“I came into his office not knowing exactly what I wanted, but he patiently answered my questions, laid out my options, and let me make my decision without any clear influence.”

From the reviews

I have been a patient of Dr. Albert Chow for over 10 years, and I can confidently say he is one of the best plastic surgeons out there. His thoroughness and extensive knowledge in cosmetic procedures are truly impressive. Dr. Chow is incredibly detailed and takes the time to listen to his patients’ needs.

★★★★★ — Donna, Feb 2025

He is amazing, after a thorough review, he correctly diagnosed my problem as a nasal cartilage collapse. He took cartilage from my ear and rebuild my nose. After only one month I can breath extremely well. He is professional, patient and courteous and answers all questions. His staff is also courteous.

★★★★★ — Julie, Nov 2015

Dr. Chow is sincerely collaborative, genuine, comforting, and great at what he does! I came into his office not knowing exactly what I wanted, but he patiently answered my questions, laid out my options, and let me make my decision without any clear influence. I loved working with him. I also LOVE my chin.

★★★★★ — Noa, Feb 2024

Overview: I have been going to Dr. Chow and his office since I was a teen, with permission from my mother. I got rhinoplasty when I was 18. I have gotten under eye filler twice, juvederm in my lips and botox on my face. Dr. Chow also performed my breast augmentation about 10 years ago.

Researching a tummy tuck?

A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is major surgery with real risks and a recovery that usually runs several weeks — this page is a starting point for finding a surgeon, not medical advice. The most useful next step is a consultation, where a surgeon reviews your health history, examines you, talks through your options, and gives a personal quote. Bring questions and don't rush the decision.

Questions worth asking: Are you board-certified in plastic surgery (and can I verify it)? Where would you operate, and is the facility accredited? Can I see before-and-after photos of your own patients? What are the risks and the realistic recovery timeline for me? What's your revision policy if something needs adjusting? Whatever a listing says, always verify certification directly with the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) at abplasticsurgery.org, and discuss your candidacy, risks, and recovery with the surgeon.
