Just wanted to say how thankful I am finding Dr. Rivkin! I had my last rhinoplasty about 10 years ago, two surgeries in total. I started to notice I lost volume in my nose over the years looking more pinched. It made me super insecure, feeling like everyone can tell. :( I tried looking around for non surgical nose jobs since I'm terrified of another surgery! Unfortunately back then, I had no luck. Almost all the drs I found didn't want to touch my nose since I had a rhinoplasty. Last week I made the decision to do more research and find a Dr. I started googling and came across Dr Rivkins instagram. I was still looking around and everyone's after pictures on instagram and TikTok and it lead me to Dr Rivkin again! lol So I knew I had to book. I felt so comfortable in office. Not superficial like most LA clinic. Everyone was super nice and welcoming! It's only day 2 and love my results! Love the fact that Dr Rivkin offers a timeframe for touch ups too. It's a 2.5 hour drive but soo worth it. Can't thank him enough! read more

Sepi is absolutely incredible! From the moment I walked in, she made me feel so comfortable and reassured, especially since this was my first time getting my brows microbladed. She explained every step, checked in constantly, and made sure the entire process was truly painless and relaxing. My brows have never looked this good. She shaped them so beautifully that they honestly frame my face better than I ever imagined. I felt calm, taken care of, and completely confident in her hands. I'm obsessed with the results and couldn't be happier. If you're considering microblading, Sepi is the one. Highly, highly recommend! read more

I had a great experience with Dr. Rivkin! He really listened and understood my concerns with nose filler. I highly recommend him for anyone who is seeking out a liquid rhinoplasty. I had very specific concerns, but he really listened and gave me the result I was looking for! He is a phenomenal doctor and one of the only doctors who was able to fix what I wanted to fix. read more

Another year another update -- Still coming here to see Presile for my tox and filler maintenance, she never fails!!

I've had an extremely positive experience with Dr. Rivkin's office. I've been using tirzepatide for one month, and the results have been great so far. While I know weight-loss injections and medications can come with side effects, I personally haven't had any at all. The shots also include B12, which has given me a noticeable boost in energy, a great added benefit. Thank you to Dr. Rivkin and the entire team for helping me finally shed those few extra pounds that felt impossible to lose. Highly recommend. read more

Presile is a genius with a syringe! She gives you the most natural and subtle results! Slight alterations that make the biggest difference! Stuff nobody would notice was done but they notice that you look just a little more beautiful. Thank you Presile for always making me feel my absolute best and beautiful! I would trust her with my life. read more

RIVKIN Aesthetics - Cosmetic Surgeons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I am in the process of working with Dr. Rivkin to allow him to do whatever is possible via his filler finesse to, I hope, lend appreciable improvement to several unsightly, distressing deformities that I incurred as a consequence of having not one but two very bad surgeries done on my nose over the past five years. (Dr. Rivkin performed the initial filler procedure on April 9; I'm scheduled for a touchup in a few weeks.) I'm impressed by what strikes me as Dr. Rivkin's earnest desire to help me to the best of his considerable ability and by his confident yet decidedly non-arrogant, likeable demeanor. Every member of his staff whom I've interacted with has been highly professional and pleasant to work with as well. I've been through a lot over the past five years with what's become a painful, enormously regrettable life setback, but I'm glad I walked into this office. I'm hopeful that Dr. Rivkin can provide me with longterm help, at least to the degree that help is achievable in my difficult case, and that hope means a lot to me. read more

This review is for Taylor the aesthetician as it as the only service I had at this location. She was great! I didn't know what to expect but it's like a relaxing massage plus hydration for your face. Is that dumb to say? Lol it was my first time receiving this type of treatment and if everyone is like Taylor, I will be a lifelong facial person:) thanks! Oh and the two people at the front desk were helpful too! read more

