For the Best Version of You - See Dr. Kang!

I recently underwent eyelid surgery—Asian upper and lower bleph with Dr. Kang, and my only wish, is that I had done it sooner. I’ve wanted to correct my eye asymmetry for over a decade. It was becoming bothersome to take photos, and I was straining my one eyebrow up to raise my eyelid open. After my surgery with Dr. Kang, I can honestly say—he and his team of lovely nurses (Nina and Kelly) are highly skilled professionals, and I would recommend them to anyone thinking of doing this procedure. Previously, I had also attended consultations with other 2x surgeons within the New York area, but after meeting with Dr. Kang, it was evident he was confident to perform the surgery with the highest attention to detail, something I valued, as I had been timid to do the procedure for fear of poor results. He was most concerned with preserving my natural features, accentuating my own individual eye shape, and looking at my overall facial balance during the consultation, versus a copy and paste procedure. To correct my eye asymmetry, he advised he would need to create a crease fold to hide the scarring where excess skin would be removed. As long as I left his office, still looking like me, I was at ease. The day of my surgery, Dr. Kang and his nurses (Nina and Kelly) went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. Even the surgery itself was pleasant—as I was under local anesthesia. Dr. Kang took his time the entire surgery to correct my asymmetry, and removing my under eye bags. Even the same day, night of, I could tell—he had nailed it. The next morning, my eyes were swollen, but I knew he had done a phenomenal job. The after care and follow up appointments have been wonderful. The biggest testament is that every morning, I wake up happy, and so pleased with the outcome in the mirror. My mother even admitted, the results are flawless. Dr. Kang’s results and craftsmanship speak for themselves. BIGGEST thank you to Dr. Kang, I feel like the very best version of myself!

Love my Eyelid Fold

I’ve gotten my first eyelid surgery back in China many years ago, but I was very unhappy with the results. When I came to see Dr Kang in NYC, he gave me a complete consultation and provided phenomenal care for my second revision eyelid surgery. I was so happy with the results, now I come for lasers and aesthetic treatment from his medi-spa! I love his staff and the professionalism they provide. Highly recommend seeing him for a consult for a potential revision especially if you are unhappy with your results from other doctors.

Mid-face Lift and Fat Transfer

I’m currently 51 years old and I’ve been with Dr Kang for almost 5 years now initially for the lower blepharoplasty. I loved the results so much that I came back for the mid face lift due to natural sagging of my face. I was so happy with my results due to Dr Kang and the team’s professional post operative care. We have treated some loss of volume by facial fat grafting and now 4 months later, I am doing great! I look very natural almost how I looked 5-7 years ago. Thank you Dr Kang. I highly recommend seeing him!

He’s the One!!

Love coming to see Dr Kang for all my facial needs, from the office location, easy to find and they have private parking, to the ladies who work with him and make the waiting room a joy to wait. I truly appreciate Dr Kang’s honesty and expertise. I was highly recommended to him by another doctor, as I asked her, why does she look so refreshed! Nowadays it’s a gamble to go somewhere and receive not just good attention but amazing, natural results and one thing I can assure everyone who I recommend, go on with confidence you are in the best hands in NYC!! As a woman in my 40’s I know I’ll be aging super gracefully with Dr Kang in my life!

Dr Kang is an Amazing Doctor! 10/10

Dr. Kang is such an excellent doctor! I would recommend him 10 out of 10 to anyone. He is very cognizant of keeping one’s natural look and never doing more than is needed. He is extremely thorough, answers all questions, and explains procedures fully. He goes above and beyond and is a true specialist at his craft. His staff is also extremely helpful and kind.

Threadlift and Under Eye Bag

From the moment I went to Dr Kang’s office the staff made me feel comfortable and welcoming. The procedure itself was smooth and painless. After the procedure the team checked up on very frequently making sure I was recovering properly. The post op days were very smooth die to clear instructions. He made me look very natural despite my age of 74!! Ive never had anything done before, but he did thread/facelift hybrid technique with little downtime and no visible scar!! I was so happy and received so many compliments from friends and family! I love the natural look making me feel more confident despite my age. I highly recommend seeing him even for a consultation and to have faith in his artistic design.

Skilled, Compassionate and an Perfectionist, the Best Doctor in Town

Dr. Kang is absolutely the best plastic surgeon in the NY area. He is highly skilled, extremely patient, and super passionate about what he does. To me, 2 things separate him from the other doctors: 1. His approach to natural looks and 2. He is empathetic and cares about his patients. He is able to do fat transfer under local anesthesia and that’s not easy. Dr. Kang always delivers and he is very reasonable pricing wise! I have seen him for a couple of years and he never disappoints. Thank you, Dr. Kang!

Phenomenal Skills!

I’ve been a patient of Dr. John Kang for over three years, and he continues to amaze me. His artistry and precision are extraordinary—he can fix any injector mishap and create facial symmetry that looks effortlessly natural. But what truly makes him exceptional is his heart. He genuinely cares about his patients, listens with compassion, and goes above and beyond at every step. Being in his care feels safe, thoughtful, and personal, and the results are always beautiful. I feel incredibly grateful to have found a doctor with such skill, integrity, and heart.

Under Eyes

I've had lower eye bags ever since I was 19 years old. When I found Dr Kang through Mr google I saw him for a consultation and underwent the lower blepharoplasty ! Dr Kang and his magical hands were able to remove my suitcases (my facial under eye bags) and his professionalism has made the healing process smooth. Hope everyone gets to see him and highly recommend while he's still around! Also~ the staff is amazing and very nice to all patients! Thank you Doc!

Thread Lift and Face Lift Hybrid Technique

Ive been seeing Dr Kang for more than 20 years and he has been able to outperform himself once more! I recently underwent a threadlift (every year) once more, but he used a hybrid technique to maximally lift my sagging face and remove some excess skin to reduce bunching by the periauricular area and I absolutely love the results! There is no downtime compared to a face lift and he has been able to maintain my youthful look! I fly in from North Caroline to NY just to see him every year and he has been the best plastic surgeon that meets every single one of my needs. Highly recommend seeing him— even for a consultation.. he may change your life!
