You Are Beautiful Aesthetic Institute by Jae Kim, MD

I had a surgery today with Dr. Kim. Everything went really well and Dr. Kim was fantastic. He told me what he was doing every step of the way. He even records the entire procedure so he can go back and critique his own technique. He's extremely dedicated to his craft. Tracy is also awesome. She called the day before, made sure everything was taken care of and made herself available for any questions. I rarely ever give out 5 stars for anything, because it's so difficult to find people who are passionate about their jobs, care deeply about their clients, and provide great value for the services they provide. Again, it is functionally impossible for me to express how great the experience was with Dr. Kim and the entire staff.

This was my first time visiting YAB Aesthetics for a rhinoplasty injection consultation, and I had such a delightful experience from beginning to end. The office itself was absolutely beautiful! Very clean, bright, and inviting that I genuinely felt afraid to touch anything because everything looked so pristine and white in the best way possible. I was greeted by Tracey and her presence immediately made me feel welcomed and comfortable. She was incredibly kind throughout the entire process and even accompanied Dr. Kim during my procedure today. She kept me calm and relaxed by offering stress balls and gently reminding me to breathe (which I definitely needed because apparently I was holding my breath the whole time). One thing I really appreciated was that I never felt rushed during my consultation or evaluation. I came in with concerns that I honestly didn’t explain very well, but Dr. Kim still understood exactly what I meant and was able to achieve the results I wanted. What stood out to me most was how honest and thorough he was. Some things I thought were concerns actually turned out to be normal or even beneficial. For example, after gaining weight following a previous buccal fat removal, I thought my face looked asymmetrical or like my skin was sagging/sinking. Dr. Kim explained that my skin wasn’t sagging at all and that certain areas could simply benefit from skin treatments like facials or lasers. He also reassured me that the fat under my eyes when I smile is actually something that helps maintain a youthful appearance. I also thought my nose looked wide, but he educated me that if the width of your nose falls within the inner corners of your eyes, it generally isn’t considered wide. He explained that making my nose any narrower would actually make it look overly narrow and less balanced with my facial features. I really appreciated how educational the consultation was because he took the time to explain facial harmony and proportions instead of just agreeing to every concern I had. He also explained side profile aesthetics and how injecting too much filler into certain areas can end up looking unnatural. Instead, he discussed alternative placement techniques that could achieve a softer and more natural-looking result. I appreciated that he focused on maintaining natural beauty rather than overdoing anything. Another thing I appreciated was that they give patients the option to opt out of having photos posted online. Not every office offers that level of respect for privacy, so it meant a lot to me. The actual procedure only took about 5 minutes, which was surprisingly quick and smooth. By the end of everything, I was also happy to learn they offer flexible payment plans because sometimes paying everything upfront just isn’t realistic. Overall, my experience was wonderful, and I’m already looking forward to returning in a couple of weeks for a skin consultation!

This place is beautiful - both aesthetically (!) and humanly; the doc and the staff are all very kind and gracious. The people here are all beautifully kind. Dr. Kim is a graduate of Julliard and Harvard, yet is very humble and caring: no exaggeration - I am deeply impressed by some doctors we know who upholding the Hippocratic Oath. And again, the staffers are all consistently kind...my wife and children are blessed. I hope many patients find this place. And they surely are going to be blessed like we are.

I had such a great experience with NP Perla! She did my Botox and lip filler, and everything turned out exactly how I wanted which was natural, balanced, and not overdone at all. She took the time to really listen to my goals, explain the process, and make sure I felt comfortable every step of the way. Her technique is amazing. I had minimal discomfort and barely any bruising. I also loved how honest she was about what would look best for my face rather than just doing more for the sake of it. I left feeling so confident and will definitely be going back. Highly recommend Perla!!
