Breast Augmentation Surgery
I have been on a weight loss journey since 2018 and after dropping 30 pounds, I was finally happy with my body. However, I have always had a small chest and knew that was the one thing I would love to enhance on my body. Since I was on the fence, I searched through RealSelf.com for qualified surgeons, and found Dr. Laverson. After reading his excellent patient testimonials and noticing that he provided a more "natural" look, I was convinced to book a consultation with him.
Cherise and Courtney were very helpful with booking the consultation and super accommodating with my schedule. During the consultation, Dr. Laverson was super informative and listened to all my concerns. I could tell by his care and attention, that he was the right surgeon for me.
Overall, I am extremely happy with my results! It is exactly what I wanted and more. If I could give my experience with Dr. Laverson and his team more than 5 stars, I would. Thank you again!

Awesome experience! So happy with my experience and results.
Had both arm lift and tummy tuck. Traveled from out of town for surgery. Dr. Laverson spent a lot of time talking with me, explaining the procedures. Very kind and professional.

"My First Surgical Experience from Start to Finish"
Dr Laverson whom I set out to find from my home town of Albuquerque NM, in order to perform a delicate and complex surgery has gone above and beyond what I've have ever thought I could have had. Dr Laverson has the kindest bedside manner, beyond expert skills in his field, and just has the ability to ease all your fears, concerns and puts you first in your client centered care. I absolutely love him and his team, everyone was great, from start to finish I will only come to Dr Laverson for any type of his specialized surgeries. His group of skilled nurses, OR team members, and receptionist make every moment perfect.

amazing experience
The staff is so friendly and understanding. Always in great communication. I had many visits to help me post surgery as well. I felt very comfortable with the whole process. Dr. Laverson answered every phone call I had at any point of the day.

Excellent Surgeon, no visible scars, a perfectionist
Dr Steven Laverson is amazing, he is a great surgeon and a perfectionist in his work. I have no visible scars from a major breast replacement. He made sure my surgery gave me the results expected. He watched my recovery closely. I trust him totally and am so glad I chose him to replace my breasts over all the other doctors that were recommended.
This doctor has high expectations and excellent follow through. A master in his surgery. I love his staff and Thank them for being there for me. I love my breasts again, they look great.

I had a great experience
I had a breast augmentation procedure with Dr Laverson and I am very pleased with the results. I had a lot of concerns about the surgery, sizing and recovery but Dr Laverson and his assistant were very patient about answering all my questions and making sure that I was comfortable all the way through.

I absolutely LOVE my new boobs
From the very first visit to Dr Laverson's, I felt completely at ease. (We even laughed a few times). The staff are amazing, friendly, and 100% professional. We discussed all my options, I didn't feel pressured or rushed, and I was able to schedule my procedure on a day that worked for me.
Over the past 3 months since my surgery, all my post op visits have been great! Dr Laverson makes sure you have everything you need for a successful recovery. He's totally committed to giving you the best experience & result possible.
After 30 years of horrible bra shopping experiences, not knowing what to wear at the beach, saggy top bikinis, and large hanging pendulous breasts... I now have the perfect boobs I have always wanted! I literally cried like a baby the first time I put on a triangle bikini top! Tears of pure joy! I could not be happier with my new "girls" - and I 110% recommend Feel Beautiful, Dr Laverson, & all their staff. Best decision I've ever made - wish I'd done it 20 years ago

breast augmentation/revision
i could not be happier with my experience and results from dr. laverson. he was extremely detail oriented and spent a lot of time explaining the procedure and details and making sure the results were exactly what i wanted. i would say he is a perfectionist which is what is what is wanted in a plastic surgeon. my results look tremendously better than my first procedure with a different plastic surgeon. he also has seen me multiple times after to make sure everything is healing and i am happy with my results. the entire staff has also been amazing; very knowledgeable, friendly, and made me feel very comfortable.

My experience was amazing and I couldn't have asked for better people to be helping me through this surgery.
I had a labiaplasty done and I was very pleased with how everything went. The day of surgery was so much less nerve racking than I thought it would be because the staff made me so comfortable and made everything that as going to happen so clear. They gave me a bag full of things to help with the recovery and it helped so much. I am so happy with the results and am so much more confident. I couldn't have asked for a better experience or better people to do this for me. They're amazing!

