I don't know where to begin. I had breast reduction surgery on May 6, 2025 today is January 1, 2026. As I sit here and compose this post, I am still in Pain. It has been an ongoing ordeal. I noticed the first onset of something festering around June 6, 2025 about a month after the surgery. I had a scabby very painful area that I took a photo of and sent to the office and informed them of the pain.. I was told to just put vitamin E ointment on it it was just a spit stitch. That stitch turned into cellulitis, which caused me to have to go to Urgent Care and to the ER To have a drained. Twice. After two rounds of heavy duty antibiotics for 10 days and shots of antibiotics I thought maybe I was going to ok. The ER doctor suggested that I go back to Dr sessions to have additional drainage performed to prevent the pus from building up and bursting. I went back to Dr sessions unfortunately, he did not drain it. The Abscess ended up bursting later that night. It became an abscess the size of a half dollar. My primary caregiver has been proactive and trying to help me. I do not know what's going to happen. My primary caregiver says that it probably needs to be opened back up As he thinks that there are tunnels that have formed... from the infection, not being treated immediately. I cannot recommend in Good merit this establishment. The pain that I am feeling right now I cannot begin to tell you. Please take care and do your due diligence before you have surgery here he does not use drains for breast reduction, I had no idea how important having drains for breast surgery is. Until I have been going through this pain. From inadequate drainage. May have led to the infection. There were many opportunities that I was notifying them that I was having burning tingling itching pain that should've been a red flag for Any medical professional. Having a surgeon that is proactive and aggressive with respect to infections is very important. read more

I have had breast augmentation and a upper blepharoplasty with Dr. Sessions. He did an amazing job and is a very knowledgeable, skilled surgeon who truly cares about his patients. He is easy to talk to and takes his time answering questions and explaining procedures with you. The office manager Jen is also very knowledgeable as well as caring and kind. Like the doctor, she takes her time in answering all of your questions as well as puts your mind at ease about any concerns you might have. Joy the receptionist is also a sweetheart. I can't say enough about doctor Sessions and his team. read more

Dr. Sessions came highly recommended to me, and I highly recommend him as well. After losing 100+ pounds, I had quite a bit of excess skin all over my body. I had decided I wanted a MMO. I did quite a bit of research and had friends and acquaintances recommend Dr. Sessions. From the moment I walked into the office, I was met with smiles and kindness from Jennifer and Joy at the front desk. I then met with Dr. Sessions and he patiently answered my questions and addressed my surgery concerns. I knew before I left the consultation that he was who I wanted to perform my surgeries. With each visit leading up to surgery, his team led me through every detail and thoroughly explained each part of the process - and called me the night before to go over all of my information. Dr. Sessions is professional and a great surgeon! He has transformed my body in a way I never knew was possible. The whole team is kind, knowledgeable, and very attentive - and continue to address and answer any questions I have! Thank you to the whole team! read more

Horrible surgeon. Totally botched my breast lift and when confronted wouldn't take ownership of his very obvious mistake. He literally tried to say it was my fault. I've now had two procedures to fix his mistake and I'm still not anatomically correct. read more

I went to Dr. Sessions in May 2020 to remove a mark on my cheek. He was truthful what it might look like in the future. I am very pleased with the outcome and appreciate his professionalism and honesty. Jennifer, his assistant, was also very kind and helpful. I highly recommend Dr. Sessions. read more

I had a tummy tuck, lipo, breast lift, and breast augmentation done by Dr. Sessions last month. I am in LOVE with my results!! Dr. Sessions is kind and gentle. He put any fear or worry I had to rest with his knowledgeable explanations. He has the most amazing staff as well!! Jennifer & Rachelle are so wonderful. I would & will recommend all my family and friends to Dr. Sessions. read more

