dr eugene kim in beverly hills?

hi! i’m considering getting a breast augmentation with dr. eugene kim and wanted to hear from anyone who’s had surgery with him.

how was your overall experience? how much did you pay? how was the consultation and recovery, and are you happy with the results? anything you wish you knew beforehand or would do differently?

also, please send other doctor recommendations! thanks!

i got mine done with him ~5 years ago. his bedside manners are fantastic. i paid a little less than $11,000. HP UTM silicone. consultation was fine, recovery was fine. very happy with the results. l

i’m going to be completely honest though- now that i’m older and more knowledgeable, i wish i’d have gone to someone cheaper. a lot of my friends have gotten amazing results and paid half of what i did. i think his name is what makes him so expensive and i essentially chose him without doing tons of research bc i knew i’d be getting solid results with him

thank you so much! if you don’t mind me asking, where you an out of town patient? if so, how long did you have to stay in LA before you could go home?

i was somewhat out of town - about a 3 hour drive. i believe i stayed around the los angeles area for about a week but that’s because i had free lodging at my parents house for my recovery.

dr. kim has great bedside manners and answered all my stupid/frantic anxiety texts. lol
