From the reviews

Dr. Tseng performed a tummy tuck and breast reduction for me. And I am extremely happy with the results. When I went to his office for the pre-op, I was very nervous regarding the surgery. Dr. Tseng explained everything thoroughly and put me totally at ease.

★★★★★ — Redondo, May 2017

I chose Dr Tseng because of the high reviews and the positive comments I saw when I was searching for a Doctor to perform DIEP flap reconstruction. I was 100% pleased and satisfied with my choice. I scheduled a consultation with Dr. Tseng two weeks after I finished treatment for breast cancer.

★★★★★ — Maryann, Mar 2023

I had a bilateral mastectomy in June 2017 and have been under the care of Dr. Charles Tseng for my reconstruction. I could not be happier with the care that Dr. Tseng and the rest of his team at UCLA Santa Monica Breast Center have provided. The treatment provided is nothing short of world-class. Dr.

Dr. Tseng was is an amazing and skilled surgeon. I had a double masectomy that Dr. Tseng assisted with, then performed a DIEP procedure to reconstruct my breasts. I never felt rushed when I was talking with him. His service is above and beyond 5 star. My results are incredible.

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.
