AREAS OF EXPERTISE

Breast Surgery

As a Beverly Hills breast augmentation and breast implant specialist, I have focused my practice on primary and revision breast enhancement procedures. My patients experience minimal pain and scarring, with a quick recovery. I offer the full spectrum of breast enhancement options, ranging from breast augmentation with implants or fat transfer to breast reduction and breast lifts (with or without implants). I find that breast enhancement procedures give my patients a huge boost of confidence.

Post-Pregnancy Procedures

Every mommy makeover is unique, but it typically involves a combination of a tummy tuck and a breast enhancement surgery, such as a breast augmentation or a breast lift, with or without breast implants. Implant selection should be based on a combination of your desired size, soft tissue dynamics, breast base diameter, and skin elasticity. For patients with overly large and droopy breasts, which can cause back and neck pain, a breast reduction is similar to a lift—the only difference being how much breast tissue is removed. A tummy tuck removes the excess skin and fat from the upper and lower abdomen. In my Beverly Hills practice, I often also perform liposuction of the flanks to achieve a smoother contour of the waist and create the “Coke-bottle shape” many of my patients want. If you’re interested in mommy makeover surgery in Beverly Hills, I recommend waiting until you’ve completed your family, since the physical changes caused by future pregnancies can alter your surgical results.

The Making of a 600cc Goddess

I had my surgery on October 29, and now six months later, I finally feel like I’ve come back into my body enough to put this into words. From the beginning, the entire staff felt like soft hands guiding me through something I didn’t fully understand yet. Everyone was so kind, so patient, so accommodating in a way that made everything feel a little less clinical and a little more human. I have Natrelle Inspira Moderate 600cc implants, and I’m glad I did, but I want to be very real about what this experience was like for me. This is not a light surgery. People treat it like something small because it’s “cosmetic,” but it's not a small surgery. It’s an upheaval. It’s physical, emotional, and strangely psychological. The first month… I was in so much pain. My body didn’t respond to the initial medication, and I felt trapped in that discomfort for a bit. But Dr. Desai adjusted my prescription to something that actually worked for me. That moment mattered more than I expected. I also went through post-surgical depression. My nervous system felt scrambled, like I had been unplugged and reconnected slightly wrong. Everything felt distant and heavy at the same time. I don’t think people talk about that enough. Healing isn’t just stitches and swelling, it’s your entire system recalibrating! And I want to be clear, this wasn’t due to Dr. Desai’s technique at all. My body is just extremely sensitive. It took me the full six months to feel normal again, to feel like myself, to feel settled. Around months 3–4, I started noticing pretty intense rippling, which honestly scared me at first. But as time went on, as a capsule formed around my implants, and everything softened and dropped into place, the rippling slowly began to disappear. The body knows what it’s doing, even when it looks uncertain in the middle. One thing I cannot stress enough: massage your breasts exactly how Dr. Desai tells you to. It helped so much with the settling process, it’s one of those small, repetitive things that quietly shapes the final result. For reference, I started as a 32A at around 110 lbs, and now I’m a 32DD. I feel like I stepped into a version of myself that was waiting for me. There’s something grounding about finally recognizing your own silhouette. I’m no longer adjusting or overthinking, I just exist and it feels right. I catch glimpses of myself and there’s this soft, almost surreal moment of recognition, like oh… this is me now. Not in a perfect way, just in a way that feels aligned and intentional. It’s given me this subtle “goddess” feeling, not loud or performative, just this private sense of presence in my own body that I didn’t have before. Dr. Desai understood exactly what I wanted, almost intuitively, and delivered it with precision. My main request was simple: not too high, not too "fresh off the table look,", just soft, voluptuous, maternal, more side boob, and natural. And that's exactly what I ended up with once everything healed If you’re considering this: don’t cheap out. Not on your surgeon, not on your implants. And don’t be afraid of CCs if you know what you want! Just respect the process. Your body will take its time, and you don’t get to rush it. I’m really grateful I chose Dr. Desai. This wasn’t an easy journey for me, but it was worth it. Dr. Desai has a very grounded, quiet confidence that made me feel safe from the start. He really listens, like actually hears what you’re trying to say, even when you don’t have the perfect words for it, and somehow translates that into results that feel aligned with you. He was attentive without ever feeling overwhelming, honest without being harsh, and patient in a way that made me feel supported throughout the entire process. What stood out most is that I never felt dismissed, even when I had concerns during healing, he took everything seriously and adjusted when needed. His skill shows not just in the final result, but in how he carries you through the experience, and that level of care is rare. If I could do it again, I would not choose any other surgeon! ????

Best Plastic Surgeon

I had an amazing experience with this surgeon from start to finish. The entire process felt professional, smooth, and very well organized. My recovery went really well, and I felt supported every step of the way. The doctor made me feel comfortable and confident in my decision, which meant a lot. I got 550cc Motiva implants, and I’m honestly so happy with the results — they look beautiful, natural, and exactly how I envisioned. Highly recommend to anyone looking for quality work and a great overall experience :)

Love my New Nose

Came to Dr. Desai after injuring my nose as a teen because I couldn’t breathe well anymore. I had a septorhinoplasty done and am able to breathe again and I’m not insecure about the crookedness of my nose anymore. Recovery was easy and fast. 10/10!

The Best Surgeon

I flew 18 hours to have my breast augmentation performed by Dr. Desai, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. His clinic is beautiful and uses advanced VR technology that allows patients to visualize different implant sizes and profiles before surgery, which made the decision process much easier. The morning of surgery I was nervous, but Dr. Desai and his team were so warm and attentive that I quickly felt at ease and confident in their care. Dr. Desai restored volume I had lost from breastfeeding and was even able to create a subtle lifting effect using implants alone. I am very happy with the results, and only regret is not doing this sooner. If you are considering a breast augmentation, you will not find a more skilled, meticulous, and caring surgeon than Dr. Desai.

Best Plastic Surgeon

I am trans patient male to female who wanted breast augmentation by Dr. Desai. I had my surgery 1 month ago after my friend Ali had her surgery with him. I looked at all of his reviews and social medial to make sure he was the right guy to go to. I loved his bedside manner and nurses! They made me feel so comfortable as I was really nervous for surgery. He is the best Plastic Surgeon in Los Angels and the best breast augmentation and best breast implant doctor in Beverly Hills.

I'm So Glad I Listened to Him!

I was very anxious about selecting a breast augmentation doctor, I finally narrowed it down to Dr. Desai. When I came into my consultation, he made me very comfortable and I knew I was in good hands! I wasn't sure what size to get, and he made a few suggestions. I'm so glad I listened to him on the sizing because I kept hearing from friends to go with a different size. Thank you Dr.Desai!
