for her keen aesthetic eye and caring demeanor.

She spent a full hour with me, not just discussing surgical goals, but really getting to know me - my life, my family, and what I was hoping for. I left that appointment genuinely moved. She and her team made me feel seen, supported, and completely at ease. It was a stark contrast to other consultations that felt rushed and impersonal, like I was just another patient on the schedule.

Dr. Horton is warm, approachable, and truly invested in her patients' happiness and outcomes. I'm absolutely thrilled with my results, and honestly, my only regret is not doing this sooner.

From the beginning after surgery, I noticed serious issues. One breast sits higher and is larger than the other, and I was told it would settle, but it never did. My nipples are now significantly larger due to over-stretching and are positioned so high that I cannot comfortably wear many normal tops or swimsuits. I also have permanent nerve damage. I have 0 sensation, and my scarring is uneven and extensive. When I brought my concerns to her, I was told by Karen I would need a revision, which was incredibly upsetting in itself. However, what was even more disheartening was the lack of care or follow-up afterward. The only communication I received from the office consisted of impersonal emails asking me to vote for Dr. Horton for "Best Of" awards or to leave a positive review, rather than any genuine concern for what I was going through. Before writing this, I sought out three separate consultations with other board-certified surgeons. All three confirmed the same thing: the work was poorly done, my breasts were completely botched, and I would require a full revision. I have since had my revision surgery with an amazing surgeon who did the absolute best he could to correct everything Karen had done to me. Unfortunately, much of the damage from my surgery with Karen is irreversible, and I'll forever have to live with a lot of the damage she did to me. Not to mention, Karen did not want to release my surgical records to my new surgeon so he could perform my revision. He had to personally contact her so we could finally get the paperwork. Once the paperwork was provided, we were surprised to see that Karen had self documented a diagnosis of body dysmorphia in my records, despite never having been diagnosed with that condition by a mental health professional. I actually love my body but wanted to make improvements to my breasts after having a child. Do not be swayed by awards, presentation, or the impression given during consultations and pre-operative appointments. I spent over $38k on this surgery with Karen to be absolutely botched. I don't believe she should be practicing at all after what she has done to my body and everything I have heard from many, many other surgeons after they saw my breasts and after my revision surgery as well. I would never want anyone else to go through what I have experienced. If anyone is considering this surgeon and has questions or wants to understand more about what went wrong, I am more than willing to share more of my experience. Hannahsorn@gmail.com

She was genuinely compassionate while also being honest about what she thought would be most effective for addressing my concerns. The value of being able to stand, undressed, with a new person, and to talk with them about your body is such an intimate act - and Dr. Xu handled this with me with expertise and grace. She validated my progress and was encouraging about future potential. Dr. Xu was professional and caring in every encounter. The office staff is welcoming and encouraging and humorous. The space is lovely and feels comfortable. The most wonderful thing is ... the outcome of the surgery, the contouring specifically is truly beautiful. I feel like I have my own natural arm shape and it feels freeing and makes me so happy. Surgery comes with scars and they are a trade off for me. I love my arms so much, even with the scars, which are still young and will heal and fade further. Scar tape works incredibly well and is a very low cost resource I highly recommend. For me, Dr. Xu's personality, her skill set, and her eye for esthetics are simply incredible. It is also clear that the office team is trying to provide an experience for their clients to feel welcomed, held, cared about, and supported throughout the process, including into recovery. One thing I would prepare others for who are considering this option is that the surgery center and anesthesiologist were an expensive part of the overall package. While I trust and feel confident with Dr. Xu, there are other people who also support the surgery. The anesthesiologist was trying to put an iv in my foot, which was painful, before Dr. Xu arrived and advised him to put me under first. That seems like something the anesthesiologist, with all his years of experience, should have known to do himself. The surgery itself went beyond the estimated time and both the surgery center and anesthesiologist had additional fees, increasing the overall cost by ~2k. With that said, I do highly recommend Dr. Xu to others. Go meet her and her team and hear her thoughts and see if what she can offer will meet your needs.
