Every nurse was warm, kind and reassuring. The anesthesiologist immediately made me feel completely at ease, and Dr. Mowlds is simply in a league of his own. The level of care, professionalism and attention to detail from the entire team was top notch from beginning to end. I've been home for about four hours now, tucked in and settling into recovery, and I honestly couldn't be happier with how everything went. I felt incredibly well cared for every step of the way. If you're going to wake up at an ungodly hour and willingly undergo surgery, this is definitely the team you want waiting for you on the other side.

As a beginning, I want to be honest about everything that happened to me and share my full…read moreexperience. In January, I had a labiaplasty performed by Dr. Deborah Ekstrom, MD. After the surgery, she prescribed pain medication (Oxycodone HCl IR 5 mg capsules) for five days. During that time, I had severe constipation and had to go to the ER. On March 3, I went back for a follow-up appointment. During that visit, Dr. Ekstrom also injected hyaluronic acid filler into my labia majora, which cost $1,600. Before the procedure, I asked the doctor if there were any negative side effects and how long the results would last. She told me there were no negative side effects and that the results would last a long time. However, the same day I started feeling something hard, like a small stone. The next day I felt itching and noticed redness. Day by day it became worse. The redness increased, the itching continued, and the area started to look uneven -- the left side looked larger than the right. On March 11, I texted the office manager, Jo Cattell. She was very kind and asked if I wanted to come in that day to see the doctor. I said yes. When I saw Dr. Ekstrom, I first showed her pictures of the redness. She said the pictures looked worse than what she was seeing in person. She also said the redness and swelling might be caused by using an ice pack. However, I do not believe this is the cause. After my labiaplasty surgery, I used ice packs and never had this problem. The symptoms started the same day after the filler injection. I also explained that it hurts when I go to the bathroom. I asked if the filler could be removed, but she told me she could not treat the area right now because it looked like an allergic reaction and that further treatment would cost additional money. She prescribed medication for me to pick up at the pharmacy. I am sharing my full experience because I do not want this to happen to another patient. I work hard for my money, and I do not want to waste it on something that made me feel worse. I do like the results of my labiaplasty, but I do not like the filler injection. It looks uneven and has caused discomfort and illness. If a procedure cannot be done safely, it is better to be honest with patients. People trust their doctors, and I was one of those patients. For fairness, I want to mention that the clinic was very clean. The drive time for me was 1 hour and 40 minutes. Also, two weeks after the surgery I initially left a five-star review. My advice to others is not to write a review until you have had the full experience. Finally, I went to the ER again on March 14, 2026 because my labia majora became worse, with severe itching and swelling. I could not sleep because of the discomfort. Thank you for taking the time to read my experience. (bad experience.)

SO far post op the surgeries look mazing and i felt great after just a few days which is amazing since it was almost a 7 hour surgery.

I wouldn't wear any form fitting tops for the past six years. I met Dr. Savalia over the summer for consultation and his office was very accommodating to schedule me in late November due to some prior commitments. I love my breasts! They look pretty damn close to natural and I'm confident in wearing form fitting tops and even bathing suits. I love the work so much that I'm inspired to get back to my pre-cancer body and have been working out again once I was released. If you EVER need revision work, or even a first time augmentation, I highly recommend Dr. Savalia and his office staff. He was recommended to me by my breast surgeon who did my mastectomy and a friend who is also a BC survivor.

I had consultations with eight different doctors throughout Orange County, and he was the last one I met with. As soon as I had my consultation with him, I knew he was the one. He had the perfect balance of confidence and bedside manner that I was looking for. He was knowledgeable, honest, and self-assured without being dismissive or rushed. I felt completely comfortable and confident that he understood my goals and could achieve exactly what I wanted. In fact, I allowed him to pick my size and I couldn't be happier. To be honest, I was terrified of the pain and recovery. However, I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it actually was. I had my surgery on a Wednesday, and with the help of Dr. Savalia's pain management regimen and post-op guidance, I was already feeling significantly better by Friday. I didn't need anything, not even Tylenol,after Thursday night. By Monday I was having to stop myself from doing every day things because of how good I felt and back to normal. I truly believe this had everything to do with his surgical technique and extensive experience.

