“Desperately seekig my tummy back”
Dr. Smith was absolutely amazing. By far the most professional doctor I have ever encountered. He is kind and courteous. From the minute I stepped foot into his office he made me feel comfortable and at total ease with my decision to have a tummy tuck. He took his time to explain the whole process to me from beginning to end. He answered all my questions and explained all the risks involved. His anesthesiologist is also amazing. He made me feel completely comfortable and even called me pre and post op to make sure I was ok. Now that is professionalism at its best. The whole staff, esp Shannon, were awesome. I loved this experience. I would do it again in a heartbeat, no regrets. And I look amazing. Dr. Smith gave me something back that I haven't had in years, confidence.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!

So I would like to end this review by saying that if your looking for great results, best surgeon, awesome staff and complete 5 Star treatment, then you need to see Dr. Lane Smith!

I have been a patient of Dr. Smith for five years. I am still with him because obviously I consider him and his staff the Best of the Best! All procedures done at Smith Plastic Surgery that I wanted went far above and beyond my expectations! I recently had the wonderful experience of having a vampire face lift done last month. The results were outstanding! So many compliments from my fellow RN'S. Thanks Heather for a labor of love job; and thanks Yvette for always displaying so much support, and down to earth humor whenever I am there! I will be a customer for many years to come. My over all experience is a 5 STAR RATING. Barb Louis, Palo Alto, Ca.

I couldn't be more happy with my results. I had a breast enlargement (34C to 34DDD) and most people think they are completely natural. He recommended the perfect size and they are 100% symmetrical. Great work, Dr.! The only issue I had with his office are the wait times. For all 4 appointments I had with him from start to finish, I waited for over 45 mins after checking in. Even my surgery appointment was started late. Staff was great, but they're never on time. Major downfall. However, the amazing results topped the waiting for sure. Just take caution when going to his office. Expect to lose a few hours each time. But, if you want great results, waiting will not be a problem.

I am one month out from my Mini TT. I am absolutely happy! Even though it was not a full abdominoplasty (full TT), I'm amazed by the outcome. The swelling is resolving, and I can see the improvement every day. The first two days after surgery were the worst, mostly because I was trying to sleep/rest in a couch. After reading the other people experience’s, my husband bought me a recliner, and it was the best decision ever! I took all my medications, and followed all the instruction given by the office staff. Some advices: 1. I would recommend that you be in good physical shape prior to this surgery. You will be using your leg muscles after surgery, and you’ll be glad if they are strong. 2. Make sure you have all the necessary supplies on hand before the surgery day. 3. Let people take care of you. 4. Do not get constipated! 5. Finally, be patient, it is going to take a time to heal. Dr. Lane Smith is an excellent surgeon, who listened to my request, and then discussed all my alternatives to the procedure. Moreover, one of my biggest fears regarding surgeries was in regards anesthesia. I have to highlight Dr. Crowlie’s expertise. He made me feel very safe. He called me prior to the surgery and explained every detail. It was great for once waking up from anesthesia without nausea, or shaking. Thank you Dr. Crowlie! The office staff, the nurse, very professionals! Dr. Smith is an artist, a genius in his field! I highly recommend him! Good luck to all the girls that make their dream comes true! Thank you!

He was very honest about expectations and helped guide me in the decisions I made regarding the procedures I wanted. I have done 5 procedures with him over two years and I would recommend him to anyone. He has COMPLETELY transformed my body and given me back the piece of my self esteem that has been dormant. I had a tummy tuck, breast lift, breast implants, liposuction in five areas, outer thigh lift and the Brazilian butt lift. You can hardly see my scars (he is using a new technique that is Amazing to minimize scars) and my shape is better now than when I was 18 (I am now 39 with 5 kids). He is definitely the best in the area! Also, his staff is just as talented and wonderful to work with.

I've had a liposuction and fat transfer to buttlock. I think Dr. Smith had done a great job on my buttlock, and now I have a full and cute butt that I'm so proud of. The only thing that I think can be improved is that I wish he had taken out more fat than he did on my liposuction part. I hope later he can do a revision surgery and not charge me. I also had a rhinoplasty and upper eyelid blepharoplasty by him. He had done a great job on that too. After I've recovered from the surgery some time of my nose and eyes, I took some pictures to show my parents in China without telling them anything. They complemented me: energetic, well rested and charming (which I have never heard from them before). They have no idea why do I look better now than I was (and never even guessed that I've had plastic surgery done). This is the reaction I want from my friends and relatives. Everybody wants a beautiful and nature looking self even if one has done plastic surgeries. Doctor Smith is a very talented person not only in the medical field but also in a very artistic way. Now I'm picking myself again, trying to find more imperfection on my body to have him fix them for me. I'm so addicted to his magical work. His staffs are very nice and pleasant, nurse Bree is lovely. I just can't have enough of this place and the whole plastic surgery thing. Thank you so much to make me a better version of myself and I feel much happier now. Just wish I had discovered you guys earlier. But I'm still happy I found you now. Thanks again. S.Y.Z.

I've had several procedures performed by Dr. Smith. I look as good as I feel thanks to get my pre-pregnancy body back! The results were exactly as expected and I absolutely love Jessica who works with Dr. Smith. I did have to wait at my consultation a little longer than anticipated; but it was well worth it. Best surgeon in Las Vegas!
