The team at Esana is incredible! Dr. Pan is compassionate, professional, knowledgeable and makes you feel totally at ease. She also does beautiful work and is an incredibly skilled surgeon. I felt comfortable with her from the first day and always felt like I could ask questions, whether it was on the phone or in the office. And the estheticians are all just as wonderful! I can’t imagine going anywhere else!

From the scheduling, right through my post operative appointments, Dr. Pan and her staff are excellent! Nurse Jessica is awesome! She gave me excellent tips to help along with my tummy tuck recovery. Dr. Pan, as always, just remarkable. Her calm demeaner relaxed me, I have an adorable new belly button and my surgical scar is thin and already flattened after 9 weeks. I highly recommend Esana!

I finally decided to have boobs : ) always wanted them, but was scared of: 1. Surgery, 2. Possible Side effects, 3. Complications.
But… I decided to take the risk. I’ve had two kids, breastfed them both total of 3,5 years (but I was always flat chested)
My height 5’2″
Breast size 30/32 AA – A
Breast width: 11,5-12
I’m choosing mentor moderate profile plus 225 or 250cc will make final decision of the day of surgery which is tomorrow!
I chose Dr Deborah Pan. She’s amazing, warm, easygoing, knowledgeable. I felt like I could talk to her about everything. She introduced me to subfascial breast argumentation, I did my research on it (read medical journals, not a lot of doctors in the US perform them) and it is the best way to go for someone like me- personal trainer, who loves active lifestyle and weight lifting.
Updated on 3 Feb 2021:
I was so nervous!!! But an entire team was amazing. Everyone put me at ease. I told dr Pan to pick size on the operating table either 225c or 250cc whatever will look best and most natural on me 🙂
She did 225cc!!! I literally just got back home 🙂 I will see them for the first time in two days. Post op is on Thursday
Updated on 3 Feb 2021:
Feeling great. Resting. Dr Pan did subfascial augmentation. Which means I’m not in crazy amount of pain. I’m only taking Tylenol for pain managment. The most challenging thing is sleeping on my back 🙂
Updated on 4 Feb 2021:
Bandages are off. Feeling so much better! 225cc everything looks good
Updated on 21 Feb 2021:
This is what they look like when I’m flexing my chest muscles (under fascia placement) and how firm they still are at week 3. But they are getting softer every single day and I feel the difference.
Updated on 16 Mar 2021:
I’m really happy with my results. They feel comfy, soft, I like the way they look. I’m working out a little, stretching my chest muscles daily. I love my progress

Dr. Pan is an excellent surgeon. I was extremely pleased with the results of my reconstructive surgery and the post-surgery care by Dr. Pan. Her office staff are also excellent…very caring and helpful. The care I received made a very stressful and traumatic time in my life much easier to cope with.

I have been a patient at Esana plastic surgery for a couple of years now. Every visit of mine has been the best I could hope for. Dr. Pan is absolutely amazing. All the treatments I have had have delivered the results I hoped for. In addition, it’s always a pleasure to be greeted so nicely by the front office reception. They always make me feel so welcome. The office, the doctors, support staff and nurses are just amazing, and I recommend this place to anybody who is reading my review.

I have hereditary dark circles under my eyes, but as I’ve gotten older, they’re getting much more pronounced. I haven’t always had the hollows, but they’ve seemed to come with aging too. I’ve had doctors assume I had allergies (which can cause dark circles), kids ask why it’s so dark under my eyes, people think I’m tired… all of it. After looking up dermal fillers on Real Self, it seemed worth a shot!
