State-of-the-Art Care at The Aesthetic Institute

Adjacent to our Torrance plastic surgery center, you’ll find The Aesthetic Institute. This beautiful, modern facility houses a fully Quad A-accredited operating room with features and technology customized specifically for cosmetic and reconstructive surgery procedures.

Of the 10,000-plus surgeries performed by our surgeons, more than 2,500 have been completed at The Aesthetic Institute.

Years of meticulous planning resulted in a state-of-the-art outpatient surgical center that provides a private, professional, and relaxed environment for our patients from Torrance, Long Beach, Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach, Hermosa Beach, and beyond.

A Tour of The Aesthetic Institute

Patients visiting The Aesthetic Institute for the first time appreciate the welcoming, spa-like environment that greets them. The distressed wood floors establish a natural feel and complement the bright, airy design, modern furniture, and recessed lighting.

Original artwork on the walls and stunning orchids add splashes of color. Our bright, spacious balcony provides fresh air and solitude. These elements, plus complimentary Wi-Fi, are all part of a design aimed at helping you and your loved ones feel relaxed and comfortable.

Our attentive staff will ensure that your questions are answered and all your needs are met.

Our Surgical Suite

We designed the surgical center’s operating room exclusively for cosmetic surgery procedures, with a layout that puts surgical tools and medical equipment in the best placement for our surgical team. The surgical suite features advanced medical technology that meets or exceeds the strictest nationally accepted safety standards. The range of anesthesia options includes using a local anesthetic, with or without IV sedation, or a general anesthetic.

Our surgical facility shares the same building as our plastic surgery center in Torrance, where our plastic surgeons provide comprehensive consultations. The building is quiet and private, setting a relaxed tone for each visit. Parking is free and convenient via the parking lot surrounding our building.

While hospitals routinely treat sick people, we only perform surgery on healthy patients at our private surgical center. This policy ensures better surgical outcomes and greatly reduces the possibility of infection.

Every surgical procedure involves a board-certified anesthesiologist who contacts patients prior to their procedure. Pain management protocols are designed to minimize reliance on opioids, including the use of EXPAREL® during surgery to reduce post-operative discomfort. 

Recovery Room

Our experienced and highly trained nurses continually monitor patients in the recovery rooms following surgery. Staff members respond immediately to address patients’ requests or concerns. The recovery rooms feature new equipment and fully adjustable beds.

Your Surgery Options

Our plastic surgeons have built a reputation for clinical excellence, natural results, and a standard of care that attracts patients from throughout the nation and world, most frequently for breast procedures, many who are referred by word of mouth. 

They are supported by an exceptional team that includes our nurses and other medical professionals. Every member of our team specializes in plastic surgery treatment and care.

Reviews by our real patients speak to the professionalism and compassion we strive to provide to everyone who visits us. You can expect nothing less than the best when you’re in our care.

We offer a range of cosmetic and reconstructive breast enhancement procedures, surgical body contouring, and facial rejuvenation.

Our surgeons also specialize in cosmetic surgery for patients who have lost a significant amount of weight. We accept post-bariatric and higher-BMI patients with enhanced preoperative screening protocols, performing procedures for patients with a BMI over 32 in a hospital setting with cardiology clearance and additional bloodwork.
