John Park, MD

I had a lower blepharoplasty with a another surgeon who left me with hollowed eyes. Im 36 and probably wasnt a true candidate for a lower blepharoplasty. After so much mental anguish about the undesirable change in appearance I chose to seek the advice from Dr Park. Dr Park informed me that under eye filler would be a good option for my hollowed lower lateral parts of the eyes because fat graft to that area might leave me lumpy and bumpy. Dr Park placed 1 full syringe of Belotero under my eyes ( half under each eye ). He gave me very realistic expectations and never misguided me with false promises of perfection. However I must say the outcome was far better than I expected. He advised me to come back in a year or longer and not to over do it. Dr Park will not perform a procedure just for the money...he will be honest and tell you if your candidate or not.

I had an upper and lower bleph with fat grafting five weeks ago. I know I am not totally healed but I am so happy. I researched forever and decided I only wanted to see an oculoplastic surgeon. Dr Park was amazing! I have interacted with Char in the office multiple times and she’s phenomenal as well. Dr Park was very responsive after my surgery when I had some questions. He’s very informative and thorough too. I’m so glad I picked him. He did such an amazing job that no one can tell exactly what I did and that’s exactly what I wanted! Most people think I lost weight. I would 1,000% recommend him and it was money well spent!

This in depth review is for the people who are like me and are super picky and obsessive when researching! I was totally sure I wanted to go with Dr. Park after my fiance and I did a consultation with him. I really wanted to book with Dr. Park right after the consultation because he really impressed me, but since he was my first consultation, I still had to go to another one to compare my experiences for comparison purposes. During the consultation, Dr. Park explained in depth about the different types of implants, incision sites, and implant placement. His explanation of his technique of creating the implant pocket and his dual plane technique was what ultimately made the decision for me to go with him. He also mentioned he used the Keller Funnel when inserting silicone implants without me asking, so that was definitely another plus as that was very important to me as well. Dr. Park sat there for over an hour answering the endless amount of questions my fiance and I had without hesitation. Another thing I really liked that he did was how he showed us his method of picking implant size recommendations. He showed us the chart with the BWD and CCs for each profile and eliminated ones that wouldn't be ideal for me as he explained why. Dr. Park ended up recommending exactly what I wanted based on my research which was: smooth silicone implants, inframammary incision with dual plane sub muscular placement. His technique of deciding in the operating room with sizers was also interesting but made me nervous about his executive decision making while I would be unconscious. Dr. Park had recommended 275-325cc at the consultation and after booking my surgery date, I got nervous about the process again and asked him if we could add 350cc to the range for him to consider in the operating room. He was really nice about adding it to the mix. The day of the surgery, the nurses at Pavilion in Orange were all very nice and super friendly. As it was during Covid- I had to go in by myself and it's very nerve wracking without emotional support for a surgery so their presence helped me out a lot. My anesthesiologist (3rd party from Allied Anesthesia) was Dr. Edward Lee. I was also very anxious and worried about who the anesthesiologist was but everything turned out fine during and after the surgery! In the end, Dr. Park ended up using 325 cc high profile for me. He was considering 300 cc, but since I wanted potentially 350cc I think he was willing to compromise in the middle somewhere for me which is great. It's been 3 months since my BA and I couldn't be happier. At first, my left side was a lot higher than my right side, but eventually they mostly evened out! Initially, I thought the 325cc was a little large for my preference, but now that I've had more time to get used to them, I'm glad we didn't do 300cc or the 350cc that I wanted. It is the perfect size for me as I wanted them to look very natural and compliment my frame. I now wear about a 32C-D depending on the brand (my goal was a 32C and was previously a 32A). My friends and family couldn't even tell I got them done! Most thought I was just wearing a really good push up bra-- and that was totally my goal. If you're in the OC- Dr. Park is totally the doctor you should see! He also was very accommodating for me since I was an out of town patient. I could have gone to my mother's or my aunt's BA doctors who are quite popular/renown in the Bay area--but Dr. Park's natural work and detailed consultation made it totally worth it to make the drive to the OC and get it done.

