I am glad I went back to Cara after 7 years. I recently decided to try Cara again for a laser treatment. The procedure is called Meen ( not sure how to spell). Nurse Angela changed my perspective about Cara. She was so attentive and considerate about my concerns and she took great care to address my concern areas. I knew from my first meeting with Nurse Angela that I was under a good care. I always look forward to my treatment session with her. After 5 sessions, my pores are smaller and my skin is brighter. If there are any areas for improvement for Cara, I would like to mention that the skin

First time here. The center is clean and beautifully decorated. The front staff is polite and helpful. I received Botox from Nurse Alice. She was so thorough and gave a great consultation before treatment. I have a feeling I will be staying with Alice. She listened to my concerns and gave a professional opinion for treatment. She was kind a took her time was sensitive to my pain while being injected. 5 stars

I've been wanting a rhinoplasty for several years now and finally decided to go through with it! I called 8 different plastic surgery centers between LA, OC, and SD. I had the best first impression over a phone consult with Julie at CARA, which led me to booking an in-person consult with the doctor. I had phone/virtual consults with other doctors/surgery centers that just spat out pricing info without wanting to get to know me and what my desires were, which was concerning to me. The entire staff here has been so friendly and helpful, I also appreciate how Julie emails me back quickly whenever

Although there are many inconvenience factors due to the recent epidemic, the technology of this store is definitely recognized. The main thing is that their customer service staff are very polite and will be very patient to introduce things to you. The effect after finishing it is very good.

Great service and care all around.
I'm so satisfied with my results. Everyone is so nice and efficient.
I read reviews complaining for consultation and prices before going to this office but I gave them a try since most reviews were good.
My first visit with consultant Julie, she was very honest, knowledgeable, caring and sweet. She always tells the truth. It worth it than any other clinics. And I got treatment that really helped, it was not a waste of money.
Also staffs are nice and friendly, Nurses are very informative.
I definitely come back here for another treatment

This if for acne scare! Thank you Dr Khang for Kenalog injections! Did a perfect amount. Have a few more session to go. This is before photo and will post after photos when my results are fully healed.


My issue: acne issue was I have had these skin colored, raised bumps on my nose now for a while over 10 years now as they were left behind from large pimples/acne. These bumps are not bothersome at all nor painful just aesthetic unpleasing.

My review is based in a consultation not services. I had a very underwhelming consultation for my son and I yesterday. I was looking forward to booking facials for the two of us, acne and anti-aging. But getting information was like pulling teeth! I had to drive the whole consult by asking questions about treatments and options! The person was so passive! She even told me to wait 2 years before treating my sons skin as there was no point since he still had acne and hormones! What?? Of course there are things that can be done! Now my son won't consider it and I'm annoyed. As for my skin

My mom had eye bag surgery a month ago and she's so happy with the result. She's from out of state so she couldn't come for her one month follow up but hopefully she can make to 3 month check up.
All the staff are very nice, they answered all of our questions in a professional, personable and attentive manners. We can't thank you enough to Dr. kahng!!

This is review is for consultation only. I was met by the office manager who went over the spiel about the treatment costs and other basic questions I already knew and/or could research online. Basically I could have gotten all this info over the phone. It was a waste of my time. Unlike my other consultations in different clinics, I wasn't met by the doctor which I found odd.

This place is probably good but I won't be returning there for my treatments.

Love this place! I get my lips injected by the head nurse Vanessa, and omg I must say she is amazing! She's so funny and makes me feel comfortable when injecting! Totally numbs you my mouth and I don't feel a thing. She's very knowledgeable in her field and answers all questions and concerns. The staff is very friendly and great at keeping in touch with future appointments. Thank you so much Vanessa!

I was very hesitant and indecisive before coming in for my consultation with Dr. Kahng. But he was very professional and kindly answered my questions. Unlike any other doctors, he answered my questions thoroughly making sure I understood whatever information he gave me. It made me feel very safe and welcomed. I ended up getting the breast augmentation the following month. Throughout my whole follow up, he was very attentive and patient with all the concerns I had after the procedure, too!
All my follow ups were located at the new office in San Gabriel. It's very nicely renovated! Very clean and
