“Dr. Lieberman and Dr. Parikh are hands down the most talented and trustworthy surgeons in the Bay Area. I’ve had a couple different procedures over the past 5 years and have never been disappointed. They truly changed my life for the better and I can’t thank them enough.”
-S. B.
“I think I will forever be in awe looking in the mirror at my new profile – especially my nose. I have received countless compliments from friends and acquaintances, with many remarking, “You look amazing – like 20 years younger, but in a natural, refreshed way.” If you are thinking about a facial transformation, either minimal or extensive, look no farther than L&P – you won’t regret it!”
-M. C.
“I’m so grateful to Drs. Parikh and Lieberman. When I look in the mirror, I see myself the way I looked 15 years ago. I don’t look ‘different’, I just look like me again. My recommendation for anyone thinking of any facial surgery is to go see Drs. Parikh and Lieberman.”
-K.L.
“I highly recommend L&P to anyone considering facial rejuvenation. I am beyond satisfied with my results and grateful for the confidence this has given me! As a not quite 50 year old woman, my face looked a lot older than I felt which is why I finally decided to go for it.”
-C.A.
“I cannot recommend L&P Aesthetics more. I felt cared for and cared about by everyone on their staff, and my results are amazing. My friends are blown away and say my results have dispelled their reluctance about facelifts because my results look so natural. If you’re looking for top-notch surgeons, Drs. Parikh and Lieberman are who you need to go to.”
-T.N.
“Dr. Curti was incredibly kind, thorough, and candid about what to expect from the surgery. The surgery itself was a breeze, as was recovery. I am SO happy with the results. I have been to many different skincare/aesthetic offices, and while I can’t really say anything bad about any of them, I can say that L&P is the absolute gold standard.”
-J.P.
“I came from out of town for a midline neck lift and chin augmentation and I still can’t believe how amazing my results are. Dr. Parikh and Dr. Lieberman made such a difference on my profile and I couldn’t have asked for a better result. Everyone was so kind, from the first consultation appointment to my final follow up appointment. So glad I chose L&P Aesthetics for my surgery.”
-H.M.
“Can a face lift, brow, and eyelid lift surgery actually feel like a trip to a spa? Can it make you feel like you are their favorite, their only client? Like the day is only about you? If you choose L & P Aesthetic, that will be your experience. I felt not only absolutely confident in my care, but pampered and heard from start to finish.”
-J.B.
“L&P is world-class. From initial consultation call to post procedure, each touch point with the team has been full of kindness, respect and care. At every step of the way I was met with patience and reassurance in the process and aftercare. I always feel like I’m in great hands and the team genuinely has my best interests in my experience and results.”

Linda wanted to look her very best for her wedding day so she decided to go forward with a subnasal lip lift with Drs. L&P. She was so happy not to feel insecure about her lips on the big day. In fact, she said she has never felt more beautiful and confident.
Nichole found Drs. L&P through a co-worker and decided to finally go forward with the cosmetic procedures – blepharoplasty, rhinoplasty & TRL laser resurfacing – that she had always wanted to do. She felt confident that Drs. L&P would give her the look she had always wanted.
“I just felt so much better and more confident having my eyes done that I don’t know why I waited.”
When Marla learned a large piece of skin from her face would need to be removed due to skin cancer, she was scared. Her dermatologist recommended Drs. Lieberman and Parikh as skilled facial plastic surgeons, so she called and left a message. Minutes later, she was surprised when Dr. Lieberman personally returned her call to reassure her and to let her know he could remove any scar left by the Mohs Micrographic Surgery and that her face would not be altered.
While discussing the procedure with Drs. Lieberman and Parikh, Marla decided that since she had to have facial surgery, she would also something for herself, something to make herself look and feel better. Marla decided to get a blepharoplasty, a minor surgery to lift her upper eyelids to give her a brighter, more youthful appearance.
A year later, Marla is cancer free. Not only has the scar on her face completely disappeared, but she looks and feels better than ever.
“I feel so good about myself. I feel like I’m the best I can be at this point in my life.”
One day, Cherrell looked in the mirror and literally did not recognize herself. After years of caring for her children, grandchildren and aging parents, Cherrell had forgotten to take care of herself and as she says, “lost herself in the process.” Deciding to get a full face and neck lift from Drs. Lieberman and Parikh was part of Cherrell’s journey to reclaim her identity and her confidence.
“I really just wanted to look in the mirror and be happy. It has alleviated vanity in a weird way. I just look fresh, and healthy, and happy.”
After a difficult divorce, Cathy, a 51-year-old woman from Los Gatos, felt like her face had taken on all the sad emotions from the divorce process. She had never considered surgery before but after her facelift and necklift, she has a renewed self-confidence as well as outlook on her life.
“All I could think about was myself and my face. I feel like it’s really changed my confidence and it’s allowed me to be more social.”
Before her rhinoplasty, Lindsey was self-conscious about her nose and always became anxious when talking to other people. Drs. Lieberman & Parikh listened to her concerns and helped her understand what she could expect from the surgery.
