Dr. Yu is very skilled and experienced. I went in yesterday ready to pay for filler, but he flat-out talked me out of it. Instead of needles, I got a fun storytime about delivering a baby in his medical training days. Lol. Love a skilled, honest doctor who won't just take your money. read more

Great experience from start to finish! Dr. Yu was also very professional and thoughtful. He focused on what was best for me rather than trying to sell unnecessary treatments, and Monica was so nice, patient, and attentive. She really understood what I wanted and made me feel comfortable throughout the process. Highly recommend! read more

Dr yu is very professional, I did all my nose tiplyft with him for couple years. He explained everything clearly and have good taste

It's been a little while since I wrote a review here and I think it's time I write one again. I've been going to Dr Yu for YEARS and I am still just as obsessed as I was the first day that I walked in. Dr Yu is not just a Dr, he's an artist and takes so much pride in doing a job well done. It's nice knowing he won't let a single person leave without them feeling totally satisfied and beautiful. Everyone who works the front desk is so nice and kind too. They always greet you when you walk in, say bye when you leave and answer all of your questions. I love this place so much and writing this review is making me want to go back this second! I also just read in another review someone commenting on easy to locate, plenty of parking and a beautiful waiting area. I don't normally think of the logistical things, but I can second all of that! You can also grab tea or water while you wait : ) Thank you Dr Yu and Kat! read more

I always come back for all my skin treatments and injections. Echo always takes care of me and SUE always does an excellent job with all my treatments. I got the hydro facial today and my skin feels so clean and amazing. Premier has the best customer service, l deals and treatments in general. I've been coming here since 2019 !! read more

Premier cosmetics was amazing! My doctor was extremely professional as well as the entire staff from the front desk to the nurses that help numb me. Everything was extremely clean, professional and well organized. I can tell this institution really cares about their customers and isn't here to turn a profit. I think my filler looks very natural and I'm extremely happy with my results! I would definitely recommend if you are asian or looking for a more natural, refined look that is subtle. Really a place to go to if you want to look like you were born like that. read more

Appointment times don't seem to mean anything to them. I went in for a consultation and waited 40 minutes before deciding to leave. As I was walking out of the waiting room, the sweet little Taiwanese girls remarked, oh! Oh! Miss..? And I explained that I was just walking out due to the length of waiting time. They had nothing to say. An hour after my appointment time (and after i left the review), someone from the office called me. So glad i left when i did, i would've fallen asleep if i had to wait another 20 minutes. And "healthcare" that is only interested in me if it affects their reputation is not worth my time or money. read more

Easy to locate. Plenty of parking. Immediately greeted upon entering. Beautiful waiting area. Staff is professional and provides good customer service. Dr. Yu is friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I scheduled appt for buccal fat removal so I thought what I need and that is not the case. Just some facial lipo to define my face. He showed me previous pts before and after to give me an idea on how my face would look. He didnt try to persuade me for other procedures. He recommended what is suited for me and my structure. Worth the hour drive. I highly recommend this establishment. read more

Premier Cosmetic Surgery & MedSpa - Room with a view while waiting to be seen - Cosmetic Surgeons Near Me - Arcadia, California

Being well into middle age, I had started noticing signs of aging and searched far and wide for a doctor to help restore my more youthful appearance. I had a plethora of issues I wanted to address, the most important of which was drooping hooded eyelids caused by ptosis in both eyes. My case was tougher than the usual bc my eyes didn't deteriorate at the same pace so one eye was much worse than the other. While discussing the treatment plan, Dr. Yu displayed extensive surgical knowledge and experience. It was clear I was talking to an unparalleled expert. The surgery went so well. He was able to achieve a nearly perfectly symmetrical result. I am beyond happy and so grateful to have found Dr. Yu. He's now my go-to guy for everything I need, including Botox and Sculptra. His staff is also wonderful. The girls give great advice; they don't try to sell unnecessary procedures. I so appreciate everyone at Premier Cosmetic Surgery & Medspa. I have no doubt you will too! read more

