I highly recommend Dr. Newman. He is very skilled and his attention to detail is reassuring. He did an eyelid procedure on me 15 years ago. My eyes looked good then and they still do! I have such confidence in his work that I recommended him to a young male relative who just had the same procedure and his eyes look great too!

I had a β€œmommy makeover” from Dr. Fryer and I could not be happier about my results. I have a smooth and tight body with no extra skin. Basically the body of a 20 year old! lol
I’ve referred several friends that have gone to Dr. Fryer and they were also over the moon about their results. I cannot recommend him highly enough!

It has been a year since my β€œmommy makeover” with Dr. Maglic and I can say with absolute certainty I would do it all over again! I am beyond pleased with my results but what made the experience worthwhile is the skill, talent, and kindness from Dr. Maglic. I 1000% recommend him and his staff at Premier Plastic Surgery.

I could not rave enough about Dr. Watterson and my experience with his office!!!! I have gone to multiple consults debating a tummy tuck over the years and after a friend was raving about Dr Watterson I thought I would give it one more try. I'm from out of state and after one visit I knew he was the doc for me! I have referred anyone I can think of to him. Even my MIL who was dropping me off for surgery met him once and as she left the office she booked a consult for herself ha! He has the best bedside manner and every nurse I've worked with has been just great! Do not hesitate to visit Dr. Watterson- 10/10 rec

Dr. Magic and his staff had a great bedside manner. He explained things very well so I could understand them. All in all everything went well. The only drawback is that he couldn't finish the job due to a prior surgery and the mesh that was used.

I had Dr Maglic treat me. I was very impressed with his knowledge and skill. He took the time to explain the procedure so I felt comfortable. He popped in just before the treatment and again made me more comfortable. He thoroughly explained step by step how it would play out. that day and it went exactly as he said. I met with him the very next day so he could check it out and see how I was feeling.. Most doctors treat you and send you out the door. I have been to Premier one other time and the whole staff makes you feel comfortable. This is a well run business with talented doctors. Schedule with Dr Maglic you will be as hapoy and impressed as I was.

I had an atypical experience with Premier Plastic Surgery. I traveled from Boise for a consult with Dr. Maglic. I loved him and was excited for my surgery in March. I traveled down again for my pre-op appointment one week before my surgery date. During that following week, I learned I had colon cancer. I had to cancel my cosmetic surgery on a Friday evening before my scheduled Monday 12pm surgery. Everyone I spoke to was so understanding and so caring. I wasn’t just a customer, I was a real person to them. The nurses I spoke to and Lauren, the scheduler, were amazing. I had already paid in full and they made sure I was refunded to pay for my unexpected medical bills. I would absolutely recommend Premier Plastic Surgery.

I recently had a Mommy Makeover with Dr. Howland at Premier Plastic Surgery, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience! From my very first consultation, Dr. Howland was incredibly personable, taking the time to answer all my questions thoroughly. Even after hours, he was always available and eager to ensure I felt informed and comfortable every step of the way. The entire staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely excited to see me at each visit, creating such a positive atmosphere.

Even my lymphatic massage therapist was impressed with how well I was healing under Dr. Howland’s care, which gave me even more confidence in my decision. From start to finish, I felt like I was in the best hands. I highly recommend Dr. Howland and his team to anyone considering plastic surgery!

I had a great experience with Dee Mohouche, RN. She has excellent observation skills and aesthetic sense combined with deep knowledge of treatments. She quickly identified the appearance issues caused by my partial facial paralysis and a small lip scar and said there were treatments that could help. A skeptic, I told her that was impossible. She proved me wrong. It turns out that while the paralysis caused by nerves severed in an accident cannot be fixed, how the rest of my face moves could be adjusted to improve the appearance. Her approach was more comprehensive and thoughtful than I’ve experience with other professionals. I appreciated her confidence, direct manner, and, most of all, her kindness. She performed the recommended treatments and I am very happy with the result. I’ve had the paralysis for most of my life and I wish I had encountered her many years ago. She’s the first to make a significant improvement in my face.

