Svehlak, Steven, Md - Sunset Cosmetic Surgery

After years of researching plastic surgeons and various methods; Worrying about selecting the right doctor; Feeling bad and embarrassed about my ears, I'm now happy to pass on my first-hand experience to anyone who has found their way to this site.\r Do yourself a favor, look no further than Dr. Steven Svehlak! Set up a consultation appointment now for yourself or your child and then book a date for the best gift you will ever give yourself or someone you love.\r At 37 years old, all I can say is, ""Better late than never"" but I also know just how difficult it was to try and find the best plastic surgeon. My journey took time, hopefully you can read my recommendation and save yourself any additional and unnecessary agony. I'm also very cautious about any type of operation and live by the motto: ""Better safe than sorry"" for as asymmetrical and prominent that my ears were, in the wrong surgeon's hands, they could be much worse.\r After finally narrowing down the best plastic surgeons in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills, I decided on Dr. Svehlak. I can't be any more thankful and happy that I did! Everyone at Sunset Cosmetic Surgery was really lovely. I never felt any pressure or awkwardness and the entire staff is empathetic and real with you. \r Now I'm a new man! Dr. Svehlak, I am thankful, grateful, and humbled by your ability and precision. You are amazing and you are truly the combination of skilled surgeon and exacting artist.\r If I had it to do all over again, I'd do it just the same, only sooner! more

doctor yamini did a beautiful job for my lips with fillers and he was very friendly, but a bit too pricey. more

I can not thank Dr. Yamini enough for what he did for me! He corrected an awful work of another doctor on one of my breasts. He exceeded my expectations and beyond. My breast looks and feels amazing. He not just attentive, but very detail oriented and a perfectionist. I only wish I found him earlier!!! The staff is also amazing...will definitely recommend Daniel Yamini and his office to all. more

Let me tell you why Dr. Yamini is so amazing in my opinion. It goes way beyond the technical expertise. His bedside manner, honesty and caring nature is what sold me. He did an amazing job on me. I did not have a lot to work with to begin with. He corrected defects and made my butt look like I am 20 again. I want more work done as I am 41 and seeing the signs of it. He will be the doctor that I do everything with. I really like him and his office staff. more

I was extremely hesitant to get my lips done. I just had a few lines and my lips were shrinking. It took several trips but I finally did it and I’m so happy. Dr Yamini made me feel very comfortable and just injected half a syringe of Juviderm and he did it so naturally I don’t look like a duck! None of my friends could tell they were injected. They look perfect now and I’m definitely going back to keep them like this. more

In LA where everyone cares about looking young, Dr. Svehlak is hands down the best at what he does!!! I send everyone there from EVERYWHERE!!!! more

I went to SEVERAL docs in the Beverly Hills area. I wanted to do My own Extreme Makeover and do nose, chin, upper eyes and Mommy Makeover.\r \r I chose Yamini for many reasons--\r \r 1) I didn't get dizzy when he was talking about the proceedures. With some other docs, I actually got dizzy and uncomfortable. Just didn't feel right.\r \r 2) I did a LOT of research on all the procedures and knew the difference between closed and open rhino, the different types of breast lifts, etc. and I found Dr. Yamini's methods to be the least invasive and made sense for the best result. He did closed rhino on Me when another docs wanted to do open. Open is another scar (albeit small) but more invasive and longer recovery.\r \r 3) He knew how to strike a balane between what I thought I wanted, what was physically possible with My genetics and what he thought would look the best and gave Me the options with the pros and cons.\r \r 4) You don't just want a good doctor who is skilled technially, you want an artist you can visualize how to make you look better. He likes natural results. We've all been scared by those ladies in the grocery stores that have had TOO MUCH done and look freakish He leans towards what will compliment the face and not start to look ""done.""\r \r I had My nose, upper eyelids, face grafting under My eyes and a chin implant done first and I love it. Friends couldn't tell because all My features were each changed slightly where the result is just still Me looking like Me, just a LOT better. I love My nose and a side benefit is we lifted the tip and it made My top lip curl up a little bit so I look like I have some juvaderm in there, but I don't. Its cute and suits Me.\r \r Not quite a week ago I had breast lift and silicone implants and lipo of hips and flanks. I've ALWAYS had stubborn fat there and now it's GONE and I love it. Breasts look great and I feel really good for 5 days after. I've even been walking to the corner store each night for My favorite protein bar (OH, NO! HE'S GOING TO READ THIS AND SPANK ME! :)\r \r IMPORTANT THING TO KNOW if you are getting BREAST LIFT W/IMPLANTS!!!! (I have done lots of research. It's My body and I only get one!)\r \r There's over and under muscle and you can read about that (google it) and most do under muscle, but what many will do for a lift is what is called an anchor lift or Full Pattern Mastopexy which is a LOT OF SCARS. It's a scar around the aerola, one down the center from the aerola to the crease and then a scar in the cease. LOTS.\r \r If you have a LOT of sagging, you might need that type. BUT if you aren't in that category, Yamini can do a lift with just a ""doughnut"" incision where he just takes a little excess skin around the aerola to cinch it up. Google ""Benelli lift"" vs. ""Full Pattern Mastopexy"" and you will see. \r \r Other docs wanted to give Me the Full Pattern Mastopexy which would have been SO MANY MORE SCARS. I would have Frankenstien Boobies. As it is, I just have incisions around the aerola and the aerola is smaller now. LOVE THAT!\r \r I do recovery at Shanteque Recovery spa and all the nurses there said his breasts jobs always turn out very natural-looking.\r \r I am going to do a Tummy Tuck in about a month or so with him again.\r \r So if you are shopping for docs, definitely have a consult with Dr. Yamini and get EDUCATED. He will probably be the one who will be the least invasive of the procedures you are choosing between and you will still get the results you are looking for. That's what I found.\r \r Pamela K. Pros: He's VERY calm, keen attention to detail more

I had a mommy makeover with Dr. Yamini at Sunset and am very happy with my results. I had a tummy tuck and a breast implants. I didn't get a traditional breast lift because he said for my case that the implants themselves would give me a bit of a lift, and they did. I had dual plane which is a technique that is partially under and partially over the muscle. I hadn't heard of it before so I'm not sure if it is new or they just call it something else. I'm a beautiful medium C cup now (was a b, then dropped to an A after I had my son). My tummy tuck is amazing too. I managed to lose all of my pregnancy weight in 6-7 months after having my son, but I was left with a bit of loose skin. Dr. Yamini tightened it right up with a mini-tummy tuck and I would be ok with wearing a bikini now! I am very pleased with what was promised and what I got as far as results. Pros: great doctor, staff and office Cons: i can't think of any--oh, maybe just putting out the $$$! ha. (worth it though) more
