I strongly advise all to not use this doctor! I had him do a mini facelift, neck lift, upper eye lift, and an under-eye lift in January of this year. He ruined my face and has taken zero responsibility. I've been asking him for months what it is that he did and how I can correct it and he refuses to talk to me. If anyone has questions please feel free to email me @ johnellearce@hotmail.com read more

It's been about 4 months since my breast augmentation and I feel fantastic! I know from experience that it's a big decision for a lot of women to go through surgery, but if it has crossed your mind to have breast augmentation, don't wait any longer and go through with it. It will be one of the best decision you'll ever make. And with the right doctor you'll feel confident that you're in good hands. Dr. Erfani will be the right person to do the job. He is the type of doctor that takes time with his patient to explore their options and will tell you his honest opinion. What I loved about Dr. Erfani is that he was easily accessible and immediately returned all my phone calls with any concerns I had after my surgery and during my recovery process. He would be the right person you want to be doing your surgery with. Dr. Erfani has great bedside manner, he is compassionate, approachable, professional, intelligent and a great surgeon. He honestly loves to listen and talk to clients who wants to explore their options in enhancing their self esteem and confidence through plastic surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Erfani! It will be the best decision you'll ever make:) read more

Let me start by saying this 3 star is for the misleading information given to me and the hassle and confusion for something I wanted to get done. It is not about the doctor more so that they need to communicate more with their staff before upsetting a potiental patient. Other than that I would give them 5 stars for the experience, their friendly staff, great doctor, and how welcoming Jennifer amd Grace were. They are the best two employees there and make you feel like you have known them forever. **review update** Dr. Erfani came in and cleared everything up and was very concerned about the misscommunication that I had experienced. He really is a lovely and attentive doctor. He was concerned about my happiness and what I wanted. It was just unfortunate for that situation and confusion I went through with the consultant. Coming back for some other services. Changing my review to five stars because of the way Dr. Erfani and his wife handled the situation. read more

Dr. Erfani and his team of professionals are OUTSTANDING. I am 46 yrs old and a cosmetic treatment junkie. I take excellent care of my skin with a strict skin care regiment, including monthly facials and annual injectables. Being fairly well versed on what's the latest (and least invasive) anti-aging care I would consider, I found myself sitting face-to-face with Jayde, the patient coordinator then Dr. Erfani in his Chula Vista office to discuss CO2 laser treatment, which was the extent of interest I had.....initially. I am PICKY PICKY PICKY and skeptical, but read on... He asked about my concerns, which I explained besides my hyper-pigmentation and sun damage,were my heavy (fat) jowls and saggy neck/double chin. He listened intently, asked questions, we had a nice chat. Without hesitation I booked an appointment for a Spirit Lift on the lower portion of my face, and neck. I had done research in the past of this type of procedure, so it wasn't foreign to me. Normally, I would not book anything the same day, EVER (too picky and skeptical.) But he has a pleasant way about him, there is just something entirely RIGHT about him that made me trust in him, the staff and the procedure. The doc is a young man, fresh, innovative, gifted, contemporary and smart. When he looks at you, he is studying your face, although he hears you fully, he is also examining his canvas. He definitely sees the natural beauty in you, partnered with the magic he can create. He will not skirt around issues, he is honest, kind and very, VERY bright. I like this man. I trust this man. I am skilled at sound decision making, and I chose the right people to take care of my face. I am ONE week post-op, and, well, in all honesty, I look fabulous:) I look just like me, only better. I couldn't be happier with only 6 days into healing. I am excited to see the results improving even more over the next several months. Next up....CO2 Laser of course! Thank you for everything Spirit Lift team. With gratitude, -K read more

