I initially went for a chin lipo consultation and instead Dr. Smith tightened my mentalis muscle + did a fat graft to fix my ptosis and chin irregularity due to a previous chin implant removal. My chin irregularity was super specific/niche and Dr. Smith took the time to explain my options and preform a procedure that felt incredibly specialized for what I wanted. I felt heard and completely taken care of. I am 3 weeks post opp and am so happy with my results! The recovery was

Run, Don’t Walk!
A cursory TikTok search for breast reconstruction after significant weight loss brought me to Dr. Smith's page, where he discussed his experience with myriad procedures to help patients, many of them having lost significant weight like myself. I wanted a solution to my extreme sagging (which I know now was grade 4 ptosis) and loss of volume, and wanted a surgeon who was sensitive to my gym needs as a body builder. I didn't want to just go with the first person I found, so I spent
Dr. Smith and his staff were very welcoming and supportive. Dr. Smith listened to my desires carefully and answered all my questions in a well-rounded and thoughtful way. He provided his professional opinion but did not push me towards agreement. The nurse practitioner and other medical staff were also very responsive, answering my emails within moments and giving me phone calls off-hours when necessary. I felt very comfortable throughout the entire experience.

Exceptional Experience
I spent a great deal of time researching before choosing Dr. Darren Smith for my Flankplasty and Mini Thigh Lift (groin crease incision) and I could not be happier with my decision. From the beginning, Dr. Smith made me feel completely comfortable and confident. He really listened to what I wanted, explained everything thoroughly, and was incredibly attentive throughout my surgery and recovery. He truly went above and beyond, and I always felt that he genuinely cared about both

Thank You Dr. Smith!
I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Smith and his staff for my breast augmentation and chin liposuction surgeries. He was very attentive, listened to my concerns and answered all of my questions. Going into surgery, I felt confident and reassured knowing that he and I were on the same page about my goals/vision. I recommend Dr. Smith to anyone looking into these procedures!!

Dr. Smith is the Best!
Dr. Smith is the best! He did an exceptional job with my submental Vaser liposuction and FaceTite, which totally eliminated a lifelong insecurity about my side profile. He did such a great job that I returned for Aveli and BodyTite on the front of my thighs – the difference between the treated and untreated areas is night and day, and I can't wait to return for more. Dr. Smith is not just a great doctor, but a warm and lovely person. His office staff are uniformly kind and lovely

Amazing Experience with Dr. Smith
Dr. Smith was amazing. I chose him because of his impressive background and credentials. Knowing that he had an extensive background in both craniofacial surgery and aesthetics made me feel confident in his skill level. He performed a deep plane neck lift and I could not be happier with the results. The procedure took place in the operating room in his office which was meticulously clean and beautiful. Prior to the surgery Dr. Smith and his staff were patient and answered all

Incredible
I have been a patient of Dr. Smith for a few years. I have done noninvasive treatments as well as a facelift. There are no words to effectively convey how incredible Dr.Smith is. He is not only a highly skilled surgeon but an honest man with utmost integrity. I am beyond happy with my results. His work is natural, never looking “done”. The level of care and personal attention from Dr. Smith and his entire staff has always been stellar. I highly recommend Dr. Smith and his

Morpheus8 Gave Me My Confidence Back
Today marks exactly 8 weeks since completing my third Morpheus8 treatment, and the results are honestly mind-blowing. I’m 38 years old and hadn’t done anything to my face in the last four years. I had reached a point where I didn’t even enjoy looking at myself in the mirror anymore. I decided not to overthink it and scheduled an appointment with Dr. Smith’s office. I had three Morpheus8 sessions, and the improvement has exceeded all my expectations. I had actually been to this
This review is long overdue but I remember how much photos / reviews helped me so I wanted to leave my experience. I am healthy and active but could not get rid of the excess weight on my inner and outer thighs no matter how much I worked out. It was my biggest area of insecurity, so I decided to look for a doctor skilled in inner and outer thigh liposuction. I felt immediately at ease with Dr. Smith and his entire office staff. My goals were a natural looking result, to feel