Hi everyone, I've never written a review before but so happy with how all my procedures have turned out that wanted to share my experience for anyone out there considering surgery. I can't recommend Dr Sessions enough! Staff Jennifer and Joy have been amazing and a pleasure to work with! So kind and informative. Here's the list of what I've had done and info on me so you have an idea of where I'm coming from. I'm 5"1' weight 140ish, had gastric bypass 13 years ago (lost 90 lbs), regained and re-lost about 50 lbs. so had loose skin, especially around my tummy, arms, thighs and breasts were at my waist! lol So in 2022 I met with 4 different doctors for consults. When I had my consult with Doc Sessions, I knew he was the one! From the moment I entered in office I got a good feeling. I had done some research on him and knew he was very experienced, well thought of in field, and had a good reputation. Plus he has a great staff! When I met with Dr S. he listened to my concerns, desires and hopes! Afterall, this was a big decision for me and not to be taken lightly! Plus, I was nervous! So long story long...lol, I've had a breast lift, tummy tuck, lipo of my flanks (so worth it), my arms done in 2022, thigh lift (2023) revision of tummy tuck scare (2023), and tweak on thigh lift (06/15/23) done by Dr Sessions. The level of care I've received has been amazing and any concerns I've brought up along the way, always addressed and questions encouraged. I'm so glad I found Dr Sessions and his team! And truly greatful! read more

I recently had a neck lift from Dr. Sessions and am so very happy with the results. I met with several other doctors before going to Dr. Sessions, but none of them even came close to his skills, caring, and expertise. He was not pushy, as were the others, and he took the time to discuss all the pros and cons of my procedure. I was truly impressed with his staff, Jennifer and Joy, and made my decision right then and there to have him do my neck lift. Everyone in his office was so positive and friendly and made me feel very comfortable. My down time was very minimal and there was little to no pain. I would truly recommend Dr. Sessions to anyone. He is the BEST! read more

I went to Dr Sessions in 2002 for a tummy tuck and breast implants. He was the 12th doctor in interviewed. I could have saved a LOT of time had he been the first. From the minute I walked in the door I knew. Not only is he the absolute BEST, his staff is too. Dr Sessions thoroughly explained in detail both procedures..he didn't have me disrobe to give me my first consultation. He also told me about possible complications, specifically, capsular scarring (http://www.implantforum.com/capsular-contracture/). The 11 doctors I had interviewed prior to him did not tell me this. I had gotten it. If I hadnt been told about it and got caught by surprise, I know I would have been stressed. Dr Sessions is the best. He doesnt catgorize, takes each patient as an individual. He doesnt tell you to bring a picture of the breast that you want. He doesnt tell you to pick a size (cup size). Every one is different, everyone has different breasts, tissue, skin, etc. I didnt want to pick a breast from a picture. I wanted my own. I had asked Dr Sessions about thebags under my eyes. His answer was "You dont have bags, I am not touching your eyes, ask me in ten years" I LOVE that he didnt do it just because I asked him to, that as a professional, he said I didnt need it. He also removed my daughters keloid scar from a belly button piercing and left a tiny, barely visible scar. The man is AWESOME. Thirteen years later, I am still happy. I stopped in to see him recently. The staff has changed but the warm welcome has not. I felt like I had been talking to these women for years. Unfortunately, I missed the good doctor. They said they couldputme onhis schedule to ensure I would see him. Ididnt want to waste histime with an appointment for a simple hello. They told me his schedule so I could catch him. I will be visiting him soon..... This review turned out longer than I meant it to, but I can just go on and on about how happy I am with choosing him, still. And he is the only one I still choose. read more

I had 2 procedures done with Dr. Sessions and I was VERY happy with him and his staff that I've recommended him to several of my friends who have all been very pleased with his work. He takes time to explain the procedure, called me personally the day before and after the procedure, provided me with his cell number to call anytime. With any cosmetic procedure people have to be realistic. He can't perform miracles! You have to have a good foundation to start...just like anything else. Perhaps that's why the previous reviewer had such a bad review. Who know. To each his own. :) read more

I was referred to Dr. Sessions as I wanted filler for my under my eyes. I was going to a med spa but felt more comfortable seeing a plastic surgeon for the filler. The front desk was super friendly and so was Dr. Sessions. He made me feel comfortable about the procedure and told me what to expect. He went conservative on my filler as I was nervous to look "fake" and he nailed it. It very natural, it wasn't painful and I love it!! I would highly recommend him! read more

I had a rhinoplasty done here and ever since my first call they have been extremely nice and attentive specially Jennifer at the front her customer service is amazing she makes you feel as if you have known her for a long time :) The day of my surgery they made me feel so comfortable I was not nervous at all. It's been almost a year and they have been seeing me every 3 months to make sure everything is going good. I extremely recommend them if you want to have anything done. read more

