Best decision I ever made! When I am around other 50 year olds, people always tell me how fabulous I look. Thank you again, Dr. David. My results speak for your mastery and your skills. This is a pic of my 82-year old Mom (she hasn’t had any work done) and me May 2023.

What a difference a year makes. Now, I admit, I had lip injections done so what you are seeing this in this picture is a result of another surgeon doing that work. But all other facial work was done by Dr David. He is terrific. I am so beyond pleased with my results. I no longer live in San Diego, sad to say, but I will gladly fly back there to have him to all my, “enhancements.”

Wow! Pretty before and even prettier after!

Thank you so much. To this day, I am thrilled with my results. If I ever need something done, I will go to Dr. David and ONLY Dr. David. He is a master!

I’m scheduled with Dr David for f/l, fat transfer and laser later this month. You look beautiful!! Did you happen to get cheek implants?
June 4, 2023
Hi there, thank you so much for the compliment! I feel fabulous every day. He truly is a master at his craft. I did not get cheek implants. I was too worried about uneven settling so I opted not to do it. He did an aggressive enough fat transfer to the area to make it look like I had cheek implants so what you are seeing is the result of that.

Good luck. You chose the absolute best facial surgeon ever :)

Thank you! And thanks so much for getting back to me!

How are the scars looking now? Are they noticeable? Your results are beautiful! But i worry about scars. Thank you
June 16, 2023
Scars? What scars? Those were Dr. David’s words during my follow-up appt. The way he places them you cannot see them. I followed the post-op care to the letter and you cannot seem them at all.

Thank you. I think I just made my surgeon choice:)
June 17, 2023
You made the right choice. So excited for you! Keep me posted!!

you look so great, thank you so much for sharing this in such depth. very generous of you. How did you choose him in the first place? Was it because of someone else working with him or reviews...? Was it a deep plane lift? Any numbness or complications? I am so happy for you - you look so great!
September 29, 2023
Thank you for the compliment. I chose him based on my own research. I must have looked at 1,000 patients’ before and after pictures from other surgeons and his were clearly the best outcomes in my humble opinion. No complications at all. I did the La Jolla Lift. I am kicking myself for not including my forehead in the lift BUT he didn’t think I needed it at the time of surgery. He is seriously the best. I trust him implicitly. He will do all my work in the future.

I couldn’t stand my saggy jowls and the start of a Turkey neck. Plus, having a tired look all over.

You looked good before, you will look even better after! May ask your age?

You look great. Your puppy is cute too. Is it a dachshund?
March 7, 2022
Yes! He is a miniature wirehaired daschund.

I thought this was the "After" pic. You were already beautiful. I'm looking forward to seeing the after pics though. Hopefully he did't ruin your gorgeous profile!
June 16, 2022
Aw thank you so much. He did a great job on my profile—pure enhancement, not change. Thanks for the reminder. I need to post more updated pics.

it takes a year to see the long term result of the work, specially the nose. by three months people tend to like what they see but there's residual swelling for at least 9 months that effects how you look. most like the extra plumpness and that the tissue has not relaxed from surgical trauma yet. a nose takes a year to see the full refinement but by 9 months out it's at 90% where it will end up at. upper eyelids may seem too tight at first, but will relax by 6 to 9 months. the time to get worried about upper eyelids is when you can't close your eyelids. that's a problem that got to be fixed to protect the eyes

Beautiful results!!!
Do you recommend?

100%. I will only go to him.