Insecurity solved!
I have always been insecure about my labia size, so when I heard of Labiaplasty I knew it was something I wanted to move forward with. I searched for doctors on real self and found that Dr.Laverson was the top provider in San Diego for labiaplasty. Turns out he also did my sisters breast augmentation so I knew he was trustworthy. I set up my consultation as soon as possible, the office was quick about getting me in and booking me as soon as possible. Dr.Laverson assured me that he was invested in me feeling like I had the perfect labia results. The surgery itself was a breeze, I was so relaxed that fell sleep, woke up and it was done! Of course post op I did experience minor discomfort but the pain was only temporary. I am over the moon happy with my results, and would recommend Dr.Laverson to whomever is considering this surgery. If you have any insecurities about your labia size like I did, this is the solution. Thank you Dr.Laverson!

Breast Augmentation
Dr. Laverson and his team went above and beyond explaining to me the process. Everyone who helped me, from Cherise to Courtney, to other nurses, the anesthesiologist, and of course Dr. Laverson, explained the process very well. After my surgery, I ended up getting a hematoma, which I believe was because of my own fault and activities and not because of the surgery, and Dr. Laverson and team took action right away to get the complication corrected. I also ended up getting capsulation which resulted to another surger that Dr. Laverson was very glad and willing to do, as well as a lift. Overall, Dr. Laverson and his team worked diligently with me to get the result that I wanted. Furthermore, I received multiple follow up appointments, which made me feel very cared for. Dr. Laverson will not let you walk away without the best results possible! I am so thankful that I ended up with him and his team and not elsewhere!

Best breast augmentation experience!
I cannot recommend Dr. Laverson and his staff enough! The entire process was seamless. When you step through the Feel Beautiful office you are immediately welcomed by Cherise! The office is clean and sparkling. Coutney is amazing. I never felt worried or scared on the days leading up to surgery. Dr. Laverson was professional throughout the entire process. I never felt pressured to go up in size or get something that wouldn't work with my body. The day of surgery was smooth. Maya was my nurse and she was so sweet and patient with me! If you are thinking about a breast augmentation-look no further than the Feel Beautiful office. You won't be disappointed.

Loved working with Dr. Laverson and his staff!
I am very satisfied with my experinece here at Feel Beautiful. From my initial phone call with the receptionist I was always able to get on the phone with someone quickly with no wait time or automated answering machines. Scheduling my appointments was very easy. I would have liked a post-op apt earlier than what was recommended but I always had the choice to come in if really needed. I would definitely recommend this office to a freind for any cosmetic procedures.

Best Dr. in the World
Dr. Laverson is extremely straight forward, listens and does AMAZING work. Cherise at the front office and Courtney, the nurse are extremely professional and always fit me in when I need to squeeze in early or late for my scheduled appointment. Everyone at this office is above and beyond professional. I have been at the office for over 5 years and I would never leave.

It has made every day life more comfortable with no more insecurities. If you are thinking about having this procedure, Dr. Laverson is the best out there and dont wait any longer!

Fantastic staff with fantastic results!
Dr. Laverson and his staff were very professional and knowledgeable from start to finish. Cherise started my journey with kindess and great info to get me started. Courtney RN is knowledgable, friendly and professional during a procedure that most women are embarrassed to embark on. Dr. Laverson is professional and compassionate as well. I knew I was in good hands after our very first visit.

100% Best Decision I made!
Dr. Laverson is the real deal. He is very honest in the consult and post-op about what will work best for your body and what to expect. My results could not be more perfect. I wanted to have breast augmentation but not look 'fake' and he and his wonderful assistant spent the time with me to find the right size and style implant for my body. All of my friends are jealous of my 30th Birthday present to myself. I feel confident and very pleased with the results.

Listened to my desires and worked to accommodate
Dr. Laverson is wonderful! I went to him for my rhinoplasty and wanted a smaller tip for my nose as well as more definition in its shape. He worked to create mock-up images that were what I had envisioned, and was very open to notes on the images to ensure it was exactly what I wanted. He communicates very clearly throughout the entire process to make sure you are on the same page, which makes for a pretty great experience overall. If I ever want more done in the future, Dr. Laverson will be the first person I call! Love his willingness to communicate as well as his great attention to detail.

Super attentive and detailed!
From first consultation through my surgery and post-op appointments, Dr. Laverson was always so attentive to my needs and desired outcome. He truly cares about making the final result perfect and made sure all of my questions were answered. I felt safe and welcomed through the whole process by the Feel Beautiful team and wholeheartedly recommend their services.

Dr. Laverson makes your desired results his priority!
I had heard great things about Dr. Laverson from a friend and was not dissapointed after my first consoltation. I set my surgery date for a breast augementation immediately after my consolation and was instantly obessed with the results!

