This review is loooong overdue and is for Jennifer, who did my fillers. I showed up in a time of acute distress, I was having severe anxiety and panic unrelated to ny procedure. Jennifer was extraordinarily kind, nurturing and calming. She was beyond patient and had the most therapeutic presence. With her support I was able to ground enough to do the fillers and she did a PERFECT job. I'm always a bit anxious with any procedure and she was so understanding and skilled. It took me way to long to thank her for this by way of this review, but her expertise and demeanor was everything I needed. Would not want to see anyone else. read more

If I could rate Dr. Delgado and his staff I would give him a million. I was looking for a lower face neck lift deep plane. I checked out many plastic surgeons. I went to Dr. Delgado around 15 years ago for broken blood vessels around my nose. They never came back. I figured why not go back to him. He is the BEST. He is a true artist, he's caring, he listens to what you say. I feel like he is family. I'm so happy with my surgery. I really couldn't ask for more. read more

Now I may have skin cancer...Thanks to Dr. Delgado and his handy dandy CO2 Laser. Even admitted he "didn't follow the gridlines". Refused to pay for treatments. Thought it was FAIR to pay half. Finally when 3 Dermatologista all agreed...and I was called to hear: YOU NEED TO SUE THIS SURGEON. Well, folks doctors don't do that to other doctors. Finally, Dr. Delgado agreed to cover my treatments after hearing this. The treatments only stripped out the remaining 10% of pigmentation I had. My face is white and I'm olive complected. The photos attached are pretty bad. Get ready.... ps trying to add another pic, doesn't seem to even want to be added...it's pretty bad. I'll try adding separately. read more

Unpleasant breast reduction size for small person . Had to re do it almost impossible but luckily second surgery was successful. Size was uneven and unaligned as well . Do not recommend further breast reduction read more

An update...Ariel, my beloved aesthetician, as well as the receptionist (who was great) have left Dr. Delgado's office. My last treatment there, with the new provider, was fine but unremarkable, and felt impersonal. I've followed Ariel to her new practice and am glad to provide contact information if anyone else wishes to do the same. read more

Over the last 5 years, I have lost 110+ lbs. I have been overweight my entire life, and after losing so much weight and at 32 years old, I recognized that to achieve the desired aesthetic would require plastic surgery. It feels extremely personal to trust someone to look at my body kindly and professionally after a life spent being hard on myself. In October 2024, I emailed Dr. Delgado's office for a consultation. I received an immediate response from Chelsie and scheduled a consultation with Dr. Delgado. When I met Dr. Delgado, he exuded a patient attitude, a keen eye, and a professional manner. Dr. Delgado took the time to walk me through the procedure, expressing how serious these surgeries are and listening to every question I had. It was clear that Dr. Delgado has a commitment to patient safety and their well-being. I scheduled my surgery the next day. In January 2025, Dr. Delgado performed a tummy tuck, breast lift and augmentation, and liposuction. Not only did he devote the surgery day to me, but he has continued to provide attention and care. He called the first few days to check in on me. He told me to never hesitate to text or call his personal number with questions or concerns. He met with me twice a week for a month. Every step of the way, I felt supported. Two months later, I touch my tummy, and for the first time in my life, I get to truly feel beautiful and feminine. All the excess skin is gone, and now my figure shows my weight loss. My scars are thin, delicate, perfectly placed. I'm still in blissful shock. The before and after is tremendous. It has been such an emotional journey, and I am so thankful that Dr. Delgado performed such an exemplary level of care. Brevity is not my strong suit, but in this review, I hope you move forward with Dr. Delgado. Whatever you are searching for, I truly believe you will find great results with Dr. Delgado. And to his office staff----Chelsie, thank you for your patience with all my questions, calls, and paperwork for my job. Liz, thank you for your attention during my visits and helping with post-op care. To all the nurses and my anesthesiologists, thank you for your knowledge, skills, and care throughout my procedures. And finally, thank you, Dr. Delgado. I never truly expressed to you how much this surgery was life changing for me. Thank you for taking care of me----my fiancé and mom are particularly grateful. I'm so excited for this next chapter. Thank you for your care and kindness and skill throughout every stage. read more

Professional and great work. Had some surgery done 15-20 years ago and it has held ip nicely and looks totally natural and esthetic

