My experience with Centre for Facial Plastic Surgery couldn't have been better. The staff are very accommodating and helpful. Their expertise and experience was shared freely and prepared me for my procedure (pre. and post). Dr. Randy Tate is skilled at his profession. We are very lucky to have him here in Redding! He explained my procedure completely and I feel confident that I couldn't have gotten better care and results! The surgery changed my whole outlook on skincare and health; besides making the subtle improvements in my appearance it has boosted my confidence and motivation to take care of "my investment". read more

I wanted to try a plastic surgery/injectables office closer to home than the practice I typically visit, so I decided to give Dr. Tate's office a try. The office itself was beautiful--very clean, and nicely decorated. Unfortunately, my experience with Dr. Tate himself was the complete opposite of what the office initially conveyed. I came in for lip filler and was very open with Dr. Tate about the look I personally prefer. I explained that I like my lips fuller and even showed him pictures of myself so he could understand what I was looking for. He gave me a consultation, but rather than keeping it at that, I was told that the look I wanted was not "vogue" and was "not in." He also made a joke about seeing me in a couple of months with my "big lips." I laughed it off in the moment, but the comment stayed with me. I also found it unprofessional that he made disparaging remarks about another local beauty/dermatology center, essentially saying that if I wanted "bad work," I could go there. And frankly, there was something particularly uncomfortable about having a male physician make comments and jokes about the way I wanted my lips to look, rather than simply explaining his professional opinion and allowing me to make an informed decision about my own appearance. What I think is important to understand about experiences like this is that women often walk into cosmetic practices already feeling vulnerable. It takes a certain level of confidence to sit in front of someone you have never met and openly discuss the things you may feel insecure about and what would make you feel more confident. You should be able to have that conversation without feeling judged, mocked, or made to feel like your preferences are somehow wrong. I left the office and, once I got to my car, I cried. I immediately called the practice I normally go to--the one where I feel comfortable, respected, beautiful, and welcome. That experience made the difference between the two offices especially clear to me. I understand that every physician has their own aesthetic philosophy and may not agree with a particular look. That is completely fair. But there is a respectful way to communicate that. You can tell a patient that you do not recommend a certain result without making them feel embarrassed or belittled for wanting it. The office itself is lovely, but for me, the way a patient is made to feel matters far more. I ultimately left feeling discouraged and more insecure, which is the exact opposite of what I believe someone should feel when leaving a cosmetic practice. read more

Dr. Tate and staff are the absolute best. He is a great listener, very considerate and provides sound advice. The care I received was outstanding and well above par. I will be returning. read more

Do Not let Dr. Tate do any surgeries on you! I paid and trusted him for my face eye and neck lift. He botched my surgery so bad, that it took many many visits back to him and I could not go in public for a few months. He never did my neck lift and never reimbursed me. Still paying on it. He's a very egotistic doctor and thinks he's above and beyond ! Over confident! I could go into detail but I am warning you! Don't have him do anything to you! I went back to get my records to file a complaint against him and he had his girls erase all my complications & nothing at all was in my record!! No records! He needs to have his license taken away. If anyone out there has had a botched surgery from Dr.Tate please contact me. His father owned the surgery center across from him and Dr Tate has made sure there is no record of reviews are posted to the public of his botched surgeries. God will have vengeance on you Mr.Tate. read more

I had one surgical procedure done by Dr. Tate that resulted in my face being much less symmetrical than it was before. I'm going to get a revision from another surgeon. Prior to the surgery my appointments with Dr. Tate were very rushed and I barely had time to ask any questions before I was rushed out the door. His staff kept giving me conflicting instructions about doctor approvals, leading to me canceling and then last minute rescheduling appointments, and he accused me of lying about what medications I was on. I was given no written pre or post operative instructions prior to the surgery. The hospital called me a week before and told me (without me asking) that I could take ibuprofen or similar up to three days before the surgery. I had a migraine three days prior, so I took ibuprofen. Then the day of the surgery the nurse told the Dr. I had taken it three days prior and Dr. Tate was annoyed that I had done so and told the nurse in front of me that he wasn't going to cancel the surgery but that it was a problem. He didn't tell me why it was a problem prior to surgery but the morning after he complained to me that I was swelling and bruising as soon as he started surgery and said it was because I took ibuprofen and that it really messed things up. I told him the hospital had told me taking it three days prior was fine and he went quiet and shrugged. Immediately after the surgery, we had no post-op instructions, and my boyfriend who was driving me home had to ask the nurse three times before she would bring us some. She tried to discharge me without them after he'd already asked twice. This was my first plastic surgery and I thought I'd done enough research but now I know better. I'm going to pursue a revision elsewhere. read more

I had botox on my eyes and he hit a nerve was black andblue for weeks.. To this day I still have a bump on the left side of my eye. I was not given any compensation . Would not recommend this DR. read more

I recently came across photos of myself from before my rhinoplasty that I received from Randy Tate in 2020. I'm angry and completely regret choosing this care provider because his results were so poor. I returned to his office six months post-op to voice my concerns and was dismissed. He had even promised to do a revision procedure if I was still unhappy then pretended like he had never said that. Save yourself the heartache and find a different surgeon or you'll be getting a revision. read more

Wonderful office team and Dr Tate is very professional. He is up to date on all the latest facial procedures and I would not trust my facial procedures to anyone else. read more

