From the reviews

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Imahara. From my very first visit, it was clear that he is a true perfectionist in the best possible way. He listens carefully, took the time to understand my goals, and explained every step of the process with clarity and patience.

★★★★★ — Lisa, Dec 2025

I had breast reduction surgery with Dr Imahara. My initial consult was so thorough and detailed I knew he was the one to do my surgery. Everyone I came in contact with at the clinic was professional and very helpful.

★★★★★ — Maria, Mar 2025

While my journey has just begun with Dr. Imahara, it has been nothing but positive. During and after my single mastectomy, he has been helpful with all information and has answered my questions. He is calm, attentive, and while he is not one to be super jovial, he has a sense of humor that I can appreciate.

★★★★★ — Nancy, Oct 2025

Scott is an excellent, experienced, kind, responsive, knowledgeable surgeon. I had a ruptured breast implant, that needed to be removed, and I also needed breast revision for both breasts. Scott did an excellent job, I am very happy with my results.

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.