Truly an artist. Still recovering but I can tell from his work, that he is impeccable and his attention to detail is a work of artistry. Staff is amazing. Anesthesiologist truly cared for me. Post op, I am feeling good. Just a day of grogginess. Dr. Delgado and Chelsie really attends to my needs promptly. I am very happy in decided on Dr. Delgado. I highly recommend him and his staff. 2 wks later, absolutely gorgeous work. read more

To preface, I lost 130lbs, breastfed two children for over a year, and came in wanting a breast augmentation. Needless to say, my breasts was a complex project, but from the moment I stepped into Dr. Delgado's Novato office for my consultation, I felt at ease. From my first consultation with Dr. Delgado to interactions with Chelsea, his client consultant, and Renee at the front desk, the entire team was welcoming, professional, and thorough. Dr. Delgado took the time to explain everything in detail and was realistic about what could be achieved. I appreciated his honesty and the confidence he instilled in me about the procedure. I never felt pressured, and all my questions were thoughtfully answered that I booked my surgery within days of our initial meeting, and the process was seamless. I had my breast augmentation on 12/30, both Dr. Delgado and I agreed that 495cc gummy bear high-profile implants with a Strattice (internal bra) and lift would get me the look I was achieving. At just three weeks post-op, the results are phenomenal. Dr. Delgado removed my remaining sutures today, and I can hardly tell there were ever stitches--it's truly a testament to his skill and precision. Dr. Delgado has clearly perfected his craft, and I couldn't be happier with the results. This experience has been worth every single penny, and I'll absolutely be returning to him for any future procedures. If you're considering plastic surgery, I can't recommend Dr. Delgado enough--he's simply amazing! read more

Maybe he could do the procedure correctly so I wouldn't have been permanently face scarred. Perhaps he could have explained what kind of laser or said anything, something about it. I knew absolutely nothing. There's a lot more to this than what I'm writing about. See previous posts: EVEN GOOD SURGEONS CAN MSKE BAD MISTAKES. read more

Dr. Delgado was recommended to me by a friend who had seen him for a surgical procedure she had done. Ten years later, I finally called his office to schedule an appointment for my own procedure. That was such a successful and positive experience for me that I went back three years later for another procedure! Eleven years after my first surgery with Dr. Delgado, I returned for one more surgery. I cannot say enough how comfortable I was with Dr. Delgado and his team. Everyone was so professional and caring about my pre and post care....and that is a statement that covers all of my care since 2013! I highly recommend Dr. Delgado for your cosmetic surgical needs. I would never have gone through three separate procedures with him if I didn't trust him completely. So, so happy with my results! read more

Dr. Delgado has magic hands! He did my breast revision. The results simply blew me away not only because my breasts now look COMPLETELY NATURAL, but also because I DIDN'T HAVE ANY PAIN after the surgery!!! He really considered every ideal look I wanted and executed it with absolute success. I couldn't be more happier with the result! In addition to the surgery, they offer complementary Botox injections. Can you imagine that you don't even feel the needle when he injects it?!!! For me it was a miracle. I will be returning to Dr. Delgado for any of my future cosmetic surgeries and procedures. Thank you, Dr. Delgado! read more

Extremely ecstatic about my results! I'm 10 weeks post op TT, muscle repair and Lipo flanks and back Could not have picked a better surgeon. He contoured my body beautifully I can't believe it's my body. He's got an eye for shaping and my TT scar is super thin plus an awesome belly button. He doesn't just cut the loose skin off he contours as well and my results look so natural. No lumps either Would like to add that his entire staff is very friendly and knowledgeable :) even when I had one hundred questions and called so many times Going back next year for a couple thing Yes I recommend 100% read more

Miguel Delgado, M.D - TT, muscle repair, lipo flanks and back 10 weeks post op - Cosmetic Surgeons Near Me - Novato, California

I cannot comprehend why a surgeon post op at 10 days and 3 weeks would say I should consider another surgical procedure without explanation. Looking in the mirror I believe my skin was pulled too tightly. read more

Dr. Delgado and his team are amazing. I am 3 months post surgery and I couldn't be happier with my results. Dr. Delgado and his team made me feel so comfortable and made the whole process so easy. I would highly recommend Dr. Delgado, he's number 1 in my book! read more

Dr. Delgado is amazing. He fixed a 30 year problem that 3 other surgeon could not... Wish I had gone to him 30 years ago..