I have been coming here for 5 years, and the entire staff is always warm, understanding, knowledgeable, and friendly. This office is also super communicative and easily reachable before and after appointments with any questions or concerns I may have. I trust Dr. Rivkin and his eye (and his hand!) and his nurses are consistently patient and caring. I also feel like Dr. Rivkin stays on top of the latest techniques and trends, and will never try to pressure you into a treatment or "sell" you. And finally, I have been to offices before where the front desk girls look like they have had "work" done, and not in the best taste either. You will never see that here, so you know that this practice favors natural and subtle enhancements for their clients. read more

Natalie is amazing! She is so talented and caring. I have been seeing Natalie for my botox and filler for over a year. She has a great eye and I never leave looking anything other than very natural but better than when I arrived! I highly recommend both Natalie and Rivkin Aesthetics. read more

I'm beyond happy with my results and can't wait to see how they continue to develop over the next week! My injector, Bahareh, was incredibly kind and worked so well with my anxiety, making the entire experience smooth and comfortable. She was patient, knowledgeable, and truly made me feel at ease. I have terrible anxiety--not with needles, but with control--and she provided the perfect balance of emotional support and education to ease my nerves. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a skilled, compassionate provider. The entire staff was also very friendly, making the experience even better! read more

Dr. Rivkin is a spectacular Artist. I have been seeing him for years - back when his office was in Westwood. The office now over in Brentwood area is gorgeous with beautiful views from all of the suites inside his practice. I'm so thankful I found him many years ago. Let's just say that I have no business still being carded for buying some wine - but I still do get carded here and there. Dr. Rivkin always achieves very natural beautiful results , and I would trust him 100% with anything. His staff is also incredibly kind, and if Dr. Rivkin is booked - you would be in good hands with Stephanie as well. If I ever move - I would find a way to fly back to LA to visit Dr. Rivkin. Enjoy . You have found your genius. read more

Bahareh was amazing, she completely listened to my concerns and questions and answered each one thoroughly. She communicated what to expect incredibly well and gave me such detailed care! Her eye for detail and attention to the full 360 view of my nose was amazing! The whole team and experience was a 10/10 and so sweet; I would definitely recommend booking with Bahareh! read more

Always come here for microneedling and Botox! It's the best. Natalie and Maryam are the best. I've seen great results from the microneedling. And Botox never needs a touch up!! read more

I had such a pleasurable experience from the moment I walked in all the way through to when I walked out. The staff is so kind and professional and the facility is clean. I absolutely hate needles and Dr. Rivkin as well as Presile made me feel so much more comfortable and at ease, zero issues at all. Their touch was so gentle and they walked me through the entire process. I am so happy with my results from both of them. I highly recommend coming here. read more

Shea all the way!! I have nothing but incredible things to say about my injector Shea. She was incredibly thorough, and helped me treat all of my problem areas and was even able to point out a few other issues that I honestly didn't know I had. We did some tox to have target the fine lines on my forehead and also give me a little lift. I honestly wish I had gotten better before pictures so I could show a side-by-side difference on here, but once everything settled in, I felt incredible. I will be going back to her ASAP. read more

I have been to many many injectors throughout the years, being a nurse myself , I'm pretty picky. When I wanted to have my nose injected, I did my research and being a high risk area , only trusted Dr.Rivkin. It did take a few weeks to get an appointment with him as he is booked, but definitely worth the wait. He's very pleasant, friendly and approachable. I immediately trusted him. His work speaks for itself. He was thorough, he has a great hand and attentive to detail, I felt zero pain. I trusted him so much that I ended up getting more stuff added while I was there just to take advantage of the fact that I was already there and I wanted him to inject. I will definitely be going back, although it's been months and still no touch up needed. He had me stay in the office post injection to make sure I was doing good and had no complications. Because the nose area is so high risk, he even had me send him picture next day so he can make sure I'm healing well. Thank you Dr.Rivkin for your professionalism and excellent work. read more