I had the pleasure of seeing Nurse Dee at Premier Plastic Surgery, and I cannot recommend her enough! She’s incredibly patient and took the time to really listen to my concerns, answering all my questions with such thoroughness and care. Nurse Dee's expertise in facial fillers is unmatched. She has a keen aesthetic eye and a gentle touch that made the whole experience feel so much less daunting. Her approach is calm and reassuring, making the process both comfortable and enjoyable. What truly sets her apart is her bedside mannerβ€”she’s not only highly skilled but also compassionate and kind, ensuring you feel relaxed and confident every step of the way. I’m beyond happy with the results and am so grateful for her professionalism and talent. If you're considering any treatments, Nurse Dee is the person to see!

I would recommend any and everyone to see Dr. Newman. I was diagnosed with basal cell skin cancer just below my right eye. The basal cell straddled the soft thin skin below my eye as well as the thicker skin of my cheek. Since I was told it needed to be removed and my insurance wasn't going to have a plastic surgeon remove it, I consulted and ultimately had Dr. Newman remove it. I DO NOT regret have Dr Newman remove it. He did such an amazing job that the scar is hardly visible. Friends and family can hardly believe I had a surgical procedure on such a delicate area of my face and had such amazing results. Thank You so much Dr. Newman.

I look great, the result is outstanding and I get compliments every day. Dr. Newman is excellent at what he does. I would give him more than five stars if I could. Everything about that experience was unbelievable. The place is super clean and so comfortable. Prices are incredibly low compared to other doctors. His staff is outstanding and very accommodating. I would definitely go back for my next procedure.

I had a great experience with Dr. Newman and his team (Windy & Dee) this year. I underwent a transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty a few weeks ago. Dee and Windy frequently contacted me to check in after the surgery and to answer questions which I appreciated. The surgery itself was done with local anesthesia and there was very little pain and discomfort. I was sent home with an eye ointment and all the prescriptions I needed to stay pain free and heal well. There was no pain during recovery at all, so I ended up not using the pain meds. The undereye bruising cleared in about a week. I had a minor complication, chemosis in the right eye, that appeared about a week after the surgery. It's important to note that this can happen to anyone who gets this procedure done, regardless of choice of surgeon. Dr. Newman saw me quickly, and suggested continuing to use the ointment they supplied earlier, and the chemosis cleared up in about a week. I also just want to say how great Dee was especially, I love how personable and friendly she is, and when I came into the office she seemed to read my mind (I already wanted the lower bleph but hadn't said anything yet, and she seemed to already know!! haha.) Anyway! I'm happy with the results Dr. Newman managed to achieve for me, and I'll very likely be back to try out some non surgical treatments too in the future.

Of note, I'm an RN who has worked in quality and safety for many years and was impressed with the cleanliness and organization of their San Mateo surgical suite. In addition, their before and after procedure processes were meticulous. Sending a BIG THANK YOU to Dr. Newman, Dr. Sun (my anesthesiologist), Windy, Troy, and Dee!!

Dr. Newman and his staff are the absolute best!

Dr. Newman is a very kind, patient, and talented surgeon. I recently came in for a rhinoplasty and could not be more satisfied with the results.
I was extremely nervous to have the procedure done, as I have never had surgery before. He made sure to take the time and walk me through the entire process and sent me pictures of what type of nose would be suitable to my face based on what I told him I was looking for. Within a few weeks from my consultation, I had the surgery scheduled and it went even better than I expected.

I'm so thankful for this doctor and his entire staff. They made sure I was relaxed and comfortable during the entire procedure, and I woke up feeling great. The recovery went very smoothly and I had very minimal bruising the first three days.

Dr. Newman is very talented at his craft. If you are even considering undergoing any medical procedure, he is definitely someone you need to visit. I absolutely love my new nose and could not be thankful enough!