Dr delgado is literally a magician helped me with my gyno issue and I'm absolutely grateful and happy with the results .. everyone in the office was great Chelsie was very informative in every detail of the procedure and the recovery process . Couldn't have picked a better or more professional business to go too with a life changing operation like this ! read more

Dr. Delgado is an excellent surgeon. He is very professional, knowledgeable as well as compassionate. I am very happy with my results. He always took his time in every single appointment that I had with him to answer all my questions and concerns before and after my surgery. I truly recommend him. read more

I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Dr. Delgado is nothing short of a miracle worker!! I had a disfigured abdomen and a huge scar from 6 previous surgeries. I had a tummy tuck and liposuction done and I now have the smooth and tight belly of an 18 year old!! A truly mind blowing transformation. Dr Delgado's staff and nurses are so kind and caring and took such wonderful care of me. read more

Dr Delgado is an excellent plastic surgeon, I am extremely happy with the outcome of my surgery and it's only been three weeks ! I'm still a bit swollen but already I can see great results. He's got a lovely welcoming office and kind staff . Doctor answered all my questions and his staff made me feel very comfortable. I did a lot of research before I chose dr Delgado, I would definitely recommend him highly. read more

Dr Miguel Delgado is a true gentleman and an absolute miracle worker He made my stomach look amazing. I had scars from a diverticulitis surgery and lots of stretch marks from having gained way too much during my 2 pregnancies. The before and after pictures speak volumes of the Dr's amazing skills. I would do it all over again! But thank God I don't have to read more

I had a tummy tuck and liposuction on my back 3 months ago. I'm 38 years old. After 3 C-section pregnancies I HAD a tummy that did not look so good. Excess of skin, loose skin and fat was my major problem. My experience was great since the moment I booked my first appointment ( just be prepared, he is very busy you may need to wait 3-6 months for a surgery), the follow ups visits and of course the day of the surgery. I think the pre- surgery appointment is crucial and it will determine how much trust you put into the surgeon. In addition how calm and prepared you will feel. Dr. Delgado is very professional and will address all your questions but not at the point to make you feel overwhelmed with information or worried. His staff is also a great resource of information at all levels of the process. If you are thinking about making any esthetic surgery I will tell you DO IT !!!! 3 months after, I've lost 17 pounds and I love to see the shape of my body in the mirror from all angles. It looks natural! It's definitely a life changer for anybody. I personally feel happier, more confident, I don't get stressed while shopping looking for the outfit that covers here or there and I can also wear everything I have in my closet. Dr. Delgado is great ! I'll recommend him to my family, friends and everyone! read more

I would like to say that my experience with Dr Delgado and the entire staff was excellent! I found the entire staff to be friendly, helpful and knowledgeable throughout all of my visits, both pre op and post op. I also have to mention that COVID began during my pre consultation/pre op visits, and I was impressed with the precautions that were put into place there. After meeting with Dr Delgado, I felt very comfortable moving forward with my surgery. I felt he listened to what my ideas and thoughts were for my breast augmentation outcome, but he also made sure to explain what would work for my body specifically. I really appreciated that. I am about 9 weeks post op now, and have had absolutely no issues or concerns. I am very happy with how my breast turned out. I would definitely recommend Dr Delgado! read more

I went in for a breast revision and to my surprise had a ruptured implant. I am so glad I chose Dr Delgado!!!!! His level of expertise was un parallel to most. I am very happy with the end result .He also restored my health. The difference between Dr. Delgado and the surgeon that originally put them in was he cared about the end result and he was skilled enough to give me what I wanted. His staff is wonderful and very helpful. read more

Dr Delgado is fantastic! I felt he really took the time to listen to what I needed and the end result was beautiful. His work is detailed he's a true professional. Margaret his nurse at the end was and angel!! read more

I went to Ariel RN in Dr Delgado's office for Botox and fillers. She is fantastic. She was thorough, kind, professional (brilliant), an artist and very conscientious. I have never had better results!

