After hearing from my best friend about the amazing breast augmentation that Dr. Steven Williams…read moreperformed on her (December of 2025), I felt compelled to consult with him about revising my post-breast cancer reconstruction. From my very first interaction with the practice, I was impressed by their commitment to exceptional patient care. Living outside of California, I met with Dr. Williams multiple times via telehealth to meticulously plan my surgery. He was consistently upbeat, realistic, and impressively knowledgeable. This was to be my third breast reconstruction revision with implants. Although my previous revision was not bad, achieving aesthetic perfection in breast reconstruction is nearly impossible, which makes the goal of improvement challenging. I also needed the internal pockets that hold the implants to be restructured so they would not flip over when I sleep on my side. The implant exchange surgery went smoothly, and I felt very well cared for there. It even smelled nice inside the surgical suite, located right next to the Tri Valley clinic. Even though I understood that everything went without a hitch, I made the hasty mistake of peeking underneath the bandages. This caused a moment of panic and ensuing distress. I'm embarrassed to share this because my professional expertise used to be treating people with Body Dysmorphic Disorder. Nevertheless, in those weeks following the surgery, I experienced significant dysmorphia about my breasts...severe dysmorphia to be totally honest. I perceived my breasts as positioned too close together and saw distortion on one side. Dr. Williams met with me earlier than our scheduled follow-up to address my pressing concerns. During our meeting, he was exceptionally reassuring and informative, explaining that all my concerns would gradually resolve themselves. With his charisma, reassurance, and sincerity, the good doctor improved my perspective on the outcome. I felt very heard when I voiced my concerns. Once I was back home in Colorado, he personally called me to track my questionable mental health. Given how he handled my case, I find it fitting that Dr. Williams was the former president of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), the foremost authority on cosmetic and reconstructive surgery worldwide. He is a dynamic public speaker and a leading surgeon. Just like he claimed, each of my concerns were resolved. Once the swelling subsided, the breasts no longer looked too close together. They were perfectly placed and sat very well on my chest. The distortion on the side of my right breast...GONE. This outcome has actually surpassed my hopes and high expectations. Because of Dr. William's astute implant choice for me, the breasts move more like real breast tissue and generally look more natural than either of my previous reconstructive outcomes. They have great symmetry and are the perfect size for my frame. They even fit well in almost every bra I already own, so they're exactly the same size as my native breasts. I believe these new ones have exceptional aesthetic appeal thanks to the surgical precision, steady hands, and an artist's eye of Dr. Williams. I have minimally visible incision lines (see photo), a full range of motion in my upper body, and zero pain. The goal of better anchoring the implants inside tightened pockets was also achieved. It has been about four months since my surgery, and no implant flippage has occurred (and they have, shall we say, been utilized recreationally). One lover of mine remarked about my new breasts, "They belong in a museum". Though it has been great to hear such feedback, I think it is more important that I actually love them now. The decision to undergo the revision was so right. As you consider your options, Dr. Williams should stand out as a top choice for anyone seeking the highest-quality services at astonishingly reasonable prices, especially for the San Francisco Bay Area! You should not hesitate to book a consultation with him, who is so sought after for his stellar reputation. He is also an activist for the care of breast cancer patients. As the first Black surgeon to serve as president of the ASPS and continuing on with such tremendous excellence at TriValley, he is a history-maker in the field of plastic & reconstructive surgery. Needless to say, I am forever grateful to have had Steven Williams, MD, work on me.

I've been a loyal client of SEV for quite some time and have always had great experiences, which is…read morewhy this recent visit stood out to me. I've even referred my sisters and friends here because of the positive results I've had in the past. During my last session, the appointment started about 8-9 minutes late (which I completely understand happens). However, the treatment itself felt much shorter than my previous sessions and didn't feel as thorough. Unfortunately, the results reflected that -- I experienced ingrown hairs and had to shave the treated area three times within just 7 days, which has never happened after my past treatments. I did try reaching out to share this feedback but didn't receive a response. I still like SEV and hope future sessions return to the quality I previously experienced, and regret that they no longer value customers feedback as they first opened in Walnut Creek location.

I'm greeted by the kind receptionists, barely have a wait prior to my appointment, and the times I come in are super quick. The nurses here are attentive to your personal needs and always ask to make sure you're feeling comfortable. I appreciate the customer service here because for years, I put off laser hair removal and I'm glad I started. I purchased a groupon package and I think it's worth it! I see a lot of progress in my hair growth and to me, it's painless. Check out SEV to try out your first time! They also have seasonal deals from time to time. I was able to receive a free small area in observance of the holidays. Their promotions, you can't beat them. The rooms are always clean and I love the aesthetic of the lounge area. I'm obsessed with adding SEV appointments to my self care :)
