Don't go here. I had my virgin nose done here for surgery, I thought it was fine because the bill was expensive but the work was botched, wasted time and money
I had a great experience with Doctor Karlo and his staff. They are all very kind, helpful, professional, and fun to be around. Doctor Karlo did a wonderful job doing my procedure! He is a very talented plastic surgeon. I would for sure go back to him and recommend him to others. Thank you for helping me find him. 😊... (Show more)
The doctor was unable to assist me due to my body mass. The doctor was very nice to me but sadly he was unable to help me. I guess I'm just to fat, he said I'm a great doctor but not a miracle doctor. Lol, he was too funny he cracked me up.
I had my breast augmentation in August 2018. During consultations, Dr Karlo told me that most patients regret not going bigger but I still stuck with what I had in mind even if he didn't have sizers. Come surgery time, he mentioned that it's a bit pointless to get a boob job if it's not noticeable but he still chose a modestly sized implant around 285cc. I didn't really want noticeable breasts but thought that size would help achieve the look I wanted. My recovery was not smooth sailing because the left scar kept bleeding. I also noticed my left boob fluffed later than my right one. Eventually, it bottomed out and sat lower than my right boob making bending over very uncomfortable as I feel the edge of the implant dig in my skin. Moreover, my scars are in the lower middle part of my boobs and are visible which makes me self conscious especially in saunas and when getting massages. I did have a revision in August 2019 with him to address the bottom of out. Paid additional 15,000 for it but it still had the same results. Its 2020 and my left boob sunk back to its previous level. Got a second opinion and was told the breast pocket might have been carved out lower than it should have been given my body size. All in all, I paid around 3300 USD exclusive of the maintenance meds. The upside is Dr Karlo is very responsive when you message him but now I have to do another surgery to get smaller implants, make sure they're even and have the scar much lower than they currently sit....

I like the immediate result or looks after surgery, though Im still waiting for what will be the final result or appearance after 2 weeks. As of now, I'm very satisfied with the result.
If you want to have the best result and be completely satisfied with whatever beauty surgery you want and need then you’re in the right place and surgeon. Doc, Karlo Capellan did my breast augmentation on June 19th, 2019. I’m almost one-month post-op now and I love the result, my experienced there was super comfortable and his staff are very friendly. when we were there I wasn’t even nervous - we were just excited, happy and just laughing with the staff. I felt comfortable with Dr Capellan and the moment I spoke to him I knew I made no mistake on choosing him and I will only come back to him if ever I need more surgery in the future. I’ve found a surgeon I can trust that will give me positive result with ease and comfort. Thank you again, Dr Capellan, for a successful, safe and positive result surgery with my breast augmentation.... (Show more)
It was quick and efficient. The clinic is very accessible.
I had my rhinoplasty 4 years ago (Feb of 2014). So far, my nose is still good as it was post-surgery. Except for the occasional paranoia (i.e. when I get pimples), I've never had a problem with it. As for Dr. Karlo, he is probably the most professional and accommodating doctor I know. In fact, up to this day, I still am in touch with him. He replies even when the operation happened four years ago! All in all, the rhinoplasty is one of the best decisions I ever made. I would definitely recommend Dr. Karlo if you're looking for a plastic surgeon. Worth all the money and the pain. Best clinic ever!... (Show more)
I ran an internet search to find a clinic that could do rhinoplasty. The procedure was worth the price and I’m happy with the results. At first I was nervous about the surgery, but once the healing process started, I was okay again. The nurses were very accommodating and Dr. Capellan is a great doctor.
After reading positive reviews about Dr Karlo on the WhatClinic site, I decided to have rhinoplasty done with him. It was my first time ever having an operation, but the doctor really made me feel comfortable. So far, the treatment has been good value for money - the work done has not been dislocated or anything like that. Everything at the surgery looked really modern - there’s an operating room and they’ve even got a drugstore at the facility. The doctor explained everything to me in terms of results and when to expect them. I needed two follow-ups after the operation just to remove my stitches. There were no prices online, but they emailed the prices to me when I asked. I just want to thank the doctor for this good experience because I was a little scared at the beginning, but he took such good care of me.... (Show more)
I had Alarplasty & Tipplasty surgery with this clinic. I chose Dr. Capellan because he is one of the most humble doctors I’ve seen, he is super friendly and you can Viber him 24/7 — he would always make sure to reply especially with your concerns. He is super patient NO DOUBT especially with my post op, I Viber him every day for a month sending him my updates about my nose. He replies with a positive note and calms me down. It has been 2 months and it’s the best decision I made to eliminate my insecurities with my nose. So look no further — Dr. Carlo Capellan is one of the best cosmetic surgeons out there. I’ve talked to arrogant cosmetic surgeons and Dr. Carlo is definitely not one of them. This is not a fake review.... (Show more)
I just want to say thank you so much to Doc Karlo for doing such a wonderful job on my nose. I can't thank you enough for your care throughout my entire experience at your office. I am beyond pleased with my results and overwhelmed by your patience and kindness. You have my highest recommendation for any new patient.
Made me feel at ease before the procedure and made sure I am physically and emotionally ready for the operation. He gave me a heads up of what to expect. And best of all is that he will personally contact you after the operation to check on you and make sure that you follow post op care. I definitely recommend.

