Patient Testimonials
“Before I decided to have my facelift, I read articles and books, watched television shows, and knew that the reason for having the surgery was for myself; To correct things I didn’t like when I looked in the mirror. There really wasn’t a lot – just those parentheses’ around my nose and mouth that seemed to be getting deeper and sagging more. I didn’t want to look thirty again – I just wanted to look good for sixty.
I met with one plastic surgeon who began our consultation by listing the things he could “fix” while he was doing what I wanted. Apparently I was a mess. I thanked him and left. Aside from the fact that I didn’t feel that I should be seen in public, I really wasn’t looking forward to another consultation.
Then we met with Dr. Steve Laverson and I knew immediately things would be different. Joanne and Annette in the front office set the tone – They are warm and welcoming. When the consultation began, Dr. Laverson asked what he could do for me. He wanted to know my expectations. He asked my husband if he felt comfortable with the procedures he was describing. He spent time explaining everything and made sure all our questions were answered. He is meticulous and that concern continues throughout all post-op visits.
Obviously, what I wanted first and foremost was a competent surgeon – this was my face! What I got was so much more. An amazing surgeon who is truly gentle and compassionate. One who knows how to offer a suggestion. One who knew what I wanted and did his absolute best to make it happen and each time I look in the mirror I am truly grateful to him.”

“You can find me under Breast Augmentation, case #7. I have to say in capital letters because I am screaming with excitement… THAT DR. LAVERSON IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST IN WHAT HE DOES!!!! He is not your typical plastic surgeon who will do anything and everything a patient walks in and asks for (trust me I know. I’ve been to a place that said yes yes yes) and then I went to see Dr. Laverson and he informed me by saying, “no that may not be the ideal way to go about in what you would like because it will leave you with this and that”). That’s what I appreciate about Dr. L. He truly takes the time to listen to his patients wants and will give an honest professional opinion if what you are asking for will give you the results you would be happiest with. There’s no pressure from Dr. L as well. When you’re ready…. he’s ready! I love that! I came in to see Dr. L because I wanted my breasts to look like they did prior to my two children. I told Dr. L, “You’re the expert, I don’t care what size you put in, the ONLY thing I want is that when I wake up it looks AS NATURAL AS YOU CAN GET IT!” When I woke up… I was more than pleased with the results Dr. L gave me!!!!
I have no problems telling people I’ve had an augmentation done, and I definitely don’t leave out who my Dr. is!!!!! P.S…. NO, this is not a false testimony or a paid testimony… this is an honest testimony from a 150% completely satisfied client!!!! Much love to you Dr. L and the rest of your team!!!! As we say in Hawai’i….. A hui hou! (until we meet again!)”

“I have not been in a size 10 since my 20’s, I went down 6 pant sizes. I threw away all my big girl panties and bought bikini underwear. I’m going on a vacation and am buying a two piece swimsuit. I have not worn one since I was 21.”

“My daughter, who had her tummy tuck with another well known plastic surgeon, looks like she had surgery. Dr. Laverson made me look like I have been going to the gym.”

“I feel beautiful! I used to hate looking at myself. Now I love to look in the mirror. Even when I am tired I look good. Everyone is asking me about how great I look. I am sooo happy!”

“Choosing a plastic surgeon, for even the most minor procedures, can be intimidating and challenging. Dr. Laverson and his staff were unpretentious, spent plenty of time with me explaining and answering questions, reviewing options, and giving me great advice. There was never any pressure to book the procedure or a sales pitch to upsell to an additional service like so many other offices I visited. I felt comfortable every step of the way, and have a fantastic result. I have highly recommended Dr. Laverson to many of my friends from those wanting to remove a few lines to those wanting a complete make-over. Dr. Laverson’s work is always natural looking and never “plastic.”

“I had my four year old at 40. I guess you can do the math to see how old I really am! I never thought I would be considered beautiful again. I was skeptical of doing this show because it would let the world see how fat and out of shape I had become. I was thrilled as I started to lose the weight but noticed that my face just deflated. I mean, my former cheek bones were gone, my lips were thin and my jaw line was lumpy. I hate to say it, but I looked terrible. It was a hard pill to swallow after being on the cover of Playboy and being considered beautiful for so many years. To know that I was no longer pretty and in fact, moving toward downright unattractive, was a harsh reality. Then, I met Dr. Laverson. I have to say, he is one of the nicest men I have ever met. I let him know my concerns about an actual face lift and told him that I wanted to do everything I could without resorting to such drastic measures in my forties. I wasn’t sure that it could be done. To his credit, Dr. Laverson did not fill my head with dreams of perfection. Instead, he was honest and clear about what he could do and couldn’t do without a face lift. I chose to do the fillers, botox, lipo on my jaw line and the lasers, which were amazing!!! I highly recommend the CO2 Laser – it zapped the wrinkles right off my face. After years of sun worship as a red head, I thought those wrinkles were permanent. Dr. Laverson is an expert with this laser and you can rest assured that he knows what he is doing. The entire experience was rewarding. Dr. Laverson did such an incredible job that I can actually go back to work.
Dr. Laverson at Feel Beautiful has won a patient for life. I’ll be going in for touch ups as long he’ll have me as a patient!”

“In over 12 years of having Botox, Dr. Laverson not only delivered the best results, but with far less product significantly saving me money. Unlike other physicians who responded to my concerns by recommending invasive surgery, he suggested a filler. With his genuine and unique gentle nature, I trusted his discretion and the results have removed at least 15 years off of my face with none of the bruising I’ve experienced in the past. I can not express the depth of my gratitude for his skill, his office staff, and concern for my well-being. The neck-lift I desire will be able to be done now that I have found Dr. Laverson.”

“I cannot thank you enough for everything you did Dr. Laverson. The ladies at the gym had so many questions regarding my tummy tuck. Once I showed them what my new stomach looks like their jaws dropped! They were very impressed! The other day I was sitting down and normally I would have a “tire” of skin laying on my thighs, but this time when I looked down it was not there and I actually started to cry. You are a miracle worker and I thank you!”

“Just wanted to say a BIG, HUGE THANK YOU to all of you, and especially my beloved Doctor Steve!!! My life is 10 times better, I LOVE THE NEW ME!!
All of my friends, family, and even complete strangers tell me: Wow! You look amazing and beautiful! Your Doctor did such a great job; I have been asked the question so many times that I have a rehearsed little speech I say that goes like this… Answer: Well thank you very much for your compliments, and yes, my Doc sure did do a good job! He’s so smart and I got so lucky to have found him. And I didn’t even know until after my surgery was scheduled and I had paid, that he is proclaimed as one of the 10 TOP Plastic Surgeons in the entire country!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart! DR STEVE ROCKS! Love always.”
