I can't recommend this practice enough…read more I was an out-of-state patient, and from the very beginning, they made the entire process feel seamless. We were able to do FaceTime consultations along with in-person appointments, which made planning everything so much easier. They also worked with me on financing, which I really appreciated. The office itself is beautiful, clean, and welcoming. Every time I walked in, I felt comfortable and taken care of. The staff is incredibly kind and supportive, and you can tell they genuinely care about their patients. It's worth noting that he is a busy surgeon, so you do need to be patient with scheduling -- but in my opinion, that speaks to how in-demand and trusted he is. One thing that really stood out to me was the environment of the office. It has a strong faith-based presence, and while I'm not personally religious, I found it surprisingly comforting. I was told that during the building process, he would come in and write scripture within the structure of the office, which I thought was such a meaningful and intentional touch. On the day of surgery, I was understandably nervous, but the entire team made me feel at ease. The anesthesiologist was absolutely hilarious and helped lighten the mood right away. Right before surgery, the doctor asked if I would like him to pray with me. Even though I'm not religious, I said yes -- and it ended up being a really grounding, calming moment that I genuinely appreciated. Now, about 14 weeks post-op, I can honestly say I am so happy with my results. I feel confident, comfortable, and like I got exactly what I asked for. I'm still working on scar management, but overall, I love how everything looks. And coming from Las Vegas, I paid a fraction of what I would have locally, which made the experience even better. If you're considering working with him, especially as an out-of-state patient, I highly recommend it. I felt supported, safe, and truly cared for every step of the way.

I came here for a consultation because I saw really good reviews online. When I went in to see the…read moredoctor he was at first pleasant & sweet seemed to be asking me the right questions but shortly right after gave off that he was annoyed and the consult became rushed. When I asked for photos of people with similar cases like mine he pretty much brushed me off & suggested I visit their website for photos. Why would I do that if you're literally right in front of me hahah. Show me photos educate me you're the surgeon who I may potentially pay thousands and thousands to perform this procedure. Anyways after our rushed procedure the sales team gets a hold of me lol and they just went right into pricing .. didn't ask me about the consult didn't even introduce themselves I was shocked !!! The whole experience came off rushed and very sales driven. I even expressed that to the sales girls) I really believe if the surgeon took his time explaining things and behaved like someone who cared about me instead of my $$ this would have been a totally different experience. People are coming to you to spend tons and tons of money. They're not an inconvenience as soon as they want questions answered, very unprofessional. The 2 stars is for that fact that he doesn't charge a consult fee (shocking )

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.

Looking back now, I truly wish I had…read moredone more research before getting plastic surgery or had been more informed about breast augmentation in general. Unfortunately, I am still suffering from the results over 10 years later and cannot afford to repair the mistakes. I continue to have a double bubble issue on both breasts. After my first surgery, I experienced complications and developed a hematoma. I later went back in to fix the issues, but the outcome remained the same. What has been most difficult is that I was never offered a proper solution, revision support, or even a meaningful follow-up conversation about next steps. I paid over $8,000 for a surgery that has left me deeply insecure for more than a decade. I avoid bikinis, feel uncomfortable in my own body, and honestly feel heartbroken over the results. I have since consulted with other surgeons who explained that the implant placement was not done correctly, which likely contributed to the double bubble deformity and overall appearance. They also explained what would be required to repair the damage, but I simply cannot afford another $10,000 surgery. I am sharing this because, for years, I stayed quiet. I tried to be polite, not bother anyone, and even blamed myself. But now at 36, I've reached a breaking point and feel it's important to speak honestly about my experience. I hope women take the time to research thoroughly, meet with multiple surgeons and not go to the first surgeon they google like I did and ask difficult questions, and really think through their decision before moving forward. This was the first place I went to, and I trusted them completely. I miss my old self and appearance. The results have affected my confidence for years, and I hope one day I can afford to fix them. This is simply my personal experience, but I also wish the office had reached out over the years, checked on me, or acknowledged that the surgeries were not successful. I still have all the surgery paperwork and amount I paid, I look it and just wish there was an attempt to correct the mistakes or issues -Daisy

The huge question would I or would I not - look at cosmetic surgery to correct the wear and tare of life. That's when I recommended to go meet with Dr. Andrew. This would prove to be a great choice for me. Dr. Andrew has this wonderful persona, a person built on absolute respect, a great calmness, a wonderful listener, wanting to better understand what was really going on in my life, my expectations, my fears that held me back. His approach is inclusive, taking my husband's involvement and comments into consideration in preparing a plan for me. Nothing rushed, nothing forced just a beautiful supportive plan put in place to meet with my personal needs and sensitive timeline. Coming to the time of my surgery, everything that was promised was delivered and more. My eyelid fat tissue removal, magically opening my view of the world from the letterbox image I has settled for.

