From the reviews

I was referred to AI Plastic Surgery by my daughter’s godmother and I will be forever grateful! I had saline breast implants done by another surgeon 15 years ago and for 15 years I was so insecure, in pain, and my breasts looked very abnormal. I was not comfortable in a swimsuit or even being with my spouse. When Dr.

My experience with Dr. Kim has been nothing but positive! I was referred to her by two of my friends who had amazing results and I wanted the same for myself. I was so impressed with Dr. Kim and the entire staff at Advanced Institute of Plastic Surgery right from the start. They were so efficient and professional.

★★★★★ — Caitlyn, Jun 2024

Absolutely obsessed. I chose to have a lift and augmentation done and could not be happier with the results. At this point it has been 6 months since I had my surgery. First, everyone is so friendly and helpful. Dr Kim is so patient, informative, and great “bedside” manner.

★★★★★ — Britta, Aug 2023

I am 8 months out from my mommy makeover (tummy tuck and enhancment) and I couldn't be happier with my results. I did a lot of research (reading reviews and photos) before I decided with Dr.Kim from start to finish she has taken her time with me and understood exactly what I wanted.

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.