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Delgado and his Novato staff's knowledgeable, thoughtful, and highly professional care. The thorough pre-op and post-op attention was comforting and helpful. I'm 100% satisfied with my results. if you're considering any type of cosmetic surgery, feel confident in choosing Dr. Delgado. read more

This review is a shame on me. I had tummy tuck and lipo on 12-15-2011 and still look the same. I do have to maintain with exercise and smart eating. Its not a quick miracle fix, you do need to be realistic and take care and maintain the beautiful work Dr. Delgado and he's staff do. Alma Watts read more

Dr Delgado is an excellent surgeon and a SUPERB artist. He is clear and direct (in the best way) and he helped guide me in my surgical decisions in a way that was best for me to achieve my goals and also have long term satisfying results. Dr Delgado and his staff took me through the entire surgery process with great care and attention. My emails and calls were always answered quickly. I did my research, and had some other consults but this surgeon and his practice are superior to any other Bay Area plastic surgery office and I'm glad I made the right decision! read more

Think twice about getting any facial work done by Dr. Delgado. After interviewing at least five plastic surgeons over the past few years I chose Dr. Delgado. I should have known better because most of his before and after photos are of women in their 40s or early 50s. At the time of my surgery, I was a 68 year-old female seeking a lower facelift and lower eyelift. Below is one of the letters I wrote to Dr. Delgado. "Thank you for sending me my pre-surgery pictures, it just further validates that there is no visible difference in my lower face and jaw line and my right ear lobe looks nothing like it originally did. "As I mentioned earlier I had concerns prior to my operation which I clearly expressed to you. First, my jawline which is why I came to you in the first place, next scars that might be visible after the surgery and third I am terrified of going under, meaning anesthesia. You basically agreed to do surgery being fully aware of my concerns and never once stated you do not possess the skills needed to perform the task or there might be an issue with the results. It is quite apparent that you clearly do not possess the skills a surgeon needs to do plastic surgery on my face and neck. The first words out of my mouth after the procedure was "it looks like two different people were working on my face and one was blind " My left eye looked like someone had cut my lower lid with a serrated kitchen knife weaving it in and out of my eyelashes line, which has yet to all grow back. My right eye looks like another person had cut it with a razor-sharp blade 1/4 inch below my lash line and pulled the skin too tight. Both eyes were sewn shut smaller than before my surgery leaving eyelashes poking out of the outer creases. Also, my left eye has a bulge area. My right earlobe, there is no other word to describe it but just mutilated, does not look anything like my previous earlobe or the other one and now has a very visible scar, dimple and notch taken out of it. As you know I was in tears at my first post-op appointment with you. Incisions on one side of my face look nothing like the other. It is clear as a surgeon you cannot cut on the dotted line of very obvious folds and creases. The left side of my face had a horizontal pull a clear indication of incompetence. You never once told me you do not possess the skills needed to do my surgery nor did you mention I should seek these procedures from another surgeon. You stated in your letter you "strive to make each and every patient happy with their outcome." Striving and having the necessary skill set to carry out the procedures are two very different things. I voiced my concerns at subsequent post-op appointments and it became quite apparent that you had no intention of fixing anything, let alone the list of items. With my eyelashes growing out of the corner of my eye all you did was pull them, with my bumps all you did was poked them with a pin. Finally, I had to shame you into even accepting a revision for the scar on my right ear. "We had a contract. I inform you of what issues I wish you to correct and for that, I give you $22,825. In return, you agree, having 30 years of experience, that you have the skills needed to perform that task and perform that task with satisfactory results. The results should not be a laundry list of botched items, many of which I am stuck with. I am not comfortable having you make any revisions and will listen to my dermatologist's repeated recommendation to find another doctor to make the repairs. One year after my surgery two surgeons told me that my procedure was not successful and that I need a lower facelift. One of them does not wish to correct your mistakes. That doctor took three pictures of me so that I could show you the areas that need repair." In case anyone wants to know the cost of all the repairs is about the same as a new facelift. read more

I've had 2 surgeries from Dr Delgado in the past 2 years. First one he fixed a botched breast augmentation (from a different doctor) and did so with grace and expertise. Secondly I had a Brazilian butt lift and I am incredibly happy with the result of both surgeries. dr Delgado and his staff are professional and kind and if I could give them an extra couple of stars I would! highly recommend. If I ever want to get any more plastic surgery, I know where to go! Thank you so much Dr Delgado for ultimately help me feel much more confident and beautifu! read more

Dr Delgado is an artist I am so pleased I feel beautiful and would recommend Dr Delgado 150% read more

Miguel Delgado, M.D - You changed my life.. I highly recommend Dr Delgado Thank you - Cosmetic Surgeons Near Me - Novato, California

The whole experience was just amazing thank you very much Dr.Delgado, appreciate you and your team for making this happen.

