I am beyond pleased with the result of my nonincisional / suture double eyelid surgery with Dr…read more Charles Kim. I am 45 years old with thin eyelid skin and mild-to-medium skin laxity. I used to be able to "draw in" eyefolds with sharp eyebrow scissors and keep those folds throughout the day with hard blinks, but as I got older, it became harder and harder to keep the fold, even with glue. At my consultation, Dr. Kim immediately started using his crease tool on my eyelids to try out different crease heights, making observations about my eye shape and differences in skin laxity between my eyes. Dr. Kim was the fifth surgeon I consulted with in LA and I chose him because I felt that he truly listened to me, is very patient, and has a good aesthetic eye. Right before the surgery, he spent a long time marking and remarking my eyelids until I was satisfied. During the procedure, Dr. Kim had the most delicate touch when administering local anesthesia. I was really nervous about what it would feel like to have needles going into my eyelids, but I barely felt a thing and that part was over in seconds. I was pleasantly surprised when he took the safety measure of slipping corneal eye shields on my eyeballs to protect them (zero discomfort), and asked me to open my eyes throughout the procedure to check on his work (just as they do in Korea). We ultimately decided to do slightly different crease heights on my eyes to address the saggier skin on the left one. My first week of recovery was such an emotional roller coaster because the left eye looked like a mountain compared to the right eye, but by the end of week two, 80% of the swelling was gone and both eyelids had settled nicely. Now, almost three months out, my eyefolds are amazingly symmetrical and are EXACTLY what I asked for. I had realistic but VERY specific expectations going in, and Dr. Kim delivered on creating the natural tapered eyefolds I asked for. Nobody can tell I had anything done. I still look like myself, but my eyes are more open and refreshed! Thank you so much, Dr. Kim!

I received the utmost care and to top it off, the results of my procedure were beautiful and amazing!! I am so pleased! I look natural, younger and refreshed. I trust Dr. Kim implicitly. I have always been nervous to have cosmetic procedures done, and have been getting Botox and fillers for quite some time. Dr. Kim has made recommendations and after allowing him to not only do my facelift, he also recommended a little botox and some Juvederm for my lips. I was SO WORRIED that I would have duck lips and end up looking plastic as so many women do these days after having cosmetic procedures done. But NO! My results look so natural, I am so happy and I receive compliments all the time. I am 63 but I don't feel like it. I am an active person. Now I have a face that matches my energy level. I also have more confidence because I feel so good and love the way my procedure turned out. I have been to a lot of different doctors for cosmetic procedures and treatments to care for my skin. Dr. Charles Kim is absolutely THE BEST!

I went in person on a Saturday 2/1/20 to pay for it with my credit card. There was a young bilingual korean man (in his 30s) who took care of it. He gave me a small printed receipt not a formal one. I get another statement a few months later (the same bill) saying "2nd statement, please pay bill". I call the office during the week to talk to the billing person. I speak with an older lady and tell her that I've already paid this and I can show her my bank statement but I unfortunately do not have the receipt. I said I can come to the office and show it to her or email her, She said that's ok. She said the reason it wasn't recorded was because it was a Saturday and the billing person is not there Saturday and the young man did not record it correctly. Now 9 months later, I get another bill saying "3rd (last) statement. Please, make a payment." I don't really think they're trying get more money from me than necessary but this shows a lack of organization and unnecessary trouble for their issue with bookkeeping. Below is my bank statement. Now stop bothering me. As much as Dr. Ed is a great MD, I won't come again. If you're going to pay, never pay on a Saturday.

