The care, quality, and friendliness at this establishment is amazing! Dr. Chung and the rest of her staff/coworkers were consistently informative, willing to go through each step to the point where I even ran over my appointment time due to my questions, and always kind from the free consult to the actual surgery. 10/10 would recommend! read more

Got filler in my lips and they turned out amazing! I told her I didn't want them really big just definitely more full. She did exactly what I asked for and I couldn't be more happy! read more

I got my lip filler from Dr. Chung two weeks ago. I told her that my lower lip, on the right side was slightly fuller than my left side and it looked imbalance so I requested to put more filler on the left side to make it more balance. But as it turned out, after it was injected, the left side of the lower lip is still thinner than the right side (non symmetrical). On top of that, I also noticed on the next day my upper lip had filler migration and it was so obvious so I went back two days later to have the whole filler on upper lip dissolved. I am disappointed. I paid $775.00 for this. I learned just because a lip injector is an MD does not mean she/he does a better job that an ARNP when it comes to this type of work. I have had lip filler procedures on my lips more three times in the past and it was always done by an ARNP and I always had great results. read more

I have waited 10+years for boobs... Dr. Chung literally Changed my life. I've never felt confident about my body, I've always had a small chest and i never fit in clothes right. I lived in sweatshirts growing up because everyone made fun of me in school. Surgery was a breeze, every single nurse in that office is amazing and friendly. I have nothing bad to say about them in fact i referred my old neighbor to them and she got some work done too! Definitely 5 stars. Dr. Chung makes sure you're comfortable, this was my first surgery ever and i wasn't scared one bit. I now have the boobs I've always wanted and bra & Clothes shopping doesn't make me want to sit in a corner and cry my eyes out anymore! read more

See all

I received a referral to Dr. Kierney's office for a breast reduction from my primary doctor. Dr. Lynn Chung was my doctor for my procedure. I received assistance from their staff on obtaining approval from my insurance company for the breast reduction. Dr. Chung did an excellent job on informing me on what I could expect for the actual procedure and recovery. I had requested that at least a 800 grams be removed and she exceeded my expectations. I'm very pleased with the results and wish I had the procedure done years ago. It has been life changing. Dr. Chung's staff did a great job and were very helpful before, during and after the procedure. I highly recommend Dr. Chung if you are interested in having this procedure done. You won't be sorry.

Thank you Dr. Chung for accommodating my needs and helping me achieve everything I wanted and then some!! I had surgery a little over a year ago and Dr. Chung ever so cleverly placed incisions in my tattoos for liposuction and to this day you can't find any scars! I couldn't even tell you where they were! I still feel amazing and am SO glad I decided to have this surgery. It has helped my self esteem so much. Some day when I know I won't be having any more children I will be back to do finishing touches. P. S. Dr. Chung is AMAZING with lip fillers!! If you're thinking about it, do it!!!! read more

Dismissive and tried to up charge. I went in for a chin and jaw filler appointment. I have a chin implant that I've had for 25 years, and I am well aware that their are always risks with any type of fillers, but she tried to charge me over $3000 claiming it's $200 bucks extra for the chin area. And I know it costs $675 per tube of filler so to try and charge me over $3000 for filler is criminal! The front desk girl I booked an appointment with the week prior, called me on Monday 5 times within a half an hour to verify my appointment, and kept calling me Michelle. By about the third time, I said to her, I literally talked to you 30 seconds ago and you're still calling me Michelle?? The staff is clueless and the place tries to up charge. I felt like I had been written off when the girl came in with the price, and I told her I wanted to talk to the Dr again, and she told me it would be 45 minutes before she'd be done with her consult. I was like what?? It's my appointment right now to have this done and she just dismissed me. Go somewhere else. I went there years ago when Dr Stanley Jackson owned it. He was amazing. This place is a joke. I made an appointment with Eterna Vein right down the road from them. I've been there before and the staff is great and the Doctors are as well. I couldn't get into see them until February, but it screams volumes of what kind of place it is, if you can't get in to see them until after the first of the year. When I made my appointment with Eterna Vein, I asked them if they charge for different types of fillers, and they said absolutely not, they charge by the tube as it usually is... but not at Dr Kierney and Dr Chungs office. Stay far away from that place! Book with an office who actually gives a shit about the patient and is not just looking to rake you over the coles! Sincerely, Stephanie K read more

This review is NOT for Dr. Chung, but for one of her receptionists. I work in mental health and see a trans client that had to speed up their timeline for top surgery as they found out they were going to lose their insurance. They called Dr. Chung's office and were asked for their BMI. They gave it and were told not only that their BMI was too high for surgery (they have not run into this rule with any other surgeon they have spoken to) but that they should try "walking around the block and eating a carrot." It was so insulting and disheartening and they were really upset. You cannot extrapolate someone's health behaviors from their BMI, and even if they were sedentary and ate unhealthily (neither is true), how is that comment motivating or helpful in the slightest? read more

