“I look great!”
Dr. Sato did my BBL in early June and I am amazed by the results. I have never in my life received so many compliments within a short period of time. During my consultation, Dr. Sato explained the process and answered all my questions. She provided honest feedback about my expectations and was able to do everything she said would. I'm extremely happy with my body (a little too happy) and very excited to see the end results.

“Made me feel very comfortable with my experience!”
Dr. Sato was great! I went in for a breast augmentation consultation and had a lot of questions. She made sure to answer every question and spoke to me in a way that made me feel comfortable in a sense that I felt I was talking with a friend, but also in a sense that I knew would be in good hands. The surgery went very well and recovery was as smooth as a recovery from surgery can be! I've had several post op visits since the surgery (3 months ago) and Dr. Sato has been great at answering all of my questions and letting me know what steps I should be taking at home to help the healing process. She has also made her self available for me to contact outside of her office if I ever think something is wrong/need a quick question answered. I definitely recommend her!

“A Miracle Transformation”
All my life I've done for others and during that time I completed neglected ME (mentally and physically). Fast forward 26 years later after the birth of my only child and 9 years of marriage, I decided to focus on ME.
I researched for a year on Realself and always read positive reviews about Dr. Sato. I scheduled a consultation and she is amazing. I love her beside manner, candor and most importantly her honesty. She will only perform procedures that are safe despite the patient's desparation to have it ALL done at once.
My first procedure (360-lipo/BBL) was absolutely AMAZING! My results were better than expected...not to toot my own horn but I look AmAzInG and I'm not even done yet!
Dr. Sato is the bomb! She spends quality time with you during consultations and office visit. She even provides her PERSONAL cell number to contact her anytime during recovery!
What are you waiting for? Schedule your consultation with Dr. Sato ASAP! #you will not regret it