I chose Dr. Park because he’s passionate about his work in addition to his impressive credentials with over 20 years of experience. His experience and time for medical school, residency, fellowship are from the top schools such as Keck (USC), Johns Hopkins, Mayo Clinic Schools, and UCI. He is also a double board certified doctor in ophthalmology and plastic surgery with sub-specialty fellowship training in oculoplastic surgery. Not only is Dr Park a skillful surgeon, he’s a meticulous sculptor-artist, and it shows in the beautiful way he “sculpted” my face! His attention to detail, experience, knowledge and thoughtfulness made me feel instantly comfortable. Dr Park spent a great deal of time guiding me through the surgery process on our first appointment, detailing symmetry and balance for my face which ingrained in me the confidence to begin my plastic surgery journey (brow-face and neck lift). Just after two weeks, I look so natural. There is nothing better than seeing yourself looking as youthful as you feel…I feel AMAZING!! In a time of auto attendants and hundreds of press-prompts which feels like forever before you reach a live person, I have NEVER experienced a team (Staff & Doctor) who are more available to their patients pre & post-surgery. I even received a call back even when I didn’t leave a message. And trust me, this is extremely important. Thank you Dr. Park from the bottom of my heart!

I am a vibrant 54 year old woman. Dr John Park completely understood my concern of looking like I had “work done.” The results far exceeded my expectations. I look natural, rested and I feel fantastic.

Incredible. I got a BA 8 months ago and Dr. Park is truly gifted!! I have a small frame and expressed my concerns with going too big, or too small. Dr. Park listened, looked at my pictures, told me what he thought but ultimately decided in the surgery room. Initially, I kinda freaked out thinking he went too big (obviously I'm not used to that!) but now I am SO grateful! They're absolutely perfect!!! You can't even see my scars, which I was also worried about with the peri-areolar incision. You would not even know they were there! Char at the front desk is also super helpful, she answered all my dumb questions too, quickly!

I am so glad I chose Dr. Park. From the very first consult to my most recent 4 week post op appointment he has been so pleasant to work with. His professional demeanor and calming presence is a breath of fresh air. When deciding on my breast augmentation, I visited and researched a few other doctors in the Newport area. I felt the most comfortable and informed when I went in to see Dr. Park for my consultation. He provided me and my husband a lot of information about the procedure, the recovery and answered all of our questions. He wasn’t pushy and spent enough time to go over everything thoroughly. Before I walked out of his office I knew he was the right doctor for me. Char, his office manager was able to squeeze me in for my surgery that week because of my schedule I was really hoping to get the surgery done asap. Otherwise it was going to be after the new year since he was completely booked up. My recovery seemed to go very smoothly. I didn’t have much pain. I was off the pain medicine after the 2nd day. I can’t believe I am already 5 weeks post op. I was back to work by 11 days and continued to feel better and better as time progressed. I am so glad I made the this personal choice to do this. I had 3 children and it was time to take care of me. I am beyond happy with my results and feel like I made the right choice by choosing Dr. Park.

I’m so happy I came across Dr. Park’s website when doing research for breast augmentation – he’s the best! He is extremely knowledgeable, thorough, friendly and listens to his patients. Most importantly I felt comfortable and trusted him completely. I met with two other surgeons in the area but knew after our first consultation that he was the surgeon I wanted to go with. I’m 5 weeks post-op and am loving my results. He has been promptly responding to all of my questions and concerns and doesn’t hesitate to answer questions. Thank you Dr. Park for this positive and life-changing experience!

Dr. Park is the best! I am so happy with my results. I had a bbl done by him, I was afraid of getting a bbl, but he made me feel comfortable, secure, and answered all of my questions. I didn't need to look for another doctor, the moment I left my first consultation with him I knew I would be in great hands. I feel so confident now with my new body! He did an amazing job, he is a gentle, caring, and kind doctor and his staff is great too!

Professional. Immaculate attention to details. Perfectionist. After going to two other consultations in Orange County, I walked away from their office beyond nervous than before and started to second guess myself. I was then referred to Dr. Park by one of his other patients and he was the third surgeon that I saw. Our initial consultation was in-depth, he took his time and was very attentive when it comes to answering all of my questions and concerns. I also didn't feel rushed as he explained to me my procedure and what to expect from it. At my pre-operative appointment, I was a little bit nervous and he reassured me that everything is going to be okay and even gave me a warm hug. After my horrible experience with the other two surgeons, it was such a breath of fresh air to talk to someone who truly cares about his patients. Also, my patient coordinator is AMAZING. Never once did she pressured me or gave me a cheesy sales pitch as to why I should choose Dr. Park. I'm about a month post-op now and I could NOT be happier with my results. This is something I've always dreamt of doing and I'm glad I chose the right person to do it. I'm beyond honored to give an easy, undebatable five deserving stars to Dr. Park. Thank you for changing lives through your craft.
