"Dr. Kelishadi is amazing!!! He made me feel so comfortable! I had Breast Augmentation May 26th. I'm three months out and loving my results! I was very self conscious about my chest. My breasts shrunk due to breast feeding. I didn't even want to change in front of my husband. (he loved them no matter what lol) and now I am feeling so great about it! He said he's even noticed a boost in my confidence level. I love it! i feel good..i feel sexy. I never thought I would actually go through with getting this done, but Dr. Kelishadi and his staff helped me with every step of the way. He was very caring and checked up on me after surgery. His staff was very nice as well. All so helpful! I highly recommend him!"
"I recently had a breast revision/augmentation with a lift by Dr Kelishadi and I couldn’t have asked for a better surgeon! He is known as the King of Cleavage and definitely lives up to the name. His staff is friendly, professional, and prompt to answer calls and respond to emails. It was also super nice and convenient having Dr Sherry as part of the team helping with all the medications ordered. On my pre op visit, I was given a bag with all the medications I would need for my surgery and recovery. Dr Sherry would text and make sure I didn’t have any questions which was so appreciated. After my surgery, Dr Kelishadi would call and check in to make sure I was doing well. If I had a questions or concerns, Dr Kelishadi would promptly call and answer all the questions I had. He is genuinely a great person and an amazing Surgeon that I would highly recommend."
"Oh , where do I begin? I’ll try to make this short and sweet ... prior to moving from the East Coast to Orange County , I was on a search for the BEST board certified plastic surgeon that specializes in breast revisions and anything breast related , and with much research (because that’s what I do) Do your research ladies , don’t settle because someone is "cheap" or you found a Groupon for the love of God , avoid that!! This is your body , why the heck would you settle ? When I found Dr. Kelashadi , I inquired immediately! I loved his presence on social media , the reviews, and especially his work ! I set up an appointment via Zoom to get more information and truly just to meet him . I’m an excellent judge of character and found him and his staff absolutely amazing . He is caring, kind, smart, driven, professional and a perfectionist . He listened to my concerns, and made me feel safe . Later that month , I went in for my consultation in person . I was greeted by the most amazing staff! Kind, happy, and comforting. I filled out all of my health questionnaires , got into my robe and then my first set of pics were taken . Not once did I feel uncomfortable, not once . Then Dr. Kelashadi came in to assess me and we made the decision together based off of my desired outcome . He took into consideration my shape (I’m small and have an athletic build ) He knew not to just stuff my breasts like most surgeons do.On the day of the surgery, I wasn’t nervous at all, if anything I was excited like a kid on Christmas morning! Everyone in the surgery center was beyond amazing . Dr. Kelashadi marked me and discussed with me one more time to assure me that we’re on the same page and my goodness , that made me feel even safer! He wound up doing a full reconstruction (which we discussed may happen at the first visit) since I had my previous breast implants in for 10 years and my implants were incapsulated . I woke up from my surgery and was so happy as expected . He understood the assignment !! Healing took a little over a week and I was super compliant (that’s important ladies) Each follow up after was a joy as well ! He is a perfectionist and I HIGHLY recommend him , don’t look any further , I already did the work for you! His amazing wife , Dr. Sherry is pretty incredible as well and helps women with their hormone balance and overall well being! Mind, body, and soul I later decided to check out their med spa and had an incredible experience with Elania , she too answered all of my questions and was very gentle . Thank you for all you do ! Oh and let me not forget to mention , he is also the king of waistlines and labioplasties, and more ! I’ll be seeing you again soon ! Thank you again ! Love you ALL"
"I am nearly 6 months post op and I can truthfully say I am 100% happy with my results. I had previously had a traumatic experience with a revision where I had more complications coming out of the revision than I did prior... I had lumps of leftover scar tissue the previous surgeon disregarded, uneven keloid scars, and to top it all off, the surgeon had dropped something on my stomach during surgery that left a nasty burn mark. I was unhappy with the results and as time went on, the complications just became more and more visible. I was self conscious and honestly furious that I essentially paid to feel self conscious. Jaded, it took me a while to muster up the courage to find a surgeon that I could trust to fix my breasts. I found Dr. Kelishadi after months and months of research, this time specifically looking for someone who had a history of success in complicated breast revisions as opposed to just seeing before and afters from "virgin breasts." Dr K and his wonderful staff are all consummate professionals. He talked through what he believed was best for me after I gave my concerns, told me alternative hypotheticals since there was no certainty without actually opening me up, and