“Dr. Lisa Hwang possesses a combination of high professionalism and approachability. From the first meeting onward, she will make herself available and answer any questions no matter how trivial. She will take the time to explain things from a scientific/biological perspective, but she is a true artist as well. She always strives for perfection and will take the focus and time to get there."

“My experience was positive from the very beginning when meeting with Dr. Hwang’s gracious and helpful staff. They made me feel at ease, supported, and answered all my questions. Dr. Hwang was no different. I had contemplated abdominoplasty for several years and Dr. Hwang was incredibly open in explaining the procedure, some of her preferred tactics (she hands down does the best belly buttons), and what to truly expect post surgery. I also learned she’s an accomplished musician and this artistry translates into her work. I’m almost five weeks post op and I couldn’t be happier with my results. Even amidst the current pandemic, Lisa has followed up with me at home and continued to encourage me through my recovery. I’m so glad to have finally had this procedure and that I chose Dr. Hwang as my surgeon.”

“I am extremely happy I chose Dr. Lisa Hwang to be my plastic surgeon! She is personable, professional, and caring. She spent so much time guiding me through surgery, and I felt very comfortable with her.
During my consultation, she was very genuine in understanding exactly what bothered me as well as my specific goals. I went in, complaining about eye bags and deep facial wrinkles, and I left with a surgical plan - facelift, eyelid lift, and fat grafting. I completely trusted that she would help me achieve the results I wished for. My surgery was performed under sedation, so I was aware of what was going on. She is extremely detail-oriented and kept me comfortable throughout the entire case, constantly checking on me. Facelift and eyelid surgery can be scary. Dr. Hwang's comprehensive approach, along with her technical expertise and warm bedside manner, gave me supreme confidence.
I am absolutely thrilled with my results!! I still look like myself, but 20 years younger! If you are looking for an aesthetic plastic surgeon in the Bay Area, I highly recommend Dr. Lisa Hwang--she is the BEST!!"

“Dr. Hwang is absolutely amazing! She did an outstanding job on my breast augmentation/revision. I was not an easy case. I had a lot of scarring and capsular contracture. The end result truly speaks to her talent as a surgeon. I could not be happier!”
Patient review on Yelp
“I had breast augmentation back in 2016. I was happy at first then after the 2nd year they dropped really low and got super heavy. At this point they looked really big for my body frame. I was very unhappy with the way they looked. I always covered myself up because I was embarrassed. I decided it was time to remove the implants.
I had a consultation with Dr. Hwang, and I was pretty nervous. I told her what my concerns were and how unhappy I was with my large size. She listened to everything I had to say and spent a lot of time talking to me. She gave me different options with what she could do for me. I was very pleased with the final decision. I had surgery Jan. 2, 2020, and that was the best decision I ever made. I’m 2 months postop and I’m so happy with my results. I like that I could always communicate anytime I have questions or concerns. She’s amazing and I’m grateful she did my surgery. Dr. Hwang cares a lot about her patients and you could see how much she loves what she does. I’m very HAPPY."

"I highly recommend Dr. Hwang. She provided me with the exact results I tried to accomplish at other medical spas and plastic surgery offices for a long time. Switching to Dr. Hwang for injections (Filler/Botox) was the best decision ever. Lisa truly has a mix of talent with passion and it shows in her work! Not only did I have better and more effective results, I'm extremely pleased with my overall experience. She always takes the time to explain things very clear in consultations, answers any questions and listens to you. Not everyone can say they entered or left a plastic surgeon's office feeling confident, and excited. I especially liked how she made me immediately feel comfortable when I walked in her office (which by the way, is extremely beautiful and clean).
She is professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and in my opinion, very artistically talented. (She corrected a lip augmentation that I was not happy with. My bottom lip has always been asymmetrical and for the first time after she injected filler I can see the improvement--I now have a beautiful top and bottom lip with a complimentary shape!
I guarantee everyone else will benefit from seeing Dr. Hwang in many ways and have a wow experience! I sure did! Thank you to Dr. Hwang for all your great expertise."

"I strongly recommend Dr. Lisa Hwang! She is one of top plastic surgeons in Cupertino and the Bay Area. My extra upper eyelid skin bothered me for years. It restricted my vision badly resulting in doing things inefficiently. In searching for my plastic surgeon, I found her to be extremely kind, knowledgeable, and informative. Eyelid lift was the first surgery I've ever had. I was wide awake and felt so comfortable throughout the procedure. After surgery, I found my vision being improved significantly. Now two months after surgery, I am extremely satisfied and happy with my natural results. It is so amazing that incisions have disappeared, that I look much younger, and that I can see much better. She has really made my dream come true and enhanced the quality of my life! She is my hero! I strongly recommend Dr. Hwang, and I'm pretty confident that she can make your dreams come true too!"

