From the reviews

I wish I could give him 10 stars! Dr Mills is truly the best! I live in Santa Monica and after speaking with/researching three other plastic surgeons in Beverly Hills, which would have been a much easier commute for me, I decided on Dr Mills.

★★★★★ — Ashley, Feb 2019

I can’t say enough about Dr Mills and his staff. Having finally made the decision to get a facelift, I had no idea what to expect or what was involved. I set about doing research on Plastic Surgeons in my area and immediately came upon Dr Mills.

★★★★★ — Vivian, Jul 2025

I had such a great experience with Dr. Mills! I really appreciated his thoughtful approach — he took the time to ask what I wanted, what my main concerns were, and what my hopes were for the outcome, rather than just telling me what he thought should be done.

★★★★★ — Danielle, Oct 2025

This was my second surgery with Dr. Dan Mills, and once again, he exceeded all expectations. I had my breast augmentation done by him, and the results are absolutely incredible — natural, beautifully proportioned, and exactly what I wanted. Dr. Mills’ skill, precision, and attention to detail are unmatched.

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.
