Dr. Z & his nurse, Cindy are a dream team!!! They genuinely care and have a great bedside manner. Sought Dr. Z after a previous not so successful breast augmentation surgery. He corrected another surgeon’s “work” and made improvements that I am very happy with. He recommended placing the implants on top of the muscle and I am glad that we went that route. More
I am uber picky and he did an amazing job. - I'm 2 weeks post-op from TT w MR & Breast reduction and lift from Dr. Song. Can I just tell you he exceeded my expectations and they were high? I am Uber picky and he did an amazing job. I'm so glad I went with my gut and chose him. Don't sleep on Dr. Song, he's the GOAT!!!! More
Dr. SONG gave me my confidence back! As a mom of 3, I had a belly hang and big saggy breasts from breast feeding and it took a toll on my confidence. I am Uber picky and did a lot of research and consults before choosing Dr. Song. He has an amazing bed side manner and reassured me and listened to all the things I was particular about- especially the way I wanted my tummy tuck to look. He did my tummy tuck and breast reduction and lift. My results blew me away. I can’t believe this is my body! I trust him 100%. He even gives you his personal cell number to contact anytime and has always answered my questions right away! Don’t sleep on Dr. Song, he’s the GOAT! More

My experience with Dr. Zwiren has been nothing but amazing. From my consultation to post op appointments, he is always on top of everything. He is very thoughtful and meticulous with his work. I am so much more confident with myself and I am so thankful to have had a great doctor and team of nurses to stick alongside my journey! More
My recovery has been easy and better than I imagined. Dr. Song has talented hands (thank God), and my results look very natural. Everyday I wake up I am so impressed with his work. I would highly recommend him to my friends. From the consultation on the phone due to Covid, to the last office visit he was always attentive, addressed any of my concerns, and made me feel he really cared and not just wanted my money. A big shout out also goes to Cindy H. for the outstanding customer service from the initial call, scheduling, and answering my questions she made me feel so welcoming and so easy to talk too. More
I am so glad I chose Dr. Stephenson as a doctor. I have been to so many doctors and I was so uneasy and scared about the whole process. The day i had my consultation with Dr. Stephenson i knew i made the right decision. He made me feel comfortable and i had no worries at all. If i had to do it all over again i would. I am in love with my results and my healing process has been a breeze. Everyone here at Prima Center for plastic surgery are very pleasant and friendly. If you are trying to decide where to have your procedure look no further. More
Dr. Nakano and his staff are no less than guardian angels. Dr. Nakano, Lisa and Adrianna are number one in my book. I have been self conscious about my chest since I was 9years old and I am 33 now. As a male I have not swam without a shirt or slept in just boxers ever. I had my surgery on December 23, 2020 and those things are already in my sight. I have never had a male chest and I am beyond grateful and forever in debt. More
2nd Time with Dr Song!!!! - Hey there Good People!!I am so happy to have made the decision to have a breast lift (reduction). The girls have always been DDDs for as long as I can remember.I am not going to know how to act with a C or D cup...lolMore to come!!! More
I recently had upper eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) at Prima Center performed by Dr. Song. I could not be more pleased with the whole experience from the consultation through the recovery process! My eyelids are no longer saggy, look natural and make me look and feel years younger. I developed Bell's Palsy on the left side of my face as a result of a fall 7 years ago. Dr. Song was able to make both eyes appear symmetrical and the lift even eliminated the daily irritation in my left eye.! Dr. Song's level of skill and expertise is exceptional. More
My experience with Dr Stephenson was perfect ! I got a breast reduction! Everything went smoothly ! My nurse Sarah was amazing ! This was my first surgery and it was the best experience ! Would definitely recommend! I’m super pleased with my results ! More
At Prima, Dr. Stephenson, Sarah and the team are phenomenal. They are attentive, caring and understanding. Dr. Stephenson was not only very detailed with me during the initial consultation he remained that way through the entire journey. He listened to my needs and addressed the fears and concerns I had while in the end completing some awesome work. Sarah has been overall a star and they work well as team. She is knowledgeable and you can bet they are on the same page when it comes to making you feel welcomed and ensuring all needs and questions are aswered timely! I can’t leave out the front desk and surgery staff, Cindy, Stacy and Angela all amazing! Overall I would definitely recommend Prima for any surgical needs as well as use them again. I have ended my surgical journey with them, and I’m only doing follow ups now, however they still have maintained the highest professionalism as well as making me feel and look my best! All while making themselves available! I personally have to say thank you and I appreciate you all for putting up with a high maintenance patient like me! Kaye More
If you want the BEST Plastic surgeon it would be hands down Dr. Earl Stephenson 😀 He is a Dr. that knows what he's doing and the end result is perfect 👍 And he is a Dr. that cares about his patients and he actually listens to what you have to say!! He is so down to earth and very easy to talk to I Love Him to pieces!! He's the Best!!!So if you truly want the BEST More
I can only say that Dr.Song and Adriana and the rest of the team did amazing. From the first phone call to the after surgery I’ve received the best care. It’s only few weeks sence I had the surgery and I feel amazing. Thank you Dr. Song and thank you Adriana. More
Looking for the FLAT SIDE!!! - Where do I start now...I stalked Realself when I had my breast done. I heard great things about doctors in Miami (as long as you can withstand the wait times). Now I'm baaaack for a tummy tuck!! I wanted to go to Dr. Hunsaker (or however you spell it) at C.G. Cosmetics. However, I have heard so many horror stories where patients needed to go back to their original doctor due to whatever complications they were having. That's an 11 hour drive for me and I wouldn't be able to stay more than 5 days. Soooo I researched doctors in Atlanta, GA and found quite a few but none with CONSISTANT work! That was very important to me. That's how I found Dr. Song. I came across a few reviews from women who had seen him and I was always looking at their pics like "WOW"!! I even went to the website and pulled up Tummy Tuck before and after pics of his and his colleagues and let me tell you, Dr. Song can work miracles!!! Now I'm a thick chick weighing in now at 215 lbs so I thought I wasn't even going to be a candidate. I am 5'4", so I'm thick and short LOL!! I was nervous to even reach out to a doctor because I felt I would be rejected and be turned away due to my BMI being over 30. Not Dr. Song. When I have my verbal consultation with him on yesterday 10.1.2020, he made me feel so comfortable. I sent in my pics to his office last week and got contacted by his PA Cindy (who is sooo lovely and sweet). I paid the $75 consultation fee after completing paperwork with her and sending pics. (sorry for being all over the place). Buuut back to speaking to Dr. Song. The call lasted about 10 mins and he discussed the procedure in great detail. Everything from the cut and lipo and his expectations. He can see my true figure under these layers of blubber and he advised me that he can meet my expectations. The only extra thing I would have to work on is this bra roll. Ewww I hate that about my back but I really started working out and jogging again very recently. I just gotta keep it up. I got my quote this morning and there are a few things I want to discuss before I post the quote. I'm looking to get snatched in January 2021 (my birthday month). I'll post updates once I make some calls to the office and discuss some thangs!! More
In December 2019, Dr. Stephenson was my surgeon for a breast reduction. He provided excellent care throughout the entire procedure. He always informed me about what I needed to do and what was coming up.. I highly recommend Dr. Stephenson and Prima Center for Plastic Surgery. More
They are the BEST! I truly cannot say enough about this practice. I went in for a consult with Dr. Song, and his calm energy immediately dissipated any of my concerns. He listened to my areas of concern and explained the best options for me. Never did he "suggest" an area to correct or imply that I wasn't perfect as is. I decided on a tummy tuck and lipo. Not only did he meet my expectations, I can truly say he exceeded them! I have my 18 yo tummy again! woo! As a health professional myself, I was given the utmost pre- and post-operative care. This brings me to his surgical technologists, Adriana + Kate. Well, let me just say that I trust them with my life! They, as does Dr. Song, have the kindest bedside manner, attention to detail, and true attentiveness to my concerns and needs. I always felt like I was priority, even though I know they have other patients! You can tell the practice has exceptional staff, leadership, and they are happy. Every step of the process-- from consultation to billing to scheduling to surgery to post-op and so on-- was seamless. I commend Prima Center for Plastic Surgery, Dr. Song, Kate, Adriana, and the staff for a refreshing and exemplary model of medical care. 5 stars all the way! More