10/10 - Absolutely Obsessed with My Results! (8 Weeks post op)…read more I am beyond happy with my breast augmentation from Dr. K -- I'm literally obsessed! He did the most perfect job in my opinion, and I feel so sexy, feminine, and confident in my new bralette. I'm also so glad I didn't go too big. At first, I wanted 480cc's, but a week before surgery, Dr. K suggested we go with 450cc's for the most natural, flattering look. Best decision ever! We went under the muscle with gummy implants, and the results are flawless. From start to finish, Dr. K has been amazing. He answers every single question I have -- whether it's over text, FaceTime, or in person. If I want to stop by the office, he gets me in right away. His bedside manner is unmatched, and I've felt 100% comfortable and cared for every step of the way. I had a consultation with a "famous" Instagram surgeon before choosing Dr. K, and honestly, there's no comparison. Dr. K's skill, attention to detail, and genuine care for his patients are what really matter -- not Instagram followers. I've already told all my friends they need to go to him. My only regret is not doing this sooner! I'm also so glad I stayed local instead of going out of the country for a cheaper price. Being able to have in-person follow-ups with my surgeon has been invaluable for my healing process and peace of mind. If you're even thinking about getting a breast augmentation, do it -- and do it with Dr. K. I am so, so, so, so, so happy with my decision and I would recommend him a thousand times over.

Being 6 years post op, my updated review is overdue. I'd…read morelike to start by saying that the office staff was always very kind. 360 TUMMY TUCK: 7/10 For the most part, I am still very happy with the tummy tuck procedure. I did have a complicated recovery with necrosis of the belly button, but you would not be able to tell now. My scars are alright, I've definitely seen much better... but I tattooed over mine anyway so it didn't matter much to me. However, during the consultation I made it a huge point that there was a part of my lower back that I was very unhappy with. Dr K documented and explained that it would be lipo'd and he would excise it if necessary. I have a scar in the area, but it looks like it wasn't touched AT ALL. Definitely no lipo in the area, just a normal tummy tuck scar, but it doesn't go all the way under the area of concern. So it looks like he left it untouched. When I brought this up at my several post op appointments, he told me to wait a year. After a year, he brushed it off. I am now left with this incredibly awkward small lump right above my butt crack that has left me incredibly insecure. BREAST IMPLANTS AND NIPPLE LIFT: 1/10 I already had breast tissue (about a 36 C) but deflated after weight loss. I really wanted to fill them back up and make them perky again. Because of how deflated they were, I was expecting to get a breast lift, which other surgeons also mentioned to me. During the consultation, Dr K was very adamant that he would NOT do a lift, because I was in my early 20's. His reasoning was that they would need to be redone after I had kids... so I told him that I do not plan to have children. He told me that I might change my mind - which is absolutely NOT for him to decide or even have a say in. He told me he could do a nipple lift on my right side and it would make them look even and perky without the lift. I trusted him. My nipple is now OVAL ladies. OVAL. Completely mismatched. Extremely embarrassing. I also have had rippling, it feels like the implants are underfilled. I can literally crunch the bags and you can see it. When I lay down, they go to the side completely and my chest is flat. When I bend forward, they droop and look absolutely disgusting. I was also very concerned about the left breasts shifting so much to the side when I work out, that it completely deforms and pulls the bag. He told me "you can't work out your chest." This was a YEAR after surgery. He literally said I cannot work out, and that was the answer. Six years later and I have extremely heavy, sagging implants that are weighing my chest down. My nipples fall over the crease of my breast, and it's extremely uncomfortable and they've made me feel so embarrassed. I am now having to save money to get the lift that I should have gotten 6 years ago, and hoping that another doctor can fix my nipple and the underlying damage. I will never get these past 6 years back (and the next few years that I spend saving up.) So I hope this saves someone else.

