I recently underwent EnBloc Breast Explant surgery performed by Dr. Swistun, and I am compelled to share my overwhelmingly positive experience. From the initial consultation to the post-operative care, Dr. Swistun and his entire staff demonstrated a level of professionalism, expertise, and genuine care that far exceeded my expectations. Dr. Swistun's bedside manner is truly remarkable. His genuine empathy and understanding of Breast Implant Illness (BII) immediately put me at ease. Throughout the entire process, he never appeared rushed and consistently took the time to address all my concerns and questions. The thoroughness of his consultation was not only educational regarding breast implant illness and its symptoms but also highlighted the positive impact of explant surgery on improving overall health. On the day of surgery, Dr. Swistun continued to exhibit the same level of empathy and care. His reassuring words before the procedure helped alleviate any anxiety I had. The staff surrounding him were not only professional but also friendly, creating an atmosphere that contributed significantly to my comfort throughout the entire process. The post-operative appointments were equally impressive. Dr. Swistun ensured I was well-informed about the healing process and provided clear guidance on what to expect. His attention to detail in explaining potential signs and symptoms during recovery underscored his commitment to his patients' well-being. Having undergone four previous breast surgeries for implant complications with other doctors, I embarked on a thorough search for an expert in EnBloc and BII. Dr. Swistun stood out among the five plastic surgeons I consulted. His skill in the art and science of plastic surgery, particularly in breast surgery, was evident. Equally important were his trustworthiness, empathy, and reasonable pricing. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found Dr. Swistun. Without hesitation, I can assert that he is the best doctor I have ever had. My experience with him and his team has been nothing short of exceptional, and I am grateful for the positive impact he has made on my health and overall well-being. In summary, if you are seeking a highly skilled and compassionate plastic surgeon for EnBloc Breast Explant surgery, Dr. Swistun is the epitome of excellence in the field. I wholeheartedly recommend him and his team to anyone considering a similar journey.... (Show more)

If I could give Dr. Salazar 100 stars, I would. I am not an easy patient and this is not my first time having cosmetic surgeory. From start to finish my expectations were beyond exceeded by both Dr. Salazar and his world class team. Having worked with other surgeons in the past, I was always left at best surprised or at worst traumatized by surgeory outcomes. Dr. Salazar listened closely to what MY dream outcome would look like and turned that into a reality. I’m over the moon with the results and with him as an awesome human in general. I only wish I had found him sooner. Don’t make the same mistake I did, start with the best…and this guy’s the best!... (Show more)

Cameron is not only an incredible cosmetic dermatologist but she has a passion for teaching her clients and educating them about skin care. She has taught me so much about steps to take to protect my skin and prevent further wrinkles and damage. She truly cares and gets excited about sharing her knowledge of skin care and recommending products, facials, and routines for her clients. I love seeing her, her passion and warmth and friendliness is infectious!... (Show more)

I had some problem areas but did not want to have a surgical procedure. I tried CoolSculpting and am already seeing results. Jhang Nguyen at LJCMS always exceeds expectations.

Sandi Shaner - a year ago - Review Provided by Google Maps

Hi Sandi! We are so happy that you are already seeing results from your CoolSculpting treatment with Khanh! It's exciting to watch things improve over time. We look forward tor helping you achieve the results you are looking for! 💖 ~ Monique :) Monique

After several weeks, do not see improvements after threading work (which cost over 3K). Disappointed.

Patricia Ariadne - a year ago - Review Provided by Google Maps

Hi Patricia, I am sorry you are disappointed, but I would encourage you to have patience. Threads take time to do their job. Some of the threads take weeks, and some take months, as your body is stimulated to produce collagen in different areas. We encourage you to schedule a follow up visit with our team so we can take progress photos. Our goal is for you to be happy. 💛 ~ Monique
