Breast Reconstruction
15 months post-op
15 months ago, at the age of 41, I never thought I’d be visiting a plastic surgeon to discuss breast reconstruction after a bilateral mastectomy for a sudden and unexpected breast cancer diagnosis. But here I am. And I cannot imagine a single step I’ve taken in this process without the care and support I received from Dr Gupta and his team at Verve. They have treated me like a friend from my very first visit, demonstrating more compassion and kindness than I ever would have thought possible from medical professionals. From my mastectomy and reconstruction with tissue expanders and then implants, through nipple reconstruction and fat replacement, to areola tattooing with the most incredibly talented Tina, there is not a moment that they have not helped me navigate and held my hand through. While I also have had a wonderful team of oncologists, surgeons, nurses, and care providers through my hospital, it is the group of amazing humans at Verve who have been there to hug me, hold my hand before and after procedures, cry with me, laugh with me, and celebrate with me. AND never once have I felt pressured to change my body - no upselling of Botox or additional surgeries, although I’m sure they’d do them with the utmost perfection and professionalism. They’ve listened to me along the way, making sure I understood what was happening, knew the long and short term plans, and was being heard for what I wanted for my body.
Dr Gupta and his team at Verve are the people you pray will be the ones taking care of you (or someone you love) at this terrifying moment in life - and while I hope no one ever HAS to seek them out for help, it is amazing to know they will be there for us if/when we need them.
And…. my breasts now look better than anything I ever had naturally! But since the real ones were trying to kill me, I LOVE the ones Dr Gupta and Tina made sure I took home!
My hair has gotten significantly thicker PRP for Hair Loss
3 days post-op
I’ve had 3 treatments of the PRP for hair loss and the overall experience has been excellent. Alison & co were always awesome. The results have been better than I expected. This is not a miracle cure for hair loss, but my hair has gotten significantly thicker and my thinning areas have begun filled in over the period of 3ish months. I will continue to keep getting the treatments.
Response from Dr. Anshu Gupta, MD We are so happy you have had a good response to your PRP hair restoration treatments. We look forward to seeing you for your next treatment
Self Esteem Enhancer! I’m so happy with my lower facelift. No more turkey neck and the fat grafting rejuvenated my skin. I look at least 20 years younger! During the pandemic shutdown, I met a woman and we only saw each other while wearing a mask. The first time she saw me maskless, she said, “wow, I thought you were older than me! But now I assume we’re about the same age!” That woman had just turned 40 and I’m 59!!! I can’t recommend Dr. Gupta highly enough. He is warm, kindhearted, and clearly a talented surgeon. His welcoming approach trickles down to his office staff too, making the whole experience from start to finish as pleasant as possible.
Response from Dr. Anshu Gupta, MD We are so happy you are thrilled with your results. Thank you so much for writing such a kind review, we are so grateful.
Loving the Results Buccal Fat Removal
1 month post-op
Dr. Gupta, Alison, and the entire staff at Verve were amazing. I had neck liposuction and buccal fat removal done there in the clinic and was so nervous beforehand. They made me feel super comfortable, explained everything that was happening, made me laugh, and made my time a lot easier. I am still not totally done healing but I'm already seeing great results and I'm so excited to see what it looks like in the end. My consults never felt rushed and I didn't feel like I was pressured into anything more than what I wanted to do. I would definitely go back or refer any friends!
Best Med Spa in All of SD Alison at Verve was very professional from start to finish. Their service is great and make you feel right at home when you come in. The people at Verve make it so easy to make appointments too. I would definitely recommend them.

The staff at Verve is very friendly and professional I have received Botox a handful of times at Verve and am always completely happy with the results. The staff is very conservative with their treatments and always errs on the natural side. They are very friendly and make my treatments easy and comfortable. Would definitely recommend!
The whole staff is so warm and friendly Liposuction
28 days post-op
I had a great experience with Dr. Gupta at Verve. He took his time with the consultation, day-of consult, and follow-ups and I didn’t feel rushed or pushed into anything. The whole staff is so warm and friendly and helped me with my nerves the day of the procedure. I’m still in the healing process but already I’m seeing a difference and can’t wait to see the final results!
From Doctors Office to Family Breast Reconstruction
7 months post-op
I am so thrilled with my experience and results from
Dr. Gupta and his staff. I received my BRCA results a few years ago and grappled with the possibility of having a prophylactic mastectomy with reconstruction. After a year of contemplation, I decided to move forward. Right off the bat, the whole office helped me feel comfortable with my decision and held my hand through the surgeries to come. I hit a few hiccups along the way, but I knew I was in good hands. Not only do I love my results, but I feel like by the end of it all, I was so close to all of those who I worked with along the way.
Such a Great Team! They have literally crafted a new body for me. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Gupta and his team. As a healthcare worker, I strongly feel that, when looking for a good surgeon, you should always ask the surgical nurses who to go to. The nurses I work with all said that Dr. Gupta would be their first choice for a Plastic Surgeon. My referral to Verve came following a breast cancer diagnosis. Needless to say, I was anxious when I walked in. But Dr. Gupta, with his gentle demeanor, put me at ease immediately. He took time and explained things thoroughly. But the saying goes that a doctor is only as good as the people around him and I think he has chosen his team very well. EVERYONE in the office has been helpful and attentive, from the front desk and scheduling to nursing and post-op care with the PA, they are wonderful. They communicate well and always respond to calls and texts in a timely manner and are so friendly! And, saving the best for last...I have been so very pleased with the surgical reconstruction skills. They have literally crafted a new body for me that's even better than I had in my teens and twenties! I've had post-mastectomy breast reconstruction and a tummy tuck with diastasis recti repair and liposuction. If you are looking for a team you can trust will make you look and feel beautiful, these are, hands down, the best people for the job.
Highly Recommend Dr. Gupta! Breast Augmentation
22 days post-op
Highly recommend Dr. Gupta! He and his staff made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process- from initial consultation to post-op appointments. During my consultation, Dr. Gupta provided his professional opinion about my cosmetic surgery and I felt confident he could deliver the results I wanted. Almost a month after surgery and I'm very happy with the results!
The staff at Verve was so helpful throughout the process. I had to reschedule my procedure due to COVID-19 and they were very accommodating with my schedule. They were always available to answer any questions I had. I never felt pressured to make a decision, which was extremely important to me. I visited other offices that tried to get me to commit by offering a discount, which didn't feel right to me. The staff at Verve never made me feel pressured or uncomfortable.
I'm very happy I chose Verve Plastic Surgery.
