VI Peel

mishal123

Amazing results

Dear Dr Zaka, I wanted to take few moments and thank you for all the treatments I have taken from you. I can see the visible results. I am very appreciative of the way you explain things, and your understanding of what I want from my treatment. What I love most about you is that you work with me at my comfort level. I like VI peel the best, and see visible improvement in my skin; I love the results. So far I have had two sessions of Micro Needling, my skin feels tight as a result and I would like to try that few more times. I am very interested in trying Sculptra.

SculpSure

40s male had SculpSure and Juvederm. Amazing results..!!

I am a male in my early 40s. In one word, my experience with Dr. Zaka, “AMAZING”. Read on… Just like majority of men at my age, I too started getting a little fat accumulated around my belly over the years. With my busy career and traveling, I don’t get as much time now to exercise or go to the gym as I used to. Over the years I gained a few inches around my belly. It was not excessive but still enough to where it definitely needed attention. As a man, I was not comfortable with surgical procedures which usually lead to down times and liposuction was out of the question as well. I heard about Sculpsure and found Dr. Zaka. We had a wonderful conversation on the phone and she explained the procedure as well as benefits of this procedure, especially for an individual like myself who could not afford any down time whatsoever. I made an appointment with her for the following week for my free Consultation. In the meantime, I called other practices in the area to inquire about their prices and to ask similar questions that I had asked Dr. Zaka. Most insisted that I schedule an appointment with the doctor and he would be able to answer all my questions and pricing at the office. Many others said that they’d call back but didn’t and many just did not know the answers to my questions. On the day of my appointment, I went in to see Dr. Zaka. She examined me and further explained the procedure for Sculpsure and advised that this would be a great procedure for me as it was not invasive and would only take a half hour and after that I could immediately go back to doing whatever I was doing. After my consultation I felt completely comfortable and excited about going ahead with this procedure so I asked her if it was at all possible to go ahead and do this treatment the same day since I was already there and luckily, she had an empty spot and worked me in. The procedure took a total of 25 minutes and was very tolerable. There were alternate cycles of cooling and warming sensations. I started noticing results in about 4 weeks and was going to get another treatment at 8 weeks but had to reschedule due to something that came up at work and Dr. Zaka was very accommodating. (It takes a few weeks to notice the results of the treatment because the dissolved fat cells get removed from your body over time so the results are gradual and continual over time and look very natural) My second treatment happened about 10 weeks later. At that time, I had already noticed huge results from my first treatment but wanted to go ahead and do the 2nd treatment anyways. I wanted to get rid of a little more fat. About 6 weeks after I did my second treatment I took a picture of myself and compared it with one I had taken before any of the Sculpsure treatments. The difference was night and day. I can now see the definition of my abdominal muscles that had been lost because of the layer of fat that obscured them. I now find myself looking for more tight-fitting shirts while shopping. My waist size has gone down 3 inches and it feels great. My clothes look better and fit better. While I was at the office getting my 2nd treatment for Sculpsure, I asked Dr. Zaka about the lines around my lips and nose, which were obviously much deeper than they were 10 years ago and easily give away a person’s age. (Age does creep up on you and you don’t notice. Only those who have not seen you in a while can notice) She suggested Juvederm which is injected directly into the deep lines and they plump up and give immediate results. Again, all I can say is “WOW”. The transformation was immediate, natural looking and the results will last anywhere from 1-1.5 years. To other guys looking for advice, stop thinking about it and get this done. I used to be very skeptical but after my results, I’m completely sold. Some more advice to fellow guys. A mid 40s guy who takes care of himself and pays attention to his appearance is very appealing to the ladies as well. Dr. Zaka is a very professional, polite, laid back, and down to earth kind of person and I am sure you too will feel just as comfortable with her as I did. Also make sure you talk directly to the doctor when inquiring or researching for a particular procedure, no matter what procedure. Dr. Zaka talks to all of her clients herself which, this alone gets uber points from me. Dylan

Everything Facial

Dr Zaka has performed many procedures, including Botox and fillers. I have never looked better. She has awesome follow up and is very flexible to my needs. She has all the current treatments for looking young: fillers, sculptra, peels, laser, Botox, ultherapy (which I highly recommend) and sculptsure (for fat dissolving). She knows exactly what do do for me.

Love the results of sculpsure!

Dr. Zaka is very professional and knowledgeable. Had two treatments on my lower belly. THe results are beyond my expectations. I have dropped a pant size. It’s a short treatment, just 25 minutes. I must admit I didn’t like the cramping during the treatment but it was tolerable. Thank you Dr Zaka.

Lip Filler Juvederm - Walnut Creek, CA

I went to Dr. Safoora Zaka, in Walnut Creek. She was super nice and explained the process even though this was my second time getting lip fillers (1st time different location). Dr.Zaka took the time to look at my lips and did her best to make them symmetrical. She even asked for my opinion in the middle of the procedure and made me feel comftorable letting her know what I wanted. These pictures are before pictures as well as after the procedure, not even a day after. I did not want to have duck lips and I just wanted a little plump/symetry. I will be going back for a follow up and the left over Juvederm filler in 2 weeks once everything settles so we can see what improvements we can make. The pictures I am posting show bruising, which is common, and will go away in a few days. I am still slightly swollen, keep in mind that it has not even been a full day post filler. So far the shape of my lips look good. Updated on 20 Jul 2016: Bruising is still there as well as a little swelling. I have been using Arnica gel and today I used parsley. Together they seem to be healing my bruises. Lips don't look exaggerated, which is good. Still settling so we will see what the final outcome is.