I've been getting cosmetic procedure with Dr. Yup since 2010! The main procedure I've gotten were fillers to correct my under eye bags, the apple of my cheeks, and smile lines. These were done multiple times because I loved the results so I usually return to Dr.Yu for maintenance and touch ups. I've also tried Botox for getting that V shape jawline. I get I've moved away to Northern California in the last few years and have tried other cosmetic places up there, the results were not quite the same, after a few years of less than satisfied experience. I've decided to make trips back down just so I can come back to Dr. Yu for these maintenance. Today I'm trying out a new procedure which is to adjust the base of my nose, this area I have significant mass loss due to aging, so the base of my nose appears to be sinking down, making my mid face area look older. So I'm getting fillers to raise this area. And the other one I'm getting is TipLyft, which is patented by Dr.Yu. It's a minimally invasive nose job. Instead of inserting an implant with surgery, Dr.Yu use filler injection to make fine adjustments to give the nose have a more lifted and shapely tip. The tip of my nose is round, and the bridge of my nose is on the flatter end. So this will help give my mid-face more definition. As expected the result is wonderful, it's a little bit swollen right now, Dr.Yu said it's going to go down 10% or so, that'll be the final result. I really like how it looks! Besides Dr. Yu's great skills. He is also very honest in his advice. Whenever I do consultation with him, he always advise me in a way that fits my appearance, I tell him the issues I want to fix, and he tells me exactly how to fix it with what procedure will give the best results. He never up-sales me surgery or any extra procedures I don't need. And if I really want to do something, he will give me a realistic expectation. For example I asked him how much improvement will I get from doing thermage on my loose upper arm? Because I really want to get it, he told me the result will be less than 10% improvement. So then I can decide if that's worth getting or not. The staff here are also wonderful, they are very polite and helpful. The good thing is the turn over rate isn't high, staff usually stick around for a long time which means the clinic is well-ran and staff likes working here. The consultant Echo has been here for 10+ years, I trust her and it's so easy to go back to the same consultant, she knows my history and my preference. Which makes everything so much easier. read more

Premier Cosmetic Surgery & MedSpa - Result for TipLyft - Cosmetic Surgeons Near Me - Arcadia, California

i've been coming to dr yu for roughly 10 years for all of my injection needs, from filler to botox. he has always been a honest caring doctor and at times when i wanted more filler, refused because i was honestly doing too much. it's refreshing to have a doctor who genuinely cares for his patients health, well being and aesthetic look ask for Kat! she's amazing with communication and makes me feel at home which i've never felt at a doctors office. the entire team is great. read more

I am so happy with my results after cosmetic surgery with Dr. Yu. I came in thinking I knew what I wanted: an eye bag removal and upper eyelid skin removal. I felt my eyes looked more droopy and sagging than was appropriate for my age. I definitely needed the eye bag removal, but Dr. Yu recommended facial fat grafting to help give the eye region a lifted appearance while being less invasive. The problem was mainly lost volume in my brows and temples, not excess skin. I followed his expert opinion and am so happy with how it came out. I was awake for the surgery, the eye bag removal was uncomfortable but I'm so glad I didn't need real anesthesia. The bruising/redness on my face was minimal afterwards, but it was very puffy. People just thought I looked different for the two weeks after but I was able to get out after about 5 days. It has been about 3 months and my face looks more youthful but very natural and subtle. I notice the difference everytime I look in the mirror and I feel much more confident without makeup. I'm so glad I took his advice! Thanks Dr. Yu! read more

I've been here since 2016. My sister and her local friends recommend me Dr. Yu. I'm done several treatments both surgical and non surgical procedures！And I was satisfied with the experience all the time. The staff and nurses here are so nice and gentle all the time. I went to other states to go to school. However，this place is the only medical spa I trust and make appointments every time I back in LA. Really appreciate Dr.Yu and all other nice people here. read more

This review is just base on their customer service . I Visited few years back for some consultation but didn't went ahead for any procedure because of some issues . Now that I am ready I called to make an appt and everything ran smooth and when I show up for the appt , she say she need to collect an upfront $80 consultation fees which wasn't informed ahead . I told them you should have told me in advance as the first time I visit this wasn't implemented but what make me mad is the consultant gave me a very " don't care a damn look " thinking I am very cheap not wanting to pay and roll her eyes when I clarify how the charge can be taken off as my mandarin hearing is not so great . She make me feel so stupid with numbers . She then went ahead immediately to brush me off saying you can go home think about it and make an appt next time when you are ready to pay . I was so ready to do the ultherapy session after the consultation this time , I am mad not cos of the $80 but more of the dis respect response to a ready customer to just want to brush me one side and send me off with a don't waste her time attitude . I went ahead and book another consultation with $100 upfront booking fees at another place down the street that has wonderful customer service when seeing me . read more

