Dr. Motykie Plastic Surgery

I just want to say Dr. Ellenbogen and his staff are nothing less then exceptional !! I am from the Bay Area where I had rhinoplasty. Unfortunately it didn't turn out what I had hoped. I am also a figure competitor and due to years of dieting I lost volume in my face. Instead of fillers I was hoping for facial fat transfer. Due to my low body fat I had been told it wasn't an option. Dr Ellenbogen came highly recommended to me. After meeting him I absolutely fell in love with his humor, bedside manner and extensive knowledge in all aspects plastic surgery. After my consultation I scheduled my rhino revision, facial fat grafting, and a few other things ;) It's been 8 weeks and I am extremely happy with my results. My changes are soft, elegant, and subtle. From my first contact with the office, through the surgery, and post op the care that I have received has been nothing less than first class.. far beyond my expectations. Thank you Dr Ellenbogen and staff!!! \r I don't understand why there are negative reports. This my friend is not a ""false "" report . I am a real patient. Dr Ellenbogen fixed a very poor Rhinoplasty I had previously done. Everyday I am more than please to see my reflection its perfect :) more

My father had a large skin cancer removed at the corner of his mouth and when it healed it scarred down tightly and he couldn't open his mouth. He couldn't eat or talk very well. Also the corner of his mouth turned down making him look unhappy.The doctors he went to couldn't fix it. I asked a client of mine whose husband is a plastic surgeon. Dr Ellenbogen took one look at it and of all the doctors i had consulted, he said he could fix this for my dad. He did the surgery in his Beverly Hills surgery center. . Not only can my father eat normally he looks as if he did before he had the extensive skin cancer surgery. We are so grateful to Dr. Ellenbogen .He treated my dad who is a cab driver with the same respect he gives to his celebrity clientsl.Bless you Dr. Ellenbogen. You are the most experienced, talented surgeon we have ever met. more

I found out about Dr. Ellenbogen around 2003 when a relative recommended him for plastic surgery. I was in my early 20's and for a while considered rhinoplasty, but did not know of a surgeon who could achieve the result that I wanted-that was something nice, natural looking, and a fit for my face. I saw a lot of nose jobs growing up (as common as it is) and felt that I had to continue looking until I found the right person to do the job. Dr. Ellenbogen corrects many bad nose jobs that other doctors perform, this tells you something. Finally, I contemplated going to Dr. Ellenbogen after visiting his website (beverlyhillsbody..) for years. I saw that he was an expert and worked on many types of cases , and did not perform an ordinary cookie-cutter nose job like some other doctors (believe me, there are a lot inexperienced ones out there). It was a match, so I made an appointment for a consultation. I was really excited and a little anxious, and remember the counselor asking me if I needed more time to think about it, but I couldn't wait any longer and felt ready. Before my consultation, I was not aware of the elements that make up a balanced profile- nose, chin, and fat under the eye area. I saw that I needed a bit more work than I thought. Eventually I got a chin implant and fat grafting which balanced out the rest of my profile. The results were truly amazing, my nose became proportional and prettier, my chin more masculine, and cheek/under eye area younger-looking. The fat grafting procedure uses your own stem cells as well as fat to smooth out and plump an area that may look sunken in. It actually promotes collagen growth and can make you look years younger. I'm so satisfied with the results and the boost of self confidence it has given me. I would always turn my face to try to hide the bulbous tip and the relatively large size of my nose when taking photos, but no longer have to. If you are considering any cosmetic surgery, please see this man, he will change your life for the better. He's very funny, to the point, honest, and an expert in the industry. He also has caring and highly professional staff. They will greet you and treat you like a real person and not BS or bully you into getting anything done unless you want really want to. My recommendation for anyone who is considering cosmetic surgery (especially face work) is to visit his website and see what his has to offer. Make an appointment if you like what you see and get ready to change your life (I know it sounds like an infomercial, but I really mean it). This is my authentic opinion and wish that I had done the procedures much earlier. more

My experience with Dr. Ellenbogen was superb. Getting my nose job was one of the best decisions I have made personally and professionally. Being a guy, we normally don't undergo these procedures, but since I'm in the entertainment industry, looking good is a must, and that is why I chose Dr. Ellenbogen. Dr. Ellenbogen was very accommodating and made me feel very comfortable throughout the entire process from our initial consultations all the way through our post procedure follow ups. So for guys who want to look better, don’t be shy ….contact Dr. Ellenbogen!\r Charles Riley\r more