I just Love this Doctor.. I admit I was skeptical at first but I am so glad I proceeded with my procedure. The whole office treated me so professional and I will refer this office to anyone. I had my Boobs Lifted and they look like they did when I was in my youth. Thank you so much for EVERYTHING!! You will NOT be disappointed! read more

Mr. Sessions has many, many, patients. I was recommended to Mr. Sessions by a friend and the attention to detail and the professionalism is AWESOME!! Yes, I was very skeptical to say the least.. I had my boobs lifted and they look AMAZING!! Thank you to Dr. Sessions and his remarkable staff.. SMC read more

Consummate professional with great advice. He performed my blephoraplasty and I am super happy with the results. People used to ask me if I was tired and I didn't understand that they were referring to the bags under my eyes. I'd always been skeptical of plastic surgery but after seeing the job Dr Sessions did with my wife's breast implants I decided to give it go. I have never been disappointed and would recommend to anyone read more

I've had 4 procedures done with Dr. Sessions and I couldn't be happier with all 4. I'm a happy customer and I highly recommend him. Dr. Sessions is not out to take your money but truly cares about doing only what is best for you. I trust him completely and he is great at what he does! read more

My wife and I were going to come here but after the treatment we got from the receptionist....... no thank you....... her words exactly "we dont need your business" ...... wow i guess you might not, i try to only write good review to build companies but this was uncalled for, no one needs to be treated how we were treated, please think long and hard before you come here or call because this is for life and if these people are representing the business and they continue to disrespect people, what does that say about the doctor who choses these people to represent him? im sorry if you cant have attention to detail for choosing your staff how can i trust you to have enough attention to detail on my wife's body? read more

After many consults around town, I was referred to Dr. Sessions. I knew it was the right place for me when I arrived. I love his staff and Dr. Sessions is a professional and caring doctor. I am completely happy with my procedure and I have referred him many times. read more

I was recommended by a friend. I'm sitting in the parking lot, having driven all the way to La Mesa from Carlsbad for my scheduled consultation. To my surprise, everyone had already gone home for the day. Very clear indicator that I should seek professionalism and expertise elsewhere. Bummer. read more

I had my tummy tuck and lipo sculpting .. I have to say he is the best !!!! Dr. Session goes out of his way to make sure your doing good and feel good .. He will advise you what's surgeries he recommends for your body type .... The staff is awesome so is chyntia ... I feel very welcomed every time I visit .. Will not trade Dr. Session for any other Dr... read more

Dr. Sessions is very friendly as well as his staff but I honestly wouldn't go to him again for surgery. :(

I had my eyes ( both upper and lower ) and I was very happy with the results. I plan on going back to him for another procedure. I also referred a friend for his nose and he was very happy with the job he did. Cynthia is very professional and makes sure you always feel comfortable. read more

I am extremely displeased with the work and the broken promises. The costs don't include "repairs". I had a breast augmentation and lift and a tummy tuck. Both with the promise that I would be in a bikini within a month "and I would look great!" I had a hemorrhage on my right breast and was bruised all the way down to my hip bone. After that healed, the outer side of the same breast was flat and required an additional procedure to correct. During that same corrective procedure he had to reopen the incision around my areola to correct a problem. It fixed the problem but now I have an obvious HUGE scar and a discolored areola. The healing time was long and extensive. After all was done, im still not pleased with the finished product. When I don't wear a bra, my breasts lay flat on my chest and look awful. They look ok when wearing a bra but I'm embarassed to show them to anybody uncovered (naked). I was told this too could be modified....more to follow on that. Before the tummy tuck, I was told there would be a small scar in my pubic hair region and would be healed & ready for that bikini within a month. NOT!! He placed in 2 separate drain bulbs that were to remain for approximately 3 days. It was more like 3 weeks and I also had to go in 4 times to have blood drained from my stomach with a huge syringe. I still have a scar at the area the blood was sucked out and 2 round scars where the 2 drain tubes were located. It gets worse......the "small scar" is actually 8 inches long and runs from hip bone to hip bone. Well above where your underwear will cover. In about a 4 inch area, the scar is about 1/2 inch wide At each hip bone, the scar has bunched up and it looks like I have nipples there. A year later now and I still don't have any feeling on my stomach even though that too was to be temporary. When you go in for your consultation, you're told the cost (I spent $11, 000) would cover everything, including repairs. In actuality, any repairs that require anesthesia he will charge you at least $500 which is on top of what you already paid. Bottom line.....go somewhere else. The office staff and Dr Sessions are nice and friendly while they're trying to get your business. However, if yoy require any follow-on work, they hardly give you the time of day. I'm embarassed of how I look and embarassed to show my body to anybody let alone wear a bikini!! read more