Amazing place; I cannot say enough about Dr. Newman and his staff.

Dr. Newman has the best bedside manner I have ever experienced. This is important, because while doing these procedures you need someone that listens to what you're saying and who will be honest and advise you accordingly.

He is extremely caring, nothing like what you would expect from the top plastic surgeon; many of them are so conceited that you can't even talk to them. Big egos. Not here; I am in deep like with this facility. When someone takes a good 20 years off your appearance, you just have to be grateful and thankful. He does that! I even met a woman there that was around 70, and she didn't look a day over 50 or maybe even less. She looked completely natural, no ridiculous bubble lips or other funny things.

I honestly cannot say enough about this doctor and staff.

Thank you Dr. Newman for raising my confidence and self-esteem.

I went in to see Dr. James Newman for Blepharoplasty (upper and lower eyelid) surgery.
I met with Dr. Newman in Half Moon Bay, and later had my surgery in Palo Alto, Calif.
The doctor came in and just picked up a pen and drew where he would make his cuts, and off I went into a beautiful, clean and state of the
art surgery room. I was amazed to go from a doctors exam room to this beautiful room.
Dr. Newman is an artist, to be able to just draw what he is going to do and it comes out perfect.
His Anesthesiologist, Dr. Sun was amazing as well, he knew I was nervous about the anesthesia because I always have problems with my veins. Not this time, he numbed me, which I never felt and after there was just a little bruise.
I also must mention his nurse, Dee Mouhouche was always kind, gentle and reassuring.
From the staff to my end result I felt no pain and was always treated with the utmost respect.

Thank you, you will all probably see me again!

A year ago I went to Dr. Newman because I had saggy fat under my chin that I've had since I was in my twenties no matter how thin I was and wanted it sucked-out. He explained to me that it was a muscle. Well, all i can say is I now look 10 - 15 years younger than what I am and that's no joke and constantly get compliments on how good I look for my age (i'll take any compliment). Today my double chin is no more, and my face truly looks defined and thin now. So happy with Dr. Newman and his anesthesiologist Dr. Sung. Thank you so much!

I am a 6'1 approx 210 pounds male. I used to exercise regularly and was basically born with a six pack I still have today (to a slightly lesser degree). I have not worked out in just over three years. However, my previous decades of dedication to fitness has helped me retain some definition. Additionally, I take high quality vitamin regiment on a daily basis, which support my hormone levels and metabolism.

I developed love handles and a slight pouch as I aged and stopped working out. From the rear you can see the small spare tire (or love handles) I now carry. I decided to be proactive and researched various options excluding liposuction.

Initially Cool Sculpting caught my eye about a year ago. I viewed this as a viable option at the time and decided to wait until after I relocated to my new state and got settled into my new job to pursue it further. A year after the move I began looking into options again and came across Vanquish Me. I work in the tech industry so the science of Vanquish made sense and looked even less invasive than Cool Sculpting. Additionally, a much larger area is treated in one sitting. I called and spoke with a woman named Lisa in the San Mateo office who was very kind and informative.

A few days ago I went in for my first Vanquish session. The day before the procedure, I purchased a gallon of water and drank about 100 of the 128 ounces, which is nearly half of my numerical body weight. They took excellent care of me throughout the process. I pointed out to the doctor my concerns about the width of my waist and the machine not hitting the back area. They addressed my concerns by conducting a session with me laying on my back for a time Then they turned me over on my stomach for additional time. Windy oversaw the procedure and was a great conversationalist during the entire session. She was also was extremely meticulous in the placement of the device, which I definitely appreciate. She often inquired if the heat felt even and she kept an eye on the equipment. As the energy penetrated it felt like an electric blanket on a low-to-medium setting.