I have been seeing Dr. Yu for more than 10 years and I was told by my friends that my look has not been changed for the past 10 years. I have been having different treatments with Dr. Yu including Botox, thread lifting, fat grafting., etc., and all results came impressive. I specifically love the way how he does the injection. He has an artist eye and great technique to change your look. Great great doctor who can keep you younger and pretty. Love you, Dr. Yu! read more

Dr. Yu was amazing. I've gone to few med spa but it's always been a nurse doing my injections. I had a chin filler migration from my previous medspa and after that I only trust Dr. Yu with all my aesthetic treatments. I just did a tiplyft and i'm happy with the results. I can't wait for the final results after swelling. The staff are friendly. Echo helped me the whole process too. read more

I was looking for the keloid injection and I found this place on Yelp, and decided to give it a try. The nurses here are very friendly.. they speak Chinese and English which is very helpful ! The consultation went smoothly, very detailed. Before the injection started, they put the numbing cream and ice pack for 5 minutes and it helped to ease the pain during the injection. Dr Yu and the nurses here are experienced and know what to provide the best for their customers. I was very nervous during the injection, and both doctor and the nurse did a great job of calming me down. Appreciated ! read more

Monica is the best facial lady I ever had. She is very professional and detail in what she does. I also had Botox by Dr Yu. It is the first time I had no headache after the Botox injection. Very grateful to have found Premier Cosmetic read more

I'm really impressed with my experience here today. I was nervous, as I'd never had any Botox before, but I was seeking relief for my TMJ and it was time to give it a shot! (Pun intended) The staff and Dr. Yu were very warm and friendly - they took time to explain every step and answer every question I had. I was happy that Dr Yu himself was the one doing the injections, it put me at ease. The process was as swift and painless as possible. Exceeded my expectations for sure! Looking forward to the results. read more

A perfect experience! They test my temperature first and all the customers must use hand sanitizer so it's very safe and there's no worry about the Covid. My consultant Echo is very nice and with great patience，she gave me many great advices after knowing my needs. Dr.Yu is so professional on nose injection! I had some nose injections in the wrong way before at other surgery, Dr.Yu helped me reshape it and my nose seems great now. Great service and professional technique! It definitely worth the price! read more

我在余医师这边做医美已经有5、6年了，一直以来都是只做定期的打针、热麻吉之类的保养治疗。我的眼袋是家族遗传 困扰我很久，但ㄧ想到开刀就会怕怕一直鼓不起勇气。因为在余医生诊所做医美很多年了，然后他们和我讲解现在眼袋手术都是微创，所以直到最近才终于把眼袋给做了。 我做的是内切眼袋，除了手术过程真的完全没有我想像中的恐怖之外，重点是外观上没有看到任何伤口，只有做完头3天有微肿，去上班都没有人看得出来我是刚做完手术的，超开心！手术结果我非常满意很自然，现在就算素颜出门，看起来也不再这么憔悴没睡饱的样子。我想在此分享我的经验,非常谢谢余医师跟全体工作人员 read more

UPDATE: Now that my lips have healed I still absolutely love them! I wanted to include a pic for reference. Dr. Yu created such a beautiful natural pout! I definitely wanted a more conservative approach. My lips look so pretty and Dr. Yu addressed the asymmetry, my right side looked so collapsed before. If you're anything like me and always freak out after a procedure but BE PATIENT. My lips were swollen for 2-3 days after and it was a little hard to talk because I felt they got in the way. I had minor bruising inside of my lips so it wasn't at all noticeable. At first the filler feels weird and bumpy but after about a week my lips look and feel soft/smooth and plump and kissable. I am SO happy I chose Premier Cosmetic for my procedures! Echo was such a sweetheart! She talked me through the lip fillers and answered the questions I had about Botox. She suggested I do the V botox to help with my jaw grinding and migraines. I 100% recommend Dr. Yu! The staff is so professional and they make you feel super comfy! read more

Premier Cosmetic Surgery & MedSpa - I only have tinted lip balm on! I love how pouty they look without over lining or wearing any plumping lip gloss. - Cosmetic Surgeons Near Me - Arcadia, California

