Breast Implant Revision
3 months post-op
I am very pleased with my results and so grateful for Dr. Chasan and his team. I was so happy with the friendliness at the office, the assistance with setting up financing and the ease of every appointment. I feel like family every time I call or come into the office. I was loosing hope for my reconstruction before coming here, because either the price was a range (one surgeon had a potential $10,000 price difference) or another doctor had a way of planning the surgery that didnโt quite make sense to me. I had my consultation with Dr. Chasen and felt immediate relief. I had complete confidence in his ability. I certainly recommend Dr. Chasen and his office for surgery.
For more information about my surgery and โsituationโ please continue to read.
I had a BA just over 10 years ago in Salt Lake City, and unfortunately, did not do enough research before hand. I got my implants just after I finished breast-feeding around 10 years ago. My original surgery was a great size, but unfortunately the implants were too far apart. Then after a year of getting fit at the gym, the implants were pushed out of the pocket and even further to the side, down and into my armpits. Since they had fallen out and they were due for a change, I started shopping around in San Diego and Los Angeles for a reconstruction surgery. I had almost lost hope before coming to Dr. Chasan.
When I came in for my consultation with Dr. Chasan, he explained my situation in more depth and showed me what he could do to help. My ribcage is curved, not flat; which is one reason they were so far apart. For other doctors, I was a โdifficult case,โ but for Dr. Chasan; he knew he would be able to help me with his mesh technology (internal bra). Dr. Chasan moved my muscles, gave me the best shape and size for the new implants and was able to give me a natural looking cleavage (which I never got in the initial surgery!). The ripples are gone, the weird muscle squishing my implants down is gone, it feels so good; I actually feel more feminine and sexy. Iโm so grateful for everyone at Ranch & Coast!
Highly Highly Recommend Dr. Chasan for Rhinoplasty Rhinoplasty
2 months post-op
I had a rhinoplasty by Dr. Chasan in February 2025 and am SO happy with the results. My nose is exactly what I wanted (if not better). He listened to what I wanted and did exactly that. Getting a rhinoplasty here was the best decision I have ever made, truly. I had been thinking about it for 10+ years but was too nervous previously. My friend got her nose done by him 1.5 years ago (her nose is amazing!) so when I started seriously considering it because I'm getting married this year and didn't want to hate every photo of my face (lol), I interviewed Dr. Chasan and 5 other doctors and am so glad I ended up going with Dr. Chasan. Best decision ever!!!
I Can't Be More Happier Rhinoplasty
3 months post-op
After my first consultation with Dr. Chasan for rhinoplasty, we discussed what could realistically be achieved and set clear expectations. He also brought up the idea of enhancing facial harmony through facial fat transfer, due to the volume I lost after shedding 80 pounds. Dr. Chasan explained that he could improve the balance of my jaw by about 50%, which was a significant improvement from my starting point. I really appreciated his honesty and thoughtful approach.
We scheduled the surgery for two months out. In the meantime, I browsed through his gallery to find wish photos and came across the endoscopic brow lift section. After my weight loss, I was left with heavy brows, so I returned to Dr. Chasan to ask whether this could be addressed as well.
Ultimately, we decided to proceed with a combination of procedures: septorhinoplasty, endoscopic brow lift, and facial fat transfer to achieve a more harmonious look. The results have been outstanding. I can't speak highly enough about Dr. Chasanโs bedside manner and surgical skill. Iโm currently almost three months post-op, and every single person whoโs seen my before-and-after photos has given me compliments. People who didnโt know me before, or havenโt seen me in a while, donโt even realize Iโve had surgery โ it all looks very natural.
The office staff and nurses are also incredible โ always responsive to emails and calls. I even received a few personal follow-up calls from Dr. Chasan himself to check in and see how I was doing, which meant a lot.
My overall experience has been phenomenal, and the results have exceeded my expectations.
I initially found Dr. Chasan by simply searching for the โTop 10 Plastic Surgeons in San Diego.โ I had a couple of consultations in Beverly Hills, but I didnโt want to travel for my procedures. From the top 10, I easily narrowed it down to the top four based on their galleries and board certifications. I then scheduled consultations with those top four. While the others were kind enough to redo morphs for me several times, I ultimately didnโt connect with their aesthetic as much. Dr. Chasan stood out, and Iโm so glad I chose him.
Back for Breasts! Reductive Augmentation & Lift Breast Implant Revision
11 days post-op
I Just wanted to share my continued five star experience at Ranch & Coast Plastic surgery with Dr. Chasan
A year ago I was very fortunate to have a
Del Mar thong lift as I mentioned in my previous review.
The results have been beyond outstanding. My confidence has been restored with my perky bum.
I had been wanting to have a breast augmentation/lift revision for a while and there was no question in my mind that I would be going back to see Dr Chasan.
He is an absolute wizard to say the least!
His expertise, talent, artistry, and thinking outside the box makes him an outstanding provider when it comes to these specialized niche procedures.
It wasn't that I just needed a breast augmentation revision. It was the fact I needed a reductive augmentation. That is not something I have seen any providers really discuss. That is why I had gone through 4 different other augmentations with a different provider in Beverly Hills where I just been given different implants and multiple lifts, but still had all this extra hanging breast tissue underneath. They would look OK at first and then overtime I became unhappy.
It kept causing my breast to sag and be uncomfortable. Also it was causing poor posture and not fitting in my clothes nicely.
Well, I just had my reductive augmentation a just over a week ago and Dr. Chasan performed his magic and I now have the breasts I've always wanted! I am now so happy with the size, symmetry/shape and they are the perkiest they have ever been in my entire life. Iโll follow up with photos after my one month post appointment.
Pain was very minimal and had hardly any bruising. All the staff, as always, Emery, Sasha, Mary and Jennifer were all extremely helpful, accommodating and kind throughout all my visits to the clinic. I highly recommend Dr Chasan to anyone who is looking for their dream body as he makes the dream come true. Thank you Dr Chasan and team Ranch & Coast!

