A respected plastic surgeon for over 25 years in San Diego with unsurpassed credentials, Dr. Steve Laverson is a diplomate of the American Board of Surgery and the American Board of Plastic Surgery. He is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons and an active member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons. Beyond that, Dr. Laverson has excellent aesthetic sense and artistic talent. His passion is for natural beauty, no appearance or indication of surgery. His broad knowledge and superior technical skills support his ability to convert your vision into reality. His mature operative judgment is the product of vast procedural experience. Combined with these assets, his peerless ethical standards and deep compassion make Dr. Laverson a professional you can trust with your most valuable possessions, your face and body. Because Dr. Laverson is an excellent surgeon, your operation here will be slow. Anesthesia is safe, so Dr. Laverson works harder and likely a bit longer for your best result. Operations he performs may last longer than similar operations performed by other surgeons. Designing the operation to meet your special needs rather than producing the same cookie-cutter result for everyone takes time. A superior level of care takes time. Detail takes time. Multiple layer suturing for stability and durability takes time. Visualizing nerves and other critical anatomy for precise surgery takes time. Checking and adjusting the impact of each intervention (iteration) and relationships between parts takes time. Artistically creating subtle, naturally beautiful contours from existing anatomy takes time. Re-positioning you to examine results while you’re upright takes time. Closure under magnification to conceal scars takes time. Quality and perfect execution take time. For Dr. Laverson, every procedure involves preparation, technical wizardry, and intense, continuous focused concentration till end.

Extremely satisfied with my results

After breastfeeding two babies, I decided to look into a breast augmentation. Dr. Laverson and his staff took wonderful care of me and answered all of my questions. The nurses took great care of me before and after the procedure and they called to check on me once I was home. I am extremely happy with my results. I feel much more confident in my body. Dr. Laverson did an amazing job and I cannot recommend him enough!

breast augmentation, natural look, over the muscle

Dr. Laverson and his entire team were amazing! He spent time with me and answered all of my questions. Dr. Laverson is a skilled surgeon with tons of experience. He listened to my desired result and helped me make the right decision about the type of implant and the best surgical procedure for my desired result. I would definitely come back for other procedures and have recommended Feel Beautiful to friends. Do not decide to go with another surgeon until you've gotten a consult from the team at Feel Beautiful.

Great surgeon. Dream results.

I’ve been waiting for years to treat myself to the figure of my dreams. Dr. Laverson made that dream my reality. He is a perfectionist, and you can trust his judgment and skill to guide you through every step of the journey and help you realize those results. He is that rare combination of a competent and kind surgeon. I have felt completely well-cared for and am thankful to have crossed paths with him and his staff.

Best experience I could have asked for!

I met with 3 different doctors and within minutes I knew I wanted to use Dr. Laverson for my abdominoplasty. I instantly felt comfortable and never doubted his expertise or had any concerns. His staff is amazing and the surgery itself went smoothly. Recovery was easier than anticipated, and Dr. Laverson was on-hand and quick to answer any texts I had wondering if something was normal.

Amazing detail-oriented work!

I attended multiple consultations when trying to decide what doctor to go with for breast augmentation. I am so pleased I took the time to do that because that enabled me to find Dr Laverson who was the perfect match for me. He was exceptionally patient as I asked him lots of questions. He was very detail oriented and explained everything to me that I could possibly need to know. He pointed out things that the other doctors I met with never did. He made sure I knew exactly what I was doing and that I was choosing the right breast size and profile for my body. Dr Laverson has a very clean, well-adorned office. While you might assume all plastic surgeons offices are clean, I can assure you there is a big difference in offices. The Feel Beautiful office is clean, refreshing, & beautiful. Dr Laverson obviously takes great pride in every aspect of his work. Having his own operating room was important to me as well.

Dr. Steven Laverson is one of a kind.

Dr. Laverson exceeded my expectations. He truly cares about you and your results. He is a dedicated, thoughtful, and compassionate Dr. Upon entering the medical office, the staff was kind and welcoming. Dr. Laverson took the time to answer all of my questions. He properly informed me about my procedure including pre-op, surgery and post-op. After my surgery, Dr. Laverson also followed up to ensure I was on a good road to recovery. Dr. Laverson and Courtney's professionalism, dedication and hard work made this whole process wonderful experience! They were also very easy to get a hold of and have questions answered right away.
Dr. Laverson is incredible and I would highly recommend Feel Beautiful San Diego Cosmetic Clinic to anyone looking for an exceptional Dr. and staff.

labiaplasty procedure experience

My experience at feel beautiful plastic surgery with Doctor Laverson was exceptional. At first i was so anxious with such an intimate procedure, however, Doctor Laverson made me feel so comfortable and gave me every confidence that my procedure would restore my confidence. I am so happy with the results and felt so taken care of with my follow up appointments. The level of care by both Dr.Laverson and his staff is phenomal and I recommend him to anyone I can.

Fat transfer to breast after implant removal

After having my breast implants removed in 2018 I was really missing having perky breasts and was referred to Dr. Laverson to ask about a fat transfer. Dr. L and his staff were so supportive and I really appreciate how conservative they were with what I wanted done. I wanted to look very natural but have more shape and volume. At about 2 months post opp I feel like they achieved the look I wanted and I'm very happy and feeling confident again! I highly recommend Dr. L as he listens closely to what you want and tries to enhance your beauty not change how you look completely.

I had an incredible experience!

