“Thanks everyone in OC Cosmetic Surgery Clinique for your wonderful job especially Dr. Tavoussi who changed my life. Since I have had this tummy tuck surgery, I feel much better, have grown self confident and when look at myself in the mirror I truly see my beauty back. The Clinique, staff, and surgeon were all neat, comforting, and supportive at all times.”
“Preparing for my first major surgery, I was a little nervous about getting a tummy tuck, to say the least. It always bothered me that, after giving birth 4 times to my terrific sons, I had excess loose flesh left over in my abdominal area. I have always been an exercise fiend and yet 200 daily crunches and frequent Boot Camp sessions could not rid me of that extra skin. I decided to take care of it in the only way my OB-GYN told me would work. A tummy tuck! A dear friend of mine had told me that she had had a tummy tuck done by an incredible doctor named Dr. Tavoussi. I made a decision to meet with him for a consultation, though I was not completely convinced about having a tummy tuck. I also had a hernia that needed repairing so I met with him to discuss that first and foremost.
I am not the kind of person to ‘beat around the bush’ about any issue and I sincerely appreciated Dr. Tavoussi’s honesty and details. He was very straight-forward about what was involved in having a hernia repair. I asked about the tummy tuck and he was very open about what will happen on the morning of the surgery, what I can expect to experience immediately after as well as a few days after. I agreed to having both procedures done simultaneously. On the morning of the surgery, he greeted me in the hospital and immediately asked how I was doing and if I had any questions. I recall that I was nervous and asked for a delicate butterfly needle for the anesthetic. He and the anesthesiologist, both put me at ease as to what pain I might experience.
At every step of the process, Dr. Tavoussi was considerate of my fears and even got me laughing. His bedside manner is just one of his special qualities. After the surgery, he told me, again, what to expect since he knew I expected myself to be up and exercising in no time. He said I would feel uncomfortable walking as I did before just initially since I probably would not be standing upright for a few days. He was right. I was afraid that I would never standup straight again. He smiled and said that I had nothing to worry about. He said it would be uncomfortable for a while as my body adjusts and heals itself, but that I will be standing upright, going to work and back in the gym as usual. Again, he was right.
I put all my trust in him. I must have called his office and spoke to him 5 or 6 times during that first week and a half just to hear his reassuring words that what I was feeling was normal. He recommended a special diet high in protein which I adhered to and found that it really maximized the results. At the 3-week post-surgery check-up I discovered that I was allowed to go back to the gym! I have since been to see him twice for follow-up check-ups and he is deeply pleased with how I am healing. I know what he sees is truly good work since all of my family and friends have commented on my ‘rock-hard abs.’ I am so pleased with the results and equally delighted that I chose Dr. Tavoussi to handle this surgery. I cannot imagine having any other professional do it. Thank you, Dr. Tavoussi!”
“Dr. Tavoussi is a great surgeon and he did his best for my nose job, I was really impressed and so was everyone looking at me after the surgery. From the beginning and free consultation Dr. Tavoussi was so supportive and knowledgeable that I could feel comfortable and safe choosing him as my cosmetic surgeon. The clinique staff were friendly to me and at my service at all times. The post operative procedure was also great and satisfactorily. Thanks and many thanks OC Clinique and Dr. Tavoussi again for your wonderful job.”
“To the staff at OC Cosmetic Surgery Clinique, no words can express what you have done both physically and emotionally to me. We appreciate all that you have done to my wife during her liposuction procedure. We are totally satisfied and happy with the result thanks to Dr. Tavoussi for his beautiful job.”
“I wanted to thank you all so much for your outstanding service. You made me feel at home and as part of the family. I was handled with superior care from the administration staff to the Medical Staff. What a tight ship you run. Dr. Tavoussi meeting you was amazing. I am so glad that I chose your clinic and I know that I will be thrilled with the outcome of my surgery. I will keep you posted on my recovery. Thank you once again. Super-duper place. Thank you.”
“It’s only been three weeks since my aunt’s liposuction procedure at OC Cosmetic Surgery Clinique and I can’t believe the difference. She has experienced little pain and almost no set backs to her daily routine. Most importantly, she looks incredible. No more questioning about what she’s wearing, or hiding behind baggy clothes. The love handles are gone plus, she is still losing weight and shrinking in sizes. I have not only noticed a change in her physically, I can tell she is a whole woman inside. The staff at OC Cosmetic Surgery Clinic did such a great job. They made such a scary decision for her worth it in the end.”
