The Experience was Outstanding

I just had my third procedure with Dr. Bao Phan, and once again, the experience was outstanding. His precision and gentle approach result in minimal pain, zero bruising, and almost no downtime — it’s truly unbelievable how smooth recovery has been every time. Dr. Phan clearly takes great care to avoid unnecessary trauma, and it shows in both the healing process and the final results. His entire staff is also incredible — warm, professional, and always willing to go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and informed. If you’re looking for a surgeon who delivers exceptional results with care and compassion every step of the way, Dr. Phan is the one to see.

Damn! Beautiful Fat Transfer to Breasts

At my age (42) and after breastfeeding two babies (a long time ago) my boobs were decent in size but pretty much lifeless. I’ve been wanting to get breast augmentation for a while now but wasn’t sure implants were for me – so I was really excited to learn about fat transfer to breasts. I was even more excited & happy to find that Dr. Phan does this procedure in Hawaii. I dove in – did lots of research & obsessed over his gallery of before & after photos!

Dr. Phan is absolutely wonderful. He is very knowledgeable and shared a lot of information with me during the consultation. He is real & honest- he did an exceptional job explaining the entire process and was very understanding of what I wanted & needed.

I can’t explain to you how nice his team is too! It was always a pleasant conversation while scheduling and planning for the operation. The day of I couldn’t feel more comfortable and cared for. It was really, really nice – especially because I was so scared. Overall I would say it went perfectly for me. Very smooth, very easy.

I just took extra strength Tylenol post operation and that’s it. I was able to catch a flight back home the next day and back to my office job a few days later.

I am in love with my new real boobs- that are all me! I am also sooo happy with my bottom half too – my swelling is almost pau and my shape is coming through. I’m starting to feel really confident about my body again!

It’s been 3 weeks now & I have absolutely no regrets and definitely worth all of it! I couldn’t be more grateful to Dr. Phan and his entire team for making my dream come true.

been one of the best most life changing choices

I had a breast reduction with Dr. Phan early this year, a procedure I had wanted for literally 20 years. I am so incredibly grateful I chose him as my surgeon, he has a calm presence that you can tell comes with decades of experience and answered all my questions pre surgery. His whole team was so kind and he was super available to me post surgery as well, which I know isn’t always the case with surgeons. His office and surgery room is beautiful and light, so much better than a hospital! Overall this has been one of the best most life changing choices for my self confidence and I’m so grateful I decided to have Dr. Phan to create it.

He is Amazing

My first experience with Dr. Phan was 15 years ago, when he fixed a botched procedure done by a different surgeon.

I recently had a mini face lift and chemical peel by Dr. Phan, I’m so happy with the results he did such an amazing job. I had no bruising with minimal swelling and redness. I was back in the gym on the 6th day. He made me feel very comfortable during the entire process, I had no anxiety. He also gave me the option to have my procedure done under local numbing instead of general anesthesia. I was all in for that because I didn’t like the side affects from anesthesia, especially experiencing nasuea.
He’s been my surgeon for 15 years and always goes the extra mile.
Dr. phan is an exceptional surgeon, his experience and professionalism shows in his work, because he’s the best I never worry about the end results because he always exceeds my expectations and more. Dr. Phans team has been an exceptional team, always available to answer questions and always giving me the best support needed. They always made me feel like I’m apart of the family.
I highly recommend Dr. Phan and his team based on the positive experience that I’ve had in the past 15 years.

Extremely Wonderful Surgeon and Office

Dr. Phan is a wonderful surgeon. Very intelligent, thorough, and attentive. I would confidently recommend him to anyone. His staff (Amber and Kenzie) are incredible too and so caring. Just a wonderful office and couldn’t recommend more.