provided me examples of previous patients that had similar complications. My surgery was indeed complicated and took about 4 hours. I immediately knew from my recovery process that Dr K did way more work than my previous revision I mean it was night and day. I felt a little like an alien the first few weeks, but Dr K gave me so much confidence in trusting the process. Slowly but surely, my implants have settled. He took out all my scar tissue, revised my scars (even the nasty burn I had on my stomach from my previous surgeon), and placed an internal bra to help give me more support while I heal. I could not be happier with my results and I am so incredibly thankful that I found Dr Kelishadi. It’s kind of daunting to write out my journey with implants, but I know I can’t be the only one that had crazy complications from implants. If you have "virgin breasts" or complications from your current implants, give Dr Kelishadi a call. I am positive you will have a wonderful experience as I did.Thank you Dr Kelishadi and staff"
"My clients had referred me to Dr. Kelishadi a few years back. I finally had some down time get update myself. A mother of 2 and I’ve always been focusing on my kids as my number 1 priority. And now that my youngest is 7 it was time to take care of myself. I went in for a consultation and it was quick. Dr Kelishadi was very honest which I loved. He asked for photos of how I wanted my breast to look. I showed him an old photo of myself when I got it done in 2006. And mentioned to him what I didn’t want to happened. I let him do what he think is best because this is his field he knows what’s best. Since I was going down for my breast revision and lift I also decided to do a full tummy tuck. It’s been 2 months and of course I followed what Dr said. Paying a lot for this service and I am not trying to down under again. I am so happy with my result and definitely recommend every mom out there to invest in yourself after kids. I have nothing to hide because everyone thinks already that I didn’t need to do it. But it was for myself. Highly recommend him and his staff is super sweet. I also forgot to mention how I highly recommend my overnight stay at Privé. I booked for one night, but ended up staying two nights just because I love how peaceful it was. The two nurses I had were amazing."
"1 year post op my breast reconstruction with Dr. Kelishadi (implant exchange + redo old breast lift) and just wanted to say im really satisfied with the result and how much SSK surgery cares about you even months after your surgery. Everything healed great, no complications. Will definitely go with Dr. Kelishadi again after having kids and needing another lift :) Thank you!"
"I am 56 yrs old and needless to say my breasts looked my age. I had 3 other very bad surgeries through the years and would have left them as they were. However, I am also a runner and couldn’t stand having such massive breasts (never what I wanted!) I recognized I asked ALOT of Dr. Kelishadi. I wanted them small, perky, and ok... like they did when I was 16. (don’t judge : ) ). He was honest, managed my hopes and expectations warmly, and made me feel heard. After the surgery, he was honest and very sweet about how hard he had worked to meet my expectations/hopes. I have to tell you... HE DID! I never take the time to write these reviews, but this one is SO DESERVED! Yes, his staff was amazing and helped every step of the way, but when the rubber meets the road, we want our surgeries to be worth the pain and money. So if you are "on the fence" about who to choose or wonder if he is the right surgeon for you... GET OFF the fence! He will underpromise but over-deliver without question! I am super happy with my breasts. Thank you Dr. Kelishadi for hearing how important it was to me and understanding that I only have one body to live in. THX for making this one feel so much more like me!!!"
"SSK is such a great practice. They are small enough to actually remember your name, and big enough to have a treatment for anything you could possibly want. When it comes to my body, I’m pretty particular with who I get treatments from. I had gotten saline implants sixteen years and three babies ago and wanted my boobs back where they belong. I didn’t take choosing a surgeon lightly. I had three consultations from friend referrals and chose Dr. Kelishadi for a few reasons. 1- his reputation and experience with breast work. 2- his honesty about outcome and expectations. 3- he never tries to upsell or encourage other areas to change. If anything, he encouraged me to be confident with my body as it is. From booking the surgery to even now, they make you feel cared for and listened to. Dr. Sean text me after surgery and for the next couple days to see how I was feeling and answer any questions. The office called as well to make sure I was being taken care of. It’s such a one stop shop I didn’t even have to go to the pharmacy to pickup all my meds and vitamins because Dr Sherry is a pharmacist. They really care about their patients and it shows. I had a lift and implant upgrade. I wanted bigger, but not tacky, sized boobs. Dr. Sean heard my desires and picked the perfect size to fit my body. He really is a master of his craft and I feel confident in every member of the staff being amazing at what they do. When I got Botox , PA Aida numbed me so I felt nothing, and really took her time to place the product perfectly. You’ll be in amazing hands and get award winning results."