Now, Lindsey says she doesn’t even think about her nose anymore and is thrilled with her rhinoplasty results.
“Even my hairdresser couldn’t figure out why I had more hair. There was no scar, no evidence of the transplant and I didn’t say anything. It’s still a mystery to her.”
Andrew always had thick hair, but when he got cancer in his 30s, the chemotherapy and radiation stunted his hair growth and he never fully regained his hair. His new appearance, with a receding hairline and large bald patch on the top of his head, greatly affected his self-esteem. After doing online research, Andrew chose Drs. Lieberman & Parikh because of their credentials and training, and scheduled two hair transplants at their San Francisco-area practice. It’s still too early to see the full results of the second hair transplant, but he is thrilled with the results from the first, as you can see from the before and after photos here.
“I came to Drs. Lieberman & Parikh because I liked their team approach, and I felt confident in their ability to provide natural-looking results.”
Becky visited Drs. Lieberman and Parikh at their Bay Area practice three months before her son was to get married. She wanted to look her absolute best for the big day, but was concerned that she didn’t have enough time to get a facelift and go through the healing process. After calling several of Drs. Lieberman & Parikh’s patients, she was reassured that she would really like the way she looked in about eight weeks. And it turned out to be true. At the wedding, Becky felt that she looked radiant and rested and as good as she possibly could.
“The procedure didn’t really change the way I look. It made me look fresher, rested, and took maybe 15 years away.”
Melissa has been active all her life, but as the years went on, she began to feel that her face didn’t match the way she felt inside. The problem areas, as she described them, were throughout her cheeks and under her chin. Also, there were lines and wrinkles forming that she didn’t like. Melissa chose Drs. Lieberman & Parikh because they operate together at their San Francisco-area practice and both specialize in the face and neck. She felt, from the moment she met the doctors, that she could trust them to listen to her concerns and provide the results she wanted. Now, a few years after her procedures, Melissa is so happy that she had the work done and feels that she has “never looked better.”
Ali wasn’t ready for a lower facelift yet but she wanted a more defined jawline and neck area. When she came to Drs. L&P, they recommended the latest and most effective nonsurgical face and neck tightening device on the market, FaceTite / NeckTite. Ali is thrilled with her results.
“What made me comfortable choosing Drs. Lieberman & Parikh is that they specialize in facial plastic surgery, so I felt like if they can reconstruct someone’s whole face, they would do a great job with filler. And it’s true – with Drs. Lieberman & Parikh, you’re going to look bomb.”
Dasha has always been gorgeous, but when she started her modeling career, she realized there were some slight adjustments she wanted to make to her face to enhance her natural beauty.
Since meeting Dr. Parikh several years ago, Dasha has become a regular at L&P Aesthetics. She receives dermal fillers, lip filler as well as Dermalinfusion to keep her skin on point. Check out her stories here:
“I always want to feel like the true me, but I’m getting older, and let’s be honest – we can all use a little help sometimes. L&P Aesthetics compliments what I do at home to make me look and feel my best.”
Yan-Yan, a working mom of two kids, eats well and works-out regularly with her husband. She loves the way she looks but as she wants to keep looking great throughout her life. In addition to taking great care of her skin with medical-grade skincare products, Yan-Yan receives regular facials and chemical peels from the aestheticians at L&P Aesthetics.
“Drs. Lieberman and Parikh are simply the best. Not only are they incredible at what they do, but they are just really good guys. I really appreciate their honesty in regards to setting expectations and sharing their vision for natural looking results. I love that they are my trusted resource aging gracefully.”
Heather found L&P Aesthetics while researching the best rhinoplasty surgeons. She ended up getting her nose done with Drs. Lieberman & Parikh and remembers a surreal feeling when her cast came off and she saw that her nose looked exactly how she had imagined.
Since then, Heather has been coming to the nonsurgical providers at L&P Aesthetics for Dermal Fillers, Halo Hybrid laser treatments, BBL Forever Young, Microneedling and regular Dermal Infusions. To her, the maintenance is worth it because she doesn’t feel pressure to wear so much make up and she feels more confident now that she looks like the refreshed version of herself she wants the world to see.
“These doctors are the BEST at what they do! I’ve read a lot of stories about people going to a plastic surgeon for a routine procedure and coming back a complete mess, so I was terrified of having a new doctor work on my face. However, Dr. Parikh knows what he’s talking about and doesn’t push you into crazy solutions but recommends ways to slowly get the results you’re looking for.”
Roop came to L&P Aesthetics before her engagement party because she didn’t want to feel self-conscious about the dark circles under her eyes during her wedding season. She said that Dr. Parikh was especially helpful because he explained why she was seeing the dark circles and what she could do to slowly improve them.
After her initial treatment with dermal filler in her eye troughs, she immediately started getting compliments about how alive and awake she was looking. And at her engagement party and on her wedding day, she said she felt totally unselfconscious and happy with looking like herself.
