Andrew P. Ordon, MD

amazing! I went in for a boxtox consultation and came out with botox injections. The proceedure was fast, simple and painless. the staff was amazing and very friendly. Very professional nurse and doctors. I highly recommend . I will be back. I love my results.

I had rhino/septoplasty as well as an open reduction of septal and nasal fracture one month after breaking my nose. While I had always wanted a different looking nose (my nose was crooked and I had an obvious deviated septum), I could not find a doctor I felt comfortable with. After I broke my nose, the surgery was no longer optional. I began doing serious research on physicians. I found Dr. Ordon and Dr. Chopra through New Beauty magazine. I had gone to other plastic surgeons previously, but was always given an expensive plan that included a lot of procedures I did not want. Dr. Ordon and Dr. Chopra had photos and decryption a in New Beauty magazine that showed great results, so I decided to make an appointment.

After meeting with Dr. Ordon, I was completely sold. While he is a celebrity and TV doctor, he is extremely down to earth and knows his stuff. Because I am in law enforcement, I did an extremely thorough review of Dr. Ordon and decided he was the right doctor. I was not wrong.

While in his office for the initial consultation, I asked him about doing a mini facelift at the same time as the nose surgery. He was great at telling what he would and would not do without pushing anything on me. We agreed on a temporal rhytidectomy (additional charge). On our second meeting I asked about doing a fat transfer at the same time to add a little fat back under the eyes. Dr. Ordon agreed that the time to do it was when we were doing the other surgeries.

Dr. Ordon's staff is awesome. Mandy, the patient representative is available 24/7 to answer questions or to run things by Dr. Ordon. She literally responded on weekends an evenings to all my crazy questions. And because my dad died after hernia surgery, I had a lot of questions!

The surgery center was great and easy to get to. Dr. Ordon's office convinced me to go to Serenity aftercare in Santa Monica for the first night after surgery, as I have a three year old and a puppy at home, and I am so glad I did! Because of the previous nose trauma and the depth of the repair needed, I had quite a bit of pain. Dr. Ordon's associate, Dr. Orlando, came over ASAP to Serenity and created a pain management plan immediately. The nurses stuck to his schedule and the next day I felt immediately better.

Serenity took me back to Dr. Ordon the next day for my post op checkup and all was well. Three days later I had another checkup and was much better. I had another post op visit around one or two weeks later. I recently had my one month visit and was shown my before photos. The turkey neck and jowls that bugged me are completely gone! I am so happy with the results and so glad I did the surgeries. My nose is finally straight, slimmer and slightly turned up. Because I had the previous trauma, my eyes were more swollen and bruised than other patients apparently. At one month and a few days, they are still a little bruised, but nothing a little cover-up can't cure. I realize it will take months before I see the final results for both the nose and face, but I am already thrilled. The only thing I was not really prepared for, even though I should have been as all their literature told me I would be, was how tired I was. It did get me out of all housework though!

The morning of the surgery, I gave Dr. Ordon two tasks. The first was to keep me alive and the second was to make me look better than I did before I came in. He accomplished both with a great bedside manner at the same time. I look forward to seeing Dr. Ordon and Mandy at each visit. Another great thing about his practice is that he has Dr. Orlando and Dr. Chopra up to speed on your surgery so they are available if he is out of the office. They are very friendly and welcoming at every visit.

My mom, who said she would never have plastic surgery after my dad died from surgery, is already trying to plan her facelift and she lives in another state.
Friends and co-workers keep asking me to take them to Dr. Ordon when they are ready as they love the results.

I was very concerned when I first got in to this that I might not pick the right doctor, that I might look horrible after, and that I might waste my money. As a mom of three kids, I could not afford to throw money away. Thankfully, I picked the right doctor and practice. They have been awesome all the way through the process. Couldn't be happier.

I will post some before and after photos so reviewers can make up their own minds. Frankly, I had done a lot of research, prior to my surgery on this website and found the photos way more valuable than people's comments.

Feeling great. Loving Dr. Ordon and his whole office. He takes the time to listen to all my nitpicking and either reassures me it will go away (always right) or fixes it. They are so accommodating with my crazy schedule. They always make my appointments work. My favorite thing is my neck. Couldn't be happier. Doing the Clear and Brilliant treatments as well. Really like how they are making my skin feel and look. Took away all my melasma. Still waiting to see final nose results but happy so far. Whole staff is really dedicated.

It has been 10 months since my surgery. I am mostly happy, but have a few concerns/things that bother me. I was hoping the tip of my nose would be much more refined than it has turned out. I feel like it has a big ball on the end. Hoping it will slim down and refine, but being 10 months in I am thinking it will. There is also some scar tissue inside that blacks my breathing.