"Dr. Kelishadi and his wonderful team are beyond words- seriously incredible! I scheduled a consult with him, went and immediately knew he was the one for me. Valerie at the front desk loves her job, and you can tell just by speaking with her over the phone. When I went in for my consult, I was greeted warmly by Dr. Kelishadi, Sherry, Aida and every other member of his team. They all stopped to say "Hello" and "Welcome!" After spending an hour-long consult with Dr. Kelishadi I felt validated, heard, and confident. I went ahead and booked the surgery at the end of my consult and never looked back. I did not schedule a consultation with an other surgeons because I knew he would get it right! Back story: I was unsatisfied with my previous lift and implants. My previous surgeon had even completed a revision, yet still didn’t get it right. Turns out I had the wrong profile implants and the wrong type of lift from the beginning. Insert Dr. Kelishadi and I am over the moon with my results!He completed a revision with a lift (lollipop) and placed Ultra High Profile implants to give me the exact look I wanted. Seriously, look no further. He is the one for you!"
"Dr. Kelishadi and his team are absolutely amazing.I was searching for a new plastic surgeon and thankfully I found an awesome Dr.From my first phone call Valerie was fantastic. She made me feel very comfortable.I booked my consultation and after meeting Dr.Kelishadi , I knew he was the man for the job. 8/9/22 I had my implants replaced and a lift . I am now 3 weeks post op breasts are looking amazing.Everyone at SSK from the front office to the back office and the surgery site have been pleasant and very professional.Definitely do recommend Dr. Kelishadi....Thank you."
"Haven’t felt this confident and happy with my body since my late 20s - I am only 5 weeks post-op from a mommy makeover (breast implant revision and lift, tummy tuck, and lipo with BBL). I haven’t felt this confident and happy with my body since my late 20’s, and it’s only been 5 weeks! Dr. Kelishadi listened and took his time to explain what he was doing and set realistic expectations for results- (which he completely surpassed imo). I had been following his work for a while, and knew how gifted he was, but now I know first hand and can’t say enough great things about him and his staff. Thank you, Dr. K. for giving me my confidence back- and my 25-year-old booty lol."
"I never write reviews because its very hard to impress me, but this time i had to. I had breast lift + implant exchange with Dr. Kelishadi less than 3 weeks ago and I can already tell he has done an excellent job, i absolutely love my results. However I want to dedicate this review mostly to the actual clinic and stuff, because I am very impressed, especially when comparing to other plastic surgeon practices. First of all, Dr. Kelishadi is very welcoming and takes his time (exactly 1 hour) during the consultation to explain everything and answer all the questions to the last detail. I could immediately tell he knows what is he doing and when I left his clinic I canceled all my other consultations I had scheduled because I knew I will choose Dr. Kelishadi 100%. All the other stuff is also very friendly, from the receptionist Valerie to all the nurses and also his wife, who is a pharmacist there and will be explaining all the medication. NOW - the most important thing that made a difference for me was the fact that they will provide you with a huge bag full of necessary items, as well as all the medication you will need, WITHOUT ANY ADDITIONAL CHARGES!!! Yes, i know its most likely included in the total price I paid for the surgery, but trust me it feels nice when you know that you dont need to worry about other expenses and you are just ready to go. I am saying this because I actually just booked rhinoplasty with a different doctor, paying 22k and they still made me pay extra for the medication and tried to sell me a scar gel for additional 65$, which Dr. Kelishadi also already includes in his package. The rhinoplasty practice is also making me do 2 covid pcr tests which needs to be done at their dedicated lab ($150each). I didnt have to deal with any of this at SSK surgery, and I just want to say that this is not about the money but about the overall experience and small details like this that make you feel like they actually value you and they are not just trying to sell you things. Dr. Kelishadi and his stuff made me feel safe and I can tell they really value their patients. I live almost 2 hours away from Newport Beach but it was definitely worth the drive and I will definitely choose Dr. Kelishadi again for more procedures if I need to. Also, the price is direct equivalent of his work (and I would even say he could charge more) so dont be cheap because then you will have to go redo your surgery anyway and pay more for reconstruction."
"Breast augmentation revision, lift & lower eyelid lift with fat transfer - Such an amazing experience with Dr K and everyone at SSK plastic surgery from the consultation to the surgery to even the post op care - top notch - I had a breast augmentation revision , lift & lower eye lid lift with fat transfer - I work as a recovery room nurse - so I pay attention to details the information provided before surgery had all my questions answered and I knew what to expect in my recovery process. Dr K was kind enough to check in on me the night of surgery to see how I was feeling ! The kindness , the care - this has been a wonderful experience- I am one week post op and I can’t wait to be fully healed !Anyone considering any cosmetic procedure- I highly recommend ssk !!"
