About this practice
What patients say again and again
“Elaine took the time to listen to my concerns, thoroughly explain my treatment options, and answer all of my questions without ever making me feel rushed.”
From the reviews
I had an excellent experience with Dr. Elaine Lim and their team. From the moment I walked in, the staff was warm, efficient, and welcoming. Dr. Elaine took the time to listen to my concerns, thoroughly explain my treatment options, and answer all of my questions without ever making me feel rushed.
Dr. Loo took the time to thoroughly listen and address all of my concerns. I never felt rushed during the appointment, and she explained everything clearly. The staff was equally impressive — their follow-up and communication have been outstanding. Overall, an excellent experience from start to finish.
Commendation: I have been seeing Patricia for the last 16 years. I am writing to express my sincere appreciation for the outstanding I have received from Patricia Loo. I cannot say enough good things about her. Patricia is truly awesome.
Dr. Aires is a fantastic doctor in every regard: his knowledge, treatments, and professionalism are impeccable; he communicates and explains everything clearly and patiently; and, on top of that, he is friendly, approachable, and funny—a style and manner that make him very likable and put me completely at ease.
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.