I discovered Dr. Erfani on a groupon for IPL photofacials to remove my sunspots and acne scars, and I am stoked that I decided to make the drive to Eastlake. Unlike some dermatologists or other facial centers which allow a med tech to work on your face unsupervised, Dr. Erfani performs the IPL photofacial lasers himself, every time. His prices, even his regular prices that are off the groupon specials, are competitive and much lower than some of the places I called in Del Mar and La Jolla before I decided to go with Dr. Erfani. Next, let me take a moment to praise Hilda, the esthetician GODDESS that Dr. Erfani has on his full-time staff. Between IPLs, the doctor recommended I get a facial with Hilda. Hilda uses all Dermalogica products, and she honestly saved my skin. I did not want to get a facial when Dr. Erfani suggested it, and I had a hard time admitting to myself for a full week after the facial that Hilda really does work miracles. But, I got with the program eventually, because Hilda cleared my trouble spots and suggested a regimen which counteracted any flare ups. She really does know her stuff. Now I have switched to Dermalogica products, I get a monthly facial, and I go back for one more IPL at the end of the month (my 4th). I was an Accutane kid but never saw truly clear skin after Accutane. Hilda, Dr. Erfani and the entire staff at Spirit Lift have finally made glowing, perfectly clear skin possible. Thanks Spirit Lift! read more

I absolutely love Dr. Erfani and his medical staff. I have been a patient of his since last September and I am a happy patient who returns on a regular basis. The office is bright, clean and welcoming and his office staff is friendly and helpful. When I get my procedures done, Dr. Erfani always takes his time to consult with me in detail and make sure we are making the best decisions for what I want and my health. His nursing staff and assistants are excellent as well and take very good care of me before during and after my visits. I am so glad I found him through Mallory, his office manager. Best chance encounter ever! Thank you to Dr. Erfani and staff, you guys are the best! read more

I went to the clinic in April for my Botox. I haven't done in the while and I'm really think a lot before I choose anything I research a lot and around here Eastlake there is a lot of cosmetic surgeons, after ready a lot of good reviews I decided to go with Spirit Lift Plastic Surgery, and thank God the experience was amazing. The doctor and the staff are incredible, they explain all the details of the procedures, from the beginning to the end, all my experiences on cosmetic clinic I had before was overseas, this is my first time in the U.S. And I'm really happy in this clinic. I recommend anybody to come. read more

Great Staff, but worst doctor ever!!! Bad experience with this doctor, We agreed on a price and a day before surgery he tries to charge me more for a price that he agreed before. I called the office and left him couple of messages and told his staff to please contact me to see if we could settle something up for us and he never even bother calling us back at all. I asked for my money back and still tip today, I haven't received the money or a phone call at all. Very bad service, Only interested on the money not really our needs. read more

I agree with the other post saying Dr. Erfani and his team are outstanding. They really are. I went in for a laser hair removal session. My last laser hair removal experience was at ANOTHER PLACE called Avalon and the 3 visits there were absolutely painful that I couldn't bring myself to make the 4th appointment. One summer later and badly in need of hair removal, I decided to give it another try, here at Spirit Lift. The team at Spirit Lift and Dr Erfani all helped comfort me and made sure the treatment was customized for me personally - Longer treatment course but minimal pain. My treatment was absolutely pain free. The facility was very clean and relaxing. I got this all at a discount through an online deal. I was so pleased with my first visit that although I had more sessions left, I decided to purchase additional sessions. One down side is that they're not open on weekends or later nights/earlier mornings so if you're working 9-5, you'd have to skip an hour or two from work to go. If they would shift their open hours, it would be PERFECT!! read more

I cancelled an appointment at another place to go with Dr. Erfani, and I'm glad I did. He has a great demeanor, and was genuinely caring and compassionate about me and my results. I also want to give a shout out to his staff - THEY ARE GREAT! I got a neck lift, and though it's only been three months, it's settling very nicely, and I'm happy with the results. The eyes are next! Thanks, Dr. Erfani! read more

I used to see Dr. Erfani when his office was in Chula Vista. I had hyperpigmentation from the sun that I wanted to get rid off. Dr. Erfani was very kind and made sure I was comfortable during the procedure. His attention to detail was wonderful. The procedure worked very well and I was happy. His price was very reasonable and I really, really appreciated that. I loved that I didn't have to pay an arm and a leg to get quality care. I now want to make another visit to the office and was sad to find out he had moved to another location. I also work in medicine-- Dr. Erfani is a gem. read more

Dr. Erfani and his staff were extremely kind and friendly. I told Dr. Erfani what I was looking to achieve with lip fillers and he performed exactly what I was looking for. His business is very clean and his staff was very attentive. They explained everything i needed to know very thoroughly and would recommend anyone I know to his facility. Thank you! read more