Dr.Chung is amazing and I couldn't be more happy with my results on a breast argumentation 700cc gummy bear! The staff was extremely slowwwwwww but Dr.Chung herself was amazing thank you again read more

I received Botox from Dr. Lynn Chung two weeks ago and could not be more satisfied with my results. I have been to quite a few different offices in the last two years for my Botox however I can now see the difference it makes to see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. I was important to me to keep a natural look while not having any lines. This was also the FIRST time I had ZERO BRUISING! Dr. Chung exceeded my expectations as I will be recommending ALL of my friends and family to see her! read more

I am almost 40 and have been noticing some aging in my face lately. I have thin lips and notice some wrinkles starting to form around my mouth. I also notice my crows feet and frown lines now as well. I had Dr. Chung put some filler in my lips (1 syringe of Volbella) and some botox around my eyes and forehead. I knew I did not want an unnatural looking mouth and I was pretty scared to get filler at all. She took her time injecting me and was so caring and considerate the whole time. She kept making sure I was ok after each poke. My lips look beautiful. I look in the mirror every day and can't believe how it has enhanced my face. It looks so natural and subtle. My botox is perfect too. She is amazing. read more

I filled out an online request form for a breast augmentation. The next day I got a phone call and was in the office the next week. Walking into the office, was greeted by the friendly receptionist. Then we met with Stephany. She was great. I was really nervous. She put me at ease. Talked with me and made me feel comfortable. She took some pics and then came in Dr. Chung. She made the last bit of my nerves go away. Answered all of my question. Pros and cons for me and my body type. What would be a good fit for me. Also answered all my husband question and laughed at his "funny" jokes. Her whole staff made me feel safe and comfortable. Day of surgery everything went great went in nervous woke up Happy!!! I was up and walking around later that day. Little to no pain. Felt like I did an extreme workout. I would recommend Dr.Chung to everyone. I going back again for micro-needling and who knows what else. Thank you for the amazing job. Lots of love to you all. read more

Unfair pricing system!. I have no idea how they calculate their prices but some people get a ridiculous discount ($1500 for a $6000 knee / thigh liposuction), whilst others will be quoted an extortionate fee ($4500 for liposuction on a much smaller area than that mentioned above). Personally I felt that I was being lied to and played. My friend was offered this amazing discount after being informed by the doctor that other hospitals over charge and that $6000 dollars is not the real cost of knee / thigh liposuction. Meantime I was told that the higher quote I got for a much smaller body area (chin) was a discount and I should be thankful. Yeah right. I have ONE chin and it is smaller than TWO legs!!!! Thanks for the bare faced insult! I wont be recommending this con shop to anyone! read more

LOVE Dr Chung's work! I was referred to Dr Chung by a friend. I went to see her for botox around my eyes & juvederm in my lip. I was so pleased by the results & the high quality care I received. The botox makes my eyes pop & lifts my eyebrows just enough to make my eyes a little bigger & brighter. The Juvederm is the perfect amount to make my non-existent upper lip a little more plump but not crazy duck lips very subtle :) Dr Chung was very clear and concise & discussed the potential risks and the realistic results of the procedures. Even when I had a little mini-anxiety attack about the needles (I started sweating profusely...not cute) Dr Chung made me comfortable & at ease & was very professional. Her bed side manner is top notch! I've been back to Dr Chung on multiple occasions, she's well worth the trip from San Diego & conveniently I'm able to get up to the Bay area frequently enough for her to be my regular aesthetic surgeon. I've recommended Dr Chung to all my friends. Beautiful work!!! read more

I've been seeing Dr. Chung for nearly a year at her office in Laurel Heights. I had a very deep glabella frown line between my eyes and started noticing small wrinkles around my eyes and forehead so it was time to dip into the 'fountain of youth!' I was brand new to aesthetic procedures and Dr. Chung was very thorough in our consultation. She described the expected results and risks of the procedures available to me from botox, to fillers, to laser treatments (Fraxel) but did not try to 'up-sell' anything to me. I started with Botox treatment around my eyes then graduated to Juvederm for my glabella frown line (phenomenal results!). Dr. Chung is also one of the first physicians in the US to offer a new botox-equivalent (Xeomin) which I tried at my recent visit (forehead wrinkles and around the eyes) and I love the results! Dr. Chung is very enthusiastic and knowledgeable about her work and it shows! I have long-standing appointments with her every 3-4 months and I'm always very pleased with the results. The changes are subtle but make me feel amazing. If I ever need to go 'under the knife' for a more serious aesthetic procedure I've got Dr. Chung on speed-dial. read more

just now Dr. Chung is very educated and is amazing at what she does! I had my lip fillers done by her and couldn't be more happier. She is very patient and informative with each patient, takes her time to answer all of your questions and gives her all. She is very talented and is easy to trust with any procedure. Her work is exceptional! Definitely plan on coming back many more times. You will definitely not regret your visit with her. read more

The receptionist basically turned me away instead of providing information that would make me want to go there. Asked her several different ways to get some information on a procedure. She wouldn't provide anything, All she wanted was to just charge a fee. Every sentence that came out of her mouth had the word "fee" in some form or other. read more

I found the staff to be informing and educated on procedures and pricing everyone there had great customer service !!