Dr. Smith was the first of three consultations I had for a mommy makeover after losing 130 pounds…read more I've never had cosmetic surgery before so the idea of having these procedures (breast lift with lipo and tummy tuck with lipo of the flanks) was nerve wrecking, I was looking for any reason to back out! I had such a great first impression of Dr. Smith, there was no going back! Talking with him, hearing the care that he genuinely has for his patient's health and well-being, made me even more firm in my decision to go through with it! Dr. Smith was so patient in explaining the process and what I could expect as a realistic outcome. I also loved how conservative he was with the procedures he was willing to do in one surgery (he wouldn't do a tummy tuck and BBL at the same time), he definitely wasn't trying to upsell his services and truly seemed to care and prioritize my health. After he explained his reasoning, there was no way that I would trust going to a different surgeon who was willing to do both in the same surgery (One of the three consultations was, and that was an automatic no for me). When the consultation ended, and my husband and I left Dr. Smith's office, I had such peace about going through with the surgery. Dr. Smith set the bar very high and the other two surgeons didn't come close! The surgery itself was so quick and easy, Dr. Smith's team were so calming that instead of feeling anxious about going into surgery, I was super excited! Dr. Smith's staff is top-tier! Like Dr. Smith, they're very attentive, friendly and patient. It truly is a wonderful team of amazing professionals! I followed Dr. Smith's post-op orders to a T and everything has worked out beautifully (I'm five months post-op). I've had no major issues with any part of my recovery, my belly button and incisions look amazing! I can't stop looking at my amazing transformation and feel so blessed that I trusted Dr. Smith and his team to hold my hand through this process while taking such great care of my health! I wholeheartedly would recommend booking a consultation with Dr. Smith, I promise you won't regret it!

Thankfully, I could always count on Dr. T, who would make time for me, sometimes waiting after closing hours, as I had a long commute from work. Dr. T is the type of doctor who treats patients and staff like his own family. He was funny and quirky, but always a gentleman.

Over the past few years, I underwent two separate breast procedures performed by Dr. Ali. Unfortunately, the first procedure was unsuccessful. While the office offered me a discount for a second surgery, I still paid a significant amount out-of-pocket. Sadly, the second procedure also failed. When I reached out to Dr. Ali and his office to discuss my concerns and explore solutions, their only suggestion was to attempt the procedure a third time. I expressed that I no longer felt comfortable moving forward with them due to the risk of experiencing the same outcome. I wanted to seek care from another doctor I could trust. In response, Dr. Ali acknowledged that he may not have the necessary skill set to perform the procedure successfully and stated that he would instruct the office to issue me a refund. After taking some time to carefully consider my options, I contacted the office to request my refund--only to be told they would not be providing one. I have since spoken to others who have had similarly negative experiences with this office, and I've even heard Dr. Ali referred to as "The Butcher of Newport." The stress, time away from my family, and financial burden caused by this ordeal have been immeasurable.

This is a review about the original Huntington Beach location and Dr. Peter Newen. I wish I could…read moregive zero stars. I had double eyelid surgery with Dr. Newen 9 years ago, and every day when I look at myself, I wish I had never had it done. At the consult and before the surgery, I specified over and over again that I wanted very small natural lids. Dr. Newen assured me at the consult and again before the surgery to trust him and not to worry. I was shocked afterwards to see what he had done. The fold was so high and deep, I could feel the tightness and pulling on my eyelids. They were pulled so tight, you could see literal pucker lines on the inner part of the lids. There were uneven suture lines and visible scarring. My eyes were strained and looked almost cross-eyed. I repeatedly contacted the office and only the assistants responded to me. I saw Dr. Newen once for a follow up and he was dismissive and even told me that when I get older my lids would start drooping so it's good that they are higher now, admitting that he made them bigger and higher than what I asked him to. I did not get the surgery so they could potentially look "good" when I am 80. I was so self-conscious about how my eyes looked, it took me over a year to feel comfortable going without glasses and using contacts again. Even after 9 years, they feel the same. The same tightness, pulling, and swollen look. The scarring is still there and there has been no drooping of the lids. I look much older now because of how deep the fold is. I have gone to other places for a consult and have been told it would be very difficult to fix. Sadly, I hate looking at my face in the mirror now. All for a simple double eyelid surgery.