What a great experience I just had with Dr. Zwiren and his team at Prima Center!! I received outstanding products for my face to help achieve the look I wanted. After careful consideration, he determined what fillers and injectables were right for me and I was out in a short amount of time. Thank you to Dr. Z, to his wonderful nurse Cindy who always makes me feel appreciated and at ease, and to Cindy at checkout who helped me save money with my Brilliant Distinctions points as well as with Aspire rewards! Thank you Prima Center for such an amazing experience today! More

I had my first lip fillers and I was petrified. Dr. Stefenson really helped me ease into it. He spent a lot of time with me and made sure I was comfortable with the procedure. I’m very happy with him and his staff. I will be a regular there! Thank you so much!!! More
Pick Dr Song! - Dr Song charges reasonable prices and treats you like his one and only surgery case. At my consult in March 2020, he showed me a video of the tummy tuck (TT) and lipo (upper stomach and flanks) procedure. He was honest that without getting the back lipo, I would still have the back rolls that I walked in with. That was fine because I never wanted a vixen look. I just wanted my body back from 10 years ago. I signed consent forms and I paid the deposit to have surgery in May. The next day Covid 19 exploded everywhere and I was sick to my stomach . But I had faith that everything would work out. And it did! Lockdown was lifted May 1st, mandatory Covid 19 testing came back negative a week before surgery. Pre op was 10 days before surgery; because I was having surgery at the his surgery center, I didn’t have to do pre op blood tests, pcp clearance or xrays. I am 36 yrs old, fairly healthy mom of 4 so I didn’t mind. I had a full workup a few months ago previously my pcp anyway. At preop I was given my prescriptions including 10 blood thinner syringes that I had to self administer (I hate needles but you barely feel it). I had gained weight over the quarantine and he voluntarily said he’d do some back lipo for NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE!!! That’s how you know the Dr cares about the final result, not just money! I was nervous the day of surgery but his nurses were great! So nice and accommodating! The pain was excruciating after surgery but it’s major surgery. The nurse gave me one Percocet post op but it did nothing. Just be prepared Dr Song told me after surgery that it would all be worth it and it was! He even called and texted me on a Sunday evening to make sure the pharmacist fixed my pain prescriptions!!! I have my body back and self esteem on 1000. I was back working at my home desk job a week after surgery. I would definitely recommend Dr Song for TT/lipo!!! More
Dr. Stephenson is simply the BEST!! He made sure that all of my questions were answered and that I was completely comfortable with the procedures I choose. The Prima Center staff were welcoming and very professional. Choosing Dr. Stephenson and Prima Center for Plastic Surgery is one of the best decisions I've ever made. More
Thank you Dr. Mike Song! - I have been wanting a mommy makeover for several years. I workout at least 3 days a week but I could never get rid of the loose skin on my stomach that came from my pregnancies. While researching mommy makeovers I came across this site and I'm so grateful that I did. There was one doctor that really stood out to me (Dr. Mike Song) so inboxed the women that had work done by him. They assured me that I didn't need to search any further. I called Prima Center for Plastic Surgery last May 2019,and immediately knew that I made the right choice. Cindy was my coordinator, she's professional, sweet and hilarious. The entire staff is wonderful. On July 12th, 2020 I flew from Ohio to Georgia. And on July 13, 2020 I finally got to put the voices with the faces when I went for my pre op appointment. Dr. Song is down to earth, he really cares about his patients. The butterflies in my stomach went away after I met him. I knew after meeting him, my nurse Jessica and my anesthesiologist Adriana that I was going to love my results. Due to Covid everyone including myself had on masks from the beginning until the end. I loved how the staff handled the Covid situation, they didn't allow anyone in the lobby, they took my temperature as soon as I walked in the door. All of their attention was focused on me. My surgery was on July 16, 2020 just a few weeks ago, one of the happiest days of my life. The only thing I remember from that day is walking into Prima Center excited than waking up in my Airbnb looking down at my hot body lol!! I do remember Dr.Song calling my friend which was my caregiver to check on me and he gave us his cell phone number to call or text if we needed him. I'm still impressed by that. My stitches and one drain was removed at my post op appointment, July 23, 2020.Recovery has been going really well. Dr. Song made sure he kept in touch. He even text me while I was at the airport on my way back home to Ohio on July 24, to make sure that I injected my lovenox before boarding. Like I mentioned before he really cares about his patients. I absolutely love my results! My incision is low and thin. My boobs are perfect!!!! My stomach is smooth and flat!! I'm still recovering but my confidence is through the roof lol! More
Dr. Nakano provided a strong and compassionate relationship at my visit. We worked together to determine my desired outcome and I trust him for all my future cosmetic needs. His skills are unparallel to any prior physician I have visited. More

Had a Tummy Tuck with Dr. Zwiren. My experience was awesome. Everyone at the center was extremely helpful and nice. Never needed the super pain killer (only ibuprofen and the pain pump) and was up and moving around the house the next day. Less than a week later I adventured out to Walmart with my husband. Less than 2 weeks post op I was going for walks and shortly after that I could workout with modifications. Five weeks out and I’m looking awesome, even with some swelling in my abdomen, and doing pretty much everything I could do before surgery. So glad I had this procedure! More
I highly recommend Dr. Earl Stephenson, if you are looking for an exceptional plastic surgeon. His bedside manner and patient care impressed me the most. He truly listened to my concerns. I had a breast reduction/lift due to back issues. I was so impressed and pleased with my results that I recommended Dr. Stephenson to two other friends, who also had the same procedure. They, too, were extremely pleased with their results and care. Aside from his expertise and beautiful work, he also has a wonderful spirit about him and makes you feel at ease instantly. That was important to me and one of the main reasons I went forward with the procedure. More