Natalie has been my injector for over a year now after I shopped a few nurses in LA. I have to say she is the best - she achieves only the natural look, and actually gives me the spot on advice and service, and execute what she describes me, which always exceeds my expectations. Now I understand and can see myself clearly, and stopped asking to do too much. - she educates you. I learned a lot from her. And I can say she is a master of this overwhelming available options of fillers and ways and more. - she definitely follows the rule but touches everything like a form of art. - she connects with you in very vulnerable level so you can talk to her anything, she actually reads my mind. - her focus is impeccable, while she is very gentle and kind to you. I feel so lucky to have known her - totally recommend her anyone who wants the best service. read more

I have been getting injections for ten years now and have to say my experience at Dr. Rivkin Aesthetics was the best I've ever had. The office was pristine and beautiful and the office staff were so warm and welcoming. I saw Presile for Botox and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience and results. From the start, she was professional and incredibly knowledgeable. She took the time to understand my goals and explain exactly what to expect. I felt completely at ease, which is so important when it comes to something as personal as your face. I can't recommend Presile and Dr. Rivkin's office enough! read more

I recently received under eye filler done by Presile Kong and I am so beyond pleased! She was very nice and informative especially being that it was my first time ever receiving filler. I have always struggled with dark and baggy under eyes because of both genetics and poor sleep. It has been a huge insecurity of mine. Even with make up, the bags under my eyes were still very apparent. The INSANE difference between my before and after has left me feeling so much more confident and happy. I recently started nursing school which means all school, no sleep. I was worried that my under eyes would just get worse but luckily, now I don't have to worry about that too much. I was told results can last a long time but as soon as I am no longer a broke nursing student, I will definitely be going back! Rivkin Team, thank you so much!

I went to Sepi at RIVKIN Aesthetics over a year ago to get my eyebrows microbladed, and I still absolutely love my results. She shaped my brows perfectly, made the process comfortable, and gave me the most natural-looking outcome. Even a year later, they've held up beautifully, which is why I'm excited to go back to her again. Sepi is truly skilled, attentive, and someone I trust completely with my brows. read more

NATALIE THE BEST! She is the only injector in LA that I've found. she is so friendly, honest, and does not try to oversell you on something you don't need. I have been to her time and time again and I will never go to anyone else after seeing her. read more

Natalie is awesome she really sits down with you and listens to what you are looking to fix or improve! I love her attention to detail and her positive attitude! She strives to keep you looking natural as well which I love!! She is amazing!!! read more

I came to see Dr. Rivkin at Westside Aesthetics after watching countless internet ads and online videos promoting him as a "filler expert." Unfortunately, my experience was the complete opposite of what was promised -- and it has turned into one of the most painful, experiences of my life. On August 5th, I received chin filler and immediately felt sharp pain in my gums, teeth, and jaw that has persisted every single day since. The aesthetic results were minimal, but the nerve pain and tooth sensitivity have been constant and debilitating. When I returned for a follow-up, Dr. Rivkin admitted he'd never seen a reaction like this before, calling it "unprecedented." Despite this, his office refused to issue a refund -- even after I explained that I can't risk further nerve damage by allowing more injections. Instead, they repeatedly pushed me to "come back in" for more procedures, ignoring my clear and repeated pleas that I was in pain and terrified to be injected again. It's now been months of suffering, anxiety, and emotional distress -- and they have just stopped responding entirely. Paying $2500 for a procedure that left me in constant pain and with no benefit is beyond unacceptable. This clinic's advertising promises expertise and safety, but my reality has been pain, nerve damage, and total indifference. They should be ashamed. Beware of the marketing. Beware of the lack of accountability. Beware of Westside Aesthetics. read more

