I went to Esana to meet with Dr. Pan after we had an online consultation. I researched many plastic surgeons in CT/NY prior. She went over all of my options that would be best for me. I followed her suggestions for my body type and the look I was trying to achieve. She made me feel 100% confident she was the surgeon for me. I am only about a week out and the whole process and recovery has been amazing. Everyone is different recovery wise, but I have to say I feel amazing already and I’m loving the results I’m seeing. Alyssa her PA is also amazing caring and attentive. Susan in the office was very responsive anytime I had questions. The whole team has made this process so easy. I would recommend Dr. Pan and her team to anyone. She it truly talented and has the best team working with her.

Not only is Dr. Pan one of the best in the industry but so is her team of professionals. From the moment I met Dr. Pan, I was confident in her to deliver the exact results I was looking for. Dr. Pan has a calm and collected bed side manner that puts you at ease. Her team is sweet, friendly and always responsive. No arrogant attitudes when you walk in just smiles and good vibes. Shout out to Michelle, one of the surgical coordinators, for answering my endless questions and always being there whenever needed. I highly recommend Dr. Pan and Esana for all of your surgical and aesthetic needs!

I have been using medical grade skincare for over 10 years. I am a working Mom in my 40’s who has always taken care of my skin. I did not think I would notice such significant change in my skin so fast!!!! My skin felt tight, smooth and was “glowing” according to my friends and even my husband!! BioSerum Firm is my new obsession!!!!! Must have