I was very nervous going into my initial visit with Dr.Song. But he was extremely friendly, calm and understanding. During my virtual consult, he literally stayed on the phone with me for 2 hours and answered all my questions. I felt confident that he and I were on the same page in terms of the results I wanted. The staff, especially Adriana and Cindy were also incredibly helpful and sweet. I’m post op 1 week now and am thrilled with the results. I highly recommend this doctor and his team to anyone looking to get work done! More
This place will always have a place in my heart, because of the wonderful Dr. Song.I first came here with my mom, who was diagnosed with breast cancer. She came here for breast reconstruction. She had the TRAM flap.My mom was very nervous about having the surgery, but got excited when she found out that she was getting a free tummy tuck as well.My mom had a problem with anxiety, and Dr. Song helped her along the way.Dr Song is the most compassionate doctor that I have ever known. He made my mom feel like she took top priority. He took the time for her.Soooo, me being jealous of my moms perfect boobs, I just had to get mines done too! I was treated with the same importance as my mom. Dr Song explained to me the whole procedure in its entirety.He did a marvelous job! Unfortunately, three years later, my left breast deflated for some reason. I have saline, so it was ok. I called the office and made an appointment. When I went to this appointment, I was so emotional. I hadn’t been there since my mom had passed. Dr. Song saw me crying and started crying right with me.He told me that my boobs were still under warranty. He waived his fee, and said that I just had to pay for the fee for the surgery area and anesthesia! What an awesome doctor.Anesthesia is expensive and he asked if I wanted to do the reimplantation with only local. I said "yes."The day of surgery, I was numbed up and didn’t feel a darn thing! I was amazed!I LOVE this place. Absolutely a blessing to my family.Thank you Dr. Song for all that you’ve done and all that you do. You are amazing. More
Dr. Song is the best! He did breast reduction surgery on my 19 year old daughter, she suffered from back and neck pain because her breast where big for her body's frame. She had the surgery in December, Dr. Song was very professional and to the point. He is a great surgeon, we love the results, no complications, recovery time was good and she looks awesome and is very happy. Highly recommend D. Mike Song. More

I've dedicated my all to my kids and now that they are of age I decided that for my big 40th birthday I will do something for myself. After doing my research on a few doctors I came across dr. Song. I called and made my conclusion (75.00 fee) (1-17-2020) to meet with him for a tummy tuck muscle repair and lipo of the flanks. The facility was nice and quiet also very clean the staff was very professional and well mannered they even offered me water or soda of course I took the soda lol! Once in the back, they took pictures then dr. Song came in and did the examination he went over everything and answered all my questions with no hesitation. Once I was done with the dr his surgery coordinator Cindy (she is such a doll very loving person) came in and we went over pricing (7,250.00) once everything was done and I left the office I was much convince dr. Song would be my surgeon. 4 days later I called and payed my 500.00 deposit my surgery is booked for April 3, 2020 stay tuned for my pre-op appointment update and pictures. More

I am 5 weeks post op and I can't say enough good things about Dr. Song and his nurse. My abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) went perfectly and I am ecstatic with my results. From day 1 Prima Center was great. Making an appointment was easy, front desk ladies and finance lady are very nice and friendly. Dr. Song has great bedside manners and his nurse Adriana even remembers what is personally going on in your life. You feel like they really listen to what you want. I recommend them 100%. Thank you Dr. Song, Adriana and Prima Center More
I have had Dr. Song preform two different surgeries , and he is by far the best. Dr.Song has a wonderful bed side manner , and is very knowledgeable. I would recommend Prima plastic surgery as well as Dr. Song and his wonderful staff they are top notch .. I will continue to use Dr Song for any of my cosmetic procedures in the future. More

Cindy my coordinator is awesome. I will be making my deposit in the next few weeks and I will update with surgery date and pictures! More
This place is amazing! Doctor Z is talented, down to Earth, and won't recommend a procedure unless he feels it is necessary. Nurse Cindy is friendly, and very competent. Najda, the aesthetician, is a miracle worker! She has made my skin look like a newborn's. The staff at the front desk are friendly and welcoming as well. I love Prima and won't go anywhere else! More
I initially was scheduled and deposit was made with another surgeon in town but for some reason I had an uneasy feeling & was feeling very nervous & unsure about the procedure being done. For that reason I decided to make a consultation appointment w/Dr. Stephenson & that was probably the best move ever. I promise after that first consultation w/him, all my doubts and fears went right out the door. I couldn't be more happy w/his services and the genuine care he has for me as a patient; and I'm 100% sure he makes all his patients feel this way. Not just him, the whole staff is great. I would refer them to everyone I know!! More

32 yo Mom of two, Mommy Makeover - I'm a 32 yo Mom, of two precious kids. I breastfed both babies and lets just say, they left my boobs looking like "quarters in a tube sock". Lol I've had a very hard time getting my body back from pregnancy and I've been considering this surgery for years. My surgery was January 3, 2020. I had a breast lift with 450cc in each implant, tummy tuck w muscle repair and lipo to sides, mons area and under arms.As I'm starting this review, I'm only 2wpo but already sooooo happy with my results and I cannot wait to see where I am at the 6 month mark!

He truly cares for his patient's and is VERY kind and caring. More
Dr. Song was fantastic. He essentially corrected a difficult problem that had plagued me for many decades. He was skillful, kind, caring, professional, and a good listener. He answered all my questions and I never felt rushed. His staff and facility are fantastic. I cannot thank him enough. More
Dr. Nakano is an exceptional surgeon with whom I hold in highest regard. He provided me with the best outcome and I am so happy with the results. He is most kind and generous in answering questions and concerns. The aftercare has been equally impressive and I wish to offer a special thank you to both Wanda and Lisa for their professional assistance. Dr. Nakano is the best! More
I 100% recommend this place! Dr Song did an emergency surgery on my son after his car accident. I recognized right away how thorough and detailed he was. He kept me informed every step of the way. I was looking into enhancing my body and knew right away where to go! I have gone for 2 different surgeries and can't be happier. Dr Song is amazing! I feel very comfortable there and they have fulfilled all my needs and requests. His assistant Adriana is the best! The whole staff is great! Very happy customer! More

Dr Song's bedside manner is awesome - After 2 children and some weight lost of 30 pounds my boobs were awful lol. After trying to lift them with weight training, it just did not work. So backed to Dr Song I go. After a great consult we decided to aim for a full C maybe D cup. Dr Song bedside manner is awesome. He wanted to make sure I was comfortable with the scarring before agreeing to the procedure. Due to the fact, when I walked in I only wanted a breast augmentation and didn't want any scars but with the amount of loose skin, he suggested my the best option would be a lift with the augmentation. So I trusted his professional opinion and am extremely satisfied. Once again he worked his magic. More

