They have an excellent, upbeat, happy atmosphere which immediately puts you at ease. Everyone is very knowledgeable, kind and thorough. Such a beautiful clean environment, I honestly could not fault 1 thing about my experience! Thank you all!!!
Decided on 485 cc's under the muscle. I just had my surgery yesterday and so far so good! - I'm 30 years old and I have two kids, I've wanted implants for a long time, after I breastfed my youngest who is now 5 years old, I became very deflated and hated my chest, I was a 36D. I met my surgeon Dr. Mitzuguchi about a month ago and had a virtual consultation where we decided I'd need a lift and I showed him my wish pictures, at my pre op appointment I was able to go in and try on different sizes of implants and we decided on 485 cc's under the muscle, I just had my surgery yesterday and so far so good! I'm very happy with my results so far, and dr. Mitzuguchi and his staff are amazing, very pleasant to work with and very tentative to their patients needs. I'm pretty sore today but it's nothing too bad, I'm on muscle relaxers and pain killers, and I have my first post op visit on Monday!!!
Dr mizuguchi and his team are hands down the best! He is amazing! I would not go to anyone else, I trust him 100%. I drive over 2 hrs to see him. His office staff are amazing as well. They are very knowledgeable. If you call the office it does not matter who you talk to they all know what is going on and are able to help you and answer any question you have. They are professional, thorough, and caring. The office is beautiful as well. Dr mizuguchi never disappoints !
I cannot say enough about my incredible experience with Dr. Nana Mizuguchi! This is the second time he’s performed a breast augmentation for me, the first one was 16 years ago. I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. On top of that, I recently underwent a drainless tummy tuck with Dr. Mizuguchi, and the outcome has been absolutely life-changing.After struggling with very visible scars and a lump on my stomach from previous surgeries, I wasn’t sure what to expect. However, Dr. Mizuguchi gave me a beautifully flat and toned stomach. I never imagined he would be able to fix the lump I had from a colostomy bag, but he did. I never thought I’d feel this confident in my own skin again! The fact that the tummy tuck was drainless made the recovery process much easier and more comfortable than I ever anticipated. I was only off work for a week. As for my breast augmentation, this is the second time Dr. Mizuguchi has worked his magic, and once again, he delivered perfect results. He understood exactly what I was looking for and helped me achieve a look that’s both natural and balanced. His expertise, combined with his personalized approach, made me feel completely at ease throughout both of these surgeries.Dr. Mizuguchi’s attention to detail, compassionate care, and commitment to achieving the best results are truly exceptional. I am so grateful for the time he took to listen to my concerns and customize each procedure to fit my goals. His entire team is also fantastic—supportive, professional, and kind.I highly recommend Dr. Mizuguchi to anyone considering cosmetic surgery as well as aesthetic procedures. I decided to get lip injections during a follow up visit and they are amazing also
