Dr Nguyen was incredibly kind, gentle, and respectful when I was very timid after many years of abuse from my (now ex) husband. He put me at ease, answered all my questions, and overall made me feel excited for the procedure. His bedside manner is impeccable and the results are *chef's kiss* better than expected even after just a sneak peek when I could shower after 48 hours. A week later, I'm so happy with what I see so far, and I'm excited to see more swelling go down over the next month to see the final results. Highly recommend AirSculpt and Dr Nguyen!

I would recommend this procedure and do it again if needed! All of the staff was friendly. The nurse helped ease my nerves. I had never done anything like this so when I got here I was overthinking it. Once Dr. Nguyen got started he was very gentle and I didn’t feel a thing. Literally painless and easy.

One of my Greatest Regrets. Please Read Before Booking! I had back, waist, and flank lipo done by Dr. Anson Nguyen in March 2022, and it was one of the worst decisions I've made. While he was nice (saying this as it’s the only redeeming thing about the situation), the lipo he performed left me with loose skin around my back and waist, in addition to lumps on my upper back. It took me several months to get over the shame I felt from getting this surgery and not blame myself for what happened. This is a long story, and I hope that after reading this (and you should, especially for a life-changing procedure like lipo), you’ll never have to experience what I did. I had my consult in February 2022 and felt fine. Dr. Nguyen explained the procedure and the results I should expect. I asked if I qualified for lipo, and he told me yes and that I had “fantastic skin.” I put down my $12,000 about two weeks after, and was looking forward to having the surgery. Fast forward to surgery day in March. The procedure goes on without a hitch, but around the two-month mark, I noticed I have back flaps from the loose skin on my back, and the skin around my waist had folded. I brought this up during my three-month check-in with Dr. Nguyen in June, who told me that he “guessed I have loose skin after all” and recommended that I get the excess skin cut (!!!) or do Bodytite. When I brought up his “fantastic skin” comment, he just said, “Oh some people just have loose skin after the procedure.” I was so upset, I sat in my car and cried for so long that my battery died. How did I go from having great skin to it being loose? I asked a friend of a friend who’s a plastic surgery fellow for another take, and sent him a video of my before (I took one the day of surgery) and after. They confirmed that what Dr. Nguyen said was suspicious because no one goes from having great skin to loose skin. Skin laxity is apparent pre-op, so if I had loose skin the PS must let me know before any procedure. Nonetheless, my friend told me to continue wearing my garment and that my skin may likely retract. It barely did. My six-month check-in was in September, and in addition to the back and waist flaps, the left and right sides of my waist became very uneven (and I’m not talking about normal asymmetry here). When I brought all of this up, all Dr. Nguyen had to say was that my skin is naturally “thick and heavy and loose," I had no more fat to be sucked out, and there was nothing he could do to fix it. He spoke to the practice manager — and when she called me, she was rude, condescending, and a bit dismissive, stating that I had a “lot of fat” taken out (for context, I had about a liter taken out from my whole back and waist) and that Dr. Nguyen has great “cultural experience.” I could care less about Dr. Nguyen’s cultural background—competency matters a lot more, which he lacked here. The practice manager referred me to a meeting with Dr. Pisarki (the medical director) for a second opinion but I never went back. I had a feeling that if Dr. Nguyen wouldn’t admit his mistakes, what interest would Dr. Pisarki have in telling me the truth? They’re looking out for their interests (and of EBS) before the patient. Intuitively, I knew my procedure went wrong and I still wanted a second opinion. In mid-October, I went to a renowned, well-respected, and board-certified PS for a second opinion, and wow—the difference in their demeanor and professionalism was night and day! We sat there for an hour and they listened to my story and provided some surgical and non-surgical options for my revision. They reviewed Dr. Nguyen’s mistakes and assured me that a liter of fat isn’t a lot, especially for the areas I liposuctioned (they explained after the blood and liquids are removed, the fat is only enough to fill a standard disposable water bottle). Also, Dr. Nguyen told me during my consultation that I was qualified to have the surgery, but the new PS said that the kind of lipo that's used for AirSculpt wasn’t for my skin type — hence the loose skin and lumps on my back. They were very honest about the risks and benefits of having a second surgery, especially after what Dr. Nguyen had done — and what they’ll need to do to fix his mistakes. I should also note here that this PS kept reiterating that having a second surgery was entirely optional, and I never felt pressured or coerced into signing up for another surgery. I was shocked — and felt a weird wave of relief knowing that I was not making things up in my head and that Dr. Nguyen wasn't being truthful with me. I'm being careful not to give any identifying information about the PS I went to, but they were extremely helpful. There's a few things to note here before you decide to get your surgery done at EBS: in Texas, almost any physician can call themselves a plastic surgeon, with or without surgical training or board certification. Also, whether or not the EBS doctors are board certified is a crapshoot (Dr. Nguyen isn't) — which means you're taking an even bigger risk getting your surgery done here. You're better off going to an independent practice with someone who is board certified and has extensive experience; EBS is like the Walmart of lipo (without the cheap prices). Before you book your surgery, ask yourself “Do I want my body used as someone’s practice round?” Hopefully, the answer is no, and you’ll seek this life-changing procedure elsewhere. I’m still deciding whether I want to go in for a revision later next year — I have lumps and indentations on both sides of my body and on my back. I wear shapewear constantly so my loose skin isn’t visible under clothing, and my self-confidence has taken a major hit (which defeats the whole purpose of PS). I have a feeling that there are many more negative reviews that can be written about AirSculpt and EBS, but there's an element of victim-blaming in saying that your procedure was botched or wasn't done well. There's a lot of shame in coming forward (which is very understandable), and I hope that this review helps you make a more informed decision. I wouldn't dismiss any of the negative reviews here, either. For every person that has the courage to share their story publicly, there are many more who are too ashamed to do so.