"This review is long overdue for Dr. Lisa Hwang, the artist :) I had a very flabby stomach after my two kids and will bloat and look huge when I just had a glass of water. That used to frustrate me. When I considered tummy tuck, my only two criteria were that flabby skin should be gone and surgery to happen sooner when I had the extra help. I found Dr. Hwang through Yelp and read reviews and checked other sources, and called her. Very glad that I picked her. Her consultation is very informative. She is so considerate, caring, accommodated the schedule that worked for me. I am so thankful for that.
Not only she made my stomach smooth, but she also gave it a shape that I could never imagine. It looked so much better than what I used to have before my kids. The details in the surgery show her skill, and her care and follow-ups post-surgery were fantastic. She was always available to answer any questions I had."

"From start to finish, Dr. Hwang was professional, knowledgable, and made me feel at ease. She worked with me to find the best option to meet my needs and answered all of my many questions with grace and care. I am now 6 weeks post-procedure and I am extremely pleased with my results. I highly recommend Dr. Hwang if you are in search of a talented surgeon who perfectly blends art with medicine and produces wonderful results!"
Patient review on Yelp
“My experience with Dr. Hwang and her staff was outstanding. First of all, when I had my consultation, Dr. Hwang made me feel really comfortable with my decision to have a procedure. She answered all my questions thoroughly. After my consult, I felt I had found the right doctor. I was very confident that the results would be exactly what I was looking for. After surgery, Dr. Hwang was very caring and explained what the next few weeks were going to look like as far as my recovery. She was very accessible and that made me feel at ease.
A month after my surgery the pandemic hit. Everything was shut down. I was concerned that I would not be able to consult with the doctor during my recovery. That was completely opposite of what happened. Dr. Hwang would check up on me and if I had any questions, she could always be reached via email or text and would respond within hours. That really eased my nerves. I am now four months into my recovery and could not be happier. I look younger than when I went in. I would highly recommend Dr. Hwang for any Plastic surgery procedure you might consider. Her professionalism and attention to detail was far above what I expected. A very satisfied customer."

“Lisa was GREAT! Before my procedure all the details of what to expect and what would take place were explained to me so thoroughly I felt as if I could do it myself…Might have actually saved some money that way (kidding) but very affordable as well especially compared to some of the other prices I’ve seen. The day of my procedure Lisa and her team took all the steps necessary to make me feel very comfortable. To keep it short just a very professional and seamless experience. Oh and absolutely great results as well! Thank you Lisa!”
Patient review on Yelp
"I recently worked with Dr. Hwang regarding buccal fat removal for various reasons. It's not the most common type of procedure that a lot of people have done, so I was excited when I came across her website which outlined it as one of the many procedures she performs. After we initially connected, I shared my goals and needs, and Dr. Hwang moved fast and professionally which I really appreciated. She was able to see me within a week for a consult and I was able to get a surgery date scheduled soon after. Her professionalism and knowledge shined during our consult and additional convos, and her bedside manner before, during, and after surgery was exceptionally the same. It's important to me to connect well with any type of person I work with (in any manner) on a personal level, and would definitely recommend Dr. Hwang as she's both personable and an amazing surgeon!"

“Dr. Hwang is a wonderful and talented doctor. So glad I found her! I had some fillers injected at a different office and was unhappy with the results. I came to her to get them dissolved and she did such a good job! I am very happy with the result. She's attentive, will listen to your needs, and will give you her honest opinions and feedback and help you understand what to expect in terms of the outcome. Her honesty speaks volumes to her character and integrity. It shows that she cares about her patients and their satisfaction. She also went the extra mile to ensure the result was what I wanted, which most other offices I have been to usually would not do. I highly highly recommend her!"

“Dr. Hwang did an amazing job on my cheek and lip fillers!!! I wanted a refresher, she took the time out to understand the results I wanted and from there she knew exactly what to do. I love my results and I'm so happy I found her!"
Patient review on Yelp
Dr. Lisa Hwang is the best! It's only been 2 weeks since she did my arm & armpit liposuction and I'm already obsessed with the result. Before I met her, I was really nervous to get arm lipo because it is a pretty rare procedure to get (especially as a stand alone procedure and on someone who is already pretty thin). However, Dr. Hwang told me exactly what she was going to do and what I should expect the results to look like. Unlike some of the other doctors I talked to, I felt like I could really talk to her about my arm insecurities and she understood--she didn't just say "eh not worth it." Now that I've had the procedure I must say Dr. Hwang killed it! My arms look even BETTER than I had hoped. She is a rockstar who is passionate and knowledgeable about her work. She always answers my late night & weekend texts, reaches out to me to make sure I'm okay, and makes me feel like a valued patient (not just a number). I couldn't recommend her enough!"

"Amazing doctor and service! Dr. Lisa Hwang took time to explain all procedures in detail and answered all my questions from our consultation visit to post-op. I felt so confident under her care that I was not once nervous. I am so satisfied with the result that I will be returning for other services."