Review for Breast Augment, Koreatown location: I've waited a moment to post this review because I…read morewanted to be sure to accurately reflect on my experience here. I'm three weeks post-op from my breast augmentation performed by Dr. Kahng, scheduled and coordinated by the lovely Maritza, and cared for by a darling staff of nurses. I chose him because of his work on body types similar to mine, I am lean and athletic with very minimal breast tissue and have a long narrow torso. One detail that stood out to me was that I saw that he takes great care of nipple placement, which was important to me because I saw many other surgeons' works with disregard for that aesthetic. After seven months of research, I went to two consultations. I picked Dr. Kahng after careful reflection for his candor and demeanor during my consult. Maritza was in the room with me, which made me feel safe and comforted meeting with and undressing in front of the doctor (Yes, I know it's his job, but I'm a 24yo and can feel nervous alone with men... it felt like having a mom in the room with me when I was a child getting a checkup... I liked that feeling). The nurses have been a pleasure. I've come for four early mornings and they've all greeted me heartily with smiles and laughter. I've contended with anxiety all my life but they put me at such ease every time I see them for check ups-- thank you. In previous consults, when I asked about breastfeeding, possible complications, closing the gap in my visible sternum- I was given enthusiastic yeses! Everything is possible! Nothing can go wrong! But Dr. Kahng had a more reliable and sophisticated demeanor. He was down to earth, but never hesitated to tell me an answer I might not want to hear. His honesty was appreciated far more than any people-pleasing enthusiasm. I actually saw a negative review about his attitude but... it made me want to choose him because I knew he would be honest and direct with me. My augmentation went through smoothly, I did ask for the biggest size my body could fit (350cc) and he told me it might not be possible- but that he would try. He succeeded. I would say the pain was difficult at first, the tightness and stretching, the one hour car-ride home (and back for checkups the first week) But I got through it, and I'm beyond ecstatic about my result. The healing has gone very well, and I was warned amply about potential complications and risks, but I've felt well-cared for and monitored closely by the team at Cara. I have no doubt at all in my mind that I picked the right surgeon for my breast augmentation. And I'm filled with gratitude for the support I've received from the staff.

I have undergone revision surgery three times, and it has been five years since I began living with…read morethe results of my fourth surgery. The surgery utilized silicone and rib cartilage, but I believe the biggest problem was that the silicone was placed too high, exceeding the height my nose could handle. After the surgery, unable to bear it any longer, I briefly smoked an e-cigarette a few times on two occasions; the hospital explained that the rib cartilage had collapsed due to the nicotine. About two months after the first surgery, my nose completely collapsed. They performed an urgent revision surgery and rebuilt it. A year later, although it hadn't completely collapsed, my nose had sunk too low, so I underwent a second revision surgery. At the time, the sight of my completely collapsed nose gave me such severe trauma that I became terrified and avoided e-cigarettes and nicotine altogether. Ironically, thanks to this incident, I quit smoking for the rest of my life. In any case, as time passed, the rib cartilage was absorbed much more than expected, causing the tip of my nose to sink significantly once again, even more than the silicone. The hospital suggested that it might be due to the nicotine remaining in my body, but honestly, it was difficult to accept that they continued to attribute the cause to nicotine even after a considerable amount of time had passed. Ultimately, similar results occurred during both the second and third surgeries as the rib cartilage was reabsorbed. When I underwent my fourth revision surgery, they said they would perform the final procedure if I signed a document stating that the hospital would no longer be held responsible for the outcome. Since my nose had already collapsed significantly at the time, I felt I had no other choice, so I signed and proceeded with the surgery. Although the result is better than before, my nose still looks crooked. Even though it has been several years since I stopped smoking, my nose, having undergone four revision surgeries, still looks unsightly; at this point, it is safe to say that it is clearly unrelated to nicotine. During the fourth surgery, I also asked if the silicone could be lowered slightly, as it seemed too high relative to my nose. However, the hospital stated that doing so would require removing the silicone entirely. As someone who had already undergone rhinoplasty, I did not want the silicone completely removed, so I proceeded with the revision surgery as is. However, after researching various sources later, it appeared that the height and angle of the silicone were somewhat too much for my nose from the start. I also learned that there was an option to adjust the shape by refining it without completely removing the silicone. Although it hasn't completely collapsed yet, I ended up with a hooked nose after paying a high price for the surgery. The hospital performed revision surgery three times, but since I couldn't work, I had to fly from Atlanta every time I visited, losing my income for a week. I had to cover all the costs myself--airfare, hotel fees, and food--during my time off. Even though I didn't pay for the revision surgery itself, the need to make four separate visits while losing a week of work was a significant financial burden. Now, I feel that undergoing further revision surgery might actually place an even greater burden on my nasal tissue. It is painful to look in the mirror at the current result, but considering the risks and burdens of additional surgery, I think accepting my current condition and living with it is the most realistic choice. The photo shown is from today, which is at least better than when it collapsed before. Every time I had to wait a year for my nasal tissues to heal before undergoing revision surgery, I had to look at my collapsed nose. The anxiety of waiting and the entire process of wondering if it would work this time, along with the sight of my nose collapsing again after each surgery--all of this was such a huge trauma that I was in agony looking at myself for the entire five years. I know I will continue to be in agony in the future.