Such a great experience all around! Felt very comfortable with my doctor, welcomed by the staff members to surgery and anesthesia! Great experience overall and have recommended Dr Chung and Kierney to a few of my friends! My results are amazing and I'm so happy with the process I've gone through so far being 4 weeks post surgery. Thank you!! read more

Great staff and short wait times. We are so fortunate to have such a talented professional in our small town. Dr. Chung is very caring and quick to address any of your concerns. read more

Just had a BA from Dr Chung. The staff and doctor were amazing answered all my questions made time for extra phone calls to answer my questions. The results look great for even 1 day post op.. can't wait until they are full healed. Thanks Dr Chung! read more

BEWARE!!! I saw Dr Chung with a Groupon for Botox and ended up with a droopy eyelid and uneven eyebrows. She said this happened because my face is asymmetrical and I needed to purchase some over the counter eye drops. RUDE! I've been getting Botox injections for 4years and have never had this problem. I am appalled that a plastic surgeon, of all people, could mess this up so badly. I look tired & saggy-eyed thanks to Dr Chung. read more

Dr. Lynn Chung performed a breast augmentation and liposuction on my love handles as bikini season is fast approaching and I want to look my best. She is a very professional plastic surgeon and took the time to explain everything about the procedure and answer all my questions. I am extremely pleased with both the results and my experience at her office and would go back again. read more

Dear Dr. Chug, I did not attack your Mother, besides this issue is not about her. How could a mature professional say something like that from what I wrote. Please don't divert the issue and try to shame me. You and other readers, may want to look at what other Plastic Surgeons say, as I did, for example this review on Google: http://www.realself.com/question/botox-70-years-old. I was a year and a couple of days over 65 when I stepped in your office, take no prescriptions and am in perfect health with few wrinkles, I told you I was depressed since my own Mother died in late January and that I heard Botox may help with that. Again Google Depression & Botox. You know, I kind of feel sorry for any Plastic Surgeon that needs to offer discounts on Botox through both Groupon and Living Social to get business. You get no kudos from me, and I did not come in looking for Plastic Surgery, which you recommended rather than what I came in for. read more

I have been only to male cosmetic doctors in the past. I must say I love Dr Chung compared to all my drs. She is loving and makes sure you are comfortable from the day you meet her. The entire staff is professional and kind. She did two surgeries for me both under local anesthesia. I pretty much talked through both of them. If considering surgery just have a consultation and you will see for yourself. read more

Went to see Dr. Chung to take care of some residual acne scarring from my teenage years. Overall, she was compassionate, amiable, and professional. She clearly walked me through the process, risks, and benefits. I felt I understood exactly what I was going into before starting the laser treatment. During the actual procedure, she was attentive to my comfort level and general well-being. Now that the (expected) swelling & discoloration has subsided, I am very satisfied with the results of her work. read more

I didn't even know my head was being sutured, she is that good. Over the years, I have done lots of dumb things and have visited many emergency rooms. This time it was Krav Maga, and a giant cut over my eye. I contacted her and she met me late at night after finishing up at the hospital. She opened up her office at 10 pm at night. That's service! A week later I couldn't even tell where I was hit. She is clearly a very skilled surgeon, is very approachable and calmed any fears I had about having a needle in my head. Nice job Dr Chung!! PS, it's about a month or so later, and I can't see the scar. I think it's hidden in my wrinkle on my forehead. Nice job!! read more

I have had the pleasure in meeting Dr. Chung to address scars around my mid-section. Dr. Chung consulted me with various options for treatment and after examining each one diligently; we decided to go with Fraxel. I was hesitant at first because we are talking about a "laser" here, but Dr. Chung addressed my concerns with knowledgeable responses and provided me with pinpoint details as to what the risks were and the normalcy of swelling/redness. Having gone through 4 sessions with Dr. Chung, I am very pleased with my results and can now have the confidence to walk around without a shirt on. With my busy daily routine, scheduling an appointment at Laurel Heights Plastic Surgery was very convenient and her staff was very friendly over the phone and in person. Dr. Chung's office is conveniently located in Laurel Heights (not downtown where all the hustle and bustle is). I can't tell you enough how nice it is to just get in your car after a session (parking is easy) and then enjoy the rest of your day Thank you Dr. Chung! read more

