Kay Durairaj, MD

I wanted to give a HUGE thank you to Dr. Kay Durairaj and her sweet staff for making my experience so pleasant! I was treated for my TMJ migraine pain.

From the moment I called to book my appointment for TMJ Migraine relief, Anel was so professional and accommodating. She was an absolute sweetheart at checkout and helped me with all of my questions.

The nurses were all friendly and attentive.

Thank you Dr. Kay for helping me feel and look better! You are such an impressive, educated, and talented Doctor! Can't wait for my next visit (different treatment of course!)

I came in to get my lips done. I just want a little injection done nothing big. I've had my lips done once before and the nurse that did it took her time and all. I know she did her best but didn't ultimately didnt a good job. She just didn't have that eye. I went conservative asking just a little volume on my upper but she somehow made it uneven. Not a noticeable difference but if you look closely you could tell. For years I was stuck w it. That was the first and last. It's been 3 years and idk what happened but since then my lips haven't been quite the same and never allowed anyone to touch my lips scarred. So Someone referred me to Dr. Kay and I decided to book an appointment. Met her and did my consultation. I didn't say much but right away she knew what I was seeing and she pointed out a few other things casually in a non-offending way which I only knew was there but just kept to myself. I said if she could point this out then she defiantly has a keen eye. People not all MD's and nurses are the same. There's one that are naturally skillful and ones that just have the authority to poke and fill. I feel instantly comfortable and have complete faith in her work. She's a very talented Doctor.

I had sculptra starting 4 months ago. The difference in my naso labial folds is really noticable. I love the fact that it's gradual so no one sees a big difference right away. But after 4 months I love it. I've had people comment that I look less tired. My doctor is fantastic and I would recommend her to anyone.

I wanted cheekbones. I have a thin face and thin skin. I'm 47 and never had good bones really.

The Radiesse has given me the most natural cheek bones. It looks like I've had implants. It's lifted my whole face. I could not be more pleased. I tried Perlane before but the results were no-where as good as Radiesse.

I had some swelling which went overnight and minimal brusing and not a lump in sight. I am thrilled.

My biggest regret is being treated by Dr Kay. I went to her for a Sculptra treatment in my buttocks. And sadly, this treatment has left huge purple marks on my skin. It’s been 3 months since the treatment and the marks will not go away. I contacted the office and they sold me some brightening pads to use on the marks. These pads have made absolutely no difference. I am horrified that I paid this woman over $5000 to leave permanent dark marks on my body.
Avoid making my mistake and find a better doctor for this treatment.

I sadly have to agree with the negative reviews below. I had been following Dr. Kay for a couple of months, watching her IG lives and researching her work on her posts. I'm 39 years old and started to notice that my temples we're a little sunken in and my jowls needed a tiny lift. I signed up for her "specials" she promotes and purchased a package that was $3,250.00. When I arrived there was a bit of a wait, but I feel that's normal in this industry. There were people everywhere, they seemed stressed and patients that were waiting longer than me, were complaining and rescheduling their appointments.

As I waited in the room for Dr. Kay, Nurse Shima came in and I addressed my concerns to her. She then asked if she could start on my temples because Dr. Kay was running behind. The issue with this is, seeing Dr. Kay vs Nurse Shima they hold different pricing. Nothing against Dr. Shima's work but I paid to see Dr. Kay. ( For that I'm due a partial refund). Once Dr. Kay came in, I then addressed my concerns to her and why I was there. She mentioned that my jawline and cheeks were already defined and the filler was basically not needed. I asked what I could do to fix the issues that bothered me and she continued to put filler into my cheeks for a lift that was already there and along my jawline which was not needed.

When I asked what the purpose was of the filler she advised it would help my issues. My appointment was on 10/22/21 and as of today, 12/3/21, there is not one change in my appearance. I feel as if I paid for water in my face. For $3,250 I would hope to see some result as that is a lot of money to just go to waste. I'm extremely upset and disappointed. I reached out and asked for a refund, and they asked that I come back in to re-address my concerns and put more filler in my face which I dont want to just keep putting filler in my face.

At this point I just want a refund because I feel I got shammed and taken for 3 thousand dollars. I agree that her practice is catered towards influencers and or the people that allow her to video and take photos of. I started a dispute with my bank in hopes to receive my money back but it would be nice if they'd honor my refund because it's the right thing to do. My advice to all of you is to do your research and be careful before you spend a large amount of money.



Updated on 4 Feb 2022:
I wanted to share a follow up with all of you- After many weeks- Dr. Kay continues to refuse any type of refund but instead asks me back in for continued work on my face. Again, this is not about shoving more filler in my face, it's about the initial visit and not receiving the correct placement for what I purchased. In addition, I have a girlfriend who also went to Dr. Kay and I just found out that her experience was close to the same when she went in for under eye filler. She had no results and during her treatment, she was asked if it were ok that the ladies do a tiktok while treating her. She had 4 people in the room dancing while get treated. This place is money hungry and unsatisfactory. I will continue to deal with this with my bank.

I hope I can save people from getting their work done by Dr Kay. She seemed in a rush to get my procedure done. Upon healing, my face is now deformed. I have to go to another doctor to get the work fixed and it wasted my time and my money. I waited in a room for 3 hours to be seen. She didn’t seem to care what I wanted and did everything very quickly. I was in so much pain and bleeding. After she tried to tell me I needed a lot more work done and tried to upsell me her products. It all seems like a huge scam. She uses popular influencers to give her good advertisement but in actuality she shouldn’t even have her license to practice. I have filed a complaint to the medical board of california to get her investigated and after reading her reviews here and yelp it seems I am not the only one. If anyone else has gotten botched by her I advise they do the same. https://www.mbc.ca.gov/Consumers/file-a-complaint/

Worst experience in my life!!
I want everyone who is following her on Instagram and got impressed by her video of "amazing" transformations, PLEASE read this review before to make an appointment!
I'll skip the part of 1.5 hr. waiting time to see her on my appointment I was ok to wait.. more important to me was a result.
I came to get her famous face contouring with Radiesse filler. It's not reversible filler (you can't dissolved it after its done) so you have to be careful and really trust your doctor, so unfortunately I did trust dr Kay.. Now I know.. She placed filler everywhere but not the spots it needed to placed! I left with overfilled cheeks, almost nothing was added to lower part of the face (chin and jawline) AND (!) on my right side she injected filler way to high somewhere next to my eye instead of cheekbone (!) so after 3,5 month I still have a bump next to my eye and asymmetrical weird looking face!
After 1,5 month I contacted the office that I have an issue with the right side of my face and made an appointment. I sent them a photo (they asked me) and made an appointment. After a 2 hr waiting (again) she came to me and then I realized Dr Kay didn't even look at the photos I sent and she clearly thought I came for another procedures !) She started squeezing the bump next to my eye, said smth like I still have inflammation (even through filler completely settled down and she knew the Radiese won't go anywhere) Also she recommended to purchase some RF treatment in her office for $700, which is clearly have nothing to do with removing wrong placed filler...
So it's been almost 4 month and I have to wait 6 or more to get rid of this "amazing" work which I paid $2400 for... Every day I look at the mirror and wish "the luck" to dr Kay...
All my friends who were waiting to see dr Kay work result are now in shock!
I swear its my first bad review about cosmetic procedure (and I had experience before) I wasn't happy with some of the results more or less previously but now I really know what the bad work means!
