From the reviews

I suffered a broken nose due to tripping on a cracked sidewalk on South Pasadena. Huntington Hospital suggested Dr. Laksman as a plastic surgeon that could reset my nose. I understand he specializes in hands and wrists but I’m very happy to have had him as my nose surgeon.

I have been going to Dr. Lakshman for ten years now for my Botox treatments. Recently, I have started including fillers in my visits as well. I can confidently say that I trust no one else but Dr. L for any of my cosmetic procedures. He is a true professional, kind, and has a great sense of humor.

Thank you so much, Dr. Shankar Lakshman! To be honest, unfortunately, many doctors I’ve encountered here in LA area seem cold-hearted and unwilling to take on any unnecessary responsibility, following the strict rules they’re given. However, with Dr.

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.