"Dr. K is a life saver! From the minute I called his office for a consultation I felt comfortable. His staff is so warm and welcoming! I called in for a breast revision since Dr. Casper left me completely bottomed out with awful scarring. The consultation was great. Dr. k was amazing, gave me tons of info and was honest with me about the complication of my revision. He was booked out a month but his staff assured me since I was a revision I would be on a list to fill a cancellation. I couldn’t believe they actually called and I had surgery within a week of my consult. Surgery is such a scary thing but I was very comfortable in Dr. K’s surgery center. The anesthesiologist spoke to me before surgery and so did he. Even after a very difficult surgery my recovery process was a breeze! I was ready to get back to the office the next day! Which I don’t recommend haha but I was ready! I was off my meds within days. My first surgery I took a full 2 weeks to recover and felt awful the entire time. I could go on and on but my results are amazing and I couldn’t recommend this entire office enough."
"I will start by saying that SSK is the place where professionalism is beyond imagination! My wife and I are both extremely pleased with the level of service and attention to detail every step of the way. I came with a need for laser hair removal and Dr. Kelishadi’s staff explained everything from A-Z with no questions left out. I’ve completed all the sessions they recommended, and the results are simply mind blowing! It helps me stay even more active with sports and not worry about ingrown hairs due to sweating. My wife on the other hand had breast revision surgery. Dr. Kelishadi is not just a top echelon plastic surgeon but also a Picasso of his trade . The results speak for themselves, absolute perfection!I wanted to leave this review here so people can get a better idea from a real client with real experience. If you’re looking for comprehensive cosmetic services, then look no further; this is your one stop shop! I would highly recommend this place to everyone!"
"Dr. Kelishadi is without a doubt the kindest, most sincere doctor - I am 2 weeks and 2 days post op from my Mommy Makeover with Dr. Kelishadi. I had a breast implant replacement from saline to gummy silicone and a breast lift. Dr. Kelishadi recommended a tummy tuck for an ultimate waistline and flat tummy but I felt it was too intense and chickened out lol! So I did a BBL instead which is lipo and fat transfer to my butt. I wanted a very natural shaping vs a huge butt. During the consultation Dr.Kelishadi paid very close attention to what I wanted and spent the time with me to explain each procedure and possible outcome. PreOp everything was online to review prior to surgery and Dr. Kelishadi answered all my questions during our preop appointment. Surgery day I was super nervous this was my 4th time going under anesthesia and my biggest surgery out of those. The staff made me comfortable and once Dr.Kelishadi arrived I was as comfortable as I could be. After surgery I stayed at the Laguna Recovery center for 3 nights which Dr.Kelishadi referred me to. Looking at my immediate results I was beyond impressed. It was better that what he explained and better that the pictures he showed me. I am still swollen and recovering however I'm super excited about how everything is healing and can't wait to see how everything goes in the next couple months. Dr. Kelishadi was very nice and concerned about my health and healing during my recovery and he checked in with me on his personal cell frequently. I've had plastic surgery twice before and Dr.Kelishadi is without a doubt the kindest, most sincere doctor I have had. I highly recommend him and may even bite the bullet and do the tummy tuck in the future. After seeing how well he taped me up after surgery and how well I'm healing I think he would do an incredible job with a tummy tuck!"
"I had my breasts done (actually redone) and all I can say is WOW. I knew how I wanted them to look but my results far exceeded my expectations and I couldn’t be happier. Very little downtime or pain with his "rapid recovery protocol" I was back to work in a very short amount of time. The best part, my boobs look amazing and I feel so secure and confident. I am a nurse and have high expectations for bedside manner and office staff professionalism, Dr. K gives better than 5 star treatment, and I would recommend him without hesitation. The best of the best and also the "king of cleavage.""
"Ssk Plastic Surgery is absolutely amazing. Dr Kelishadi and his team are very caring and professional. They definitely made me feel welcomed since the very first time I went in for consultation. I knew this was the place to have my breast revision done. Dr. K did an amazing job, I can’t even express my feelings of how happy I am with my results. He definitely brought my confidence back. If you are looking to do any type of surgical procedure Ssk Plastic Surgery is the place to go."
"I am writing this review on behalf of my wife who recently underwent breast revision surgery. From the first consultation to the last post-op visit, Dr. K has been a complete rock star. My wife’s breasts looked great before, but she had some underlying issues with them. I am certain that had we gone with a different surgeon to do the revision, she would not have had such incredible results. Dr. K knew exactly what he needed to do, therefore taking any guessing and/ or fear out of the process. My wife had a post-op complication and Dr. K took initiative, communicating with us multiple times a day and helped my wife heal quickly. My wife is now almost 4 months post-op and Dr. K continues to follow up with us to check in on how she is doing. Another great benefit of going with Dr. K is that he requires the patient to get surgery insurance to cover any unforeseen or potential issues. Had we not had the insurance, we would have been looking at additional bills, etc. Thanks to the insurance and Dr. K’s compassion, I am happy to report that my wife is looking and feeling wonderful today. Thank you for doing an incredible job. We consider you our friend for life!"

