Amazing everything—such lovely staff and environment!

Dr. Robert, Ashley, and Miss Kim! Such lovely staff and environment! I’ve been healing so good and I’ve already lost 4” off my body in a week! Barely any time outside of my tender bruises! 20/10 definitely recommend!

Always Great Results

I had a great experience with Dr. Robert, I have been seeing him for my cosmetic procedures for many years. Always had great results. I did many different procedures and treatments. I love that he has several locations and all of them are conveniently located and beautiful. Staff members always professional, knowledgeable and friendly. I've been recommending Dr. Robert to all of my friends.

Bodytite Success

Bodytite procedure was a success! The longtime stubborn fat on my lower abs shrunk by 5 inches and it is only 3 months post op. I’m very satisfied and definitely grateful that I considered this. Dr. Robert is awesome and knows what to recommend for the result you want. Will come back again

Dr. Mirzania / LA Lipo Experience

Here is my experience and review. My surgery was last week Friday. My doctor was Dr. Mirzania. Ok, let me tell you!!!! He is SOOOO GOOD!!!! I’m so so happy he took care of me and he did my surgery. He really makes sure you look good and took into consideration everything I wanted which was to still keep my shape. During surgery he was always communicating with me and making sure I was doing abs feeling well. Now, with the nurses. They are all so nice, friendly, comforting. I was mind blown with my experience and didn’t expect that great of care especially given I’m in the health care field and know how things work. This was service that was above and beyond what I expected. I’m so happy I decided to go to la lipo, have Dr. Mirzania take care of me and the staff, I mean everyone, I can’t leave anyone behind because everyone was so caring.

Mini Tummy Tuck

Finally!

Dr. Hamid Mirzania and his staff were very professional, made me feel comfortable, safe & well taken care of! both before & after my surgery. My nurse Beta was super caring & supportive during my procedure and after with my healing process and made it the easiest experience ever. Dr. Mizarrian did an amazing job, I couldn't be any happier! Highly recommend Updated on 23 Jan 2020: I am very happy with the results, it's not perfect but I couldn't more be happier. I think wearing the compression garment at all times has helped me get better results. Massaging area twice a day, taking Arnica pills and Arnica tea. I didn't experience much pain or bruising, some swelling. I healed pretty quick and back to my normal activities. Updated on 11 Apr 2020: The surgery looks great! I still wear the tummy garments at night. I feel awesome, I exercise almost every day. I wear everything I want, when before I always covered my mid area all the time. I couldn’t be more happier with the results.

SO Worth It!

First let me preface by saying to first get into as good of shape/eating habits as humanly possible. That will help immensely! Got lower/upper abs, love handles and lower flanks done. About 2 months into post-op and quite happy. No more tummy wrinkles and my pants are almost falling off - and I'm OLD (47)! Doctor O'Connell and staff are great and you'll definitely get what you give. Thanks for listening!

Yessssss

Sooooo worth it! I'm just one month post and I'm already looking much better. What I would say, though, is get in as good of shape as possible and obtain good eating habits/gym habits as possible first. I really feel that is why I've been able to heal well so far.

Desperately Seeking Results with SmartLipo!