Ethical, professional and all around joy to be around. Dr. Tate is very fair and I have never felt pressured to buy services I didn't need, unlike other Dr.'s I've been to. I get my facials here with Tracy and have gotten Botox to help with my TMJ. I have friends who have gotten other services as well and they look great! Staff is pleasant and on top of their cancellation list! read more

I didn't go here but Yelp put it on my review list...I have friends who see Randy Tate and they say he is absolutely amazing so giving 5 stars. read more

If I could give Dr. Tate and the staff zero stars I would but YELP won't let me. I had my initial consultation 9/22, discussed a procedure, met with financing etc. I never received the information or appointments necessary to move forward. I called the office today, to find out where things stood because I was not contacted with follow-up information. I spoke to Tracy, and was told the exact opposite of what was explained to me during the appointment by Dr. Tate and the person reviewing financing with me. I was met with disdain and condescension during the phone call. I mean, medical services have changed drastically since the pandemic however, this is a luxury segment of the industry that should be met with higher standards of customer support. Very disappointed and will bring my business elsewhere. This review can be disregarded by Dr. Tate's office because I am one person and who needs me right? BUT if this review detracts you the person reading this and others, then the point has been made. Update - They got back to me about a month later, offered me what was originally discussed in the appointment with Dr. Tate, scheduled my surgery and then a few weeks later Kelly called me advising that Dr.Tate is refusing to perform my surgery because of the above negative YELP review. Per Kelly, "we consider our patients family and your review is not family like behavior so Dr.Tate does not want to do your surgery." He canceled my surgery, which he deemed medically necessary, with no referral to another provider or further follow up. I filed a complaint with the insurance provider and MD Board. Still waiting on definitive response. I found another fabulous provider for my surgery and couldn't be happier. Just a heads up for those considering Dr. Tate. read more

Dr Tate did a procedure on my Eye Lids. Very happy with the results. Staff was very helpful and made the whole process easy. Very nice and Clean and tastefully decorated office. I wouldn't hesitate to have him do other procedures if necessary read more

I love how friendly all the staff is and I couldn't be happier with Dr. Tate and his work. I moved to Redding a year ago and the first thing i did was yelp for someone who does botox and fillers and Dr. Tate was rated the best so I made an appointment right away. I was not disappointed he is better than anyone i had seen in the Bay Area. read more

Dr. Randy Tate is wonderful! I went in for botox for the first time. I was very nervous but Dr Tate was so nice! He noticed I am a huge Disney fan and he talked about Disney to and it helped distract me from being nervous. He was really fast! Staff was amazing! They even applied cover up after wards. I saw some results right away and in 3 days I saw great results! After 2 weeks I still saw a few lines in my forehead so I went back and Dr. Tate touched it up for free! So happy with the results! I had no bruising the first time and only a tiny bruise in my forehead the 2nd time. Highly recommended! read more

great office staff very nice and polite and Dr Tate is very professional I'm very pleased with the surgery and the recovery office is very neat and clean and I would recommend Dr Tate for his profession read more

I have nothing but positive things to say about my experiences with Dr. Tate and his wonderful staff. You can tell that they actually care about you as a person, and not just as a patient. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Tate for any and all facial procedures! He doesn't try to sell unnecessary procedures and goes with the least amount of invasive procedures first! I couldn't ask for a better place to go for my facial procedures. read more

I honesty can't say enough about Dr. Randy Tate and his entire staff. From the moment you walk in you're taken care of and made to feel comfortable. I had never had anything done to my face before seeing Dr. Tate and was a little nervous (to say the least). Not only did he make me feel so comfortable, but he was also patience and let me have a mini freak out before my Botox . That was huge to me! And then the results!!?? I was happier then I could have ever imagined! Had I know it would look thy good I would have come in much earlier. I recommend Dr. Tate to all of my friends, family, and clients. He is truly amazing at what he does. Five stars for sure. read more

It's hard to trust anyone to mess with your face. But if you're going to trust a doctor to do so, there is only one doctor to see, Dr. Randy Tate. He is serious about his craft, and with his experience he understands how to make you look good. His office is comfortable, his staff is friendly and he is an expert in his field.....none better! read more

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Randy Tate and his staff. My surgery and recovery was exactly as Dr. Tate had explained. I had a lot done but the difference is so subtle and done so well no one noticed except me and those who see me every day. I couldn't be happier with the end results and the pricing which is very reasonable considering the price would be double if done in the bay area. I'd highly recommend Dr. Tate to anyone wishing for a fresher look! read more

I had wavered back and forth for ages on getting a facelift. It is such a scary thought because it is not something that you can hide. Once it's done it's done. I had a consult once at the Center there and couldn't gather the courage to have anything done. The next time I went in, it was with a friend to talk about a noninvasive procedure and Dr. Tate was quite honest and up front about what would and wouldn't work. I scheduled another consultation and went in on a Thursday and after that appointment I was convinced and scheduled a full facelift. Dr. Tate asked me when I wanted it and I told him the sooner the better. I had the surgery that following Tuesday and it was the best decision I have ever made in my life. There was minimal pain. More discomfort and a little pulling feeling than anything else. You do get a little swollen and bruised but I was back to work in 14 days and the only people that really noticed were the ones that knew I was going to have it done. I have always been made to feel very comfortable and at home there. If I ever need anything again, I will use Dr. Tate. Thank you for my new look. read more
