From the reviews

Feeling self conscious of my face and neck showing sagging and therefore looking tired and unattractive as I was becoming older, I wanted a facelift. I was nervous and felt very unsure of the whole procedure. I met with Cosmetic Surgeon Dr Azzi, for my initial first consultation.

★★★★★ — Carmella, Sep 2025

As a Kaiser patient I was diagnosed with ptosis, and surgery was recommended. Because I was considering eye surgery, I wanted to have my under eye bags treated at the same time, they have bothered me since childhood. I consulted with several of Kaisers oculoplastic surgeons and reviewed before and after photos.

★★★★★ — Erin, May 2022

Dr. Newman is a very personable and highly experienced plastic surgeon. He and his staff listened to my needs and concerns and took very good care of me. I can’t say enough about my positive experience.

★★★★★ — Victoria, Mar 2025

Dr. Newman provided his professional expertise and confidence in suggesting the best solutions to my issues. All with local anesthetic which was of most importance to me. No more bags under eyes and my facial skin is light and soft! I am very happy with the results. I wish I knew about Dr. Newman a year 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.
