Age 57 Lower Facelift with the Amazing Dr Smoot
I am first of all sharing this story in gratitude for the women before me who were not afraid of showing the good, the bad and everything in between. So many people I know are afraid to talk about the "work" they have had done. I did my research and chose Dr Smoot from the La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre. I am less than 3 weeks out and already seeing the healing process begin to show the results, although I know it will be months to a year before the final effect comes through.
Happy with my Results!
I chose Dr. Smoot because of the results from previous patients. They were very natural, and exactly the look I was going for. After talking with him I was comfortable with my decision to move forward, and didn't feel the need to consult with other surgeons. The entire process at LJCSC was organized and explained well. I definitely recommend Dr. Smoot and LJSCS.
Amazing, caring and knowledgable staff that made all of the difference
I had such a great experience working with Dr. Smoot. He's very easy to talk to and answered all of my questions. He does tend to go a little conservative but he listens to what you truly wants while taking into consideration your body & what will look best. His nurse Carmen is amazing. She is so friendly and caring. All of the staff at La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre have been great to work with. Karla was my patient care coordinator and even checked in on me after my surgery.

Upper and Lower Eyelid Surgery Under General Anesthetic - La Jolla, CA
I had my surgery done on the 21st. I was bandaged going home but I after 7 hours I panicked and I had to remove the bandage. Could not stand it anymore, I am a little claustrophobic. I was already bruised which surprised me. So i started with ice compresses right away, went to sleen sitting on my sofa around midnight but did not get good sleep. Second day was worse as far as the swelling and bruising. I went for a check up, doctor said everyrhing looks good, so back home to

64 Yrs Old with Breast Lift Implants and Tissue Graft - La Jolla, CA
Breast surgery journey I'm 64 yrs old I've had four children and this is not my first Breast implant surgery. Now Bear with me this is long but will be very helpful for those whom are considering breast implants. If you are willing to maintain your breasts and realize it's a life long process then continued to read on..One thing to understand if you decide to get implants it's not a one time and be done surgery . Almost every 10-15 years they will probably need replacing

I am so excited for my BA! Something I've been talking about doing since I realized I wasn't as blessed as all of the other girls. I never thought I'd actually do it until now. I scheduled my surgery for September 9 after doing extensive research for weeks. I had a ton of consultations and met with lots of doctors (always a good idea to shop around!) I finally settled on one and I'm so excited. He had phenomenal reviews online and then when I met him I just knew I wanted him to

Breast Reduction F to D. La Jolla, CA
Dr Smoot was excellent! He was kind and very professional, he took time to answer all my questions and I felt very safe with him, nurse and staff were also kind, I love my new little boobies! I was amazed how fast my body healed and within a month I was hiking up Cowl's mountain again. Best decision! I went from a size F to a size D.

Breast Augmentation Revision with Lift. La Jolla, CA
I had previous breast augmentation back in 2003 with a different plastic surgeon, wanting a medium C cup, but ending up with a DD size; the surgeon did a beautiful job, but took liberties by sizing me up much more than I had wanted. I was greatly disappointed, but at that younger age, I got used to the larger size and lived with it. As the years went by however, an inclination to reduce the size of my implants became increasingly desirable, thus began my search for the right