Late last year I had the opportunity to have a Spirit Lift and other procedures performed by Dr. Erfani, and it truly is life changing. This 67-year-old woman could not be happier with the results of the mid-lift, upper and lower eye surgery, and skin resurfacing. Over the past few years, my face didn't resemble my young spirit and now my spirit and face match perfectly! My cousin, who is four months younger than me, said the first time I saw her after the surgery: "Oh, my, now that's the cousin I remember 15 years ago." Not only were the results fabulous, but the care of Dr. Erfani and his wonderful staff was exemplary. They followed up every step of the way, and were there for the smallest questions and concerns. And Dr. Erfani's fee schedule beats everyone else by a mile. Plus, he always goes the extra mile to make your procedures have the best results possible. In fact, I carry some of Dr. Erfani's business cards with me at all times because I would love to have others have the opportunity to get their spirit lifted, too. read more

I've been seeing Dr. Erfani for over 10 years. I see him for Xeomin. I started because I got repeating headaches and it really worked. Now I just get the treatment because I feel like my face looks more relaxed. Dr. Erfani is a warm and friendly person, who genuinely cares about his patients and their needs. The staff is also very helpful. read more

I love this place, the staff was amazing. They are very professional and friendly, they work with your schedule. I had breast augmentation and they did exactly what I wanted :) no more and no less. I absolutely recommend them you won't regret it. read more

Dr. Erfani at Spirit Lift is the best! I couldn't be happier with the lower face lift, neck lift and eyelid lift (Upper Blepharoplasty) that he performed on me six weeks ago. I thought it was just a pipe dream for me to have plastic surgery. I'm in my mid 50s and have been self conscious about one eyelid that droops more than the other, and my sagging, droopy neck. Although I do look young for my age, these two features have been bothering me for years. Almost as a lark, I looked on Yelp for reviews on plastic surgeons. Dr. Erfani had the best reviews so I made an appointment at Spirit Lift. Although his office is in Chula Vista, which is a bit of a drive for me from Carmel Valley, it was worth it to me to find someone who I felt would do a fantastic job, and someone I felt comfortable with. This is the first time I've ever had plastic surgery and I must say I felt self conscious when I first when to Spirit Lift. But my hesitations disappeared as soon as I walked into their beautiful office which looks like a spa and was taken under the wing of his caring and competent staff. Jennifer at the front desk greeted me with a warm smile and coordinated my meeting first with Ana, the Patient Coordinator, to discuss the procedures, and then Dr. Erfani. Ana first listened to what procedures I was interested in having done, then explained in detail what the procedures would entail, and the cost of the procedures. Then Dr. Erfani came in and I immediately felt comfortable with him and knew he was someone I could trust to do my procedures. He studied my face, neck and eyes and went into more of the medical details on what the procedures entailed and how I would look after the procedures. He then showed me many before and after photos of his patients who have had the procedures I was interested in having. I became excited as I looked at these photos as the people all looked fantastic after the surgery. I was also impressed that these weren't Hollywood stereotypes, these were average people like me who just wanted to look better. They ranged in age from their 30s to 70s. I was very enthused at having both procedures done, but even with the discount they were offering me, it was still a bit more than I could afford to pay at the time of the procedures. Dr. Erfani said they offer reasonable financing. After hearing the details, which I did consider quite reasonable, I made an appointment for the surgery. I must say that I thought about canceling the appointment several times as I was getting cold feet. However, this was a great time, work wise for me to have it done, and I just knew Dr. Erfani would do a good job so I did it!. Dr. Erfani really made me feel I was in good hands the day of surgery. As you can imagine, I was quite nervous. His assistant Miguel, also did a fabulous job of keeping me calm. Jennifer also was in the surgery room and let me hold her hand throughout the procedure to resassure me that everything was fine and I was doing great. Dr. Erfani even called me that night to make sure I was doing okay and to see if I had any concerns or questions. How many doctors do that! As I wasn't able to drive myself home from surgery, and I didn't want to ask my boyfriend to take a day off from work, I hired Bruce, at California Chauffeur to pick me up at home and drive me to Spirit Lift the day of surgery, and then and drive me home after the surgery. Spirit Lift has arranged special pricing with him as quite a few of their patients use his services. Bruce was wonderful and I was so glad I hired him. I'm thrilled with the results and feel beautiful. I'm also getting lots of compliments from people. Even my dermatologist (who is a respected doctor at Scripps Clinic) told me this morning at my annual skin check that not only do I look great, but that Dr. Erfani did a great job. Dr. Erfani uses state of the art procedures which I'm sure contribute to the great results he has with his patients. He also has outstanding credentials and training and has performed over 3,000 facelifts! I was also impressed that he recommended I take Arnica Montana, a homeopathic remedy to reduce brusing from the surgery. It worked great and I hardly had any bruising. He is one of the few plastic surgeons in the area who are open enough to recommend taking this. I highly recommend Dr. Erfani and am so glad to have found him. read more