It truly gave me my confidence back. Fast forward to 2026, I realized I didn't just want to feel good on the outside anymore. I wanted to feel good on the inside too. As I got older, I found myself constantly exhausted, struggling with brain fog, low libido, no motivation, and just feeling hopeless. As a business owner and a mom of two busy boys with sports and endless activities, I felt like I was running on empty every single day. I reached out to Dr. Sherry, and she truly listened. She took the time to understand what I was experiencing and created a personalized plan just for me. She started me on supplements that were tailored to my specific needs, along with NAD+ injections. I began everything immediately, and within just a few days I noticed an incredible difference. I started this journey in February 2026, and now, in August, I can honestly say I feel like a completely different person. I wake up every morning with natural energy, a clear mind, and the motivation to tackle my day. My focus has improved tremendously, my brain fog is gone, and I no longer rely on multiple sources of caffeine just to make it through the day. My libido has also significantly improved, which has been life changing. More recently, I started Reta under Dr. Sherry's guidance to help me reach my personal weight goals. I felt great on it from the beginning. The only side effect I experienced was feeling a little tired the first day, but after that I was back to normal and have continued feeling my best. The key is staying consistent with the supplements every day. Dr. Sherry emphasizes how important it is to "stack" them and trust the process, and she is absolutely right. What I appreciate most about Dr. Sherry is how passionate she is about women's health. She is constantly educating and encouraging women through her social media, reminding us that taking care of ourselves isn't selfish. It's necessary. So many women don't realize how much our bodies change as we age or how much better we can actually feel with the right support. I am 35 years old, and I honestly feel better now than I did in my 20s. I've had the privilege of working with both Dr. Sherry and Dr. Sean Kalashadi, and I can genuinely say they make you feel like family instead of just another patient. They truly care about every person who walks through their doors, and that level of compassion is hard to find. Thank you both for helping me become the healthiest, happiest version of myself. I highly recommend SSK! -Brittney S.

Typically, you're advised to meet with multiple surgeons before making a decision since surgery is a serious commitment, but Dr. K was actually the first and only consultation I did. I immediately felt comfortable with him and his staff right off the bat. Everyone was warm, professional, and genuinely attentive. Dr. Kelishadi took the time to thoroughly evaluate my anatomy and recommended the Preservé technique with Motiva implants. He explained that I had natural asymmetry and suggested two different implant profiles (demi and full) with a 65cc difference to create better balance. I truly appreciated his honest, thoughtful approach and I am so glad I trusted his expertise because I am very happy with my results. One of my biggest hesitations about breast augmentation was fear of going under general anesthesia. The Preservé technique itself is incredible because it uses IV sedation and local anesthesia instead, and the downtime was only a few days. Knowing that Dr. Kelishadi is one of the first plastic surgeons in the United States able to offer this advanced technique made me feel even more confident in my decision. His wife, Dr. Sherry, who is the pharmacist, was also wonderful. Their non-narcotic pain protocol was amazing. Avoiding nausea and grogginess was very important to me, and they completely delivered on that promise. The practice is extremely organized and thoughtful -- they even provided all medications in advance along with a duffle bag, scar gel, a recovery journal, and a cute pink velour outfit set for surgery day. These details made the experience feel very supported and personalized. Valerie at the front office is incredibly helpful and responsive, Kendal the nurse is kind and reassuring, and Brianna the surgical assistant made me feel calm and cared for throughout the process. Even at my 1-month follow-up appointment, Dr. Kelishadi and the team treated me with the same level of hospitality and respect as day one. You can truly tell they care deeply about their craft and about their patients' outcomes. Overall, this has been a wonderful experience from start to finish. If you are considering breast augmentation, I highly recommend scheduling a consultation with Dr. Kelishadi. He is truly an artist, and he has an exceptional team behind him who make the entire journey feel safe, thoughtful, and seamless. I am so grateful I trusted them with such an important decision and would confidently recommend their practice to anyone looking for natural, beautiful results and a genuinely caring surgical experience.