Firstly, I never thought I would consider any type of enhancements until I turned 55 and, well, my face needed a little help. I opted for a non-surgical route and visited Ariel, a nurse at Dr. Delgado's office. She walked me through her recommendations, educated me about expectations. I decided on Botox, Juvederm and some lip filler. A facial skin peel would come later and it was a game changer. What I like about Ariel's soft touch is that, although I am open about any enhancements, not one person has thought I have had anything "done". I hear "you look younger than your age", or "You had Botox, really? I would never have guessed". My response is always - Face by Ariel. Front office is friendly and helpful and Tashana is a joy. read more

I highly recommend Dr. Delgado's practice in Novato... I have been going there for various reasons and have always been satisfied. Ariel is the best. She has worked with Dr. Delgado for a number of years.. read more

I went to several plastic surgeons prior to seeing Dr. Delgado and I don't know why I even wasted that much time! Dr. Delgado and his entire staff are hands down the NICEST and most professional staff of plastic surgeons experts I have ever met! I just had a breast reduction, lift and liposuction a little over 2 weeks ago and I cried because I was so happy with the results. I was so nervous the day of surgery, but Dr. Delgado and his team made me feel safe and calm during the entire procedure before, during and after. I have had friends that have had their breasts worked on and since seeing mine, they are regretting not seeing Dr. Delgado in the first place. You will not be disappointed :) read more

I absolutely can't say enough good things about Dr Delgado, Ariel Kirk and the excellent office team! Everyone is so kind, professional and accommodating. Dr Delgado really cares about his patients, and makes every effort to make you feel comfortable. He helps you navigate difficult life changing decisions with ease, and addresses all your concerns. You will not be let down or disappointed! read more

Very informed and skilled cosmetic surgery and injectables. Felt like Ariel really knew what she was doing and I trusted her completely

After over a year of exhaustive research, I chose Dr. Delgado to perform my surgery. I live in Marin County, so the proximity to his surgery center in Novato was a plus, too. I made the right choice for me. I had multiple procedures done: lower facelift/necklift, temporal brow lifts and upper/lower eyes. I was 66 at the time and, although my skin is still very good, everything had dropped significantly. There was excessive drooping of the skin in my upper eyelids, lower face and neck. One eyebrow was lower then the other. I had significant lower eye bags that made me look tired all the time. I never had any work done, so I was very nervous. I am now almost 6 months out and very, very happy with the results. I waited to review to allow for healing and settling. For this much work, it really takes 6 months to a year for total healing to occur. Dr. Delgado is a very skilled surgeon, very precise. He is also kind and caring. He will be available for any questions/concerns and gave me his cell number after surgery. We worked together to decide the best approach for my lower lids. I was worried that my dry eyes would cause complications if we did the more common approach (external lid incision under lower lids), and my eyes would look too different. After discussion, we agreed to the transconjunctival approach (inner lid incision), as this is better for dry eyes. Even so, I still developed chemosis in my right eye after 2 weeks or so, which lasted for 2.5 months and was very annoying. It involves patching the eye and the use of medications. This is a complication that can occur, most commonly after lower lid surgery, so be aware. However, it resolves over time. My advice; do your research, learn as much as you can about the procedures, possible complications, etc. Watch videos and ask your friends. Don't go in unprepared. And know there's going to be tradeoffs. I also hired a caregiver they recommended, Michelle Saleh, who was wonderful. She took care of everything for 2.5 days so I could totally rest, including my eyes. I listened to audible books. There was an article in the Marin IJ yesterday about the ridiculously high price of plastic surgery charged by "celebrity" plastic surgeons. I feel like I scored finding Dr. Delgado. I didn't pay anything near the prices quoted in the article. In fact, I now know I got a really good deal for all the excellent work he did. Thanks, Dr. Delgado. read more