I came to this clinic because I thought that a specialist who had previously lived in Russia would do a very high-quality job. As a rule, our Russian cosmetologists are the best. In the end, I was "a little" shocked when they told me the price for my complex of procedures. It was $7,500 for filler and Botox. Never in my life have I paid such a huge price. You can buy a car for this money. But at that moment the situation was critical for me, I needed to fill in under my eye to hide the defect. I thought that since the price was so high, the quality would be high. And I decided to take a risk. In the end, I got just some kind of horror. They injected me with much more Botox than necessary. It was obvious that the dosage was excessive, because my forehead just went numb. It became absolutely motionless, like a plastic doll. This is not the first time I have done Botox and I know how it becomes normal. After that, my head hurt for three days. But the main thing I came for was the filler under my eyes. Again, I had done this procedure before and more than once, so I knew perfectly well how it should look. They injected too much filler and injected it too close to the surface. Because after that, my nasolacrimal beard began to look even worse. A bluish tint appeared, which indicates the external conditions of the drug. And my face became puffy, and it looked just awful. Honestly, I went to the clinic for advice. They offered me to come and inject a lipolytic to dissolve the filler, and then inject it again. Surely, they would not even take this money. But my appearance is much better than mine, and I was simply afraid to show up to get an even worse result. What if the doctor does not know how to inject the filler correctly, then what will happen to my face after using lipolytics on it, which can lead to failures? I see that all the reviews about this company are written by people who have one or two reviews on Google maps. Think about it. It's a shame that they wasted time and money, but it's even more of a shame that they ruined my appearance. I still have a problem under my left eye that can't be fixed. Now I only have to have blepharoplasty. I know that I should have at least gotten a refund right away, but I was so upset that I didn't want to come to this situation at all. I hope that those who are looking for quality cosmetic care will read my review and draw the appropriate conclusions. What hopes I had for this clinic and what I got instead - I wouldn't wish it on my enemy. read more

I was in desperate need of a re up on my Botox and I was lucky enough to get on Presile's schedule. She's the sweetest and listens to what you want/want to address. I can't wait for the full results to kick in . Everyone here is so nice. It's a breath of fresh air coming to Dr. Rivkin's office. Wish I could stay longer read more

I have always wanted to target my skin concerns such as acne, texture, and uneven skin tone and decided to make an appointment here with nurse Shea. I did not know where to start with my skin journey, but the consultation with her and laser treatment performed has been the best experience. Her knowledge and education about aesthetics made me feel more comfortable and confident with treatments. Her professionalism and attention to detail is an attribute that makes me continue coming here, and I highly recommend her! read more

Stefanie was great as always and hands of gold. Very knowledgeable and skilled with a warm personality.

I received a non-surgical nose job with filler from Presile. This was my first time ever having a cosmetic procedure done. It went so smoothly. Presile explained the process thoroughly and answered all of my questions. I felt very comfortable with her and loved my results. Will be going back to her again. read more

Stefanie is a remarkable artist in all things aesthetics. I've been seeing her for many years now for Botox and minor filler, and while I tell everyone I've had it done, they never guess on their own! She is amazing at delivering natural and yet stunning results. In my latest trip I did Fraxel dual, and the whole experience was excellent. I'm especially happy that she's an RN-- she knowledgeably answered every question, addressed every concern, and afterwards was always available for questions on chat. Most importantly, I am so thrilled with the results. She is and you cannot go wrong by seeing her! read more

I had to add to my review from last week. This morning I had a Zoom call with my Somatic coach via my cell phone. After saying good morning, Zach said, "Wow Rochelle what did you do? You look so refreshed. So rested." LOL! I told him I colored my hair. He said well you look the best I've ever seen! Thanks again Prsell for your expert artistry... You are a complete artist! read more

