Dr. Pan and her staff are wonderful!! She was the most welcoming doctor I’ve ever met!!! I was extremely nervous going into my breast augmentation procedure, but she told me exactly what she was going to do and listened to exactly what I wanted! I am beyond thrilled with my results, they look supernatural and beautiful – I’ve received so many compliments and the recovery process was very smooth! I can’t recommend this place enough!!! Thank you, Dr. Pan and the entire Esana staff!

I would strongly recommend the team at Esana to take care of any if your plastic surgery needs. I had a complicated case. Nevertheless, Dr. Pan and her team provided excellent service and care. I was well informed and cared for at each step of the process, especially throughout my post operative care. My results were better than anticipated. My surgery provided the jump start I needed for overall health improvement. I’m grateful to have found Dr. Pan.

Dr. Pan is an exceptional plastic surgeon! I appreciate her professionalism and honesty. I had a tummy tuck with muscle repair. I’ll let her work speak for itself. I had a whole piece typed up and accidentally closed it without posting it! If you have any questions, please reach out and I will answer them to the best of my ability according to my experience alone. She is very kind, understanding, and very realistic. She gives you the options and formula to get what you want, how you prepare, and mix the ingredients is all up to you. She will not sell you services for personal or financial gain. Pain management is key, but bearable without prescriptions after the first few days. Definitely not needed during week two. I underestimated the recovery process. It is a long recovery, but with a fantastic support system I did amazing. I am happy with my decision.

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!

5’4” and 135lbs from a 32A (maybe B) to a 34D to DD
At 38 years old…after 4 children…. Significant weight-loss and prior tummy tuck I finally decided to get my breasts done. I had Significant drooping and sagging (effects of weight loss and breastfeeding neither of which I regret). I went with the ideal implant because it made me feel safer that it was saline but had the more natural feel. I ended Up with 540cc along with a full lift. I was afraid of losing nipple sensation but honestly, I’m more sensitive even now a year later than ever. I will Say for those of you considering which to go with…. Larger sizes like this don’t seem to feel quite as natural and if that’s important to you…. You may want to lean toward a silicone option. Just my opinion.
Dr Pan and her staff were so warm helpful and patient. I did have a minor complication, but it was my body doing its thing and healing. I will only see them in the future I will never go elsewhere.

Dr Pan is amazing she makes you feel comfortable and she is compassionate. She is extremely attentive and easy to talk and I felt comfortable asking her questions. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to have any surgery. Her and her staff call and check in on you after surgery and are only a phone call or text message away if you have any issues or concerns.
