Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Best place ever!
Out of all the options in the LA area, this is the place to go. The office is gorgeous and the staff members are always kind and helpful! Dr. Rivkin is so easy to talk to and he always goes over all of your questions with ease. I've seen a few of the nurses for neurotoxin treatments as well, and they were all excellent too! I can't see myself going anywhere else for my aesthetics needs. So happy to have found this place!

Couldn’t Be Happier!
I came to Dr Rivkin in hopes of achieving more of a balanced face and for recommendations on preventative treatments. Dr Rivkin injected my nose, chin and cheeks. Its exactly what I wanted! I wasn’t sure what treatments I needed prior to going in and really wanted recommendations from a professional and he did exactly that. Explaining why each treatment would be beneficial and how it would help me achieve my aesthetic goals. I am now managing my skin with regular microneedling treatments and facials that he recommended as well. The office is always so nice and helpful whenever I call/come in. Every interaction is nothing but delightful and im always excited to come back!

I really appreciate the attention to detail when it comes to Dr Rivkin and the staff in the office. Everyone is always attentive and I feel very comfortable when I come in for any procedures with them. This is the only aesthetics practice I'll go to in LA!!!

If you are interested in liquid rhinoplasty, look no further. He is the only one who can perform it with permanent filler - Bellafill, so there is no need to come back and get it again. I highly recommend him; he is very professional and knowledgeable.

I wouldn't go anywhere else. I have been seeing Dr. Rivkin for almost 15 years. I always takes his time , I have never felt rushed like with other doctors in the past. I have never met a more honest doctor in my life , I never feel like I am being sold on anything, he has told me multiple times that I didn't need something I thought I did and after looking into it more he was right.

Dr. Rivkin is totally inappropriate and unprofessional. He kept me in his office waiting for two hours and then rescheduled the appointment because he was going to teach nurses injection. I am Professional and my time is highly valuable so I am very insulted and offended that he would make a professional wait for two hours waste my time only to send me someone in his office asking me to pay him thousands of dollars in advance of even having chance to see him and ask questions about the procedure.

I paid over $1100 for injectables and, after 2 weeks, my skin looked exactly as it did before I had it done. After much research, I found someone else who did an amazing job. I took photos for Dr. Rivkin, who emailed me back a dismissive response, and clearly had no intention of taking this seriously. Is there no accountability when a procedure is performed with no results? Doesn't seem right to me.

I have been seeing Dr Rivkin for 5 years now. He is amazing as he has kept me feeling less tired and haggard. He's a miracle worker. I came to him with bags and dark circles and jowls. All have disappeared for years now. Getting a facelift versus getting Botox or filler's has been a great option for me And as I age he makes it less painful for me. Thank you Dr. of can you know I love you Mary Gleeson