I needed a scar on my left eyelid removed, and this was the perfect place for me. It's a small facility, but it is in fact a knowledgeable and professional one. On top of that, the staff is full of welcoming, easygoing people who will talk you through how everything works and what will happen. I expected to pay MUCH more than I did for the procedure I underwent, but I was completely satisfied with its results. Really cannot complain about anything here. read more

I have had only great results and love working with Doctor Erfani. I am a 66 year old and thought it was time to get info on the Spirit Lift for the lower portion of my face and neck. Do not regret it! Had my lift done 3 weeks ago and already loving the results. Doctor and staff were wonderful. You must follow all instructions before and after the surgery. The cost was very reasonable and even my husband agreed money well spent. I am now having Botox done between my eyebrows and around my mouth area. Feeling great and will continue going to Spirit Lift for my skin care and products!! read more

I did my research and decided on this place for filler. I look worse :( the staff was great but it is what it is

I have been searching all over San Diego for a laser treatment center that was right for me and finally found one in Spirit Lift Chula Vista. Nice location (check) smart and dependable staff (check) great doctor who listens to all your questions and goes above and beyond fantastic service (CHECK!) I visited the office today for the Co2 Fractional treatment. I have moderate acne scars on my face They started off with applying numbing cream on the area they planned to laser. The procedure itself didn't hurt as much as I anticipated. I would compare it to getting lightly snapped in the face with a rubber band, didn't hurt any more than getting your eyebrows waxed. Dr. Sadi made me feel very comfortable throughout the treatment and even asked me if I was comfortable several times. The entire visit lasted no more than 2 hours. I was a little nervous at first (as anyone would be before any procedure) but I'm so happy I had this done. I'm so excited to see the results! read more

I am 1 week post-op from getting my facelift, neck lift and upper blephs. I am so happy with the results so far. Dr. Erfani and his entire staff made me feel very comfortable with every step of the procedures. I was very nervous on the day of the procedure but totally put at ease by his staff. His nurse held my hand and was always there massaging my legs which made me feel so relaxed. Dr. Erfani is very interested in making sure you understand each step of the procedure from beginning to end. I will be going back for my lower blephs in a few weeks and also IPL photofacial to top off the icing on the cake! I am so looking forward to my next visit as I know I will be in the best hands possible. Thank Dr. Erfani and all of your staff! read more

Dr. Erfani, I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you and your staff for the wonderful care you gave me when I had my surgery almost two years ago. The care facility was great! You made me feel so comfortable I had no doubt in my mind that this was the right decision. Dr. Erfani, you ARE the best and you have a way about you that made me feel so at ease and safe and I thank you for that!!! I love my new face. Dr. Erfani, I will highly recommend you to anyone that is considering surgery. Thank you so much for making this decision so easy for me and for the special care I felt from you and your staff CB read more

When I originally decided on a "face upgrade", I scheduled with 3 different doctors. Dr. Erfani was the first, and after meeting with him for a compimentary consultation, I cancelled my appointment with the others. From the very first meeting, I felt totally confident that I had chosen correctly. I have always had dark undereye circles which required lots of coverup. After the natural "fat filler" procedure followed up by two CO2 laser treatments. Now I don't even need the cover up. In fact, my skin looks so good that I even feel comfortable not wearing any makeup when I run errands. I got the desired results that it looks totally natural. So my original impression proved to be the correct one. I cannot recommend Dr. Erfani high enough for results and quality of care. (I am 60). read more