Tummy tuck, MR, lipo of flanks - I am SO glad I did this surgery and went with Dr. Song. From the consult, to the Pre-op, post ops and results I am VERY happySeptember 13 I had my TT... it was $7500 but I did add exparel (which was $400). That price including everything (including a binder and 2 compression garments). I had to pay for my prescriptions but insurance covered most of it.I just had my 2 week post op yesterday. Everything is healing well and I am feeling really good .. recovery was not as bad as I thought it would be. Pictures are day of surgery and two weeks after. I am still really swollen but I am already loving what I see and can't wait to see the end results More
Pre-op appointment with Dr. Song - I had my pre op today. They checked hemoglobin and I passed. Adriana (the nurse) had a check list of all the info we needed to go through. We went over prescription medications, anti-nausea, Percocet, Antibiotics, muscle relaxer and lovenox. Explain what to expect surgery day. Post op care for drains and how to wear binder. After the binder I will start stage 1 than stage 2 garments. Than Dr. Song came in and explain where the incision would be, Mr repair and lipo to the flank. I'm also have chin lipo and inner thigh lipo. He explain where those incision would be. Asked if I had any other question. Which I didn't, because I was so nervous. They said don't hesitate to call or email, if I think of any other questions. I will review all the info again, because there was so much information. Payment in full no turning back now. Wish me luck. :) More
Highly Recommend Dr. Song - I had lots of loose skin in my pannus area from weight loss and carrying twins. Dr. Song was knowledgable, kind, and took his time with me. He and his staff made the whole process feel seamless and I'm thrilled with my results. I am now able to wear bottoms without having to cover my lower abdomen. The recovery time was much less than anticipated and I was back to work within a month. The first two weeks post op were the hardest, but it was worth it! Dr. Song's bedside manner is impeccable and he truly cares for his patients. His nurses, Adriana & Kate, were super sweet and made me feel as ease while I was in the office. My scar is healing nicely and my husband is shocked at how great the scar turned out. If you are considering a panniculectomy/ abdominoplasty, I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Dr. Mike Song. I'll definitely be going back for future procedures. More
Dr. Song - I've had over 5 consultation and I'm sold on Dr.Song for my TT but now I'm confused on if I should do lipo and bbl first or TT first. He was very patient with all my questions I had and went into detail about my concerns with Keloids. I really also liked that he put the drains in our hip and not on your vagina. More
Breast Augmentation with Mastopexy - I highly recommend Dr Song and his friendly staff! I'm 21yrs old and had a breast augmentation (485cc implants) with a much needed Mastopexy (breast lift), done on April 12, 2019. I'm currently four months out and am loving my results!!! More
Dr Stephenson and his staff made my entire experience one that I’ll never forget. I had a abdominoplasty in 4/2019 and my results exceeded my expectations. His staff knows you by name, they’re always welcoming and that sets the tone for the entire visit. Dr Stephenson is always available to answer any questions you may have, there’s someone on call 24 hrs. I’ve recommended my family and friends to Dr Stephenson and he never disappoints. I’ve just celebrated my 50 th birthday and was able to wear a beautiful dress for the first time since having children. Thanks Dr Stephenson, you’re patient, kind, knowledgeable, always smiling and so much more.. you’ve restored my confidence, given me a new outlook on life and I will be forever grateful.

For many years I carried real huge breast (40H) causing severe neck and back pain. My bras were expensive, $85.00 to be exact. I been to many consultations for a breast reduction with several doctors who all recommended the following: lose weight, change your meal plan, and exercise. However having such large breast prevented me from completing certain workouts (jumping jacks, sit ups, running) and wearing my seatbelt correctly while operating my vehicle. I don’t remember the plastic surgeon who referred me to Dr. Stephenson, but I can’t thank him enough. Dr. Stephenson was the one I’d been looking for since the beginning. Consultation was scheduled in February and my surgery took place in April. The results are remarkable! Dr. Stephenson is very specific about his work, informative of all surgical procedures, and recovery orders. Wasn’t a question I asked that he didn’t or couldn’t answer. The best part is, I no longer have neck or back pain. I would recommend him to anyone.Thanks Dr. Stephenson More
Surgery done! I can't wait to see what's underneath the binder. - Hello all, I had my tummy tuck surgery with Dr. Song on 7/26 with the Exparel shot. Today I am 3 days post op and for the most part I feel okay. The binder gets really uncomfortable overnight and I feel really tight, but that's to be expected. Thankfully, I only received one drain and it's already slowing down. So far, so good and I'm happy I went through with it. I can't wait to see what's underneath the binder. I'm still taking all my meds along with 1000 mg of vitamin C and my vitamin B complex. Has anyone experienced a bubbly type feeling in their stomach post op? This started yesterday near the pubic line but I've also felt it in the middle. More
Loving my Tummy - If you are considering a Tummy Tuck I would definitely suggest it. Best money I have ever spent. The only think I don’t like is the swelling. It’s been about 3 months and I do still get swelling especially at the end of the day so wear your garment. Dr. Song did a great job. The recovery wasn’t bad at all. I was back at work in 12 days. I was still tight but no pain at all. More
Awesome. I highly recommend Dr. Mike Song - I highly recommend Dr. Mike Song. Very friendly staff.

Standard Tummy Tuck and lipo of the Flanks - I been researching for long time on TT, I was told by my liver Dr. not to go overseas as this is an important surgery, I came across Primacare Duluth on the American Association of Plastic Surgery, I started checking on pics for different Drs. and the pictures for Dr. Song caught my eyes, well I did a lot of search online and I end it up on real self, wow comments on this blog makes me positive about what I will go through! I finally met Dr. Song Monday July 8th 2019 and he is a charming humble person answered all my questions and gave me his personal card for additional ones, he recommended a full TT, I am just waiting on permission from my job to be able to call and set up my date for TT, I will keep you guys posted since I found this blog really really helpful if you need a little push for it.

Why did I wait so long ? Ext TT and MR - Dr. Song and his staff are amazing. So happy to feel like a normal person again( still healing 4 weeks post op).

Tummy Tuck/Lipo/Muscle Repair - My surgery is just over 2 months from now and I am beyond ready. I chose Dr.Song not really based on extensive reviews. I just came across his name at the right time.

Dr. Song is Great and I'm a Scary Cat. You Will Be in Good Hands! - I had my TT and MR with Dr Song on April 12th and I must say I was a nervous wreck. I was so scared I was literally ready to jump off the table when I laid down for my surgery, however by the time I was about to say forget it. I was awake in the recovery room. When I woke up, I was cold and super emotional. I guess I was just happy I was ok. So, I did pay extra for the esporal. I'm glad I did because I don't recall having much pain. Just super tight and uncomfortable because you cant cough or use your stomach muscles for a while. Then you have to keep dumping the drains, which my hubby did for me. I was only on the pain meds for about three days. Dr. Song was great. I literally have no complaints at all. I do get swelling and had really bad constipation so take stool softeners and wear your garment. The swelling is mostly in the evening and the constipation is going away. I'm also about 5 weeks post-op . I'm from California, so I stayed in Georgia for 9 days before heading back. On the plane ride home I just got up and walked quite a bit, because I was swelling and got someone to wheel me in wheel chair at the airport so I didn't have to walk much. It was really helpful. More
Can't say enough wonderful things about the staff and Dr. Stephenson! I recieved a cancer diagnosis last November and they have been there through all of my recovery. I feel like they gave me my life and hope back! Dr. Stephenson has gone above and beyond to repair the damage to my face and make me beautiful.....at least in my opinion 😁😁😁 Would recommend them to all of my family and friends and anyone else who needs help with trauma or reconstruction, or just a little something to make you look and feel better!!

