Gabriel Chui is not only an amazing surgeon, but also an amazing person. He takes his time during your consultation to answer any questions you might have. He ensures that whatever surgery you are having he will 100% make you look your absolute best NATURALLY.
Just over a year ago, I had traveled to California to Dr.Chiu. I was looking at having a liposuction done while also trying to do a fat transfer to my breast after going in for my initial consultation. I decided that he was a great fit for what I wanted to do with it being just over a year now since my procedure I am very happy with the results as initially he had taken out quite a bit of pure fat and was able to get my breast to be a full cup bigger. I am very impressed with his work and very happy that I made the decision to use him for my procedure. I recommend him to anyone looking as me being my first time ever having something like this done. I was very nervous and he was very understanding and very helpful along the way. Thank you Dr.Chiu Sa B
I had a fat transfer to breast 9 weeks ago. I have low body fat (BMI of 18) but Dr. Chiu was able to get 260 CCs for each breast, which was impressive. I did liposuction of my abs, flanks, lower back, and upper inner thighs. While the recovery from liposuction was definitely hard, I am feeling great now and happy with my results. I had a small, somewhat "deflated" breasts to begin with. Dr. Chiu was able to give me more overall volume, as well as a fuller "upper pole". My breasts look like they did when I was in my early twenties. I can wear sports bras and unpadded bikini tops now without my chest basically disappearing. I think this is an excellent procedure for people who are only looking for a modest increase in size/fullness and aren't sure about implants. I have been very diligent about following post-operative instructions and think I have retained about half of my transferred fat. Unlike a couple of other doctors I met with, Dr. Chiu really took the time to understand my goals and did not pressure me to go bigger or go with a traditional breast augmentation using implants. He is very friendly and the appointments never felt rushed. He was also super clear with me about what I could expect in terms of results. I had realistic expectations going into the procedure and am very glad I did it.
I’ve been treated by Dr Chiu for the last 13 years. I will never go to any other Dr. I believe in him, trust him and he’s the best! Top of the line. He and his staff are always so friendly and professional. Thank always BHPS
Dr Gabriel and his nurses were so friendly and made me feel so safe! They definitely made me feel comfortable for my BA and answered all my questions (I had many) and still followed up with me even when I was overseas. I felt comfortable addressing all my concerns pre and post op with them
They say there are those times that you come across a professional that truly loves his work and Dr. Chiu is one of those. He is not only an outstanding plastic surgeon; he is a doctor that sincerely cares and shows a loving concern toward his patients. His gentle demeanor and patience along with his knowledge and experience gave me sound reassurance. He goes to great efforts to meet and explain every care and concern that you might have. He also surrounds himself with an outstanding staff that is also attentive and responsive to any need or concern that may arise. Last year Dr. Chiu removed my 22 year old silicone implants, a surgery from another plastic surgeon. He removed and replaced the old silicone implants. It was a long and difficult surgery because he was careful not to damage the nerves and he successfully did that and I have full sensation. I am so grateful to Dr. Chiu because you can’t see the scar and my 34D breasts look so natural! I had a smooth and successful recovery without complications. I am extremely happy with my new breasts. In June of this year (2024), I had a revision of my tummy tuck incision line, a surgery performed by another plastic surgeon 22 years ago after having 4 C-Sections. Additionally, I had a tummy tuck, liposuction on my abdomen, hips, flanks, and waist, fat transfers into various places on my face, including my nasolabial folds, liposuction on my chin and jawline, and Renuvion treatment over my stomach, jawline and chin. I also had a upper lift lip, all of this was performed by Dr. Chiu in one surgery. I am so elated with the results. My face looks younger and my lips are perfect, they don’t look like the dreaded “DUCK LIPS!” I can wear bikinis again and my abs look like I spent hours in the gym and you can’t see my C-Section scar. I lost all the fat on my stomach, waist and hips. I’ve gone down two sizes! The Renuvion treatment tightened and reduced my excess skin. My surgery was about 10 hours, but the recovery was also smooth without complications and each day I could see my body transforming! I can’t tell you how happy I am with the results and the way I look its UNBELIEVABLE! It’s been 12 weeks post surgery and I feel 20 years younger and I love what he did to my face, stomach, waist, jawline, chin, lips and revision of my C-section incision line. I should also mention that I had Morpheus treatment on my knees to smooth out the lines above my knees. I regularly see Dr. Chiu for SylfirmX and Exosomes to treat my acne scars, pores, pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, my uneven skin texture and tone and the treatment stimulates collagen growth and elastin formation. The results are amazing! My face looks younger, healthy and youthful. Dr. Chiu is an incredible plastic surgeon, he went above and beyond my expectations. Everything from my first consultation and surgery to my follow up appointments could not have gone better. His nurse and staff are professional, always friendly and eager to help. I am amazingly shocked at how great my results are. I highly recommend Dr.Chiu at Beverly Hills Plastic Surgery. Thank you Dr. Chiu from the bottom of my heart!
