SK Plastic Surgery, a premier destination for plastic surgery and laser treatments in Southern California, is the practice of Steve S. Kim, MD, PhD. Our reputable Beverly Hills plastic surgeon is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, and one of few practitioners in the region to hold both MD and PhD distinctions.

Dr. Kim's meticulous skill, artistic vision, and attention to detail - coupled with his sincere, open style - has garnered countless praises from his patients, in addition to his fellow Los Angeles plastic surgeons.

Our Beverly Hills cosmetic surgery expert offers a comprehensive menu of aesthetic procedures. Candidates may be interested in selections such as breast augmentation, liposuction, or tummy tuck surgery; or, may perhaps benefit from Dr. Kim's most unique specialty, Asian eyelid surgery. Los Angeles-area patients who seek to attain a livelier eye appearance may wish to inquire about this procedure. For patients not of Asian descent, traditional eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) may be of interest.