“My facelift procedure went smoothly and very well planned thanks to Dr. Tavoussi and his kind staff. From the first consultation we had – and it was for free – till the procedure’s date, everyone in OC Cosmetic Clinique Surgery was trying to make me feel comfortable and safe which I personally believe is very important before you go under knife.
Dr. Tavoussi was supportive and knowledgeable to me, he explained every step I was about to go through before hand and made me feel more relaxed by doing so. The procedure and facelift was really much easier for me than I thought it was going to be. After the surgery, they took good care of everything and after a week I was able to go back to my normal daily life without any issues. Thanks Dr. Tavoussi, he knows what he is doing and his job very well.”
“I work at the a General Hospital in LA, and found my plastic surgeon here at OC Cosmetic Surgery Clinique in Los Angeles. He was highly recommended by everyone I talked to. I always had bags under my eyes, not just because of growing older. I had the surgery done when I was 37. As far as I’m concerned, the results are great! I feel so much better that I don’t look tired all the time, and in fact, it also helped wrinkles around my eyes. I think this has made me look younger, as well. My recovery was one week, when the bruises healed and the pain was gone. There was very little pain through the whole experience, as a matter of fact. Very, very satisfied.”
“I had my eyes done at 39 because I started to look tired all of the time. It was the best money that I ever spent. My plastic surgeon Dr. Tavoussi did an amazing job! He also lasered the area. People think that I am 37 or 38. It made such a difference! It’s almost 6 years later and the under-eye bags have not returned. I have very large deep set eyes which tend to age quicker than most so this surgery was wonderful. I had a nose job at 17 too! My kids joke when people say they look like me. Their response is “how would we know!” Thanks Dr. Tavoussi.”
“To the staff at OC Cosmetic Surgery Clinique, no words can express what you have done both physically and emotionally to me. I appreciate all that you have done to my body during my Buttock Augmentation procedure. I’m totally satisfied and happy with the result thanks to Dr. Tavoussi for his beautiful job.”

“I like them, I love them. They look good. They are firmer and prettier. Have it done, especially if it looked like mine did. Make sure it is what you really want to do, it is what I wanted. It has to be something you really want. The experience was worthwhile, I am very happy with my new breasts. They look better, they feel better. I look better in cloths and feel more confident now. I am just happy with them now.
Dr. Tavoussi was perfect and my procedure went not only according to plan, I knew from the beginning that what I was going to look like after the surgery. He is the best and his staff are kind and nice at all times. Everything was easier than I thought; I did not have much pain from it. I like the end result, much better. Surgery was easier, I thought I would be in more pain than I was; I really was not in much pain. I wish I had done it much sooner.”
“I just wanted to send a heartfelt “Thank you” to Dr. Tavoussi, Erica and all of the staff at the OC Cosmetic Surgery Clinique for the outstanding level of care and professionalism I received! Starting with the very first time I called, through my consultation, my surgery and during the full life cycle of care & aftercare, I cannot express how impressed (and grateful) I am to all of you! Working myself in the healthcare industry, I can honestly say that your services and staff have truly ‘set-the- bar’ for other cosmetic clinics in North America.
After only been two weeks my surgery and I feel (and look) amazing! I firmly believe this is mostly due to the education, knowledge, advice and care you all gave to me before, during and after my surgery. Dr. Tavoussi you’re not only a truly gifted surgeon but also an “artist.” I look in the mirror at the “new me” and I feel blessed to have found you. Thank you so very much for taking the time and care and for always making me feel as if I weren’t just a number but more like family. Your clinic is not only outstanding in the medical side of things, but is modern, clean, comfortable and filled with staff that I can only describe as ‘professionals who are made of class.’ Thank you all for everything!!”