Dr. Lisa was amazing from the very beginning! I inquired about under eye fillers and I was surprised to receive a response so quickly. During the virtual consultation, she was very thorough in explaining the procedure, risks, and recovery. The procedure itself was quick and I saw results right away. Dr. Lisa is professional, personable, and knowledgeable...thank you again for my under eye fillers!

"If I could give more than 5 stars I would, Dr. Hwang was outstanding. She made me feel comfortable in the choice I was making, answered all my questions, followed up with me before surgery to answer any last questions. After surgery she explained what to expect for recovery and called to check in on me that night, honestly best experience I could've encountered. It's only been about a week and a half since my procedure and I'm loving the results already, glad I had Dr. Hwang as my surgeon!

"I saw Dr. Lisa last week and she is so awesome! She really took the time to listen to what I wanted and most importantly made me look natural. I went in for botox and fillers and I couldn't be happier! I cannot trust anyone else with my face than her. I did a lot of research before seeing her and I can honestly say she is the best!"
Patient review on Yelp
"I am incredibly happy with the service and results I received from Dr. Lisa Hwang. I had an upper and lower lid surgery (Blepharoplasty) as well as a scar revision/new implants.
Several years ago, I had my implants removed from a different surgeon as they were rather large for my stature. When removing the implants, they left a very unfavorable scar as well as a lack of fullness - they seemed a bit concave, especially the top of my breasts. I hated how they looked, especially in a swim suit. Dr. Hwang not only fixed my scars, she also spent a great deal of time talking to me about fat transfer vs implants. My original thought was to have a fat transfer rather than another implant, however, after spending a great deal of time with me, and discussing the pros and cons of fat transfer vs implants, I decided to move forward with the implants. She was able to show me what the result would look like using 3D imagery which helped me decide the size. She is an excellent listener and perfectionist! She delivered exactly what I wanted, and I couldn't be happier!
Eye surgery - needless to say, I was extremely apprehensive to have the surgery but knew it was time. I was very thorough in my expectation in explaining that I was after a slight tweak/natural look, by removing the fat pads under my eyes and the extra skin in my folds. The recovery is a lot longer than anticipated however, each day I can see the bruising and swelling improving. Again, she is a perfectionist. I've already referred her patients who thought my eyes looked fantastic and I'm not at 100% I'd use her over and over again!"
Patient review on Yelp
"There comes a time in a woman's life when she realizes she needs a little extra help in combating the signs of aging. Since I was officially entering my mid 40s, I figured it was time to seek help for those pesky facial lines that have slowly crept in over the years.
I knew I didn't want to just go anywhere. I needed/wanted a doctor that was trained to do these procedures so my results came out natural. I did a lot of research and read many websites. I ended up at Dr. Lisa's because she came off as very authentic and passionate about her practice.
I reached out to her via online and she asked me for some pictures for when we did our virtual consultation. The free consultation went over my concerns, my wants, and what was the best way to achieve them. That's when I went ahead and booked my appt.
Dr. Lisa was great! Since I am totally green when it came to botox, she gave me some great information and advice to getting the optimal results. I couldn't believe how amazing my results came out after a few weeks!!! Now I'm wondering why I waited so long to give this a try.
If you're on the fence about this, don't be! It's safe and there's no shame in getting that extra bit of work.Give her an email or a call, you'll be happy with the results."

"I had breast augmentation done by Dr. Hwang. It's only been 4 weeks since my procedure and I couldn't be happier with my results! My breasts look so, so natural and in proportion to my body. My main goal was to have cleavage and fill out my bathing suits and that has definitely been delivered!! As for my scars, wow Dr. Hwang is an artist!! I was so nervous going in for my first consultation but I was immediately put at ease by Dr. Hwang. She answered all my questions and concerns and I knew she was the perfect Surgeon for me. The whole procedure from consultation to recovery has been a breeze. Dr. Hwang is also my go to for Botox. Like I said before she's an artist! My only regret is not finding her sooner. :)"

"Dr. Hwang is an amazing doctor! Highly recommend!
I recently contacted Dr. Hwang for buccal fat removal to slim down my cheeks. I have been thinking about this procedure for a long time and was very ready to move forward. Dr. Hwang saw that and was able to fit me in ASAP which I thought was amazing and exactly what I wanted. I contacted several other doctors but found that there was a disconnect since I was never able to speak to the actual doctor - only the receptionists. Even when I had specific surgical questions, I was only ever connected to the receptionists.
Dr. Hwang connected to me directly and answered any of my concerns and texts within minutes! I found that important, since she was the one operating. She was very knowledgeable and also recommended other procedures that could aid in slimming down my face, just in case I didn't want to go the surgical route. The surgery went smoothly and I'm now just waiting for the swelling to go down to see the results! Thank you again Dr. Hwang!"
