He was amazing for implant removal and breast lift. He let me know ahead of time that removal of implants can have an initial negative self image purely due to the difference of size. He mentioned I could also downsize to smaller implants to maintain upper pole fullness, but I just want more of a natural feel and not have any foreign objects in my body. Dr. Pertsch complete understood and did not push new implants on me. He was truly kind and amazing with what he was able to do.
Dr. Pertsch is so talented and really took his time to hear me out and discuss options. He is the sweetest man and really cares about his patients. He takes his time during surgery to really get perfect results. It's been amazing working with Dr Pertsch and his staff. Alley is so nice and helps throughout the entire process.
I cannot thank Dr. Pertsch and his staff enough
The best of the best!!! I can NOT thank Dr. Pertsch and his staff enough for what they did for me. From Ally meeting with me first to walking out with amazing results. I was the most hesitant, scared patient anyone could have. Dr. Pertsch and his amazing team made the whole plastic surgery experience a fantastic one. I would recommend him to anyone that asks me.

49 Years Old, Wanted to Do This Forever. SO Glad I Did! - San Mateo, CA
Motivation was to not look tired all the time. I live a pretty healthy lifestyle, but to me, I always look tired with the hooded eyelids. The surgery was a breeze. Never had any pain at all. Like whatsoever. And I didn’t take the pain medication. Dr. Pertsch is great! He really takes his time with you in the office and in surgery. Mine took 2 hours.
Outstanding Results
I was referred to Dr. James Pertsch by my PCP; we had discussed gynecomastia surgery multiple times. I had been postponing the surgery for years due to various fears and dread of operation. After speaking with Alley from Dr. Pertsch's office, I was inclined to move forward with the surgery. She did an amazing job quelling my worries and suppressing my concerns regarding the operation. To be frank, had I not spoken with someone as professional and caring as Alley, I would have
Excellent Care, Great Results
Making the decision to have plastic surgery is not to be undertaken lightly, but I felt entirely comfortable about putting myself in Dr. Pertsch's capable hands. At the age of nearly 70, I felt that my neck didn't really match the rest of my face, and my eyelids were droopy, making me look tired. Dr. Pertsch listened attentively to my concerns and, as another patient has mentioned, didn't try to sell me on surgery. He carefully discussed the risks and the results I might expect,

Dr. Pertsch Provides the Very Best Care - San Mateo, CA
Dr. Pertsch is a remarkable, highly-skilled, well-trained surgeon with a very warm, compassionate demeanor. Over two decades I’ve had three surgeries with Dr. Pertsch; he’s an expert in his field who provides the very best care for his patients. My first surgery, a breast augmentation (with saline implants) and liposuction, occurred in 1997 and was so successful that I returned in 2000 for a second all-over liposuction treatment. I’ve been extremely satisfied with and grateful
I'm 37 years old, mother of 3 children ages 19, 13, and 7. 5'0" at 110lb. I had my original implants done in 2000, after having my first child. They have held up really well - very mobile, soft, no activity restrictions, and with great sensation; but after the 2 subsequent pregnancies, I experienced some involution. Also because my skin is very thin, the rippling in the implants is evident to the touch when I lean all the way forward. The implants I currently have are old