Dr Chiu is really patient and professional, he explains everything and addresses my concerns patiently. Also the nurses are very nice and helpful. I have a great experience here at bhps, highly recommended.
After such an excellent experience with Dr. Chiu at BHPS for breast augmentation, I went back for Botox and filler and could not have been more pleased with the results! I have struggled with TMJ problems for years, so having an injector knowledgeable in how to obtain the results I was looking for while also providing information on secondary benefits was incredible! Thanks guys, I’ll be back! (:
I've been going to Dr. Chiu for over 15 years, and he is the best surgeon in town. Dr. Chiu knows what he is doing and made me comfortable before my surgery. Dr. Chiu and the staff are helpful, knowledgable and professional.
I’ve been seeing Dr. Chiu for a couple years now (flying in from out of state) and have always been extremely happy with my results!!! His level of professionalism and perfectionism is exceptional!!! He is truly one of the very best!
Thank you for your question. While it is recommended to remove and replace your saline implants every 10-15 years, there is no medical reason to do it urgently if you have no issues with your breasts. The risks of leakage and deflation do increase significantly after ten years. It will be very obvious if this happens and you should have them replaced as soon as possible to avoid the need for more surgery, since the implant pocket will shrink and can scar closed without the implant keeping it open. I hope this helps you decide when is the best time for you to consider a replacement!
Under the right conditions, there are doctors that will go ahead and perform silicone implants on patients as young as 18. While It is recommended for patients to consider silicone implants at the age of 22 or older, there are individual cases where a younger patient would benefit from having silicone implants. Of course it depends on the particular case. Smooth shell saline definitely has a higher chances of rippling with skinnier patients. Consult with an experienced board certified plastic surgeon who can best address your concerns. Good luck.
Thank you for your question and photos. And congratulations on the weight loss!You should really consider having a breast lift along with your breast augmentation to achieve the upper pole fullness and symmetry that you desire. While breast implants will increase your size, you won't achieve the rest of your breast goals without the breast lift. As for your worries about scarring, work with your plastic surgeon to properly take care of the incisions for the best results. Embrace scar therapy dressings may work very well for you.
Thank you for your question and photos. While it is common to have residual swelling at 5 weeks post-op, it does look like you are developing some contour irregularities. It's not too late to consider some deep tissue massages to help smooth out irregularities caused by scar tissue and edema. Some before photos would have helped to determine if skin laxity or excess fat pockets may be the source of your irregularities. If there is accumulated blood or fluid (hematoma or seroma), your surgeon could try to aspirate it. I would ask your surgeon for a follow up at 6-8 weeks post-op to monitor your progress and not wait 6 more weeks for a 10 week follow up. Definitely continue to wear your compression garments.
Thank you for the question. This is unlikely a result of the surgery since it started 3 months after your breast augmentation. I would recommend that you get input from a gynocologist or dermatologist to rule out a skin condition or infection. It's likely that an external factor might be causing this and I would think about any activity or behavior that could've caused this. Best of luck in your healing journey.