From the fat transfer under my eyes, I have had some lumps that the PA Rob has been working to fix and seem to be getting much better. He has been awesome. And unfortunately, it seems the fat transfer did not take under my eyes. They look really sunken. Not sure if fillers are the answer. A different plastic surgeon suggested some laser to melt the fat that was put in, another laser to tighten under the eyes, then filler to the tune of 10k. That's just not in the budget, and frankly I am not sure that is the answer. Dr. Orden suggested some type of lower eye surgery, but I don't think excess skin is the problem. I am bummed out by how they look now. I don't think I would do the fat transfer again, if I had it to do over.

I am also not loving how one of my ears looks completely different from how it used to, and from the other one. The stitching and healing wasn't the same for each ear. Hoping Dr. Ordon can do something to fix the issue. Also wondering how long my face will feel numb/tingly. Ten months seems like a long time, but I really have no idea how long it takes to heal.

I am really happy with my neck and like my nose, just wish I had been more clear during the consultation on what I wanted it to look like. I have read some reviews on this site where people have taken photos of what they like and photos of what they don't like to the doc, just to be clear, and I really wish I had done that.

The staff at Dr. Ordon & Dr. Chopra's office is fantastic. Rob has really listened to all my complaints and tried to address each nit picky issue he can. Natalie makes everything a breeze to schedule. With my crazy job I have to reschedule or book at the last minute and she always makes it work, and is always a pleasure to deal with. Very happy with the practice overall. Just a few surgical issues I am not loving, but hoping time will make them better.

Beautiful result, so happy and grateful Dr Ordon was able to fix my lip (inverted vermillion). The procedure was done under dental block. I did not experience very much pain at all and the healing process was easy. For the first few days it was a bit difficult to eat without stretching my lip but by a week post I had no trouble at all. Dr. Ordon is so talented. I am extremely pleased with the result.

I had an amazing experience being on the Television show The Doctors. Dr. Ordon did an amazing job by looking under the scope to see the mucus and nasal problems I was having! I have went to numerous doctors in Mississippi and noone seemed to know what was causing my mucus problems or sinus pressure. Dr. Ordon and my allergist found I was allergic to pretty much all trees, plants, weeds. This was very helpful to know and now I take a prescription nose spray called Dymista every morning and night for my sinuses. I am so blessed that I had the opportunity for them to help me find my problem and help cure it. I couldn't ask for better care. I am truly feeling a lot better and believe this was an experience of a life time.

I wasn't sure about the surgery, Then I had it done and I went though a lot, I dont like pain I deal with it, I'm still swollen, And tender and know I'm on the recovery part, I wish it just heal fast, So, I can go on to my normal active, These bruise are taking slow to go away, I keep up the progress of my healing,

Ok, its been 11 months know and everything is going good, and looks nice,, Going for my 12 mth, checkup In July., I'm still getting use to it, I really dont have much to say, But I will let you know after i go for my 12 mth check up,,I cant get any of my pic,

I had a belt lipectomy in Oct 2013. This is where they removed all the excess skin from around my abs, flanks, and lower back area. Over the past 15 years I had lost approx 50 lbs and, although I was in great shape, there was nothing I could do (in terms of diet and physical exercise) to get rid of the excess skin. I don't recommend this procedure for people who are not in great physical shape beforehand. The recovery period is hard and you must have 4 solid weeks to recover AND I did not even have to get my stomach muscles tied! Had I not been in great shape and had my abs not been rock solid (before my surgery I was up to 4 spin classes a week at Soul Cycle, 2 Pilates classes per week and 1 yoga class per week plus my vegan diet) - they would have had to "tie " my stomach muscles together (very common with most tummy tucks and mommy makeovers) and the recovery would have been 2x as painful I am sure. Most of the the time, they end up tightening the stomach muscles and tie-ing up any hernias (which they did for me too but not painful).

I did not have a lot of pain after the first 2 weeks (plus I was hopped up on Percocet and then Vicodin for 13 days) -it was just very uncomfortable and you really have to give yourself time to take it easy.

I orginally had 3 drains put in and the last drain was removed 13 days after my surgery. I think I pre-maturely threw the pain pills out after my 3rd drain was removed (because I am 15 yrs sober and they were making me crazy......) and for 3 days after, it was difficult. I started taking Vitimin B5 to sleep and that helped. Overall I managed all the pain with Extra Strength Tylenol and Aleve.

What they don't tell you... Is you are very tired and need to rest for a solid 4 weeks! This is coming from a Type A personality who was in great shape without getting her stomach muscles tied. I imagine it would probably take most people 6 weeks.

Here is what they don't tell you to prepare for the surgery and thereafter:

Get a fantastic pillow set from Relax the Back or somewhere comparable. See link:

This is essential because you have to sleep on your back for 3 solid weeks and if you don't have a proper pillow/leg set- you will have major back aches. If you are prone to back problems (like I am) it is also important to tell your DR and nurses to put a pillow under your knees during surgery or you will come out of it with intense back pain!