When the session ended Windy suggested I massage the areas, drink plenty of fluids, and at a minimum take a brisk walk. I did all three. After just one session my stomach is noticeably flatter and my love handles are smaller. Best of all the skin around these areas is tighter. I couldn't believe the quick results and found myself grabbing my sides and midsection throughout the rest of the evening just to ensure I was not imagining this. I still have more fat to treat but I am very pleased with the outcome thus far. I think flipping me over for additional time made a difference versus treating the areas from the front only. Also, being in residual shape from my previous workout activity likely played a role as most of my unwanted fat is subcutaneous, not visceral.

After seeing these results I ordered a Sweet Sweat waist trimmer belt on Amazon. I intend to exercise in it to augment this process. I may mention this to the Doctor's office as an item they might consider selling, giving, or suggesting to their patients. Suggest not wearing it until a few days after the session.

I am scheduled to have a total of three sessions. I think I will only have two, take a one or two month break allowing my body to completely normalize, then come back for one or two additional sessions. I will ask the doctor his thoughts. I think this is a pragmatic approach. I have heard of individuals having as many as six consecutive sessions in as many weeks, which I view as somewhat extreme. Another issue with that approach is persons requiring six sessions may not be in the best condition, which slows recovery. They may consider taking more time for their body to recover and/or normalize between sets. Taking a break such as I intend to do may be more useful for them than for people like myself who may be in a bit better shape. Try two or three sessions. Take a month or two break. Then reassess.

Additionally, this procedure will dissolve subcutaneous fat that is in front of your ab muscles. However, it will not treat visceral fat behind your ab muscles.

CON: The day after the first session. I felt a light sensation around the treated area, almost like a slight itch or tingle under my skin. Nothing major at all. By day two or three the sensation passed.

TIPS: Buy two, one-gallon jugs of water. Drink one and one-half the day before and day of the session, prior to the session. Drink the other one and one half gallons following the session and the day after. Use that water in whatever you drink such as tea as well as drinking it directly to know how much water you are drinking.

Buy the Sweet Sweat belt. Do not wear within two days before and after a session.

After the first session try the 14 Day Colon Cleanse, but only do it for up to one week. 1 capsule a night for 3 days. 2 caps a night for 1 or 2 days (keep a toilet handy). 1 cap for 1 additional day. Stop.

I had the noninvasive Vanquish fat burning procedure. Based on my experience, Dr. Newman is a pleasant individual. He quickly gauged my level of understanding about the procedure and did not waste time telling me things he felt I already knew. I work in the tech field so I completely understood the mechanics behind a resonant RF frequency used in the fat burning process. He also talked a little bit about other options and the pros and cons. The staff was very polite and friendly. Lisa is the first person I spoke with. She puts the "sweet" in "heart". Dr. Newman's assistant, Windy, is beyond attentive, professional, and charming. As stated earlier, she was very meticulous in the placement of the RF transmitter over my torso. Although I am former military and don't break easily, she frequently expressed concern for my comfort as she adjusted the table I was laying on for maximum exposure and efficiency. She stayed with me the entire time. You can hear the passion in her voice when discussing health related topics. Bottom line, although I was simply one of hundreds of patients they see over time, they made me feel like I mattered from the moment I called to inquire about the procedure. I did not feel like I was a face in the crowd waiting for someone to call out "Next!" DETAILS: I am a 6'1 approx 210 pounds male.

The best doctor in the Bay. Dr. Newman is very conservative with his Botox and fillers. Have recommended him to a few of my friends and they were all very happy with his work.

I've been going to Premier Plastic Surgery for 15 years now. Dr Newman is amazing! He's done many procedures for me, mostly botox and fillers. I have had some very effective laser treatments from him as well over the years. I'm embarrassed I can never remember the names of them however, I am always VERY happy with my results. If you tell him you read my review, let him know he has my permission to tell you which ones :). In addition to being a great Dr, he's also a really nice man with a wonderful bedside manner.