Dr. Chasen is a skilled surgeon, he utilizes innovative methods and is a great specialist. He and everybody in his team are very professional, caring, compassionate, flexible, friendly and patient. You can't ask for more from a team of true professionals. I highly recommend Dr. Chasan.

The best! My results are fantastic. Breast Implant Revision
3 months post-op
My results are fantastic. I would say that my revision journey has been a challenge but Dr Chasan went above and beyond and came up with a way to fix the damage that had been done by other doctors. He did what no one else knows how to do. He didnโt have to but thatโs who he is. I once asked him if I was his most difficult case, he said โno but top 3โ. He stuck with me and like a wizard, gave me perfect results.
Breast lift last month and am loving the results Breast Lift
27 days post-op
Had a breast lift last month and am loving the results. I went from saggy to perky, with very little pain for only a few days after surgery. I cannot wait to go bikini shopping! Thank you to Dr Chasan and his wonderful team! Great choice and I would recommend to anyone!
Updated on 7 Apr 2025:
Here are my before and after photos at about a month or two post op. Love love love the results! Working with Dr Chasan and his team was a delight! Thank you for these great new boobs- I cannot stop looking in the mirror in awe! Again very little pain post op that essentially went away after a few days. I am very happy with them and am so happy I chose Dr Chasan. Definitely worth every penny!

Outstanding - truly exceptional level of care and expertise Breast Implant Revision
3 months post-op
I canโt speak highly enough about Dr. Chasen and his team. After undergoing multiple reconstructive breast surgeries to address persistent encapsulation, Dr. Chasen is the only surgeon who has been able to resolve the issue effectively. His approach is incredibly thorough; he truly takes the time to listen, understand, and tailor his techniques to address my specific needs. Dr. Chasen utilizes innovative methods I hadnโt encountered with other surgeons, and his dedication to follow-up care has ensured that the problem has not reoccurred.
The office itself is just as outstanding. From the front desk to the nursing staff, every person Iโve interacted with is warm, professional, and efficient. They go above and beyond to make each visitโwhether a simple check-up or a more involved procedureโas comfortable as possible. I feel at ease and fully supported every step of the way. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Chasenโs office to anyone considering plastic surgery or non-surgical treatments. The level of care and expertise here is truly exceptional.
Absolutely thrilled with how everything turned out Mommy Makeover
14 days post-op
I recently had a Mommy Makeover with Dr. Paul Chasan at Ranch and Coast, and I couldn't be more thrilled with my experience and results! From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel comfortable and welcomed. They're always enjoyable to be around. During my consultation, Dr. Chasan took the time to really understand my goals and showed me exactly how we could achieve the results I was looking for. He went over the procedure options, explaining everything clearly including looking through photos of his work on clients that were tailored to my body type. This made me feel confident in my decision, and I booked my surgery shortly after.
The surgery itself went incredibly well, and I felt I was in the best hands possible throughout the entire process. The aftercare was just as impressive. The staff made sure I was comfortable and well-cared-for as I recovered.
I am absolutely thrilled with how everything turned out. If you're considering any procedure, I highly recommend Dr. Chasan and the team at Ranch and Coast. They truly deliver incredible results with a personal touch.
Thong lift to remove the excess skin left hanging by a different surgeon Butt Lift
9 months post-op
Dr. Chasan is an AMAZING surgeon! I had been botched from a failed fat transfer around my hips by a different surgeon. I was left with asymmetries, but I specifically sought out Dr. Chasan to fix my deflated backside. The previous lipo in that area left me with sagging buttocks with double banana rolls. I came from out of town and, from the moment I met him, felt like I was in more than capable hands. He genuinely listened to me and assured me he would make things better. He helped me feel less anxious and he took his time explaining everything and answering my questions. I had a thong lift to remove the excess skin that had been left hanging. I absolutely LOVE what he did for me. He took a bad situation and turned it into something that gave me some of my confidence back. My butt looks so much better now! He truly is an artist and puts his patients first. I cannot recommend him enough! Brilliant, empathetic, dedicated surgeon whom Iโm so lucky to have found. Thank you Dr. Chasan! Iโm so happy to have found you!
