Ranch and Coast Plastic Surgery - Del Mar

Dr. Balikian was everything. I could go on for a bit…his enthusiasm, his vision for the results, his care for the patient. Professionalism, depth of latest techniques and treatments. Wonderful crew. As I have said he does not do plastic surgery, what he does is soul work. My photos speak to his expertise. You will not be sorry when you work with Dr. Balikian. I promise! Heather

BREAST REDUCTION, LIFT, AND IMPLANTS. I couldn’t be more pleased with my experience from start to finish. From my very first consultation through my post-operative follow-up visits, every member of the team has provided exceptional care, professionalism, and compassion. The pre-op process was seamless, thorough, informative, and reassuring, leaving me confident and fully prepared for surgery. On the day of my procedure, the staff made me feel completely at ease, treating me with genuine kindness and attentiveness. My surgeon was not only incredibly skilled but also personable, patient, and truly invested in achieving the best possible outcome for me. The level of precision, artistry, and care exceeded my expectations. The post-op and continued follow-up care have been equally outstanding. Every concern or question I’ve had has been met with prompt attention, and the staff’s continuity and consistency have been remarkable. I am now 2.5 months post-surgery and absolutely thrilled with my results both physically and emotionally. The transformation has been life-changing, and I am so grateful to have been in such capable, compassionate hands. This experience has been nothing short of extraordinary, and I can confidently say the entire team goes above and beyond in every aspect of patient care.

I had septorhinoplasty with Dr. Chasan and it was truly life-changing. From start to finish, he and his team were professional, attentive, and incredibly skilled. I felt heard during every consultation, and he made sure to understand exactly what I wanted while guiding me with his expertise. My results exceeded every expectation I had. Not only do I breathe better than ever, but the aesthetic outcome is absolutely stunning — natural, balanced, and perfectly suited to my face. Looking at my before and after photos, the transformation is remarkable yet still me. The recovery process was smooth, and the staff made me feel supported and cared for every step of the way. If you’re considering rhinoplasty or septorhinoplasty, I can’t recommend Dr. Chasan and his team enough. This was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

Dr. Francis is amazing. I had a tummy tuck and lipo 360 and I couldn't be more happy with the results. Everyone in the office is so kind and helpful. Very professional! I am now 4 weeks post up and will update with pictures once I am fully healed.

The characters permitted within this box do not provide me with enough space to gush freely about how grateful I am for Dr. Francis and his team!! I am BEYOND thrilled with my results. I feel more confident than I ever have before in my new skin, or shall I say lack of it. (: Before the procedure I was limited on what I could wear comfortably because of my stomach and floppy breasts which greatly impacted my self-esteem. Now this 41 Y/O woman is wearing cropped tops, bikinis and form-fitted shirts without feeling self conscious about bulge to my bra-line, belly protruding or breast flaps inhibiting my ability to wear trendy, stylish clothing. I even weaned myself off of my antidepressants as my confidence is at an all time high. LFG!!!!

Nine months ago, I underwent a transformative journey with several facial rejuvenation procedures, including a deep plane facelift, neck lift, upper and lower blepharoplasty, and CO2 laser treatment. Now, reflecting on that experience, I am thrilled to share my story. Looking back at my initial consultation with Dr. Balikian, I was excited to have finally made the appointment but had some hesitation and anxiety. He and his staff treated me with kindness and demonstrated their ability to listen to address my concerns. I left feeling confident that I had found the perfect surgeon and surgical team to perform my procedures. The first few weeks involved swelling and redness but overall pain and discomfort was very minimal. Any concerns I had were quickly addressed by Dr. Balikian and staff. As the swelling subsided my face began to take on this beautiful contour and youthfulness. From the initial consultation to the final follow-up, my surgical team demonstrated exceptional care and expertise. They listened to my concerns and expectations, providing a detailed plan that left me feeling confident and supported. I am reminded that the healing process takes 12 months but I am so pleased with my results already! I am so grateful to have found Dr. Balikian. His expertise and compassion have transformed my entire outlook on life. I look and feel younger and more confident than I have in years. This has been one of the best decisions in my life. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Balikian to anyone contemplating facial plastic surgery.

I couldn't be happier with my results. I'm 52, I had the deep plane neck and jaw lift with a brow lift and fat transfer. I just was so unhappy with the jowls that I saw when I looked in the mirror every day. I spend a lot of time on zoom and I was going through ever-increasingly-complex lighting and camera angle contortions to avoid looking at my own neck and jawline. I like my face. I liked my face before the surgery and I just feel like the procedure gave me back the face I expected to see every morning. By 2 weeks after surgery I was at a party for my husband's birthday. I still had swelling but I was totally presentable. Now, it's been a year and a few months. I can't remember what it was like to have jowls and a droopy neck. I feel great and most importantly, I feel like I look like me, just refreshed, reset to where I want to be.

I am so pleased with my whole experience at Balikian Plastic Surgery! Dr. Balikian knew exactly what I needed! The procedure and my recovery has been seamless. I now recognize myself again! Also, Dr. Frew was so precise and detailed. He gave me the figure I once had. I am so happy!

The entire experience was professional and exceeded my expectations. I am extremely happy with my results. I am in the medical field and was very thorough with my research. Dr. Balikian had come highly recommended and I knew I made the right choice. A few of my colleagues did not know I had the face and neck lift. When returned to work one asked if I was “doing something new with my makeup” and how beautiful I looked. Another asked if I had been to a retreat because I looked “so refreshed”! Thank to the entire staff !

I had an amazing experience and couldn’t be happier with my results . Everyone was so professional and kind. They were all so helpful on answering all my questions and the recovery was beyond my expectations . I had no pain.