I got a Labiaplasty done by Dr. Laverson and let me tell you, he did an incredible job! He is a true artist and knows what he's doing! I have been wanting this done since high school. I'm 26 years old with no kids and have always felt uncomfortable because of the extra loose skin (and I had a lot). From the moment I made my consultation to after my surgery I have felt so welcomed and cared for. Cherise in the front is incredible and will help answer any questions you have and Kourtney has the best bed side manner and was so sweet and kind during the procedure. When I was getting numbed up, her presence made everything better. Oh! did I mention the surgery itself was SO comfortable? I didnt feel a thing. Like seriously. Dr. Laverson has the coolest technique and uses this freeze spray before and as he is injecting the numbing medication which is truly incredible! Overall, I had an amazing experience and will definitely be back for more. Highly recommend!!!!

Amazing surgeon, great results, confident me :)

The initial consultation with Dr. Laverson was fantastic- he spent about 1 hr with me, answered every question thoroughly, the nurses praised his sterile technique, and I could tell I was in good hands. After surgery, he was always available to answer questions or have me pop in for a quick check. He is an experienced surgeon, and I am really happy with my results! I feel confident and sexy in my new skin, and my friends tell me they look natural and fit my body proportion well (I am very petite). I have residual numbness towards the bottom of my breasts (not nipples) 3 months post-op, and this may not resolve, however no other long-term effects so far. I am very happy with choosing Dr. Laverson for my BA.

The Perfect Result!

I would recommend Dr. Laverson 100 times over for breast augmentation. He listened to what I wanted for my desired outcome and took into account my concerns. He made recommendations, but never pushed his opinion on me. The recommendations he made were perfect and I’m so glad I listened to him. I’m 6 weeks out from surgery and am beyond ecstatic with my result!

Beautiful, clean, natural-looking results

I had a wonderful experience with my labiaplasty. Dr. Laverson is highly skilled and intuitive in regards to this procedure. He very clearly explained the surgical process that would lead to the healthiest and most aesthetically pleasing result. He explained the common risks of the procedure, as well as the techniques he uses to avoid them. He listened to exactly what I wanted (a natural and symmetrical tucked-in look) and definitely delivered. My healing process was smooth and linear and the post-care instructions/products minimized the discomfort. I was initially worried that the stitches would tear, that my skin would separate or heal abnormally, or that I would lose sensation, since I had read online about bad experiences of other labiaplasty patients from different offices. None of those things occurred with Dr. Laverson. Everything was executed beautifully and I have the aesthetic results I've always wanted with no negative side effects.

Extremely happy with my decision

From my initial consult with Dr Laverson I knew I was going to choose him as my surgeon. I had consulted with multiple plastic surgeons before my consult at Feel Beautiful and Dr Laverson put me the most at ease and I was most comfortable with the treatment plan he suggested. I thought I had an idea of what he would suggest because of my other consults (under the muscle implants and an anchor or lollipop lift and a tummy tuck, or extended tummy tuck as one dr suggested, muscle repair and lipo) but Dr Laverson was the first dr to recommend less invasive procedures. He recommended over the muscle implants and a donut lift, a tummy tuck and muscle repair but did not recommend lipo. This sealed the deal for me because it was obvious he didnt just care about selling more procedures but cared more about his patients and their recovery and results.

Breast Augmentation

Dr. Laverson is the most compassionate doctor I have ever had the pleasure to work with. I was nervous when first going in for my consultation and I immediately felt comfortable and safe when I spoke with Dr. Laverson. He cares about his clients and listens to make great recommendations that align with my vision. He made sure I felt comfortable and that it was symmetrical with my body composition so it could look natural. The follow-up visits after my initial procedure was a seamless process and I was always able to find time for an appointment. The front desk staff is so kind and matches the same passion Dr. Laverson has for his practice. I am beyond grateful and happy I went with Dr. Laverson for this procedure.

I couldn't be happier with the results!

Dr. Laverson is truly a gem. I had been visiting his office for years to get Botox treatments and one day randomly decided I wanted to do a complete overhaul on my body (midlife crisis!). After my consultation, I ended up booking a tummy tuck, breast lift, and arm lipo surgery with Dr. Laverson. I am now 2.5 months post-surgery and my results are beyond fantastic! Not only are my natural DDs now 'perky' (which they have never been), but he was also able to completely get rid of my unsightly tattoo during the tummy tuck procedure. Post-surgery I've been keeping the medical tape on my incisions and wearing my compression garments as advised, I know that helps a lot but the true artist behind it all is Dr. Laverson. His skill level is beyond top-notch and I would trust no other than him for my plastic surgery needs. His entire staff (callouts to Courtney and Cherise) are absolutely amazing as well!

Definitely Recommend!

After consultations with several other doctors I met Dr. Laverson and I knew immediately that I would trust him with my tummy tuck. He listened, did not try to upsell to more extensive procedures (as both previous surgeons had done), was very thorough and meticulous, set realistic expectations, supported me during every step of the process, had a really fantastic staff (Kourtney is amazing) and he's absolutely masterful at his art. It's been over a year since my surgery and I couldn't be happier with the finished product. My tummy is gorgeous!

Flat and Fantastic Tummy Tuck

Upon seeing Dr. Laverson's before and after gallery, I really wanted to do a consultation, then after meeting with him I knew I did not want any other doctor to do my tummy tuck. My surgery went smoothly and I have felt taken care of every step of the way during recovery. Best of all, the results are everything I expected and fitting into clothes feels amazing! Last but not least, everyone who works in the office from reception to the nurses are very friendly and communicative. I have had an all-around great experience at Feel Beautiful!