Lower blepharoplasty and chin liposuction. Love the results of lower bleph. No more tired eyes. The great thing is, at two weeks post op, no one even noticed I had the procedure. Four weeks after chin lipo, jaw line became more prominent. Still have some lumps, but everything is as expected as this procedure really requires 4-6months to see the final result. I can see the gradual progress each day. Overall, no regret in getting the procedures from Doc Karlo. Thanks to him, I now look younger by like 5 years. :) Well equipped and sanitized.... (Show more)
Happy and satisfied - Davao Norte Treatment .rhinoplasty .mole extraction I am pleased with the outcome, it really look so natural. I highly recommend Dr. Karlo Capellan, he is one of the best cosmetic surgeon, whose skilled is proven. Thank you Dr. Karlo
My experience was amazing, that I can recommend the doctor as one of the best doctor for me. He's the best, what he has done to my boobs is very perfect. The size is good for my body since I'm slim. The service was absolutely good, the operating room is clean. The clinic is clean, and the nurse is very friendly and good. I just saw the clinic through online and I choose him because I feel comfortable so I visited his clinic and get more information about boobs augmentation and he explained to me everything and I like the procedure. I'm very worried about pain, but then he told me I will not feel any pain during the operation. So he told me that before the operation I must do a test for my heart and blood and x-ray, I said no problem it's for my safety anyway the next day result is good then I have my operation on that day. So they injected me the anaesthesia and after that, I don't know what's going on I been sleeping for few hours then I woke up I got boobs. I feel a bit sore but not pain just normal muscle pain. After that, I just stay there for a while and transfer to the hotel. I have my nurse with me to look after that night. And she was very nice, I like her. So the next day I go back home because I live quite far from makati that's why I decided to stay in hotel for one night with my nurse. Then they give me pain killer good for 1 week and now I'm completely fine in just 1 week I'm able to do cooking and other things. Stitches have been removed and I'm just waiting for my wound to get heal then I can start to apply the scars removal cream. The doctor will prescribe you the best medicine for scars. I'm so thankful for doctor karlo he did a great job. My boobs is looking perfect and looks natural. So for the girls there who wish to have bigger boobs then I can recommend doctor karlo, you will be satisfied and happy for the result. The fee for the surgery it's not expensive, good quality of silicon.Thank you so much.... (Show more)
Two weeks before I did my Breast augmentation procedure, Dr. Karlo discussed everything in full details. He makes sure that all required lab test are normal so you can proceed to the procedure. He feeds me with all the information that I needed and what to expect after the surgery. Dr. Karlo Capellan is truly expert with his field. I am very satisfied with the results. Truly happy indeed. Adds up more confidence to me as a woman. I am now two weeks post op and he answers all my concerns on wechat whenever i have some concerns. He is really an expert.. And rest assured you are in good hands. I highly recommend him :) The clinic is very clean. Looks very calming and relaxed environment,Well organized,the staffs are very friendly and very accomodating. The nurses often visits me in the recovery room and attends to my needs all the time....

I met Dr. Karlo Capellan last February 2015, and he explained the whole process and answer all my concerns. I was so excited and made an appointment.

The staff is friendly and very accommodating, I highly recommend this clinic, especially Dr. Karlo Capellan. Best customer service!... (Show more)