I'm having trouble expressing how much Dr. Rivkin has changed my life for the better. Many years ago I had a chin implant intra orally, soon after removed, that left me with a scar prominent enough to honestly destroy my self- esteem. Now, most people will say that's an exaggeration and that personality and confidence is what matters, but that scar was all I could see when I looked at myself in the mirror. Some of you will understand, it is that one part of yourself that for no special reason has always been in the way- for some of you it might be your height, for others your stomach, varicose veins, or wrinkles... you name it- for me, it was my chin scar. I searched for doctors over the past 8 years, hoping a laser, a cream, or some sort of magical treatment would at least lessen the visibility of that cursed scar. I went to New York, Beverly Hills, Brazil, and even Korea and NO DOCTOR was able to suggest ANYTHING that could fix it. I tried lasers but they only made it somewhat worse. It was then that I came to Doctor Rivkin. He heard my complaints and agonies in all seriousness and quickly made suggestions, NEVER pushing any treatment. HIS SUGGESTIONS WORKED! Not only did he fix that cursed scar, he also got rid of the scar tissue resulted from a previous rhinoplasty. Dr. Rivkin is a miracle-making wonder who is not afraid to treat your concerns because he KNOWS what he is doing. Board-certification does not immediately grant that knowledge, from my experience. Thank you Dr. Rivkin! read more

I went to Dr. Rivkin for Botox and fillers and was very disappointed. He told me I was being given a large amount of both products, but based on what was actually administered, it was about half of what I was charged for. Unless you work in the medical field, there's no way to know exactly how much you're receiving -- you have to trust your doctor's honesty. Unfortunately, I left feeling misled and overcharged. Patients deserve transparency and accurate billing, especially with treatments like this. Westside Aesthetics has some good reviews, but NOT because the founder, Dr. Rivkin. read more

This is by far the best med spa I have ever been to! The staff are so personable and attentive. Bahareh did an amazing job and I am so happy with the results! She is so knowledgeable and skilled at what she does and literally one of the nicest people I have ever met. I drove 3 hours to get there and it was completely worth it and will not go anywhere else! I highly recommend this place I cannot say enough good things! read more

I rarely write reviews, but for Natalie I will! She is the best. She's knowledgable, patient and really makes you feel comfortable when you go to see her! read more

Great results after the botox, natural and precise. The clinic and staff are amazingly dedicated to their job and customers. I will come back soon. read more

I had the pleasure of working w Natalie again and I can confidently say I found my injector. Her approach of 'less is more' to keep looking natural aligns with my aesthetic exactly. She is thoughtful and gentle in her feedback. While she works, she guides you through literally every breath so the experience ends up being virtually painless. All of that leads me back to her again and again. read more

First and foremost, I was uncomfortable that the business asked me to send my credit card details over text. Text messages are not encrypted or secure, so sharing sensitive financial information in this way can be risky. A reputable service provider should offer safer payment options, such as handling payment over the phone, on a secure website, or in person. This policy felt unprofessional and unsafe. The communication during scheduling was also disappointing. When I called the business to provide my credit card information , the staff member simply said I had no appointment and the call ended. They did not offer any alternative dates or times or attempt to work with me to find a suitable opening. The abrupt end to the call made me feel dismissed. For a professional service, I would expect at least some courtesy of suggesting other options if my preferred time was not available; instead, I was left without any resolution. The overall booking process seemed confusing and inflexible. The business had me text my preferred appointment times upfront, but then they refused to proceed without texting my credit card information as well. In other words, they would not hold or confirm a time slot unless I sent my payment details through an unsecured channel. This seemed unreasonable to me. My experience was disappointing and concerning due to the payment security risks and poor communication. I respect that businesses may want to secure appointments, but I believe there are safer, more professional ways to do so. Until this business changes its practice, potential customers should be cautious. read more

I don't say this lightly but this place is a gem, and one of the reasons I don't want to leave la. Natalie is not only the most talented and knowledgeable provider, bur she is also the most transparent and authentic in a space where that's extremely rare. I've seen Natalie for a couple of different treatments, and she explains every bit of the process, any possibility of side effects, and best of all- she tells you NO when you don't need something. My results from Natalie have not only been absolutely beautiful, they're also very natural in a way that just enhances your own unique beauty. I would not hesitate for a single second to book with this place or with her. The bonus is that the views are gorgeous and there are always cute, sweet dogs in the office that instantly put you at ease. read more