I made it to the flat side! - I had a tummy tuck/muscle repair/lipo. My expeirence was great. I arrived at 0630, my vitals were taking, changed into gown and footies, urine pregnancy test completed.

My tummy tuck (28 y/o female, no kids) - Posted a photo of me sitting. As you can see, my stomach is huge. It’s been that way since I was 10 years old. I literally have never allowed anyone to see my stomach, not even my boyfriends or mother. I’m 5’5 and weighed 110 at one point and STILL had a huge stomach, so I’m sure this thing won’t go anywhere with diet and exercise.I went with dr. Mike song at Prima center. The quote was 7500 for tummy tuck with lipo on flanks and muscle repair. Pretty good deal and he’s board certified. My surgery date is April 26 and have only 1500 left to pay. More

Pros I am glad i picked him to do my surgery. Cons why I didn’t go see him sooner rather the... More
Dr Song seems more like a friend who genuinely cares about me than a doctor. Doctor's usually don't have empathy and good communication skills. Dr Song excels in these areas. More

Dr. Song is very knowledgeable about everything he does. His bedside manner is great! He gives you his honest opinion and he won't do stuff just to take your money.

Dr. Song is simply the best!!! There are not enough words to describe how amazing he is! I work for a surgeon so I look at every single detail at other facilities. The office was always spotless. They are always on time...I never had to wait (even when I was late) I was always in and out. Stacy, Adriana, Kate, Michelle and others were all the sweetest in the world. I had no issues whatsoever. Whenever I called or emailed I always got a response immediately. Dr. Song is quiet, but he goes out of his way to keep his patients happy. He wants patients to love their results, he TRULY cares about them. I will forever recommend everyone here. I will miss you all! And hope to work with you guys in the future again. More

After 22 Years......I’M FINALLY GETTING MY FLAT TUMMY BACK!!! - Attached are photo’s of the short sets I purchased from Walmart to wear following surgery for about $11 each (shorts were $6.88 and the tanks were a little over $4). I also attached a photo of drain holders that I want to purchase from Jessica M. Creation. I came across these holders while following Shelita Prioleau Youtube channel where she takes you on her tummy tuck journey. Her page is very informative and I learned quite a bit. Her surgery was less than 2 weeks ago so I continue to wish her a very speedy and pain free recovery. Any other information I may come across that can help the next I will share! More
Tummy Tuck Scar Revision - Dr. Song performed my tummy tuck on May 17, 2018 & at my 6 month check up in November There was an area of extra skin present that bothered me, I felt like it could be flatter. Dr Song said that he could do a local procedure to remove that area. Once I arrived on yesterday he marked the area & I pointed out 2 areas of my tummy tuck scar that were really thick he said let's fix that... More
Back in June of 2012 I accompanied a friend who was having a procedure done to Prima. During the consult and the surgery I was so impressed with the office and doctors that i joked around with having BA here if I ever had the courage to do it. Well, I was diagnosed with breast cancer in Feb 2013. It wasn't how I wanted to come to this office but when my surgeon handed me Dr Song's card, I laughed. God always has a plan. What are the odds?? He has been the most amazing doctor. Not many doctors have the bedside manner he does. A diamond in the rough! In April of this year, my son had a horrible motorcycle accident on home from military leave. Three open fractures of femur, tibia and fibula They were talking amputation of his left leg. Dr.Min (orthopedic dr) performed three surgeries and the leg was still trying to give up. He called me suggesting plastic surgery and a specific procedure that would possibly save his leg. I wanted Dr Song to do the surgery but knew his schedule was so busy that it probably wasn't an option so I didn't suggest it. Dr Min called me with a doctors name for me to research and guess who it was??? Dr Song! I cried mama tears for sure! Literally crying writing this review. With the help of these two doctors I can proudly say he has defied all odds put in front of him. He has been released to full duty and his leg is fully healed. I do not have enough words to express how Dr Song has touched our lives. He literally saved us both. We will be forever grateful! More
My daughter had a breast reduction and Dr. Stephenson and his staff was excellent. They made us feel very welcome. Dr. Stephenson is very knowledgeable and did an awesome procedure on my daughter. She is very happy and now can get back to her normal routine. I highly recommend Dr. Stephenson for your plastic surgery needs! More
Dr. Stephenson did my surgery last year on December 4 which was a breast reduction. When I saw the results I was so pleased he gave me my life back. Dr. Steffensen is knowledgeable, great bedside manner, and a great listener. He have a amazing team that will answer all your concerns and questions. If you looking for a great surgeon I would recommend him to my friends and family . More
After having two children and carrying around loose skin for over 2 decades I decided to do something for myself and went to see Dr Stephenson at Prima Center for a tummy tuck and muscle repair. From my consultation appointment all the way through to post op, the entire staff has been AMAZING! Dr Stephenson has far exceeded ALL of my expectations, not just with my procedure but with the extra care and attention that he provided to me as a patient. He addressed every one of my questions, responded to all of my concerns, and took time to help me set realistic expectations. l cannot thank Dr Stephenson and his staff enough for all of their care and expertise. I cannot say enough wonderful things about them. More
My go-to girl....Najda!!! She listens with curiosity and she speaks with honesty. I am that girl who will buy everything you tell me to buy if it is going to make my face look great! It is really refreshing to know that I am not being oversold! I am very happy with my skin care regimen recommended. I like how she remembers my face concerns and the products I am using, and finally I love how she will tell me if I am being unreasonable with my excessive suggestions. For example- suggesting a great peel package rather than allowing me to believe my aggressive obsession with my acne scars and me thinking I need something crazy and outrageous! LOL Thank you so much Najda! More
Consultation scheduled! - So after 6 months of hardcore research, I have chosen Dr. Song to perform my Tummy Tuck. Not only are his credentials super impressive...his reviews, before and afters and his recommendations are phenomenal. He’s the only surgeon I’ve scheduled a consult with because I’m certain he’s right for me. I also live in Duluth, really close to his office so that’s a plus. This site has helped me... More

I have been to a few plastic surgeons before but none of them can be compared to Dr. Zwiren and his staff. I have had my Restylane Lyft facial filler and Dysport performed with fantastic results. The doctor and staff are extremely knowledgable and have provided the best possible service. All of my friends comment on my appearance. My only problem is that I run out of Dr. Z's cards to give my friends. More
Five Star Plastic Surgeon - Perfection!!, that's what I say every time I look in the mirror after my surgery with Dr. Zwiren. After 2 pregnancies my breasts were a mess. I asked friends and searched for a plastic surgeon to help me feel confident again. I had a consultation with one surgeon who barely spent 5 minutes with me I left more confused than I started. Then I met Dr. Zwiren and his staff at Prima Center for Plastic Surgery. He was very thorough, listened to my desires, answered my questions and gave me options to consider. My results are just what I wanted. Cindy, Torie and Dr Zwiren are the best team around. Definitely five stars all the way. More