I've been to other cosmetic surgeons and I've always trusted the doctor's recommendations. However, I never repeated any visits to these doctors because I end up feeling something is still amiss. That has changed when I met Dr. Yu and Kat. They made me feel extremely comfortable and have made recommendations that best suit the problem I am trying to solve. One of my visits was for my ptosis and he did a phenomenal job! The care before and after the procedures were above and beyond. Can't recommend this place enough! read more

had a great ultherapy session with Sue today, she is very gentle and professional. The staff are nice as well. I'd come here again for other treatments in the future. read more

Can't Recommend Enough! - I had some weight issues in my lifetime and was unhappy with the excess fat around my stomach and stubborn fat in areas that were hard to get rid of even with exercise. I was drawn to Dr. Yu because he has years of experience, knowledgeable and specializes in the procedure. Also, in the reviews and in my experience, he was very respectful to me as a woman, I never felt uncomfortable around him. We went over what I wanted to change and improve, and he was able to educate me on how to approach it to get the best results. He really knows the body well, truly an artist and master sculptor!! I felt very confident in his abilities. Dr. Yu and his staff made me feel very comfortable and well taken care of. Everyone there is so warm and kindhearted! I went home with a garment, abdominal pads, and some supplies to help me through the night. I'm really thankful my consultant Echo took the time to explain the post op instructions and gave me some supplies, so I knew what to expect during the night. The doctor and nurses were always very prompt at responding to questions and being available if I had any concerns. I'm now 3 months post op and have a completely different shape! I have an hourglass figure, small waist, and flatter stomach! I can't believe the transformation! This is already doing wonders to my self-confidence...something I've lacked for so long. I find myself trying new clothes and seeing myself in a different light now. I'm so happy with the results and will be going back to for future treatments! I'm so glad I went to the right doctor! read more

I got no numbing cream and they left my upper lip bruised for 3 months. Now that I've been to better places this place is horrible. I did not post the review from 3 years ago. read more

Excellent service and fantastic results. My skin had never looked better after my laser treatments. I even had my mom come and get them and she swears she looks 10+ years younger and her skin has never been smoother. The Dr. patient and kind and the ladies are lovely. Overall great experience read more

Premiere Cosmetic Surgery & Medspa is one of the best in the Nation! I am glad I found this place. All the nurses and staff, and Dr. Yu, of course, are very warm and welcoming, and they have given me a chance to live a more confident life. Since I was 6 years old, I have been bullied by family, and former classmates, for a deformity of my nose that happened due to a childhood injury, and Dr. Yu's TipLyft, Nonsurgical Nose Job has given me the option of improving my nose without having to deal with the traumas of traditional rhinoplasty. I now look and feel better. I am glad that I found premiere. Thank You! read more

I've been coming to this med spa for a couple of years now! I did masseter Botox a couple of times for my clenching, and recently did a PRP facial. Dr. Yu is very professional and not pushy at all. He gave me great recommendations for my goals and did not try to oversell any procedures. The nurses and other staff are all very kind and caring. They're always checking to make sure you're comfortable and are very communicative and again, not pushy or aggressive like at some other places. I've had great experiences and will definitely come back again since I bought a package! read more

I recently moved to this area and I had to research a new place to get eye fillers and Botox. The moment I walked in I felt like everyone had great customer service. The place was staffed well and organized. They brought in a consultant to discuss what you wanted and want I liked is she didn't try to force anything to make you pay more. Then they took me to get before pictures. And then the doctor came in. Only thing I wish differently, I felt a bit rushed with the dr. He came in not saying hi and just bam bam done. Nonetheless, I would give this place another try. read more

Choosing Dr yu to fix my issue is the best decision ever! After just less than 13 day recovery I'm very happy and love the result of my surgery already. Dr yu is very professional and honest and Really have the art and beauty of eyes - I start to wish I had done it years prior! The nurse and consultation there are all the sweetest ever they r all very helpful and r there to make sure ur taken care of. I highly recommend Dr yu to to all my friends and families. read more

My all time favorite doctor around 626 area. Dr.Yu is very professional and know what look the best for you specifically. He doesn't use cookie cutter method on his patients. I had my lip filler and jawline Botox with him. Very satisfied my result. He injected very carefully. The experience is very comfortable and relax. Didn't really feel much pain. One big concern for most girls getting lip filler is "overfilling" which turns your lip like duck (or sausage) lip LOL. I understand! Totally! Even my BF worry about it and won't want me to get it for the first time. But I convinced him and took him with me so he could observe how Dr. Yu injected filler on my lips. He watched the whole process and of course. He really don't think my lips look like duck lip, and he said my lips look fuller! Echo is the consultant who helps me schedule appointments and answer my questions before meeting Dr.Yu. She is amazing and always accommodate your schedules. If you want to try out this place, she the right person to contact read more