I went to Dr Session in Dec 2015. For an eyelid lift and a necklift. He is super nice untill there is an issue and then you will see his true self. Now I have one eyelid larger than the other. Scars coming out of the corners of my eyes. Dr Session told me the incisions would be only in the crease of my eyeslids and would not be noticeable however the scars look like my eyelids have been torn out. I have to wear eyeshadow and eyeglasses to try and cover it up. I have drooping eyebrows and my left eye is irritated most of the time. I also have floaters in my left eye which I did not have before. I also have a crease on my nose from one corner of my eye to the other corner of my eye do to the drooping eyebrows. On my neck he did get the sagging skin but only to leave a pouch of skin sagging under the right side of chin/jaw. My ears now look deformed so I can never wear my hair up. On top of all that he was rude in his comments and would not acknowledge his mistakes. He only said "your eyelid is only a "little" bigger than the other" Wow! Unbelievable but true. I have to work hard with makeup to try and make it not so noticeable. I have also realized he has no integrity because after I disputed the charge to the Financial Institution who financed me he actually straight out lied. He told them that when I came in complaining of my eye being irritated he found It to be en eyelash which is totally untrue. He also said the results were compromise because I gained a significant amount of weight. Now if that were true what would that have to do with floaters in my eye, scars coming out of the corner of my eyes and deformed looking ears. Yes I did gain only a few pounds but because I was battling depression after seeing the results. It is so scary to think I trusted Dr Session. If you plan on seeing this doctor please make sure you search all social media for reviews. After seeing a Reconstructive Plastic Surgeon I was told It would cost me 14 thousand dollars just to get rid of the sagging skin and fix the ears. My eyes he will not touch so i am stuck with it unless I get a miracle. read more

Scott Sessions, MD - Cosmetic Surgeons Near Me - La Mesa, California

I've been going to Dr Sessions for Botox and Juvederm. He explains procedures every time, is professional and gracious. His staff is very welcoming and nice, especially Cynthia. read more

Dr. Sessions is a good Doctor. However, "Monique" his receptionist alone will be the reason I will never refer or return to see the Doctor ever again. She is the most UNPROFESSIONAL person I have ever come across in my life. If you want to deal with a women calling your home telling you to go f yourself. This is your Doctor. She is the most foul mouthed, rude and CLEARY out of line RECEPTIONIST I have ever encountered. read more

I was referred to Dr. Sessions by a good friend who had gotten Botox done. After seeing her results and hearing her rave about Dr. Sessions and his staff, I decided to have it done too. I am SO glad that I did! Dr. Sessions' staff members Cynthia and Rochelle are ridiculously nice and helpful. They called me back within an hour of me leaving my initial message and actually apologized for not getting back to me sooner. When I got there, I didn't have to wait at all and was greeted by Dr. Sessions who thoroughly explained the procedure and made sure that I felt comfortable the entire time. I will definitely go back to Dr. Sessions and would recommend him to my family and friends as well. read more

Got a tummy tuck done here and although sessions is a nice guy, he's not the best plastic surgeon. He totally hacked my stomach and I have a huge scar. It's been about 8 years since my surgery and the scar is still so noticeable and can't really be hidden. The scar goes across my lower stomach and then up on each hip! I definitely wouldn't recommend. Oh, also, I had "dog ears" after my procedure and has to have another revision surgery, which of course, was close to another $1000. read more

