Carlos Mata, MD, MBA, FACS

I have seen and been treated by a few different plastic surgeons over the span of 2 decades. I am 40 now and this surgery has been a breeze compared to surgeries I’ve had even in my early 20s. All the surgeons in the past I went with were all generally good BUT their skills were not even in the same league as Dr. Mata! Even his staff, you can tell he has lovingly and carefully curated with great pride, because they are all graceful, smart, and kind. I felt so safe, appreciated, cared for, and listened to. I have quietly observed and experience first hand Dr. Mata’s high emotional intelligence. Not only is he eloquent with his bedside manner, but he is truly the best of the best artistically with his craft! I feel this with all my heart, as I have experience with 4 other surgeons before him from California to Utah. I’m only 4 weeks out from my tummy tuck revision and I already feel so beautiful and healthy! I have been chasing my pre-baby body for decades and he gave it back to me! ???? Another important thing to me is, I am mixed/ mestiza. To be exact, I am half Zuni Pueblo Native American and half Dutch. My body type favors my Native American side (for reference my natural body type is same type of the late Selena Quintinilla ) because of that I feel like other surgeons in my past just had a hard time understanding my body type. Dr. Mata understood my body type and spoke my natural curve’s language. However, I believe his talent and skill is great enough to understand any and all different body types… but for me it was the first time I ever encountered a Doctor that understood mine and I am beyond over the moon happy and excited!!! I feel like crying every day because I’m so happy! I’m so grateful for Dr. Mata’s expertise and his amazing team. Also, the anesthesiologist that was there for me on surgery day was also an angel from heaven I swear on my life she was! I plan on going to see Dr. Mata’s wife soon and having her do some little things for me too. I usually get little fillers and Botox in Tucson a few times a year, but I just want to be solely with Dr. Mata and his wife now when it comes to my body and face. Your body is your temple. It’s sacred. It is so scary to trust others with your life and your body. The vessel that carries you through this life, hugs your family, loves your children, and presents your light to the world. However, Dr. Mata genuinely has my trust with my temple and I’m so grateful I finally found a brilliant doctor that gave me what I dreamed of and knew before I ever gave birth. Bring on the string bikinis and skinny dipping this summer! . I will be updating this soon with pictures and keep updating it as I heal to show off my gorgeous results. Eeee! Updated on 6 Mar 2026: Okay, I finally have time to post some pictures. I will post a small timeline of photos from week one till now, at week 7. I use a red light therapy on my scar diligently, silicone scar cream daily, and I use the Ogee massage wand on my tummy daily; as well as I wear my fajas still every day and sleep in them. I really like the brand bonito but they don’t make them anymore, so I use my old one but also use forma Tu Cuerpo and the ogee faja. I also use the ogee fibroguard even though I don’t have liposuction on my abdomen just my flanks, I still use it to keep my skin soft and supple. I feel like this combo has really helped me and protects my investment. I do believe how you convalesce is extremely important for tip top surgery results.

It’s officially been one year since my revision liposuction, ab etching, and skin tightening on my stomach and flanks with Dr. Mata—and I couldn’t be more thrilled with my results! A few years ago, I had liposuction on my stomach with another surgeon. While there was improvement, I still had some areas that bothered me enough to seek a revision. I chose Dr. Mata based on his stellar reputation, impressive before-and-after photos, and outstanding reviews—and I’m so glad I did. From the moment you walk into his office, you’re greeted by friendly staff who make you feel right at home. His entire team is professional, attentive, and supportive throughout the whole process. Dr. Mata himself has excellent bedside manner—kind, honest, and incredibly skilled. He warned me that because I’d had prior lipo, my recovery would likely be more challenging. I didn’t believe him at first, but he was absolutely right! During my six-week post-op recovery, I wore double foam with my compression garment due to some fluid build-up. To support my healing, I followed all of his recovery recommendations, including weekly lymphatic drainage massages with Fatima, his in-office therapist—who was absolutely wonderful. I truly believe following his protocol made all the difference. At my one-year follow-up, Dr. Mata showed me my before photos, and I couldn’t believe the transformation. It was hard to believe that was even me! I finally have the toned, defined stomach and abs I’ve always worked so hard for—but could never achieve until now. Over the past year, I’ve received so many compliments and questions about what I’ve been doing. For the first time in my life, I feel completely confident showing my stomach—especially in a bikini! If you’re considering liposuction, skin tightening, or ab etching, look no further than Dr. Mata at Natural Results. His artistry, skill, and natural-looking outcomes speak for themselves. You won’t be disappointed—you’ll just wish you did it sooner!