Dr. Erfani and his wife truly care about their patients. Dr. Erfani is the best plastic surgeon I've visited. Even if it is just xeomin injections, he takes his time with you, remembers you, and makes you feel like family. His laser facial resurfacing works wonders! I def recommend if you have any scarring from acne or just need a refreshed look. read more

I absolutely love the work Dr. Erfani did. The results are amazing, I'm very happy with the way my body looks. The staff are curteous and caring. Thank you so much Dr.Erfani. read more

I met Dr Erfani in Dec 2009. He did Spirit Lift, lower eyes and laser. I am so happy with the results. I look and feel 10 years younger. I was so happy I went back 4 weeks ago for the upper eyes. Due to my amazing results 3 cousins, my sister and 7 friends have also been to him. We are all extremely satisfied with our new looks. I have seen other doctors work that took away the person's facial character. This hasn't happened to any of my family and friends or me. Thank you Dr. Erfani for EVERYTHING! read more

My family & I have had the best service (fat transfer, mid face lift, eye brow lift & photo facial) & results with Dr. Erfani. He's conservative, no ego, has excellent sense of humor & follow ups with phone call. We love the staff & would like to see an office up north. read more

Shortly after I posted my first review the Dr. Called and asked that I come in for another facial. I was very hesitant but I'm so glad I did. He met with me briefly and Hilda completed a facial. She was amazing! My skin never looked better. I was freaking glowing!!! It was a much different experience than the first time. I give Dr. Efani 4 stars for caring enough to call in the first place. As for Hilda everyone is entitled to a bad day she apologized and definitely made up for it :) read more

I came to see Dr. Erfani to have him remove a few "dog ears" on my hips, which were a result of a little added weight on my hips after another surgery elsewhere (and a C-section). He and his staff are awesome!! With warm greetings and sincere care, his nurse explained all to me carefully and honestly. Dr. Erfani also met with me each time and answered all concerns very well. He explained exactly what to expect and how long it would take to heal so that I could plan my surgery with him. I went in to have liposuction done on just the little dog ears and not only did Dr. Erfani completely remove them (hooray!!), he did MORE than what I expected! Wow!! I love the results and I really appreciate the way all of his staff have supported me throughout the process of liposuction on my hips. His office manager is very kind and his staff are friendly and yet still very professional. I actually healed a lot faster than expected as well. I will definitely be back to see him if the need arises. I have been telling my friends about him and already have a friend who is going in to see him to remove a mole on her back. I am very happy with Spirit Lift. Thank you! read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Erfani's for almost one year. I had experienced "bad Botox" by another Dr. and had decided never to do it again. After seeing results of the Lifestyle lift by Dr. Erfani on a friend and then Botox on another friend I decided to give it another try. What a difference, first there was a professional consultation and an explanation of how much I would be injected with and why. The result was almost immediate and the smoothness of my skin was natural looking. I am a regular patient now, I go for my follow-ups and most recently Dr. Erfani explained the differences between Botox and Xeomin. I had Xeomin injected and once again immediate results. Dr. Erfani's knowledge, professionalism and caring manner will put you at ease. His staff is friendly and knowledgeable, the facility is clean, beautiful and welcoming. Highly recommended. read more

I am 65 years old and the outcome was fabulous. I asked Dr. Erfani questions and he explained the procedures and the out come. He made my jowls look natural and youthful. I get so many compliments on my appearance as to how refreshed I look and everyone who knows about the procedure comments on how natural and how I don't have the pulled or facelift look. read more

Truly amazing. I had a neck lift less than a month ago and friends and family are amazed at the difference, even in this short period. Indeed it is a Spirit Lift seeing my reflection no longer with the tired look that masked my energetic self. Dr Erfani has a most professional, relaxed manner. He took his time explaining the procedure and gently showed me how I would look. He answered all of my questions so I felt comfortable placing my trust in his capable hands. His staff is most helpful. Moreover the atmosphere inside of his facility is tranquil. My rate of recovery has been fabulous and throughout I had ample support. I highly recommend him. I love my Spirit Lift, it looks incredibly natural now when friends who haven't seen me for a while say, "you haven't changed" they really mean it. Jackie Z read more