I Search for over 5 years, For a doctor that did not just want to cut cut cut on me but really listen to my concerns in the things related to my breast implants prior surgery that needed to be corrected. I found doctor Zwiren as a recommendation of another doctor that does not do business with him but literally admired his skill set. Doctors Zwiren was more than willing to answer ALL of my questions AND support his answers with dumented information. I give him and the staff 5 stars for sure More
Dr. Z and his team are absolutely AMAZING! From your very first appointment, you are greeted with so much respect and concern for your concerns. Dr. Z is knowledgeable and precise in his work. He is prompt with his appointment times and makes himself and his nurse staff available to you 24/7, if you need anything or have questions and/or concerns.

Dr. Z and his staff really do become like family! Oh... and your procedure results are STUNNING! More
I had my BA done 8 days ago and I must say, this experience was amazing. My surgeon was Dr. Song. From the consultation to post op appointment I've been very happy. Wanda was so nice in helping me with the financial part. Stacey was wonderful in helping scheduling my appointment. & Dr. Songs assistant Kate was awesome and answered all of my questions and gave me insight into her personal experience. Prima Centers prices are also very affordable. I met with 4 doctors and Prima Center quoted me 500$-1000$ less than any other clinic I went to. Not only was the price lower, but I felt the most comfortable with Dr. Song and his staff. So, put those two together and I found the perfect clinic for me. I recommend them to everyone! My biggest fear was not choosing the right size or how my breast would look, and i have to say, excuse my french, Dr. Song is a F**KING ARTIST!!!! :D More

During my initial visit for surgery consultation, I thought it was a waste of my time. Previous doctors, had told me it would be unlikely that the needed surgery would be approved by insurance. Dr. Stephenson submitted my claim to insurance and it was approved within weeks. Within weeks, I was being scheduled for surgery. The process went so fast, I was amazed. During pre-op consultation Dr. Stephenson answered all my questions. The day of surgery, I was a bit jittery Dr. Stephenson and hospital staff made me feel comfortable and took away my jitters. He did an awesome job on the surgery and I am feeling a lot better! During my post-op office visits he and Ursula always answer all my questions. I always have a good experience with all staff. I definitely made the right choice with Dr. Stephenson and team and I highly recommend! More

I went to Dr. Zwiren for a breast lift. After 3 children my breast were sagging and I felt somewhat unattractive. My entire experience has been fantastic from start to finish. I look so much better since my procedure! I feel perky and pretty!!! My appearance is 100% improved.

Almost 48 and ready to be flat again - I love Dr Song! I had researched having a tummy tuck for 2 years. I am not new to plastic surgery. Many years ago I had 2 breast augmentations then a year ago I explanted them! Never been happier! Dr Song did my TT, MR, lipo of the flanks and so far I am very happy! I was so scared and nervous to do this because of fear of complications from such a big surgery, but I was so tired of the apron.... More
Thank you to Dr. Zwiren and the Prima Team! - I just wanted you to know how thrilled I am with my new breasts! I had been wishing for years to have them filled out, but until I casually mentioned it to you in an injectable appointment, I had never even explored the option. That day, between your willingness to give me a consult on the spot, your excitement about the potential result, and the beautiful imaging, I felt confident and ready to make the leap. And, thank goodness I did. Just as you described, the implants softened my shape and game me curves where I had never had them. I feel like they are a little treasure, a work of art! I was so surprised by the immediate pretty result. I had prepared myself for bruising, but there was very little. The staff was happy and friendly and the day of surgery was incredibly fast and easy.I have enjoyed being your patient over the years, you seem to love your work and it has made me very happy. Thanks for helping me be the best I can be! More
Dr. Stephenson is AMAZING! He is so attentive, friendly and well informed in the art of plastic surgery. He was able to calm my fears during my consultation for a breast reduction/lift.

I cannot express in words how truly gifted and talented he is, I will recommend Dr. Stephenson to anyone considering plastic surgery. More

I’ve come to Prima for lip fillers, Botox, and a peel. Every single person in the office has been so friendly and accommodating!My first visit was for Juvederm and Botox, and they wrapped it in to a package which actually helped me save around $100. They also accept CareCredit, so great for finance options! I really love the nurses in the office, as well as Dr. Zwiren! He was nice enough to see me last minute to check on my fillers after getting them done when I was panicking about a lump. I’m definitely going to continue coming to Prima for my treatments. The office is clean, staff is friendly, and pricing is competitive. More

His skills, knowledge and patience is everything needed. I have had a few procedures over the years, some maintenance and other surgical procedures done by Dr Z and all results surpassed my expectations. Dr Z and his nurse Cindy were always available to me during the recovery process with patience and understanding. The facilities are very clean and the plus is it’s a full procedure facility. I have always felt well cared for after each procedure. More

I recently had a full abdominoplasty with lipo of the flanks by Dr. Stephenson. I would have to say Dr. Stephenson is excellent. His bedside manner is impeccable. I would recommend him over and over. I was so afraid to have this surgery done but no question went unanswered and he just makes you feel very calm and comfortable about the procedure. Even after I got home from surgery later that night he personally called to check on me. He is excellent. I am 10 days post-op and I am loving my results. I can't say thank you enough to Dr. Stephenson and the Prima Surgery Center staff they are all excellent, caring and very professional. More
Results Are Better Than I Ever Imagined - I had a Mommy Makeover with Dr. Song in April. I initially had consultations set up with three additional surgeons, with the Prima Center as my first appointment. I was so impressed with Dr. Song's expertise and bedside manner, that I canceled my other appointments as soon as I returned home. He listened carefully to what I hoped to achieve, showed me visuals of what the procedures entail,... More
Dr. Stephenson is a gem! It took several visits to other providers to find a physician that really took the time to listen which lead to proper testing, diagnosis and treatment. He is so personable, professional and great at what he does. He called me when referrals/recommendations were needed and consulted via phone with my other physicians to coordinate the best care for my case (which isn’t easy). During office visits I never felt rushed and all my questions were answered. More
Immediately upon arrival to the office, the staff was very receptive and warm. They identified me by name based on my appointment times, asked how I was and how my day was and then asked me to take a seat. Not one visit have I taken a seat in the waiting room and waited longer than 15 minutes. Very prompt with times and knowledgeable about all information related to the entire process. Very much understand what my time means to me. Love the office environment, the staff and for sure the doctor. Ursula is the bomb, love her!!! One of the best plastic surgeons, watched his work in the OR as a nurse and made the decision to let him do my procedure. I am very picky with who provide me care, he is the one who can all the time.