“Everyone at OC Cosmetic Surgery Clinic was professional, knowledgeable & above all, supportive. I felt safe and confident that my procedure was being performed by capable hands. I received excellent care, and am extremely impressed with the results of my surgery. Great job, and all the best in the future. Thank you”
“Dr. Tavoussi you are a sweetheart – you are just the best. Words cannot describe how thankful I am (THANK YOU, THANK YOU AND MORE THANKS). The best clinic in Orange County and I am thankful to find it, I made the best choice when I met you guys after years of research and wishing to be in safe hands and finally it’s done. I look and feel great thanks to you.I look at my self in the mirror and there it is – my wish has come true. I love what you have done. Special thanks to Lori, nurses, and office staff (truly amazing team) all the best. Thanks.”
“My journey in finding a qualified Plastic Surgeon who was familiar with the complications and emotional results of a post-op Bariatric patient was an arduous one. I found Dr. Tavoussi after an extensive search led me to one of his informative and FREE evening forums.
I was immediately impressed. He was not disinterested in my WLS issues (as so many before had been), but instead really listened to my worries and my dreams – dreams that could only be possible with the help of a skilled and knowledgeable plastic surgeon. I had a Arm Lift procedure three weeks ago (skin removed on my arms) – and already have plans to have a breast reduction/lift and tummy tuck in 30 more lbs or so. Meanwhile, this simple procedure has already made me feel better about myself, and Dr. Tavoussi’s humor, intelligence and obvious caring made all the difference.
I was not a “typical” plastic surgery candidate, and if anything, he and his awesome staff made me feel even more important than I could have expected. I cannot say enough about my WONDERFUL relationship with this great man. Thank you.”
“Eight and one half months ago I had a VSG and lost a significant amount of weight which left me with the usual baggy skin, etc. Smoking, age and continually remaining outside without sunscreen further contributed to the problem. When I looked in the mirror I saw my 88 year-old Mimi’s face looking back at me.
I chose Dr. Tavoussi and OC Cosmetic surgery Clinique to perform the surgery after reading reviews from this boards and interviewing another surgeon. Pre-operatively, Dr. Tavoussi devoted much time to answering my questions about procedures, explaining risks in detail and describing my post-op care. His down-to earth style and funny one-liners created a fun and comfortable environment. In addition to Dr. Tavoussi’s sense of humor, he maintains a delightful and helpful staff.
As I have a mentally and physically challenged adult daughter, scheduling and obtaining care for her during this time posed some unusual constraints. The staff and Dr. Tavoussi graciously worked to arrange the surgery when it was most convenient for me. Dr. Tavoussi performed a face lift, neck lift, upper and lower eyelid surgery and brow lift. The results exceeded my expectations. I have been please and others have been complimentary of the results even though I am only four weeks post-op. The minimal pain I experienced was well controlled with medications and follow-up care has been as thorough as the pre-op care. Dr. Tavoussi is a true artist, dedicated to improving the looks and lives of his patients. Thank you.”
“Dr. Tavoussi is a GOD send to anyone that has had bariatric surgery and now faces the difficult task of removing excess skin and correcting other defects associated with weight loss. Dr. Tavoussi worked with me to put together the best plan for me to get everything accomplished that I felt needed to be corrected on my new, smaller body.
I never felt rushed while with him and he never seemed distracted, like he had other things to do. His office staff is the best I have ever dealt with!!! Courteous, kind, and understanding. I recommend Dr. Tavoussi to anyone in the continental US that wants their surgery to be spectacular. I would be more than happy to answer questions regarding Dr. Tavoussi regarding my procedure from a patient point of view.”
“After having weight loss surgery (lap-band) a few years ago and having a weight loss of 35kgs (77lbs) and having a lot of sagging skin and a few rolls of fat on my tummy and a small apron, I chose to have a Tummy Tuck, Arm Lift and Thigh Lipo a few weeks ago. I have been amazed by the results and would recommend it to others in the same situation.
My arm scars are heeling very well and the scars will be noticeable if you look hard but its just a thin straight scar from elbow to just below my underarm. The tummy tuck scar is doing well so far as well, still very swollen at this stage though. The thigh lipo was a look and see, Dr. Tavoussi and I knew that I may need a thigh lift and further thigh lipo at a later date and I definitely will.”
“To the staff at OC Cosmetic Surgery Clinique, no words can express what you have done both physically and emotionally to me. I appreciate all that you have done to my face during my facelift procedure. I’m totally satisfied and happy with the result thanks to Dr. Tavoussi for his beautiful job.”