2nd time here for Tiplyft. The staff is top notch - so welcoming, friendly, and understanding. And Dr. Yu takes his time to listen to your concerns and wishes, and is truly a perfectionist when it comes to achieving a natural look. He is knowledgeable and gives you information about the materials he uses and ways he goes about enhancing your final look. Will definitely continue to come back for touch up. Highly recommend!! read more

I had a great experience with Premier Cosmetic Surgery both Dr. Yu and Echo were so patient and professional, I have done this procedure (Botox slim shoulder) many times all over the world and this time so far has been my favorite experience!!! Thank you Premier Cosmetics team!!! read more

I've been coming to Dr. Art Yu for over ten years and so has my mother. I've also introduced a few friends here as well. What makes me a loyal patient of Dr Yu's over all these years is his fantastic bedside manner and his honest opinions. He won't make you do a procedure he doesn't deem you need or spend unnecessary money. I've had my breasts redone with Art as well as fat grafting injections into my nose and chin. I come in for Botox and fillers throughout the year as well. In the past I've tried promotions on Botox and fillers at other medspas that friends have promoted and the results do not look as great as Art's and don't last even a fraction as long as Art's work. I do think having a plastic surgeon who is trained in this type of aesthetics is the way to go especially one with steady hands like Art's and a great attention to detail. If you're going to do something for your face especially aesthetically go with the best. Art is the best! Dr. Art is a perfectionist and he doesn't have one approach to every face. He really takes the time to study your face and gives you what he deems is suitable for you. I've been going to him throughout these years and he's familiar with my issues I have with my face. This month I went in for ulthera, Botox, and the nose tip lyft. I love the results. I also consulted with him about doing eyes and he was extremely honest that I didn't need the surgery yet, but instead I could balance out my face with minimal fillers to the temple and that was exactly what I needed. My husband also came in expecting to get fillers and Botox on his forehead for terribly bad sleep lines that have given him a permanent V shape indentation on his forehead. Dr Yu told my husband he didn't need anything and that the fillers would not help my husband with his side sleeping issues on his forehead. It was best he adopt another sleeping habit to minimize the lines. This is rare and unheard of from many consultations. Most clinics will pounce on any opportunity to get a patient to do a procedure or treatment. Art truly felt my husband didn't need anything done and it goes to show how much integrity he has in his practice. This is why time and time again I only trust Art with my face. The ladies and the front desk that assist Dr Art are very professional too. His whole team makes you feel comfortable from start to finish. I personally always do my consults with Echo. She has great insight and is comfortable to work with. Dr Art's clinic is also extremely spacious and clean. They do practice covid safety. Every patient that walks in will have a temperature check and will be walked into a treatment room. To Dr Art and his wonderful team, thank you for all that you do for my beauty needs. I can't praise Art's work enough. read more

I came in today for a TMJ BOTOX. First, I met their consultant, Echo, who seemed nice and professional. Afterward, I had my pictures taken for them to keep as medical record to see my progress. My first time experience at Premier was pretty chill. As an honest reviewer I have to let you know that I got a discount for writing this clinic a five-star review. Which I believe other people might have gotten the same offer. Come here at your own discretion. read more

I came in for a consult on my sagging jowl, first time ever seeking help from a plastic surgeon. Dr.Yu's assistant Echo was so helpful, she recommended that I actually focus on my eye area. I've always had under eye bags, so I'm just so used to them. But she was so right that they are the one thing that always make me look tired! I went ahead with under eye bag removal surgery, which was easy and minimal discomfort. My recovery barely had any pain. 4 days later the bruising is barely noticeable and I was out and about. Now three weeks later, I'm super happy about the result. I no longer look tired, and even with a little sagging in my jowl my face overall looks younger! Everyone says I look refreshed. Highly recommend! read more

Wonderful office and doctor!!! Highly recommend this medical spa. Their professionalism, care, quality and education exceeded my expectations. I drove 4 hours for my appointment today and I'll do it again. Excellent service from the entire team and I am very happy with my outcome!! Thank you! read more
