Since opening my practice in Las Vegas, I have striven to deliver the best the power of plastic surgery can offer. Furthermore, my staff is dedicated to doing the same. I realize that aesthetic surgery is a tool by which people seek to customize their appearance in accordance with their subjective sense of self. It is my duty to you, as your plastic surgeon, to guide you in using that tool as reliably, safely, and individualized as possible.

I recently had my breast implant removal procedure done by Dr. Charleston Chua, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience! After having implants for 15 years, I had been considering removal for some time but wanted to avoid general anesthesia. Dr. Chua assured me that I would be a good candidate for local anesthesia, and I’m so grateful he accommodated my request. During the procedure, I was numbed with Lidocaine for pain management and took a Valium for comfort. I didn’t feel any pain at all, and the entire process was quick, smooth, and stress-free. My recovery was practically painless, and now, three months later, I’m fully healed with no issues. This experience has truly changed my life for the better! If you’re considering breast implant removal, I highly recommend Dr. Chua—his expertise, care, and willingness to tailor the procedure to my needs made all the difference.

I have nothing but great things to say about Dr.Chua and his staff. He takes his time to explain everything and answer questions, he makes you feel 100% comfortable and confident. Im thankful to have had Dr.Chua do 2 of my surgeries (BBL & breast augmentation with lipo) every time has been a wonderful experience. You can tell he is passionate and enjoys what he does. It’s also good to know if you need him or have questions he and/or his staff are only a text or phone call away. I recommend Dr.Chua to anyone looking for an amazing doctor who you can trust.
Dr. Chua ajdnhis staff were professional, knowledgeable, and attentive. I never felt rushed or pressured in any way and he really listened to my concerns and helped me get exactly what I wanted. Daisy was so sweet and supportive through the entire process too-- she called to check in days before the procedure and in the days after too. So happy I went to him, and 100% recommend to anyone looking to look and feel their best!

I had a tummy tuck a little over a year ago and the doctor, who won't be named, did a terrible job. I ended up with a larger waist at 30 inches, a lumpy protruding stomach and my belly button looked weird, like if was sewn shut. I saw Dr Chua about a revision because the other doctor kept telling me that there was underlying fat under my stomach and it "was normal". It was clear he didn't want to do anything to fix it and by that time, I didn't want him to do anything else for me. I met with Dr Chua and after a long, extremely informative consultation we decided to do a tummy tuck revision, lipo 360 to address the lumpiness and unevenness and since we were taking out fat, added a bbl to put that fat in a better place. He was very thorough with the pre-op instructions and very clear that the surgery was his job but the recovery part was on me. Before surgery I jokingly told him that I would like to see my old 25 inch waist again. I have to admit that the first 2-3 weeks were tough. But a few days past 4 weeks, my waist was already at 26 1/2 inches!! So far, I am almost at 6 weeks and the results are amazing!! My tummy is flat, my waist is getting smaller, the lumpiness and unevenness is smoothed out and my belly button looks normal again. He is extremely professional, kind, caring, patient, answers any and all questions, and I Gould see that he really likes what he does. His staff is great but Daisy is wonderful. She constantly texted me and made sure I was comfortable with every step of the process, pre-op and post-op. I love my results now, and they are going to get better. THANK YOU DR. CHUA!!!!!
As someone who has always been very active and in shape, Gynecomastia was one aspect of my body that I could not improve and it became really bothersome both mentally and physically. Dr. Chua was able to remove and correct the problematic areas and has dramatically helped improve my wellbeing! Highly recommend!
Dr. Chua is a young energetic plastic surgeon. He is in the right field. I had my tummy tuck and liposuction done by him and very happy with the results. You can trust him. You will be in a good hand. His amazing staff is a plus! Thank you all for your detailed care and attention.
My mommy makeover results are even better than I anticipated. I'm 4 months out and still have a bit of swelling at the lowest portion of my groin, but I am so very pleased with how my body was transformed. I appreciate how precise Dr Chua was on measuring and ensuring natural placement of things. He used my own body fat to enhance my breasts and (without my asking) added a small amount to my butt to give it a natural lift. I'm 60 and have never felt so confident in my skin. My only 'compliant' is that I was often told Dr Chua wasn't available for my post-op appointments and the nurse in my care didn't always have /get back to me quickly with the answers to the questions I had.
Dr.Chua is good. I love my results, in my eyes it is perfect. I recommend coming to Dr.Chua, I will be coming back for more procedures. With the detailed measurements that Dr.Chua did during my consultation we agreed on SRX 445 as my implant size.
I use tummy tuck as a tool to improve two factors: the separation of your core muscles due to weight gain, pregnancy, or otherwise unexplained separation (rectus diastasis) and to remove excess skin. An examination by a surgeon will be able to determine if you have a rectus diastasis. We are now learning about the benefits of repairing rectus diastasis such as improved core muscle function, improved posture, less back pain, etc. If you do not have a rectus diastasis, then liposuction plus a skin tightening modality your surgeon is comfortable with will be sufficient. Finally, if you proceed with a tummy tuck then the surgeon can opt to perform a 'modern abdominoplasty' which keeps your belly button attached to your skin rather than your abdominal wall while pulling down on the skin in order to avoid making the incision around the belly button. This does force the belly button to sit lower than you're used to but an experienced surgeon will find a good balance between skin tightening and aesthetic belly button placement. New techniques with fat grafting into muscle under ultrasound guidance is emerging as a method in which to bulk up muscle, and in terms of your question, the six pack.
I advise a minimum of 6 weeks, 3 months for most patients, but up to a year for maximum benefit. In my patients, the chance of retaining fluid, developing fibrosis/cording, and being uncomfortable is decreased the longer you wear the garment.
I use the 3 finger rule to find out if a garment is too tight or too loose. Take your index, middle, and ring fingers side by side and stand them up perpendicular to your skin at the area in question. If you cant fit all three fingers in this way then it is too tight. If you can easily put 4 or more fingers in the space this way then it's too loose. Hope this helps!
I recommend complete pressure offloading on the butt and hips for 3 weeks after a BBL. Although many patients have tried to find ways around not sitting directly on the butt, the problem is that these device put pressure on the lower back and upper thighs. When you put pressure on these areas, the skin in between them tighten like two people pulling a sheet in opposite directions. The taut skin causes pressure on the buttocks and causes a flatter appearance.
The shrinkage you're experiencing in the first 3 weeks is due to resolving edema (swelling) after any surgery, including BBLs! The next few months will have additional "shrinkage" due to an expected reabsorption of approximately 30% of the fat that was transferred. There is no way to affect these two parts of the healing process even if you follow your surgeon's directions perfectly.
