650cc, gummy bear implants, medium build

This has been a long time coming I got my breast augmentation with Dr Ellenbogen(: about five years ago now I went from a size A cup to a DDD which was quite the jump! I got 650CC gummy bear implants under the muscle and when I awoke from surgery I was definitely in a lot of pain! That being said this was my first surgery and I was not quite anticipating the level of discomfort and pain that went along with it. I also warn you that you will more than likely go through a stage of depression realizing that you’ve changed your body and that there’s no going back And you will be so swollen that your results will not look spectacular at first and your boobs will need to drop as well as fluff so the process is just long but all in all to me worth it! Unfortunately in my case my left breast did not drop along with my right and being that I was an out of town patient I contacted the doctor with photos showing him what was going on and being the amazing doctor that he is he covered my surgery and flight to come back to town six months later and fix the issue that being one of the reasons I only gave him four stars as well as the fact that the pockets are a bit too big and my breasts seem to fall into my armpits when laying on my back which Has taken getting used too. It can be uncomfortable as hell for a while especially when my breast are heavy and going towards my armpits and laying on my back. I do not want to go back for surgery to revise the issue I will wait until I get them re-done most people say they wish they would’ve gotten bigger hence why I did 650 I originally planned on 550 but I will say that for my build and what I wanted I will definitely go a little bit smaller next time more then likely the 550 would’ve been good enough not to say I don’t love my breast because they are gorgeous!

Artist at Work

After 3 surgeries with Dr. Ellenbogen, I have come to see him as much as an artist as a technical expert. His hallmark is subtlety and his taste is impeccable so outcomes are just about as beautiful and natural as you can get. Just ask him about this and look at his pictures to see for yourself. He is gifted. He is also wonderfully kind and generous and so is his staff. I trust him totally and recommend him without hesitation.

An Artist at His Craft

Dr Richard Ellenbogen is truly an artist. He is one of the best at his craft and his professionalism is impeccable. He listen to my requests and helped me with my concerns to provide piece of mind prior to surgery . The office is very calming and the staff is very helpful and accommodating. I have gained so much confidence after having my surgery. I will be telling all of my friends and family about this incredible doctor

Lower face lift and neck lift

Dr Ellenbogen has done an exceptional job with my lower face lift and neck lift. He was able to put me at ease by explaining exactly what he was going to do. He used pictures and a photoshop program to show me before and after expectations. After surgery there is very little pain.

Great botox experience

I went to see Dr Elenborgen s for Botox. The experience was amazing from the moment I walked in until the second I left. First of all, the office space is stunning and the staffs are very professional, kind and personable. Dr Elenborgen is charming and kind who has magical hands and aesthetic taste, he is also a portrait artist, this could be a perfect combination for a cosmetic surgeon.he gave me great advice, I am very happy with the results and the overall experience. I will definitely be going back for more than just Botox next time.

Breath taking

The doctor was very informative and professional. His sense of humor was one of the best parts. I found him on the internet and from reading all the reviews I decided to go with him and to my surprise I’m very happy. I’m still recovering but excited about my work and can’t wait to show it off. I would kindly recommend him to others . If you are liking to get any work done PLEASE USE HIM

My miracle worker

I find it hard to put into words what Dr E has done for me. This man has changed my life. I once weighed over 300 lbs, and lost 172 of it. I had excessive skin that had turned me weightloss into my nightmare. My thoughts on once I lost my weight I could wear all the cute Cloths, look good at the beach... in short look good naked but nothing prepared me for my reality. I had excessive skin that hung all over my body. My body resembled a melting candle, I wasn't able to be naked comfortably wasn't able to be intimate. I was ashamed of my weight loss. In my eyes I looked worse thin than heavy, cause at least I was fat but filled out... I considered gaining half my weight back just so that I filled out my saging skin a little. In weightloss reality your end result is inevitably skin removal surgery that costs thousands of dollars, that isn't covered unless you have serious health issues due to excess skin. There was no way in my future I could see me being financially able to pay for what was now my weightloss nightmare. I contacted a few people to ask for direction or help in trying to come up with answers for those of us who had the courage and determination to be healthy but now were faced with a whole new battle financially to achieve their weightloss dream.... Dr Elenboughen stepped up when so many didn't, He selflessly took on the task of making my dream a reality. He completely transformed my body so that what I had visioned for myself was now my reality. How does one even say thank you for doing such a selfless act, just doing something from the kindness of his heart. What some pay thousands for, I was give out of kindness... this man will always have a place in my heart and never a day goes by that I don't think info him and thank him for changing my life and making my dream come true!!!! Work hard and believe.... trust that good things will happen if you don't give up and they do..... Good people still exist in this world and for me it Dr E.... xox

42 Year Old - Century City, CA

I wanted to refresh myself and look youthful. There was zero pain and I never needed to take any pain medicine. The fat grafting was done to my lower eye lids and upper eye lids - this made all the difference in the world, all the doctors in New York did not have the experience to do the fat grafting to the eye area, but Dr. Ellenbogen has experience with eye area fat grafting.

Nose *

I wish I did my nose job sooner! I didn't believe in plastic surgery until now and was so afraid to have a fake look. I was rear ended by a driver on the freeway and ended up having no choice because the accident smashed my nose. I don't know why I waited so long to do this! I always had a large bump on my nose and wanted to fix it but was afraid. The car accident was a blessing! Dr Ellenbogen was so careful to keep the character that I like on my nose. He listen to me and did exactly what I wanted! I love my nose now!!! I have had so many compliments. He also did a peel and everyone says it looks like I just got back from vacation. Now my sister is now signed up to fix the bump on her nose for next week. I guess was the family guinea pig. I am so happy I did this!! I just wish now that I did this sooner. Pictures to come once I figure out how!!!

Amazing!!! - Beverly Hills, CA

I was about to give up on my neck until I heard about Dr Ellenbogen. I had reservations and I am so thankful that I did it!!! Necklace are his specialty and now I know why everyone goes to him. I never thought I could look this young again! I have my old neck back and I love it!! I didn't realize that we don't have to age the way people used to. I wish I didn't wait so long to get this done. Dr Ellenbogen is a genius!!!!
