Worth ItFacial Fat Transfer

Fat Transfer - permanent solution that actually in the end is cheaper than continuous filler to the face.

I met Dr. Mehrzad about six months ago during my friends pre-op appointment. First of all he is one of the most brilliant, caring, and honest physicians I have ever met. Not to mention a genius (just google his credentials haha). My experience personally has been nothing but amazing. I have had the following procedure at his office performed directly by him: Daxxify - a new form of Botox that is absolutely amazing Elixir Laser- a combo of red, yellow and blue light therapy Fat Transfer from my thigh to my face. Dr. Mehrzad suggested Fat Transfer instead of fillers which I had no idea was an option. He explained to me how it’s a permanent solution that actually in the end is cheaper than continuous filler to the face. My results are absolutely AMAZING! I have had fillers in the past and spent thousands of dollars over the years but never achieved the results I wanted. Procedure: local anesthesia, lasted about 2 hours. Once the fat was taken from my thighs the remaining process is similar to fillers being injected into the face. I had fat transfer under the eyes and small surrounding regions Recovery: I was able to go about my day immediately and go to work. Of course I had minor bruising and minimal swelling. By Day 7 I looked pretty much 90% recovered. Results: I wish I knew about fat transfer sooner!! I’m absolutely obsessed and I would 100% recommend this to anyone thinking about ever putting filler in their face to do a fat transfer instead. I’m so pleased with my results and experience! I have an upcoming Tummy Tuck revision and rhinoplasty with Dr. Mehrzad and look forward to sharing those results as well! Definitely don’t hesitate to visit Dr. Mehrzad he will spend the time to answer all your questions and needs

Breast Surgery Experience in Los Alamitos – Felt Rushed, Anesthesia Price Changed Day of Surgery & Still Waiting on Records

In August 2025, I went to Ocean Plastic Surgery because I was experiencing significant pain in my right breast, which was making it difficult to sleep. During my consultation, the issue was described as potentially urgent (possible rupture, infection, or other complications). Because of that explanation, I was encouraged to schedule surgery quickly and was told the doctor had cleared his schedule the following week to accommodate me. Based on how the situation was explained, I felt that waiting might not be safe. At the time my family had just moved, and financially we were not really prepared to take on surgery. Looking back, I wish I had taken more time to obtain multiple consultations and estimates before moving forward. ? Day of surgery experience One of the most stressful moments happened on the day of surgery. The anesthesia price changed shortly before the procedure while I was already prepared for surgery. This created unexpected financial stress for my family at a time when it was difficult to step back from the situation. ? After surgery – documentation and insurance issues Since the procedure, I have been trying to gather the documentation needed to submit everything to my insurance company. I requested: • copies of my medical records • chart updates • my superbill • the anesthesiology billing documentation As of the time I am writing this review, I still have not received the updated chart that was promised or a copy of the final anesthesia bill, despite multiple requests over several weeks. Clear documentation is extremely important when trying to submit claims to insurance companies, and the delays have made that process much more difficult. Before surgery, I had also documented my symptoms and concerns and sent that information to the doctor, so there was written documentation of what I was experiencing. ? Insurance confusion Another thing that surprised me later was seeing advertisements from the practice stating that some procedures may be covered by insurance. When I spoke with the staff member responsible for procedure estimates earlier, I was told that working with insurance had been very difficult for the practice and that they likely would not be offering insurance-related cases going forward. Seeing advertisements mentioning insurance afterward was confusing. ? Additional experience – Botox Separate from the breast surgery, I also received Botox injections at the practice, and afterward I developed hooded eyelids, which was not something I had experienced with Botox treatments previously. ? Advice for others considering surgery I’m not sharing this experience to harm anyone, but because I wish I had slowed down and gathered more information beforehand. If you’re considering cosmetic or reconstructive procedures anywhere, I would recommend: • getting multiple consultations • asking detailed questions about anesthesia billing • asking how medical records and documentation will be provided afterward • understanding all costs ahead of time • confirming exactly what documentation you will receive if submitting to insurance I am currently organizing my records and documenting the timeline while working through the insurance submission process.