I went to Dr. Ellenbogen for a consultation about an eyelid surgery. Since I had a eyelid surgery in Europe about 10 years ago, I really needed resurgery. Through lots of good reviews about him and his education and experience, I called the office and made an appointment for a consultation.  I learned that he has written a number of books on eyelid surgery (both upper and lower). Getting rid of the bags above and below the eyes. The results were far better even than the first time I'd had it done. Thank you so much Dr. Ellenbogen. Don't hesitate to go and visit the most modern facility in Beverly Hills. Tina C. more

I've spent many years pondering plastic surgery and interviewing for the best surgeon (I had looked into probably about 15-20 surgeons across the country), level of experience, talent as a doctor and surgeon, the painstaking detail and artistry he puts into his work, congenial bedside manner, and rarely might you hear this in combination with those listed above... reasonable price point. Dr. Ellenbogen focuses all his energy on ensuring the highest quality of medical care to each of his patients. Now, I've looked at a lot of doctors, and very rarely have I seen all four of these credentials. You have to be a very talented doctor to be able to achieve all that he has accomplished. No wonder he trains other plastic surgeons. That's why Doctor Ellenbogen has become the ""Go to Guy"" for other doctors to refer patients who have had bad nose jobs. Dr. Ellenbogen is not afraid to tackle the toughest cases. To further demonstrate his focus on quality rather than quantity, I remember I spoke with another doctor and I asked him how long a rhinoplasty would take, and he said with his years of experience, he could knock it out in about an hour.  I was looking for a surgeon to take all the time necessary to ensure that my expectations are met. And that is what Dr. Ellenbogen did. We've spent many consultations discussing rhinoplasty so he knew how particular I was about it - in surgery, he spent painstaking hours on every detail on my nose alone and I am thrilled with the results. He didn't even charge me for the overtime in the operating room! more

Rarely does an experience exceed my expectations but a brow lift by Dr. Ellenbogen did. He was extremely generous with his time, answered all my questions. I must admit, and he gave me the confidence to proceed with a brow lift. One of my eyebrows was drooping. Although he told me he could not promise they would be even they are. I am 100% happy with the results. I met with a number of this plastic surgeons prior to Dr. Ellenbogen and it was not only his impeccable credentials but his concern that this be the right thing for me that helped me commit to the surgery. I am an esthetician and I very careful about the referrals I give to my clients. Dr. Ellenbogen is now the only plastic surgeon I refer. Janet D. more

I read the reviews for Dr. Richard Ellenbogen and was very surprised. I had gone to see him about the same time; Spring and early Summer of 2009. I had interviewed many, *many* doctors to perform my breast reduction surgery. My husband's business was struggling financially (as was every business owner) so cost was a deciding factor during my search. Here is what I used as my criteria: -Cost (out of my pocket) -Accepted my insurance -The doctor had to have ""before"" and ""after"" pictures of actual patients they performed the same surgery on, and available for me to view. - Doctor Ellenbogen showed me on the computer what I would look like. After interviewing about 5 doctors in person (I did phone interviews and also web research), I had selected Dr. Richard Ellenbogen to perform my surgery. Here is why: I could see immediately that he was meticulous. When I reviewed his portfolio with him, he could recount in fantastic detail each one of his surgeries. I remember remarking on one patient's results as ""incredible"", as it was obvious that she was suffering considerably from the size of her breasts in the ""before"" photo. He agreed on the medical points, but he immediately noted how many cc's he removed from each breast during the procedure and how many cc's he would like to have taken out, and how it would have effected the contouring of her breasts. I immediately knew I would be in that hands of a doctor who was passionate about the work. I was right and I'm passionate about the beautiful results. Thank you Doctor Ellenbogen! more

After seeing Dr Ellenbogen I am very excited and pleased about my breast augmentation. He is a very informed, smart and charming guy. Everything about him and his staff scream professionalism and politeness. If anyone is considering getting so work done or even curious about a procedure I suggest making am appointment with Dr Ellenbogen. I am promise you won’t regret it. Pros: Richard Ellenbogen more