I went to Dr. Chung for any consultation of my problematic skin and any resolve to the issue. The enviroment was warming, and the staff was great. Dr. Chung was very knowledgeable, comforting, and last but not least had a plan to overcome my skin. I was given two methods of treatment. One was the SkinCeuticals system of cleanser, toner and lotion. The other was a handheld device called Claro to literally "zap" pimples away, using intense pulsed light. I have to say, since then it has been a life changer. Thanks to her I have gain confidence with myself and I finally have a WORKING method to overcome acne. read more

I was referred to Dr. Lynn Chung by a long-time friend of her fiancée. Her space is modern, serene, and inviting; it feels more like a spa than a doctor's office. Her assistant is friendly and helpful. What I am most impressed by is how thoughtful and knowledgeable Dr. Chung is. She really listened to all of my concerns regarding my difficult acne and then thoroughly talked me through the microdermabrasion procedure. She was gentle and informative, really putting any fears I had to rest. She also recommended a great ski ncare regimen that has helped to balance my over-active oily skin. After my procedure, my skin felt cleaner and looked brighter. I am looking forward to my next microdermabrasion appointment. read more

I went to see Dr Chung for my first Botox and was terrified, she was very detailed in explaining the procedure (I do NOT like needles). I told her my areas of concern and closed my eyes... before i knew it, it was over. I said "that's it?". Very satisfied with the service and her front staff, Whitney, is incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about the products they sell! read more

Fantastic service! Such a professional! Discretion is unquestionable, and the procedure is top notch, I've found a new fave!

I have been seeing Dr. Chung for several years and my previous doctor reccommend her. I find her to be professional, warm and and never pushes you into something that you are not comfortable with. She has treated me with fraxel, microdermbraison, silk peels and an assortment of techniques to keep me looking youthful. I trust her judgement because she has never done a procedure on me that I was not happy with. Of all the doctors that I have seen over the years, she has the best record of not bruising me. I love her office and her staff. Everyone is a top notch professional. bh read more

I have been seeing Dr Chung for a few years and have had amazing treatments and discussed major surgery with her. i can honestly say I look more rested now than I did in my 20s! I have been wavering regarding necessary cosmetic surgery for over a year and am finally taking the plunge because I believe in Dr Chung's expertise, abilities, talent, and, quite frankly she has been patient and allowed me to come to my own conclusion that surgery is my only option. I hands down recommend her to my friends. Thank you Dr Chung. :) read more

Dr. Chung is awesome! She is kind and very professional. She helps patient make the right decision and answer questions honestly! I can say that she is an amazing surgeon! I would definitely recommend her. read more

Dr. Chung is a amazing surgeon and professional of filler and botox injections. I had a small upper lip and with her expertise, I now love my lips ! I have a natural look that I think most women want. After I got Filler I came back to get Botox between my eye brows, because I want to prevent fine lines and wrinkles. I had a deep line and now I have nothing and it looks great ! No swelling and No down time. Couldn't be happier with Dr. Chung and her staff ! read more

Move on and don't bother with this practice. Saw an ad online for February specials and thought I would call. Talked to the esthetician, Leah, who was nice enough and scheduled the appointment. Then about 1/2 hour later received voicemail stating that they're a private practice and all this blah blah blah and we could not move forward with my appt. WTF? I originally wanted to meet with Dr Kierney, last year but he was in surgery so they scheduled me with Dr Chung who I knew nothing about, We had a negative experience, to say the least, and she did not listen to my concerns and spent about 5 minutes with me and was quite dismissive. This visit was documented unbeknownst to me. Wow! So, the bottom line here is this. if this esthetician can't do her job without talking to this doctor, first then it's best to spend your time and money elsewhere. There are plenty of other practices that do the same stuff. Keep looking past this one! Two times and they're out! read more

I'm a long-time patient of Dr. Chung and this recommendation is way overdue! I have extraordinarily high standards when it comes to cosmetic *ahem* "adjustments" of any kind. If you are looking for an expert (and you should be) -- Dr. Chung fits the bill. She has a magic touch with botox and fillers (both juvederm and restylane) and I have just recently appointed her the shaman of my Fraxel journey. She's also nice as all get-out and is quick on the draw with her trusty pair of squeezy stress balls if you're a bit needle-shy. Stop frowning into the mirror and call her! You'll be so glad you did. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Lynn Chung for Botox, Restylane and Juvederm treatments for several years. A friend recommended her after we had both experienced not so good results from another Bay Area plastic surgeon. She is amazing! She is attentive, kind, talented and the results I've experienced under her care are awesome! I've seen other plastic surgeons in the past and she is by far the best. I highly recommend her! read more

I went after getting a Groupon. I thought Dr. Chung was very professional, as was her staff. Very satisfied with results. I'd go back.
