Reviews for San Francisco, CA plastic surgeon Dr. Charles Lee Face Procedures

Dr. Lee Helped Me Achieve What I Wanted! - Dr. Lee is the best surgeon I could ever ask for. I came in to get my nose done after not liking the implant that was inserted by another surgeon. The results were what I was looking for and my only regret was that I didn’t come to him first. More

Facelift - 1.5 months post op - I found Dr. Lee first for a revision for my left upoer eyelid correct. He did a good job and has a very good personalty and i feel like i can trust him with bigger operations such as my facelift that i got 1.5 month ago. The recovery was very fast and no complications. He is very patient and makes everything easy. I did not worry and knew i was in good hands. More

Abdominal Liposuction with Fat Transfer to Breast - I had surgery with Dr. Lee in June of 2024 to address two concerns. First, I had a prior breast augmentation with a different provider and felt the implants settled a bit too far apart and wanted more fullness toward the center as it was difficult to create cleavage without wearing a sports bra. Second, I wanted to remove some fat on my stomach and around my waist.To address these concerns he performed liposuction across my stomach, above the belly button, and onto the waist area to achieve a good shape before then transferring that extracted fat predominately on the inside of each breast to create more fullness there and allow better cleavage. Dr. Lee was very helpful and kind in listening to my concerns and helping me come up with an effective surgical plan to achieve the desired outcome. The nursing staff including both Maggie and Jessica who I worked with were incredibly kind and kept up very good communication addressing all my concerns, navigating the insurance coverage, and making sure I was able to be stress free from start to finish. Now at about six weeks out I'm very happy with this stage of the recovery, looking forward to seeing the final appearance!Updated on 25 Jul 2024:The combined image in the post was compressed really small and as a result you couldn't make out any of the details. There are no major updates to my health or my results since yesterday but the site requires me to type 200 characters so here are a bunch of extra words that don't really mean anything. I'm still just as happy as I was yesterday lol.Anyway, so here are the pictures individually, hopefully it doesn't make them tiny and blurry! More

I love Dr. Lee! Natural looking facelift & scarring is very minimal - Dr. Lee has been a fantastic plastic surgeon. He has been patient and thorough through out the whole time I have been a patient with him. I came to him because I have noticed I have more sagging on my face and needed some help to feel more confident. He was did a face-lift for me about 6 months ago and I love my results! The results are so natural looking and I'm very happy with how things turned out. The scarring is very minimal and barley noticeable. I cannot recommend him enough! More

50+ & youthful! Very happy with fat grafting to lower lids from belly - Went to Dr Lee seeking procedures for my eyes and was very happy with the fat grafting procedure to my lower lids.(from belly). Had no issues and barely any down time. Love his natural approach and gfs have since booked consultations and surgeries having seen my results! Will continue to work with Dr Lee to maintain youthful appearance at age 50+!! More

Feeling More Refreshed and Youthful After Facelift - I have been considering a face lift surgery for a couple of years now as a retirement gift to myself. Working long hours and not having enough time for myself for the past few decades have aged my face to a point where I felt and looked older than my actual age. I was recommended to Dr. Lee by a good family friend who just had the upper blepharoplasty by him and the results were naturally amazing. I went in for a consultation to discuss the process of getting a facelift and after seeing before and after pictures I was all in! Dr. Lee was very professional, knowledgeable, and personable. The ladies that work with him are also very friendly and guided me the whole way. I had the MACS Facelift with Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty in November 2019 and the results are remarkable. I honestly can say that because Dr. Lee and his staff were so attentive and informative, it made the recovery process so much easier. Every question I had was answered in a timely manner regardless of how trivial I thought my question was. Dr. Lee is highly skilled and I recommend for everyone to see him! Now I’m just waiting for COVID to be over so I can travel and enjoy retirement and my new found youth. More

Natural and Refined Nose - I am a current patient of Dr. Charles Lee who just had the Rhinoplasty procedure. I am filipino and have always wanted to reshape my nose and make it more narrow and give it more height as it is naturally FLAT. I was so glad to hear that Dr. Lee has a lot of experience with Rhinoplasty and asian noses in particular. I wanted a natural but more refined look, and Dr. Lee was able to do just that. I am so happy about the results of the procedure. The whole process went very smoothly. His staff were very polite and professional. Instructions and expectations were clearly explained to me. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking into getting rhinoplasty. More