The other thing you need to do is get some really great underwear that can come up over the surgical tapes and incisions. I suggest Jockey for women. You want them big enough that they come up to cover the back stitches. Before my surgery I was a size 6 but I was wearing size 7 Jockey underwear after the surgery. This is important because the Abdominal Binder they make you wear moves up and down and if there is not underwear over the incisions, it will "peel" the surgical tapes and this is painful and very uncomfortable. I also got some "wife beaters" to wear and I tucked them in under the Abdominal Binder and over the underwear. If you can keep the tapes in place (they only need to be changed every 4 or 5 days or so and last in the shower...) then you are golden and you will heal quicker. If the tapes are moving, it scrapes the incisions and the scabs come off and you get "blisters."

I also bought some Spanx. Although very tight and not the most comfortable thing to wear (how do fat people stuff their fat in these and wear them all night!?!) - they allowed me to finally start going back to work and get out. I was able to get out with the abdominal binder but only to get my nails done, AA meetings, etc. I am lucky, I own my own business and worked from home for a solid 3 weeks.

You definately need 4 or 5 days after the surgery to not have to deal with anything. This recovery is brutal but I am very happy I did it and got it over with!!!

I could not be happier with my choice to choose Dr. Ordon for my rhinoplasty! From my consultation, to day of surgery, to all of my follow up appointments I have been beyond pleased! Dr. Ordon and his staff are amazing and have made me feel completely cared for! I am so pleased with my surgery results! My “new” nose is completely natural looking and I couldn’t be happier! Cherie at the front desk is awesome! You can feel comfortable asking her absolutely any questions you have and she is there to support you through the whole process. Dr. Ordon’s PA Rob is fantastic! He walks you though everything and makes you feel totally taken care of. If I decide to have any other procedures done, there is no doubt Dr. Ordon will be the one I go to!

To improve result of prior lip implant. He recommended the vermillion advancement. It was almost worse when he finished.

10 months ago, I had an upper facelift and my lower neck redone by Dr. Andrew Ordon in Beverly Hills
My lower face is fine but my neck as soon as the swelling went down there is hanging he did very little to remove the skin on my lower neck. I spent over $14,000 and this is awful plastic surgery

. I do not recommend this doctor , as he refuses to redo my neck, which is obviously Botched. I went to him after words for a check up and he stuck a little Botox in and that did nothing.

It is unethical for any plastic surgeon to do a botched surgery and refused to do a correction free of charge even in the papers that I saw him prior to surgery he has listed, he will redo a procedure. That is an even obviously, he’s not an honest man do not go to this plastic

I'm really concerned. I had a facelift, neck lift, upper eye lids done, fat injections and laser done in Feb. in California. Now as the swelling decreases, I'm looking almost as bad as before I had the lift. I took this picture in sunlight in my car, no makeup. I think I look terrible. I've got n appointment with my surgeon next week. I would appreciate feedback from surgeons.

Went to see my plastic surgeon as the results of facelift, necklift, co2, fat transfer, less than stellar. He's suppose to be a prominent and skilled surgeon . He said he needed to o several procedures over and presented me with a new estimate of charges! What now... I Can't afford more money!!!

Updated on 22 Jul 2019:
When I smile I am shocked on how bad this looks, 5 months post upper eye lift, and 5 month post 5 lift.

Disappointing outcome of facelift, neck lift, co2 fractional laser.

Updated on 1 Aug 2020:
I had my surgery on 2/08/19 bybDr. Andrew Ordon of Beverly Hills and THE DOCTORS TV SHOW. After 5 months I could see my face was not properly lifted. I saw 4 plastic surgeons in the past year who say I need a complete redo! I wasted 26,500 on this facelift that needs to be redone for an additional 25k.

Updated on 3 Aug 2020:
This procedure was performed by THE DOCTORS .... Dr Andrew Ordon of Beverly Hills and Rancho Mirage. Dr Ordon is famously referred to as the doctor of the stars. He fixed my face like a star... for a horror movie! This is an abomination of his famous or infamous O LIFT!

Dr Ordon performed his O LIFT, CO2 Laser, Fat Injection, $25,600. Within a few months my face, jowls, wrinkles, neck were hanging. Dr. Ordon said I needed to pay an additional $8700 to have a SKIN lift. I went to 4 other plastic surgeons to have a completely new Facelift surgery as the O lift was a total failure. I look worse than when I started. I'm out 26,500 need $30,000 to fix this mess. Microsurgeon plastic surgery center at UCLA days $30,000 plus 6 hours surgery to fix the bad surgery.

Facelift, neck lift, co2 laser, by Dr. Andrew Ordon from THE DOCTORS Show. He did a horrible incomplete surgery that needs to be redone after visiting 4 doctors and UCLA Plastic Surgery Center. I paid Ordon $26,000 and acknowledged it was not lifted enough but wanted $8700 MORE to only lift the skin... and thousands more for radio frequency! After I refused to pay him more money for more shoddy surgery, I asked for my money back as 4 surgeons prompted me to ask as they said one of the worse they have ever seen . Dr Ordon then Terrified me by yelling and screaming at me in his office in front of his staff and within earshot of his waiting room. I would not recommend him and I would warn people to not deal with him. He's not right in the head nor surgical skills.