This is a story. I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Robert this past November for a liposuction consultation. I had a few small problem areas that I could not get rid of with diet and exercise. Additionally, I had a previously treated area that was uneven with a lot of scar tissue that I really wanted corrected. Let me start with how easy it was to obtain an appointment. Using their website and "contact us" option, I was responded to by the next day. When I called to schedule the appointment, I was able to get the location and a day that was perfect with my schedule. I had to wait a few weeks, but I would expect as much having such specific scheduling needs. After waiting for several weeks and driving 30 minutes to their office, I received a text that said "we need to reschedule your appointment." Nooooo! So I called the office and explained to Daisy that I was already there. She said the doctor was delayed in surgery and that I would have to wait, but that they would get me in. No problem! Consultation begins. Dr. Robert is a very personable doctor. He has a lot of energy, a good sense of humor and explains things very clearly. He starts with a medical questionnaire to determine candidacy. Then, he has you step on a scale (just mean lol) and proceeds to calculate your BMI. It doesn't matter how small the area is that you want to have done, there is a $200+ increase in charge, per area/side, if you are over on your BMI. That was a bit of a disappointment. I would have to lose 10 pounds to be "normal" and by then, probably won't feel that I need lipo. Dr. Robert did explain the reason very well and it did make sense; however, I personally didn't feel that my areas of concern warranted such a big jump in price. But, it is how they do things and I respect it. It is a business, after all. So, I work my butt off, literally, and shed 14 pounds. I called the office and said that I was ready to book and had lost the weight in order to avoid the additional BMI fee. They scheduled my pre-op and my procedure and stated that I would be reassessed during the pre-op for the BMI adjustment. That seemed reasonable. So, I arrive for pre-op, gung-ho! Dr. Robert came in and it was as if he did not remember me at all. In his defense, my body looked pretty different with a 14 pound weight loss. BUT, my problem areas that I went to him for to begin with were still there, just smaller. Dr. Robert tells me that the areas are too minor and there is nothing he can do. WHAT????? I've done everything I could to get ready for this. I am here for pre-op. Surgery is scheduled in 3 weeks! I need these awful, unsightly areas sucked out and fixed! Help me! Dr. Robert gives me the very glum scenario that all he can do is laser lipo, no suction, and there is absolutely no guarantee that I will see an improvement. In fact, he was adamant that I needed to be clear and 100% OK with spending the money and being prepared for no change whatsoever. As any of you are reading this, can you get a sense of how disappointing this was to hear? Dr. Robert decides that he wants me to take some time to think about this. He has me re-schedule my pre-op to allow me the time to really wrap my head around my options. 1. Spend the money and get ZERO change. 2. Don't do it at all 3. Take the chance and maybe, just maybe, get some improvement on these nasty areas that I lovingly refer to as my "nuggets". Anyone who knows me KNOWS that doing nothing was absolutely not an option. I HAD to at least have Dr. Robert try. Why Dr. Robert? Because he has made a career out of liposuction. He does it day in and day out. He performs liposuction 6 days per week. If anyone knew liposuction, it would be Dr. Robert. I return for my 2nd pre-op and await Dr. Robert. He did not remember me AGAIN. My hair may have been different, but I felt like I was there for the first time. I had to re-explain my concerns, show him the same "nuggets" and hear the same speech about what he couldn't do. "Dr. Robert, Honey, you may not remember me but I remember YOU. We discussed this. I NEED you to TRY and help me." I am here specifically to see you because this is what you do practically every day of your life. I know it may not help, but I need to try!" I was practically begging him. I finally felt like I got through to him. I assured him that I knew the risks and I was willing to take them. The "nuggets" bothered me SO much that I could not NOT give the laser lipo a shot. I arrived for my procedure and brought a little gift to ensure that the entire team would remember me. I brought a specialty pastry and drew on the box, "REMEMBER ME! :-)" It got a giggle. Dr. Robert came into the room and said, "Now, WHO are you?" Of course, I got a nice hug and he was ready to go to work! He marked me up and addressed every area that had me so concerned. The staff...Beta, Kim, Linda...all so wonderful!!! Even after ALL of the previous times of feeling irrelevant and dismissed and flat out forgotten, I was comfortable and KNEW I was in the right place. If anything was going to help, this was it. The procedure went off without a hitch. Easy and completely painless. Dr. Robert explained everything as he went, making sure to check-in on me often to be sure that I was comfortable. I am only 4 days post procedure. Too much swelling to tell if only having laser lipo made a difference, but I am feeling optimistic and looking forward to my results. I will keep you informed and will post pictures when I can. Updated on 25 Jan 2019: These are the pre laser liposuction photos. I am 6 days out from my procedure and looking forward to seeing the results once the swelling goes down. Keep in mind, no suction was performed on these areas, only laser lipo.

Please check out other doctors before this place

I didn't get good results with the mini tummy tuck and smart lipo it was a waste of my 6 grand and they just chalked up my bad results to diet and exercise. When they had a doctor who specializes in orthopedic surgery perform my smart lipo, I have seen people with much more fat then I had with great results, and the doctor had the nerve to ask have I gotten results the only thing unheard people saying is I got botched wow! I notice the doctor is no longer on the website. Please check out other doctors before this place.

Beyond disappointed - results look similar to what I started with

I had smart lipo on inner thighs and back (upper,mid,bra,flanks).I complained the back fat wasn’t removed satisfactorily, results look similar to what I started with after five months. The the pic of the fat removed after surgery had at least 30% blood mixed with fat. I lost zero inches after it all my bra fits the exact same if not tighter. I was told at follow up after my complaint with the medical director (he acted like he didn’t know why I was there) what was left was tissue.Fat is adipose tissue so that made zero sense and I Was so flabbergasted I couldn’t even comment at the time.He tried to tell me if I wanted it corrected I needed a back tuck. I have indentations on my thighs that were not there previously snd are severe due to the surgery. I was told after a year they can fill them at my expense!!? I got a second opinion and they said it was a hack job and they can correct it but I can’t afford to get that done after the $9000 I was charged for the poor results. There are 11 incision sites on my back (6 on one side and 5 on the other) and 8 on my thighs (I only got inner thighs, four each leg). I complained about that and was told they could take one to two years to heal. It looks like I have chicken pox scars all over my back and legs now.I can’t get any money back apparently and I am so beyond disappointed. Beware