Excited to Get This Journey Started! Time to Do for Myself! - After searching and reviewing many doctors I have finally made the decision to have my surgery with Dr. Song. I went for my consultation on June 29, 2018 and made my deposit on July 10, 2018. Dr. Song and his staff were very nice and did not rush me through the consult. Dr. Song is definitely the right choice for me. I will keep updating once my surgery gets closer and try to upload some photos. More
Amazing Results! - I am 4 months post op tummy tuck, muscle repair and liposuction to arms, flanks and back. I chose Dr. Song mostly based on his reviews so I felt it is only right that I write one as well. I also loved the fact that the pictures of his work showed low, symmetric scars and natural looking belly buttons. I can say that his work exceeded my expectations and at 4 months post op it just keeps... More

However, this is what I looked like after bandages were removed... More

35 Years Old, Breast Cancer Survivor, Reconstruction Surgery by Dr. Song - Dr. Song goes into detail with the procedure that he performed on me. He told me what to expect, how to care for myself before and after, and made sure to answer any questions I may have had. He also insists on calling his office if I may have any questions going forward, or if I remember anything I wanted to ask but forgot. He is very gentle when talking with you, and his bedside manner puts you at ease immediately. More
36 Year Old, 168 Lbs, 3 Kids, 2 C-sections Muscle Repair, Tummy Tuck, Lipo, Hernia Repair, Breast Implants - Dr. Song is very professional and really care about his patients.

There are truly not enough positive words I can write regarding Dr. Jeff Zwiren (Dr. Z), his primary nurse, Cindy, and the caring and attentive staff at Prima Center for Plastic Surgery. I have a been a patient of Dr. Z's for over 15 years and I can honestly say that each and every experience I have had with him has been second to NONE! Not only is Dr. Z an exceptional surgeon, but he is a wonderful and genuine man. In fact, I have never met two people quite like Dr. Z and Cindy. They are two of the most compassionate and empathetic people I have ever known. Dr. Z has always listened intently to my concerns, and I have always been more than satisfied with the results. He is a meticulous surgeon whose conscientiousness is obvious in his work and attitude. If you are looking for a doctor who is at the top of his profession, is highly respectable, demonstrates tremendous knowledge, precision and cognizance as well as a sincere courtesy like no other, then Dr. Z is the physician for you!

Dr. Stephenson is amazing! 23yrs after having my son I finally decided to get a TT to get rid of my stretch marks & I chose Dr. Stephenson to do it. I'm so glad I did. He did not patronize me just to get my business. He was very realistic about the potential outcome of my surgery, so, on Dec 29, 2017 I checked into Gwinnett Medical hosp where they treated me like gold & Dr Stephenson snatched my waist & got rid of my stretch marks. Dr. Stephenson has a wonderful bedside manner & he answers any & all of your questions so write them down so you don't forget. Ursula (his nurse) is wonderful too. With their help I was back to work in 2 weeks. Choose Dr. Stephenson and you won't regret it More

I love Dr Nakano! He is so thorough in his consultation. All questions I had concerning my procedure were addressed before I even got the chance to ask them. He is laid back and extremely honest about the results you can expect. He told me about two different options I had for my surgery and very truthfully informed me that if I wanted option 1 then I would be better served by an oral surgeon because that procedure was routinely performed by them. I opted for the second option and Dr Nakano achieved a result better than I was expecting. After my surgery, he called to check on me at home (I think, I was on drugs so maybe I dreamed that). And even though the next day was a Saturday he had me come back to the center to do the post op check up. I had a really great experience and wish I had the money to have him do my boobs. Maybe in a couple of years! More

35 Year Old, 3 Kids (One Set of Twins) Tummy Tuck, Lipo and Fat Injection to the Buttocks - Duluth, GA - I have wanted to get this procedure for years, so I decided to just do it:) So far so good, I just had the surgery yesterday and it already looks amazing. The pain has been pretty uncomfortable but hopefully that will begin to subside soon. Can't wait to see what it looks like in a week or two. I have some swelling and drainage, the pain is mostly coming from the fat injection and stomach muscles I think. I turned my recliner into a makeshift hospital bed, it's works great with some pillow and sheets. More

i go here for botox, after a friend's recommendation. dr. zwiren and his staff are great! when i first started getting botox, everyone spent time putting my mind at ease as i was VERY nervous the first few times! very friendly and my results look amazing! the price is reasonable, however, price isn't the only factor. this is my face and i don't want it screwed up! i feel much more at ease in such a professional setting with a competent doctor. i've never been here for a breast augmentation but two of my friends have and their results look FABULOUS! one had a severely botched ba and dr. z made her look amazing! you'd never know she had the problems she had.