"I'm 34, mom of four kids and I breastfeed all of them. I had 3 prior breast augmentations, the last one being 11 years ago. I searched out the top surgeon for about a year before I came across Dr Kelishadi. I found his profile on Instagram and was blown away by his talent and so happy he was in Newport Beach area. I'm super picky and knew I wanted his skills to give me a revision and lift. He was very professional and honest and has a calming personality. His work speaks for it self. He's an artist of making gorgeous boobs. Mine were super saggy, I needed a revision and lift and he did an amazing job. They are back to life ! I've recommended him to a friend already who also loves her new boobies."

"Very Skilled Surgeon - Very skilled surgeon. He can fix anything. I used to be 34aa cup, then had implants 220 cc done 20 yrs ago at age 19. One of implants was never properly positioned and it ended up tracking and pulling up to my right armpit over years. I was extremely worried if I would be able to ever achieve symmetry. But Dr Kelishadi did it! They r perfectly symmetric and I got vleavage finally. I also..."
"There are not words to truly express how much I admire and trust Dr. Kelishadi. He is,without a doubt one in a million. He is compassionate, honest, professional and a perfectionist in his profession.. Last year I was diagnosed with breast cancer and with the help of my oncologist surgeon ( Dr. Kachikwu ) and Dr. Kelishadi I made the decision to have a mastectomy surgery and reconstruction surgery on the same day. The surgery went well, the tumor was entirely removed and I didn't need chemo or radiation. Dr. Kelishadi helped me to overcome the fear of having a mastectomy. He promised me he was going to treat me like he would a family member and he really did. I had a fast recovery and went back to work 6 weeks after my surgery. I feel blessed that god gave a second chance and the opportunity to met Dr.Kelishadi during my cancer journey. The results of my new breast are amazing! They are so natural looking that I don't even think of cancer anymore. I wish breast cancer on no one yet should you find yourself in need of a plastic surgeon, I pray that you will be able to see Dr. Kelishadi, he is amazing! And, his staff is very friendly and professional too. :)"
"My experience with Dr. Kalishadi from the first time I meet him and his staff was more than I expected, exceptional! Very thorough with knowledge and willingness to help with any questions you may have. I had my replacement breast augmentation and I have to say coming to him instead of my first surgeon was well worth it. Dr K made my experience so enjoyable, I highly recommend him and his staff to help others with their needs. His follow through and caring demeanor after surgery speaks high volumes. Never met another Dr. / surgeon with so much compassion and pride in his work. My results are proven to be more than I expected. I opted out of a lift to save $$ and his skills and expertise, got me exactly what I wanted without paying the extra $$. I'm so excited about my new "twins!" Summer time here I come!!"
"Dr. Kelishadi is the ABSOLUTE BEST!! I came to him with a quite complicated breast augmentation, the right breast was a grade 4 capsular contracture and sat 4 inches higher than the left breast, and the left breast had bottomed out with the nipple pointing a different direction! Having been in the medical field for 14 years I knew it was going to be nearly impossible to attain a perfect revision, but Dr.Kelishadi is such a gifted surgeon that he was able to bless me w...ith perfect boobs and gave me my bikini confidence back!! I truly have been blessed to have found him for my plastic surgeon not only is he a gifted surgeon but he is an amazing person! He treats his patients like they are his family. I honestly feel like it was a gift from god that i was able to find him! I can't thank Dr.Kelishadi and his team enough for everything they have done for me!! Not only do I highly recommend him, but he is the only plastic surgeon that I will ever recommend to my friends, family and patients!"
"I cannot say enough about dr. Kelishadi! I had my breasts redone for the second time and I couldn't have selected better doctor. My old pair were 10 years old. It was time for an upgrade!!!From my very first time meeting him, I just knew he was the one. I sensed that he is trust worthy, kind, sincere in his work ethic and had my needs for my look were at the top of his list. He has been very thorough with all of his time with me. He doesn't just talk, he listens and then gave me my options based off of what I wanted. I got exactly what I wanted and doc made sure they were perfect!!! And they are perfect!!!!I would not hesitate in contacting the doc. He's professional, personable and always checks up on me to see how my recovery is. I am 11 days post op and so far, everything is amazing."