I had my breast implant surgery done by Dr. Sessions on a recommendation. I am so happy I listened. The very first time I walked in the door, I knew this was the doctor for me. He was friendly, candid and forthright. His staff, especially Cynthia, made me feel at home and at ease. My operation was in March and every follow appointment up has been fantastic. By the way, they look FABULOUS!! I and my husband couldn't be more pleased. I highly, highly recommend Dr. Sessions, so much that my husband and mother will be getting a procedure done with him very soon. Picking your plastic surgeon is a big decision. If you have any questions about him, ask the staff to forward your information to Diana or Sandy. They will know who we are and we would love to answer any questions! read more

I had slits in my earlobes from wearing too heavy of earrings and also from wearing my earrings too tight when I was little. When I was in high school I decided to stretch my ears a little and those made the slits even worse. Since taking the gauges out I haven't been able to wear regular stud earrings and I was really self conscious about my ears when people would ask me what happened to them. I finally decided to get them fixed. After talking with a few other offices I decided I wanted to get my ears stitched here and I couldn't be happier with my choice. I just got my stitches out and my ears look perfect!! I am so happy! I also have to add that every single person I talked to in the office was great. The lady I had my consultation with, the nurse, the doctor, and the receptionist were all professional, kind and funny. Would definitely come here again if I wanted to get more work done. read more

I have been going to Dr Sessions for 20 years. Had a breast augmentation done first. I did have some complications with my surgery.. I had a capsule in my right breast. I had 5 surgeries to try and correct the problem .. My right breast would get hard as a rock and hurt. After 2 years of this nightmare and multiple surgeries he suggested we just completely remove the right breast so it could completely heal. I went 5 months with only one implant and would place a implant on in inside if my right bra so it would appear they were the same size. I was a ddd on one side and a b on the other ... After one final surgery my body didn't reject it completely. I had a little capsule but it was livable. About 8 years later I started getting Botox from him. I then went back because it was time to replace my breast it had been about 15 years. As always he's as nice as can be. I asked him about a tummy tuck he gave me great advice and 2 weeks later I looked like a new person I had beautiful smaller breast no capsule this time. (I wanted them smaller) and a beautiful tummy. Now let me say I have seen a lot of tummy tucks and it's been about 8 years since my surgery. But I never have seen one that looks as natural and beautiful as mine. I also sent 2 co workers to him last year one got a tummy tuck and both got their Brest done.. They loved him. I will be going in the next few months for my eyes.. Thanks you for being awesome Dr Sessions and your entire wonderful staff. read more

In my opinion this would be your worst mistake. I was completely hacked and have gone through three surgeries to correct his hack job! Oh and not to mention double what I payed him! I am still not 100% fixed either. One star is giving this doctor and office credit they don't deserve. read more

I have gone to Dr. Sessions for several years for Botox injections as well as a facial lazar treatment. I have found Dr. Sessions and his staff to be extremely professional , upbeat and caring. I would not go anywhere else. Trust is important. I wonder as I read some of these negative comments if it is not the consumer rather than the doctor who has a problem. read more

Let me start off by saying I have never been blessed with such an amazing Doctor until I met Dr. Sessions! I have seen 3 different plastic surgeons and NONE of them ever gave me the care and treatment that I needed. I have now been a patient of Dr. Sessions for years!! He is not like many doctors I have come in contact with, he is very down to earth and does not try to push any procedure on you that is not necessary. Not only is Dr. Sessions amazing, his staff Jennifer, Frieda and Rochelle are all incredible!! They welcome you with open arms the second you walk through the door! Jennifer is always on top of everything, following up with patients ensuring they are doing well, she is the glue that holds the office together! Frieda and Rochelle are right by your side once you wake up from surgery taking care of your every need! If you find yourself in search of a great board certified plastic surgeon, please visit his office and you will see for yourself how amazing your visit will be! read more

After having my son's ears done with Dr. Sessions and being very happy years later I went back to have my upper eyes done and a neck lift. After the neck settle he saw he needed to do alittle more lift (which is normal) and had no problem fixing at no cost to me. His bedside manner is wonderful and he makes you feel good about yourself. Staff was excellent. read more

To start with, the front office staff is AMAZING! Cynthia is the SWEETEST lady on the planet. So helpful, so caring, so nice! Dr. Sessions was equally as awesome. He explained everything in detail. Didn't try to sell me on anything extra. Botox was painless, easy, and worked wonders! My new addiction! read more
