Dr. Esther Yoonah Kim, MD

My experience with Dr. Kim has been nothing but positive! I was referred to her by two of my friends who had amazing results and I wanted the same for myself. I was so impressed with Dr. Kim and the entire staff at Advanced Institute of Plastic Surgery right from the start. They were so efficient and professional. Any questions I had were answered right away and I always felt like my well being was important to them. Dr. Kim is as kind and caring as she is intelligent and skilled in her craft. She took her time to listen to my goals with surgery and share her vast knowledge with me about what surgery and post op would be like. I am so thankful for her, my results are truly a night & day difference and I feel the best I ever have!

Dr Kim is amazing! She’s a phenomenal surgeon, she has an excellent bedside manner, extremely thorough and detail oriented and zero ego. Highly recommend her for facial plastic surgery. You won’t be disappointed!

I was referred to AI Plastic Surgery by my daughter’s godmother and I will be forever grateful! I had saline breast implants done by another surgeon 15 years ago and for 15 years I was so insecure, in pain, and my breasts looked very abnormal. I was not comfortable in a swimsuit or even being with my spouse. When Dr. Kim saw me for the first time, I was adamant on getting the implants removed and a lift at once, but Dr. Kim knew that what she saw was not normal. She suggested doing an implant removal then seeing how I felt after the removal, and if I still felt I needed a lift then to go forward with it. She knew and even said to me “you may not need a lift.” Wow, 🤩 eight months later, and I’m so grateful she made this suggestion because I didn’t even need a lift. Any other surgeon would have suggested to do both now, a removal and lift, for the money, and Dr. Kim did not. Dr. Kim cares about how you feel, and makes you feel comfortable. Dr. Kim goes above and beyond and has a true passion for what she does, and that shows through the work she does, and her true genuineness for her patients. I can tell you this, I’m more confident now, and have no more pain. If I do ever feel I need a lift I’ll be going back to Dr. Kim. Dr. Kim thank you so much for everything!

Doctor Yoonah Kim performed my face lift on August 2023 and I’m loving my results! If you are looking for a great plastic surgeon that has the best qualities and work ethics…….you will find them in Doctor Kim! She took the time to really listen and understand my needs and wants and she came up with a great plan on how to accomplish them! Doctor Kim explain in great detail everything that she felt would help achieve my expectations! Doctor Kim is an amazing doctor and a talented artist! And she has a great eye for detail! But the best qualities that I really appreciate about Doctor Kim is her joy, enthusiasm and care that goes into her work! Yolanda

Dr. Kim is so kind and she understood the results that I wanted. She was very patient with all my questions, answered everything and just made me feel really comfortable going into it. The office staff were so nice and friendly and the facility is beautiful. I’m so glad that I did this for myself. It gave me an extra boost of confidence and makes me feel so much more womanly. I’m very happy with my breast lift results.