I also need to give a shout out to Dr Newman's amazing Esthetician Elicia Guerrero! Over the years she has performed various body treatments (like Velashape) and peels on my face. When I googled velashape and velasmooth I read reviews from people saying how painful this type of treatment is. When I go to Elicia it feels good, almost like a warm massage and again I am happy with my results. I also have to say, she is super cool and goes with your mood. If you want to engage in conversation, she participates and is fun to chat with. If you're feeling quiet or sleepy she lets you relax. She does a great job reading her clients and lets them take the lead (I hope my chatty dental hygienist is reading this) on the social aspect of the visit. She does great work and is clearly talented in her field. I love her!

Windy, Karen and the entire staff are great too!

Dr. Newman and his nurse Christina are as professional and personable as you can get. His office staff, Windy in particular, are the perfect support for this team. I had Dr. Sung was the anesthesiologist and he was right up to the standards of this practice. It took me almost wo years to convince myself that I wanted to do both the bilateral blepharoplasty and lower facelift, and I only wish I had done it sooner. THANK YOU ALL!!! Results were perfect and practically painless. Yes really!

Dr. Newman is the BEST hands down. I've been a patient of his for several years now and he always does amazing work. I like to be very conservative with my procedures- Botox, filler, and IPL. I have recommended him to several of my close friends and everyone loves his work. His staff is super friendly and knowledgeable, they make you feel comfortable right away. I love Windy and Elicia too. I've had microdermabrasion facials by Elicia and she's fantastic. My skin feels and looks so vibrant after I leave. I can't say enought wonderful things about Dr. Newman. If you are looking for a facial plastic surgeon, look no further.

Appointment staff today is personable and friendly, I really appreciate the time the gal spent with me bouncing back and forth from the Palo Alto and San Mateo schedules, to provide me with the time I requested to ensure I avoid the traffic on my way home from Sacramento. My office consultation with Dr. Newman was great today. I'm always looking for something to tighten my skin. Doctor provided me with a great plan and I can't wait for my BodyTite procedure in the winter. Due to the compression garment me and 100 degree weather won't be happy. Love the fact that he has a ton of integrity and years of knowledge on cosmetic procedures and a great demeanor. Thank You Dr. Newman for your time today, see you in winter πŸ˜€ Delete review

Friendly and accommodating staff, nice office. Dr. Newman is extremely talented and skillful in his use of various modalities. I had a reduction of upper arm fat and facial contouring with minimally invasive procedures and injections, and could not be happier with the results. Dr. Newman was friendly, down to earth and genuinely interested in helping me look my best. I recommend him heartily.

Dr Newman and his staff recently performed an eyelid lift for my upper lids . Amazing difference it is without others actually noticing exactly why I look more alert and slightly younger . Perfect job and my first time seeing a plastic surgeon

Dr Newman is very easy going and patient , making for an excellent plastic surgeon

The procedure was less painful than having a shot from my dentist

Dr. Newman is an excellent plastic surgeon, I'm so happy I found his practice! Both my mom and my aunt have been to him for years for small and big procedures so a few months ago I came to Dr. Newman because both of them were super happy with his work. I was very nervous but Dr. Newman calmed my nerves and listen to exactly what I wanted and I couldn't be happier with the results! I wanted a conservative treatment and his work was exactly what I wanted - better even than I could have imagined. And the ladies at the front desk are so sweet and very knowledgeable if you have any questions - special shoutout to Wendy for all your help!

Dr. Newman....the only doctor I would ever see....Simply the best!!
I went in for a silhouette procedure (mid cheek lift), amazing results and simple recovery.
within 3 days, you'd never know that I had anything done. Zero bruising as I followed his instructions exactly as he and his staff told me too! My girlfriend had a face lift with Dr. Newman last year...the girl looks 10 years younger and she healed beautifully & quite quickly!
Amazing!

I've seen other doctors results and they do not compare to Dr. Newman!
Warm and caring along with his staff!