Stellar!
I went to see Dr. Laverson for a Labiaplasty procedure. It's been something that has caused me stress and anxiety my whole life just being ashamed of my natural anatomy. Dr. Laverson was very kind and tactful throughout the consultation and was confident and diligent in his reccommendation. I felt comfortable booking my surgery ASAP! The day of my surgery, I was anxious, nervous, excited.... All the emotions. I was given some xanex when I arrived, so I was feeling REAL good by the time we got started. The procedure itself was a breeze. I didn't feel a thing! The healing process was a little rough for me, but everyone is different and for some, its definitely a lot easier. I am now 10 weeks out from my surgery and I am ECSTATIC! I still look like ME, but more aesthetically pleasing... I absolutely would reccommend Dr. Laverson for anyone considering a labiaplasty procedure!

Dr Laverson is amazing!
My experience with Dr Laverson was far and above my expectations. Dr Laverson is a true artist who really cares that his clients are happy with their results. He has been very easy to contact with my post operative questions and he has made consistent effort to make sure that I am happy with the results of my procedure. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to have an amazing experience with a plastic surgeon who truly cares.

Flawless Rhinoplasty experience
I had been to several consults over the years before making my decision to go with Dr Laverson. From my firs conversation with him, I noticed he had a passion for his job as he explained the entire process to me. He mentioned this complex procedure is one of his favorite procedures to perform. He even drew a sketch of what I would potentially look like after (it was pretty accurate).
Everyone in his office is absolutely wonderful and they all made me feel as if I was a priority. I never felt rushed or pressured at any time to make a decision. After a year of waiting, I made the decision to go forward with this procedure and I am glad I did. Dr Laverson is a truly brilliant, gifted, kind and compassionate surgeon. My only advice to anyone thinking about surgery is to be patient and do your research. I am two weeks post-op and this has been life changing for me. I couldn't be happier with the result.

Absolutely fantastic results and a wonderful experience from start to finish
Throughout the entire process, from booking my consultation to my follow-up appointments after surgery, everyone I interacted with was so sweet and accommodating. This was a huge contrast to my previous experience with a doctor in Beverly Hills, where I was made to feel like more of an afterthought than a valued patient. Dr. Laverson did an outstanding job and I genuinely could not be happier with my results. My thigh lift scars are very well camouflaged and my tummy tuck scars look incredible. I was really worried about not having a natural-looking belly button, but it came out great and I can bare my stomach without feeling self-conscious. Overall, this was a hugely positive experience and my results have helped me feel more confident and happier with my appearance than I've been in years.

The most phenomenal Dr in San Diego. No joke.
Dr. Laverson treated me like a family member from the time I walked through the door to my final appointment. He is a perfectionist. He is a pro and he wants you to be happy with the end result. You will love the result and you will love he and his staff. They are a class act!
I am 51 years old and had heavy double d breasts. I had a lift and breast augmentation that I wish I'd done 20 years ago. The end result is beautiful.

very happy!
my experience at feel beautiful was nothing but amazing! the staff is so friendly and personable. labia reconstruction surgery can seem scary because the area is so sensitive, but dr. laverson and staff did all they could to make me feel comfortable. surgery it self was quick and easy. my recovery was also smooth sailing! pain was never above a 4/10 and ice packs were my best friend. at my two week follow up i was amazed at the level of healing been done! completely comfortable to say the least. thank you feel beautiful!

Best Decision I Have Ever Made
I had wanted to get a breast lift for quite some time, but was very nervous about finding the right doctor. From the minute I walked into the office and met the staff, I could tell I had made the right choice. Everyone was very welcoming, there was absolutely no judgement, or preassure to move faster than I wanted. Dr. Laverson answered all of my questions, and there were a lot, with a smile and a desire to truly help. Surgery day went so well, and he even called me personally the next day to check up on me. Follow up has been so easy, and any time I have even the smallest question they were extremely easy to get ahold of. Dr. Laverson and his staff are so friendly, knowledgeable, and detail oriented, that now when I think of any future procedures I may want or need I am excited at the thought to work with them again. I can't thank them enough for the results I have gotten, and the confidence I have in myself again!

Dr. Laverson was so caring and experienced!
My experience with Dr. Laverson was fantastic. He made me feel so comfortable even though I was nervous. He answered all my questions and never pressured me to do anything I wasnt comfortable with. He wrote everything down that I said in pre op appointments so that he wouldnt forget what my wants and deisres were. I really felt at ease when I saw that. He cares about all his patients. His surgery center is extrememly clean and beautiful. Being a surgical tech i was looking at all of that! I was truly impressed.

The best decision I have ever made!
Dr Laverson was my second consult and I felt so comfortable and sure about him and his team, that I booked a date and paid in full. Dr Laverson was very open about the procedures and answered all questions, along with giving us extra education on the procedures and the body. There was never a feeling of being rushed and I saw Dr Laverson for every post op appointment. You can definitely tell that everyone (from front desk to surgeon) really cares about you.