Dr.Mata is such a professional doctor/surgeon. He is very knowledgeable and talented. He asked the right questions and is always available to answer any of my questions. My whole experience was comforting and smooth. Doctor along with everyone in the office were very helpful and supportive. I love my results and would so do it again.

My experience has been amazing and I am so happy with my results! I love going to Fatima for my lymphatic massage s because she is so knowledgeable! Jovi was my nurse and she was so sweet and wonderful to talk to!

My procedure was painless and I healed quickly. The doctors and staff were extremely professional. I would do it again without a doubt. Thank you for your amazing professionalism. After three years I look fantastic. Brenda S.

Dr. was incredibly helpful in helping me choose the best breast option for my breast aug, and he did amazing on my surgery. I really appreciate his work! I love my new boobs! Staff was friendly, informative and helped me through out the whole process. Only thing I would point put is that I was not provided my bag of items or antiseptic during pre op. They did provide the bag of items during post op.

I have not felt this confident with my body since before having kids, I could not be more pleased with my results. Dr. Mata has an amazing bedside manner as well, making sure I was comfortable throughout my appointments, before surgery and after. The entire staff is friendly and attentive.

I am one year post op from my breast augmentation, and I truly love my results. I can’t have my boobs out without at least one person asking who did them! This is not your average boob job! His office is where anatomy and art come together! Dr. Mata is consistently kind, knowledgeable, honest, realistic, and educational. If you’re looking for a surgeon who won’t steer you wrong, is always positive and supportive, plus amazing staff… Well, this is the one! I have never felt alone during my journey, and I know I can always count on my friends at Natural Results to listen and help me attain my goals. 100/10. Thank you Dr. Mata and the whole team at Natural Results! Easily the best decision I have made for my self confidence. My only regret is I wish I would have done it sooner! Be easy and stay blessed friends!!

Dr. Mata and his staff are such genuine and caring people! Dr. Mata himself did such an incredible jobs with booty augmentation! I didn’t want to over do it and not look natural, I just wanted to have more shape to my body and he definitely accomplished this for me. I use to work so hard on getting that perfect round bottom at the gym only to have it disappear immediately after an injury. I felt so defeated. The doctor gave me such a great gift of confidence with this procedure. Before seeing him and going through the surgery I believed I would always have that pancake bottom. Natural Results and Dr. Mata walked me through every step along the way and after the procedure they kept in constant contact with me, making me feel like part of their family! I had a few issues due to not following their instructions thoroughly, but durning this time they never made me feel bad about it, they just continued with their kindness and support. It’s been 6 months since my procedure and I am so thankful for Dr. Mata and his staff! Everything turned out great! I’ve had other procedures done throughout my life…I wish I would’ve known Dr. Mata during those times! Doing this review is my absolute pleasure! Dr. Mata and his staff really are the best out there! Anyone who chooses him for a cosmetic procedure will be 100% satisfied, I can promise you that!As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway.

Dr B did my breast augmentation a year ago and it’s been the most seamless experience! Not only do I love my results, I love how smooth the experience was. Anytime I had questions or concerns they were answered in no time. Even one year post op they got me in the next day for a concern that popped up. Couldn’t recommend Dr B and natural results enough, thank you staff and Dr B!