Go see Dr. Charles Lee! - My experience with Dr. Charles Lee and his staff was above amazing!!!! I would give them 10 stars if I can!I got a Rhinoplasty done 7 months ago and I'm over the moon with my results! I had a flat and wide nose and Dr. Lee was able to give me the perfect nose! He listened and answered all my questions and was very honest. His staff is very knowledgeable and friendly as well. Just love this office! THANK YOU DR. LEE!! From a very ecstatic patient!!! More

Buccal fat removal - Just got done with the buccal fat removal procedure. The procedure was less lingual than I expected it to be. My face is pretty swollen currently. Hopefully I’ll go down. Doctor recommended me to be on a soup And soft food diet for at least a week. More

Asian Eyelid Surgery Was a Breeze - Since I was very young girl, I've always wanted to find a solution for my monolids. I am your typical girly girl and creating different looks with make-up has become a passion of mine. I found it hard to show my creativity with eyeshadow since I had monolids. After much research and numerous consultations up and down the coast, Dr. Charles Lee's office by far had the most pleasant and most knowledgeable staff. Dr. Lee was very warm and welcoming. Dr. Lee took his time to explain everything in detail and gave me important insight on the procedure as well as what my options are with how I want my creases to look like. He showed me before and after photos of his previous patients with similar cases and different results (height and crease shape) depending on the outcome of how the patient wanted to look after surgery. I loved how all the results from his previous patients had looked so natural. Fast track to today, I am 1 year post surgery and I am more in love with my eyelids. So many of my friends/family have noticed a difference in me but couldn't pinpoint what changed, but I proudly say that I had Asian Eyelid Surgery with Dr. Charles Lee. Since then, a couple of my friends have also come to see him for their cosmetic procedures (Asian Eyelid Surgery, Rhinoplasty, Breast Augmentation as well as injectables). I am forever grateful for Dr. Lee's expertise, professionalism and even for just being such a genuine person, but most importantly for this life changing experience that I've been waiting to do for the longest time. Thank you, Dr. Lee and your awesome staff for making this journey a breeze. More

Wonderful Experience and Even Better Outcome! - I’ve always had chipmunk cheeks my whole life and recently found out there’s a procedure to take the fat out from your cheeks - Buccal Fat removal. After doing extensive research (with the help of Realself), I made a few consultation appointments with a plastic surgeon. Ultimately, I chose the wonderful Dr. Lee to move forward with the procedure. The procedure itself was not as bad as I thought. I was so nervous the morning of my surgery but his staff and OR technician was soooo nice! Dr. Lee explained everything he was going to do and gave me the injection to numb me. After that, I felt nothing! The procedure was over before I knew it. Dr. Lee took out the fat and placed dissolvable sutures on each side of my cheeks and I was done. It’s been 3 months since my procedure and I am soooo happy with my results. Many thanks to Dr. Lee and his rockstar staff!!! You guys rock! More

No more chubby cheeks-Buccal fat removal - I thought a long time about buccal fat removal procedure to reduce my chubby cheeks. I didn’t know this kind of procedure even existed. A friend of mine introduced me to L plastic surgery in San Francisco, telling me about this amazing procedure. After I got this procedure, my face went from being chubby to slim. I was really nervous with the procedure but I am extremely happy to have this procedure done. The staff is always very professional and caring and Dr. Lee is an amazing surgeon and made me feel safe. I recommend him to anyone, I trust him! More

Breast cancer survivor - I am a breast cancer survivor who had reconstructive surgery with Dr. Lee a few years ago. I had to come back into his office for a few follow up visits, so I really got to know Dr. Lee and his staff. He is always welcoming and made me feel safe and assured. His reconstructive work was impressive to say the least. I was so happy with his work that I came back this year to have a mini facelift,... More

50+ Looking Better Than Me in my 30's. San Francisco, CA - I was originally introduced to Dr Lee after my husband had his varicose veins treated. He was so personable and took such good care of my husband, that I felt comfortable talking to him about my "areas of concern". I am over 50 years old and was feeling "saggy" so I ended having a tummy tuck, liposuction and a mini facelift. Not only did Dr Lee make me feel comfortable and explained everything in detail so I understood what to expect, my results turned out amazing! Its been almost a year since my last procedure and I'm feeling better than when I was in my 30's. More
