Benjamin Chu, MD, FACS

I flew into town on short notice for an unrelated reason but decided to finally schedule a blepharoplasty procedure I had been wanting for a long, long time. Because of work and personal circumstances, this was my only window of opportunity, and I was on a very tight, almost unrealistic, timeline. I contacted the Benjamin Chu Practice the morning of my flight, explained my situation, and they went above and beyond to accommodate me. They were incredibly flexible, even rearranging their schedule to ensure everything could fit within my limited time frame. For context, I’m from Honolulu but now live out of state. I was nervous and wanted a team I could trust, one who understood Asian facial nuances and could make me feel comfortable. That’s why I specifically chose Dr. Chu, and I can confidently say it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. From the consultation to the procedure, recovery, and follow-ups, everything was an absolute 10/10. Dr. Chu, Sandy, and Nick Reyes took amazing care of me. They were gentle, honest, and attentive, and I never once felt rushed. Dr. Chu is thorough and patient, answering every question and explaining each step clearly. His and his team’s bedside manner is exemplary, and the entire experience was smooth, professional, and reassuring. I felt valued and cared for every step of the way. I’m incredibly grateful to Dr. Benjamin Chu and his team and only wish I had found them sooner. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Chu to anyone considering any cosmetic enhancement. Thank you again for everything.

Dr. Benjamin Chu and staff are phenomenal. I would recommend him over and over again. I recently had a BA done in January of 2025. Although my experience and healing journey is ongoing, from the very beginning it’s been professional and such a positive experience. Dr. Benjamin Chu offers consistent and thorough care. During our consult, everything was explained thoroughly, including the approaches he didn’t recommend for my case, the one he did and the reasons why. Any questions I had, were answered and he was very patient when choosing the perfect size for me. Surgery itself was a breeze! As for my healing journey, to each their own, I had moments where I struggled trusting the process - worried I had chosen the wrong size, both Dr. Chu and Hyun offered reassurance. And what do you know, I am about 3 months post op and I LOVE my results MORE and MORE as each day passes. Dr. Benjamin Chu understood everything I had wanted, from the size and wanting to have a natural appearance. Dr. Chu’s thoroughness does not stop once surgery is done. He explains how important the healing process is and is very detailed of the do’s and don’ts. He is truly THE BEST. Dr. Chu and Hyun, and the rest of the staff have been welcoming and have given me such a lovely experience!

I've struggled my whole life with a deviated septum and a large dorsal hump that constricted my breathing significantly and also affected my confidence. I was referred to Dr. Chu by a family friend and from the initial consultation to post surgery, I couldn't be happier with the results. Dr. Chu and his staff made me feel at ease and I felt very informed about the process and procedure leading into the surgery. It's only been 2 weeks post op and I feel great with barely any swelling and inflammation. I would highly recommend Dr. Chu to anyone needing help with similar issues. Thank you Dr. Chu and staff!

I am a repeat patient but the most recent procedures I had done by Dr Chu were a lower blepharoplasty and surgical lip lift. If you’re considering a lower blepharoplasty JUST DO IT! I would do it a hundred times over!

I had a breast augmentation with Dr. Chu in 2009 and have been very happy with the results for the past 14 years. I recently lost weight and noticed some rippling of my implants so I came back in August 2023 for a revision. My silicone implants were replaced with slightly larger, higher profile implants which has resolved the rippling issue. I am 6 weeks post-op and very happy with my results! Thank you Dr. Chu and staff!

I have always wanted to have big breasts. I was totally flat-barely an A cup! I went to two other doctors first. The first was Dr schlesinger. He told me I had tuberose breasts and we would have to go through the nipple/areola and that was my only choice. He never explained I would have to get my areolas tattooed before the procedure! No thank you! I went to see Dr Shim Ching. Very busy doctor but he said my breasts were normal and we could go through the underarm the way I wanted but because I had a pacemaker the anesthesiologist shied away from my case. I dont blame them and the doctor and staff were so professional and very apologetic. They even refunded my non refundable consultation fee of 500 dollars because they felt so bad. That was much appreciated! More than I can say for Dr schlesinger that did not refund anything! Then I heard from another friend of mine that Dr Chu was really good. Her breasts were done by him and they were beautiful! Dr Chu was so personable and speaks to you in such an easy comfortable manner. His receptionist is one of the most beautiful girls I have ever seen and when I complimented her she said its thanks to Dr chu and his work on her. I was totally sold on him after I heard that. I was worried he wouldn't want to take my case after I told him about my pacemaker but he was very interested in my condition which would make surgery difficult. The pacemaker guy would have to come out for the surgery and make sure the pacemaker was ok. Dr was very thorough and explained all my options to me. His receptionist Henny was really nice and explained everything so well. Surgery went great and my boobs came out great...although I think I should have gone a little bigger! I think Dr did am awesome job! No complications! Choose Dr chu!

I began to have sharp nerve pains in my breast and chest area from my current implants. There was no question of who I was going to contact for a consultation, as I had heard for many years from family and friends, that Dr. Chu was the best plastic surgeon anywhere. I knew I made the right decision, especially when I found out that changing my implants was going to be more complicated than I initially realized. Dr. Chu explained that mine was a difficult case (my breasts turned out to be really messed up), and that my time in surgery was going to be doubled as a result of all the work that needed to be completed. I was surprised as I changed my implants twice before, and was never told about some preexisting conditions that I had. Nor did I have much follow up care. I was younger then so survived it all lol! Though, now that I was undergoing this surgery while being older, I could really appreciate Dr. Chu’s professionalism, expertise, and detailed care for his patient’s overall health. For instance, I was never prescribed the preop work that Dr. Chu required, such as getting an EKG, chest x-ray, blood work and approval from my PCP to prepare for surgery. He also recommended that I follow strict dietary changes for a month before surgery. I felt seen and cared for as Dr. Chu spent as much time with me as was necessary to explain what my issues were. He managed to instill a full confidence in me that he had a plan of action to correct my various issues going forward. All of this to say that by the time my surgery day rolled around, I walked in fully assured of Dr. Chu’s expertise and knowledge concerning my surgery and after care. I wasn't afraid and I was at peace. Since surgery, my nerve pain has completely dissipated and Dr. Chu fixed everything wrong concerning my breasts. I couldn’t be happier with the results! Not only am I healthier now, but my breasts have never looked this good before! I thank God for Dr. Chu!

Got breast augmentation 295 cc. Started at a double an and ended up with large bs. I had breast fed so my boobs were non existent. My boobs now look natural and proportional to my body. Dr. Chu is very conservative in his approach and wants the best possible outcome. He showed up on a weekend to take out my drains and check on me. He truly wants the best and is careful. I went under the muscle and breast.

A +!!! DOCTOR CHU is on it, he’s very informative, very knowledgeable, love his work and love his staff. The reason I chose to go to dr chu was because of all the positive Feed back I heard from everyone I know who has gotten implants from him . I’ve talked to older ladies and young who has had their breast done 10-15 year ago and they said no issues and love his work. If you plan to get a breast augmentation here in Hawaii go with him! You won’t be disappointed

After a fitness setback due to injury, and then even more quarantine weight gain, I was finding it hard to lose the extra pounds that had settled around my midsection no matter how hard I worked. Dr. Chu and his staff did abdomena and flank liposuction, and got me back to looking like I did at my fittest. He was knowledgeable and kind, and best of all, effective! I look and feel better than I have in years. This was by far the best investment I've ever made in myself.
