Awaken Aesthetics

So a couple of years ago I went to see Dr lou i am 115 pounds and had some extra fat. I paid for a smart lipo then I came back a few months after to do a mini tuck and more smart lipo overall the results were about 20 to 30% percent abetter except for a bulge that doctor left on my lower abdomen he said that it was fluid so he used a syringe to get some of the fluid out I came back a couple more times he said it was swollen and that it would go away, then after a couple of years I decided to go back for a consultation and he told that he would do more smart lipo and another mini tuck the receptionist came back with a cost of $ 3500,and did mention he said by doing so I would Improve 20% more. I was so upset because I just wanted him to try to fix what he started instead I get get hit with a amount of $ 3500 if I wanted to pay that all over again I would rather give my money to someone with more experience in mini tucks .I would not recommend Dr lou to anyone that needs any stomach related procedures.

I have been coming to Awaken Aesthetics for about half a year now after being referred by a friend. I must say that I am more than pleased with both my visits and my results. I started my acne treatments with Yoli and after being on the ZO products and a couple of peels, my skin is looking better than ever! It’s amazing how far my skin has come these past months and it’s all thanks to Yoli and her expertise. The young ladies in the front desk are also very friendly and welcoming every time I visit. Thank you! :D

My husband Dean and I researched numerous doctors in the LA area regarding my husband procedure and met with 3 doctors to get different opinions. Dr Sheu was by far the most honest, sincere and took the most time to explain every aspect of the procedure. He was the only one that advised me against a technique that would have broken cartilage and bone to complete the procedure. While the other doctors were great, Dr Sheu was the only one that gave us the direct and honest truth of the expectations. His communication pre and post op was amazing. The results were perfect and would never change a thing. If you are considering corrective rhinoplasty surgery, Dr Sheu is the best. Thanks Doc!

I was looking for a good aesthetician, and came to see Yoli who came highly recommended. I was thrilled with the results of my facial! She used great products, and I loved that she did extractions that were super easy with no pain at all! My face looked brighter, smoother, and cleaner than it did in a long time. The facial made me feel confident to not have to wear make up! I will be coming regularly to have the facials be part of my anti-​aging regimen. Thankful I found Yoli. She’s my new go-​to person!

Dr. Alex Liu is the absolute BEST plastic surgeon! Not only is he extremely patient and caring, but he is very ethical as well. I visited Dr. Liu first for a consultation in July 2013 because I wasn’t very happy with my eyelids from the previous DST. Dr. Liu always took the time to listen to all my questions and concerns. And, he aims to accomplish what you want to achieve in a safe and artistic manner. After every procedure, Dr. Liu always calls to make sure that everything is going well. His staff is amazing and extremely funny too! Dr. Alex Liu has my highest recommendation and I would recommend him to anyone! :) Thanks Dr. Liu! I am a VERY VERY happy patient!

Dr. Alex Liu has my highest recommendation if you are looking for an exceptional, caring, and ethical plastic/​cosmetic surgeon.
He is an experienced board certified Oculoplastic surgeon, a specialist on eyelid and facial procedures with additional knowledge of eyelid anatomy than a general plastic surgeon. I’m glad I placed my trust in his hands after extensive research.
I recently underwent an upper eyelid surgery performed on one eye. My eyes appeared uneven due to lack of crease on my right eyelid, so Dr. Liu created a crease (unilateral full incision Asian blepharoplasy) to correct the asymmetry. The surgery went smoothly, and the procedure virtually painless other than the initial prick of local anesthesia. He kept me informed throughout the procedure, and his post-​op communication and availability is commendable.
My right eye is healing well, and the result is excellent. The outcome looks so natural without makeup that my friends comment how great I look without knowing exactly «why». I wink at myself (and my matching eyes) when I look in the mirror!

I went to Dr. Liu in January 2014 for eyelid surgery. He referred me to a doctor within his medical building to document this procedure for my insurance. Weeks went by and did not hear from his office. I called to see if pictures were needed. They said they will ask the doctor. Weeks wen by and I did not hear from them. Then, 2 months later, I received a letter from my insurance indicating that the have denied the claim because I did not meet the criteria. I decided to appeal and called my insurance. They told me that the case has been closed. They told me that they sent a letter to doctor Liu for him to call to discuss the procedure. Well, he never call my insurance and they decided to close the case. What bothers me is that the doctor nor his office never call me. I don’t know if his staff did not inform him that he needed to call my insurance or he was «Too Busy» to call. I emailed him informing him of my disappointment and let him know that I would never go back to his practice. I will take my insurance advice and schedule an appointment with another doctor.

Dr Liu and Nikki Darlak are the BEST! The staff are really extremely nice. If you need any procedure or facials Awaken Cosmetics is the number 1 spot to go.
