About this practice
“I had a mommy makeover in Tijuana and had a seroma that needed draining.”
What patients say again and again
“His consistent command of the room, his bedside manner and (again) his generosity was such an incredible breath of fresh air with everything we were going through.”
“K is kind, compassionate, thorough, skilled & explains things thoroughly happily answering any questions.”
“I can’t express enough gratitude to my plastic surgery doctor and their amazing staff for the exceptional care and expertise provided throughout my journey.”

“Together, they restored not only my confidence, but also my trust and peace of mind.”
From the reviews
I cannot recommend Dr K & his clinic enough. My 15 yr old daughter had an accident requiring 16 stitches on her forehead & eyelid. It was a jagged cut & I knew a plastic surgeon was the wisest decision. Dr K’s office got us in quickly & have been truly incredible.
Where do I start off about Dr K and his staff. For two years, I’ve researched for a “Good” Skin Professional. Someone that I felt that wasn’t just successful in their career but also cared about his patients. WOW! Dr. K handles with extreme care and educates you on every interest you have or service you’d like done.
Dr. Raffy is simply amazing. On top of being a fantastic surgeon, his knowledge, honesty and generosity have been unlike anything we’ve come across. We went to him after my six year old daughter suffered a dog bite across her nose and were referred to him by numerous people in our social network.
I had an amazing experience with Dr. Kare and his team. I went in for Botox and nose filler, and the results exceeded my expectations. My Botox came out even better than I imagined — everything looks smooth, natural, and very balanced.
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.