I was hesitant to go see Dr Ellenbogen and his staff at Beverly Hills Body. I am male living in West Hollywood and I felt appearance is something that we take very serious, me being confident with myself and my body needed a little tune up. Going to see Dr Ellenbogen was a very pleasant experience. He was very informative and seemed to know exactly what I was interested in before I even said it. Without saying I was very pleased with the result of my procedure, I would be willing to tell you what I had done but I do have to keep my secrets. I would however recommend Dr Ellenbogen and his staff to anyone male or female thinking about getting work done I the Los Angeles area. Pros: Experience Cons: N/A more

I recently had a consultation with Debra and Dr Richard Ellenbogen at their Sunset location and while I opted against the procedure for personal reasons I was very impressed with the over visit. Their waiting room was very elegant and had about 5 other people waiting for consultations I was able to see Debra and the doctor after a brief wait. I was very impressed with the knowledge of the Debra and even more impressed with the team and attention that Dr Ellenbogen gave me. He was very professional and helpful throughout our 25 min consultation. Pros: Great location, staff and Doctor more

I recently had two procedures done by Dr Ellenbogen and while I wont tell you what they were (a women must have some secrets!) I will speak on his behalf. In my opinion he is simply the best doctor and a very pleasant person. I am very satisfied with my procedures and if I need anything else done I would definitely go back to Beverly Hills Body. Pros: Everything Cons: Nothing that I can think of more

I recently went to go see Dr Ellenbogen to get some facial work done and I am very please that I decided to go see him. Simply put he is the best surgeon in the greater Los Angeles area.

This issue has been taken care of. I'm still researching/consulting for just the right PS, though. more

I have some reservations about this practice. I've seen other plastic surgeons and have much to write about. Will share my experiences soon. more

I chose Dr.Ellenbogen for cosmetic surgery due to his years of experience, excellent reputation among physicians (some cosmetic surgeons list an internship with him as one of their qualifications), as well as complaint-free record with the state. He was able to remove the signs of aging from my face -- wrinkles, gauntness, sagging -- without leaving behind any telltale signs of surgery, such as tight, stretched skin, raised eyebrows or lack of expressiveness. He and his staff were extremely nice as well as accessible and cooperative. Pros: wonderful cosmetic surgeon more

Doctor Ellenbogen recently showed me his newly renovated surgery center in his Sunset set location. The only words that could come out of my mouth were “WOW!” His center is humongous….I think e told me 5000 sqft. The machinery he is using is simply incredible…… Dr Ellenbogen and his experience + 5000 sqft of State of Art surgery space= simply the best plastic surgeon in BEVERLY HILLS!! Pros: 500 sgft of sugerical space more

Dr Ellenbogen is one of the premiere Dr’s in the United States! I decided to call Dr Ellenbogen and Beverly Hills Body after seeing him Dr 90210 and I am glad that he took my consultation. Being from out of the Country I was worried about where I would stay and how I would get around. Dr Ellenbogen assured me that I would be taken care of once I got off the plane, he was right! He had a car pick me up at the airport and take me to a luxurious hotel that is soo beautiful. After the consultation I decided to get several facial procedures done. I am very impressed with the work that Dr Elenbogen did, I feel like my face is his masterpiece. He is truly an artist and one of the most gifted and talented men in his field! Pros: His concern for me Cons: Distance from my Country! more

Firstly, I didn't threaten patients, Edgarda. I was being threatened with lawsuits myself and I simply asked that everyone post photos of their negative results so that they would speak for themselves. I also did not receive considerable amounts of money every month, it was $1,400. for the entire year and if you do not remember, I prorated the amount, gave him a refund and took him off my recommended surgeons' listings. I am pro-patient. I also do NOT have any sponsoring doctors on my website whatsoever. I will never do that again. more

Dr. Dadvand and his staff are truely wonderful. I went in for a consultation, wanting a natural look to my breasts. Dr. Dadvand is so professional and talented and he also took the time to answer all of my questions. Now that I've had my surgery completed, I look AMAZING! So natural! I would HIGHLY recommend Beverly Hills Body to ANYONE considering cosmetic surgery! I could not be happier! Pros: Parking Service, Beautiful Facility, just awesome all the way around! more
