Cosmetic Enhancements That Work! - San Francisco, CA

Juvederm
"I’ve been a client of Dr. M since 2004 (age 40). I receive facial mole removal and Juverderm injection treatments. During each visit, Dr. M administered treatment with excellent bedside manners, responsive professionalism, and a precise level of skill and knowledge. I am so satisfied with Dr. Mabries’ cosmetic services that I travel from Indiana to California to receive his services. I have recommended my mother who is also extremely satisfied with Dr. M’s services."

Great Bedside Manner, Sets Realistic Expectations - San Francisco, CA

Restylane
"I have shopped sought opinions from a handful of surgeons, seeking their professional opinions on various procedures, from rhinoplasty to botox. I ended up choosing Dr. M for restylane filler. He takes the time to really explain the pros and cons, and he sets realistic expectations. I am completely satisfied with my results and have already booked my next appointment with him. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to my friends and family."

Natural Looking Results

Perlane
"He works conservatively, starting with a little bit and then adding more if necessary. He also gave me a free try for botox and I loved it! I got one syringe of perlane for around 700 and the second syringe for 400."

My New Nose Without the Surgery - San Francisco, CA

Non Surgical Nose Job
"I did my research prior to considering the actual rhinoplasty and I'm glad I did. Non-surgical rhino is so much more worth the down time. Dr. M will talk you through the process, and you can see the results that second. If a touch up is needed, you can fill until you are perfectly content with the shape and size. Great doctor and staff! Highly recommend!"

"I've been a patient of Dr. M's since Sept. 2010. I'm 28 years old, and already starting to see the signs of aging. I came in for a consultation to find out what he can do to treat the wrinkles that have formed above my eyebrows. He listened to my concerns, and told me about Botox, and omg - it's done wonders! I love it :D I love it so much that I brought my mom in to have the same treatment. We are both so pleased with our treatments. Thank you, Dr. M!!"

A Doctor Who is Friendly, Patient, Willing to Listen, Open to Suggestions, Caring and Especially Skillful - San Francisco, CA

"I moved to SF in 2004. I used to live in the midwest where I had a plastic surgeon that I trusted a lot. So i was very concerned about finding the best doctor in the city. After doing some research I decided to go see Dr. M. First impressions are really important to me, so when I was introduced to him I noticed right away he was friendly, pleasant and especially willing to listen and open to suggestions. After my first appointment, I felt so comfortable with him that I didn't hesitate to schedule some botox and filler injections. Those procedures went so well, no bruissing or swelling and the results were amazing! really natural. And believe me, I am a perfectionist so I mean it when i say AMAZING AND NATURAL. After a couple of months I expressed to Dr Mabrie that maybe a chin enhancement would make my face look better. He agreed with me. He explained me the risks and told me what my expectations from surgery should be. A few weeks after that meeting I had a chin implant..... the results were incredible. After that procedure I realized Dr. Mabrie was just the best doctor I could've ever found. A doctor who is friendly, patient, willing to listen, open to suggestions, caring and especially skillful and well prepared at what he does. At this point I would never see any other plastic surgeon. If you are new at this or want to change doctors, give Dr. Mabrie a chance, you will not be dissapointed! I also need to give 5 stars to his staff, over the past 6 yrs my experience with them has been awesome. The current staff, Olivia and Jeffrey are the best. Really friendly and willing to accomodate the patients' needs at all times. The results I obtain everytime I visit Dr. M meet all my exectations. I hve never been dissapointed."

Perlane Injections Did Wonders - San Francisco

Perlane
"Dr. Mhas a excellent eye for beauty. He is also on the conservative side and does not like to inject you excessively. I was very happy with my Perlane injections but wanted a tad bit more for my parentheses. He told me he didn't feel I needed it, but with my insistence, he complied. There was extra left over which he put into my lower lip. My lips look so much better and VERY natural! I would recommend him to anyone. I wish I seen him years ago."

Dr. Has Amazing Skills! San Francisco, CA

Restylane
"I've been a patient of Dr. M for over 6 years. His filler and Botox technique is amazing! I've had treatments under the eye and most recently the upper cheek area. I look refreshed and feel like I'm staying ahead of the aging curve. I'm in my early 40's and feel good on the inside and out. Dr. M helps with the "out"!"

All Injections Are Not Equal - San Francisco, CA

"I was very nervous about my procedures because other members of my family have had bad injections that have really disturbed their faces. Also, I know that the injections cost more with a plastic surgeon than a dermatologist, which I wasn't sure how to justify at first. I have to tell you, the artistry with which I got my fillers put in is not available with any derm that I know of. This man is an artist of the face and knows it inside and out, and that makes a huge difference. I look so rested it's like I never had children or 8 years of disturbed sleep from them! I love this. Also, he evened out my face, this never would have occurred to me, but man I look prettier!"