There are not enough words to say and There are not enough happy tears to shed, to express my love, sincerity, and gratefulness to Dr Song. This man is so humble, in his craft, but in reality, he is a hero to myself and those alike, who have suffered for years from body depression. I will recommend Dr. Song, and his entire surgical team, for years to come. A special thank you as well to Nurse Adriana, Nurse Katie, and (forgive me for forgetting her name), but the gorgeous da...rk haired, blue eyed receptionist that greets me by name at every visit. All of you have become a permanent staple in my life story and I couldn't be more proud. Dr Song: A million thank you's, would still never be enough. ? More
Excellence in all aspects. The Dr. is very personable and caring, explains how everything is going to be getting done. Everything is what I expected in a number1 facility, the staff is very courteous and professional, discusses the process and then, give you the time to ask about what's your concern. Adriana is a super asset to their team. I really appreciate all the care they give me when I'm there. Dr.. Song is a God's sent. L. A. Happy Patient. More
So Absolutely Happy! Dr. Nakano is Amazing - Atlanta, GA - Had a mommy makeover to fix the body changes from having my son. I talked to several doctors, But settled on Dr.Nakano for his expertise, directness and kind demeanor. He patiently walked me through my wants and concerns, and set very realistic expectations. The outcome was way better than I could have wished for or expected--I'm so happy! More
Couldn't Have Asked for a Better Bbl and Lipo Experience - Atlanta, GA - I've always wanted to have my body contoured to match my frame. For more than a year, I reviewed realself, blogs, doctors' bios etc. I went with Dr. Song of Prima Center of Duluth. His candor and professionalism are 2nd to none. He took my vision to another level. And the center's staff is a dream staff from the front desk to the OR. More
Great Doctor, Great Results! - Duluth, GA - After having my first reconstruction after a double mastectomy, I was less than impressed with my prior surgeons ability, expertise (or lack thereof) and the outcome. Knowing that I deserved a better result after having undergone everything I had due to breast cancer, I sought out a surgeon whose level of training, interest and expertise was superior, and that's when I contacted Dr. Song. I've had such a great experience with him, and immediately felt confident that he knew what he was doing, and would provide me with the best result possible. He gave me plenty of information about the procedure he would do during the revision and why, and what I could expect for results. He also answered every question I had, and didn't seem to rush through my appointments. He didn't weave a fairytale like story about what my chest would look like after the surgery, but told me the realistic truth, which helped because that way I didn't have an image in my head that wasn't going to be feasible. I have been more than happy with my new chest, and although it's not perfect, after a mastectomy, because of the volume and tissue loss, combined with physical imperfections, one can't expect to have the same outcome as one who simply underwent an augmentation. I look great in a bra, pretty good without one, except i'm missing a nipple on the right, but I'm symmetrical, full and glad to have that whole cancer nonsense behind me. More
36, 143 Lbs, 5'6", C Cup. Dr. Mike Song is a Miracle Worker & The Best in Atlanta - Duluth, GA - I am beyond thrilled & humbled by the level of care Dr. Mike Song has given me. I am one week post operative and feeling great. Dr. Song personally has answered ALL of my questions, changed ALL of my dressings and removed ALL of my stitches. Dr. Song is unbelievable, his bedside manor as well as academic pedigree makes him and Prima Center the obvious choice for anyone looking to make a change. His support staff, Wanda & Adriana have been gracious and attentive. I traveled out of state because Dr. Song was the clear choice for me... Full trust. And I couldn't be happier with my experience. More
49 Y.o. Mom, Children in 20's and Starting to Do More Kickboxing - Duluth, GA - Dr. Zwiren was fantastic! I met with him and he was the only doctor I have ever visited that knew immediately why I had a long scar in the center above my belly button from when I was little. He was great about going through the process and how it would be different because of the scar. He suggested lipo for some locations which I definitely took his recommendations. I am so happy with the results and I am so glad I got all the extra skin removed and abs tightened. It feels great to fit in my clothes and excercise without the belly jiggle/overlap. More
From Tuberous Breast to Beautiful Breasts - Duluth, GA - Dr. Z articulated in my consultation that my breast were tuberous breasts and explained to me in depth how these breasts are abnormal. He was particular on his wording and I noticed he did not call them a deformity/deformed. When I went home after my consultation and did my own research, these type of breasts were pulling up as a deformity. I appreciated that he was careful with his wording to me as a patient. The procedure I knew would be challenging due to the shape of my breasts but Dr. Z and his team did a fantastic job. I'm 2 months out of my procedure and I love my results! I would recommend Dr. Z to anyone. And I would recommend a breast augmentation to anyone who has doubts on the shape and look of their breasts. It is an investment in yourself and that is the best investment you can make. More
BR and BL, 38 No Kids - Atlanta, GA - This was easily, the most nerve racking decision of my life. Up to the day before my procedure, I was asking myself: "are you really going to do this to your body". I almost contacted the doctor's office and cancelled the procedure. I believe we all go through this struggle, as it is a huge life decision. On the one hand, I knew I really needed the procedure. My breasts have always been big and droopy, with limitations on what I could wear. I have never had perky breasts, and I could only see my nipples if I was looking in the mirror (and they were always pointing downwards). You can still see the dark rashes underneath my breast today (which were at times itchy and smelly), as well as the bra strap marks on my shoulders. I'd had enough. On the other hand, there were the risks. Infections, necrosis, horrible outcomes (sorry AngelEyes 281) and of course, the scars. We are literally willingly subjecting ourselves to "mutilation". If it wasn't for the brave ladies of Real Self, and the confidence I had in Dr Song, I probably would not have gone through with this procedure. It is because of you ladies and Dr Song, that I decided to pay it forward, and to post this review. (Sorry it took me so long, was waiting until I was on vacation). I did my procedure on July 13, 2016. Five weeks hence, I have absolutely no regrets. I love my boobs. A huge joker's smile comes across my face whenever I look at them in the mirror. I am ashamed to admit, that I stare at them in the bathroom mirror. I would leave the bathroom, then go back in to stare at them again. I will periodically post pics of how things are progressing If you have any questions, please let me know. More
Mommy Makeover- Tummy Tuck and Breast Lift - Atlanta, GA - Today was my consultation with Dr. Song. I don't know where to start. Beautiful facility, friendly staff and Dr. Song was very informative. He explained my options what procedures could be done and the amount of time it would take. I may be doing 2 surgeries, but will talk about the second one when the time comes. My surgery will consist of a tummy tuck with lipo around abdominal area and flanks as well as a breast reduction/lift. My current breast size is a 32DD. They will be reduced to a full C, I haven't had a C cup since 6th grade!! Yes I developed very fast. Dr. Song showed me photos of results I could expect for my body type. I found this very helpful! He also told me that he would keep in touch with me and contact the person taking care of me the evening of my surgery to check on me.Dr. Song informed me that with every client that undergoes breast sx he sends a sample of the breast tissue to a lab to test for breast cancer.Price.... I was pleased with the price and EVERYTHING it included. Compared to my last consultation I will be saving about 2,000. And I was told 100% of what I pay is refundable. And the price also includes insurance, which covers specific complications within 30 days of surgery up to the maximum benefit. The down payment is 750 for sx more than 2 hours, my surgery should take 6 hours.Im very excited and pleased with my decision! More
The Most Amazing Dr. and Staff Anyone Could Ever Ask for - Atlanta, GA - Dr. Mike Song and his assistant Adriana have transformed my life in ways that I can't explain. From my initial consultation for a breast augmentation, to the surgery, and my post op visits these two have been incredible. This was a life changing decision for me and i will be forever be indebted to them! More
Lip Lift Done Twice and So Far Love IT! - Duluth, GA - I can not express how happy I am with this procedure! I HATE lip injections and saw this procedure on REAL SELF. I had never even heard of it--my doctor is THE BEST! I would let No ONE touch my face---but him, He has done procedures for me for over 25 years---I am 57 and he keeps me looking great! if I get brave I may post my body---BUT he is VERY conservative and he was not certain he wanted to do the procedure at first. I begged. The first lift was done a month before and even though I had no pain, no scar--I wanted more. I pleaded again and he performed the surgery again this Tuesday. I am very happy! I would have liked to have a tad more...but I am happy. He had me take 1 valium and 1 Ativan prior 45 min and there was no pain. I had a little discomfort and I mean a tiny bit a few hours at home, but I took 1 pain pill and that was it. I would like to load photos, but they are not uploading I will keep trying. I LOVE this surgery, my great doctor, Phillip Nakano and his wonderful staff in Duluth, GA at Prima Plastic Surgery! More
Absolutely fantastic! - I have to say Dr. Song is such a great doctor and person overall. He's very knowledgeable in his work and very flexible. From beginning to end he's consistent and reliable.

Absolutely fantastic! - I have to say Dr. Song is such a great doctor and person overall. He's very knowledgeable in his work and very flexible. From beginning to end he's consistent and reliable. Coming into the consultation he provided me with all the information I needed without me needing to ask. He's very honest and open to your wants/needs. I'm 29 and have one child and was worried about whether my breast augmentation would sag and if it was a good time to even have surgery done at this time of my life, but I was definitely needing some change to them cause I wasn't getting any younger and didn't think I could wait til I had the rest of my children. But he reassured me that everything would be fine and that of course there's risks, but he made me confident in knowing what I was getting into. I was able to schedule an appointment in 1 week and surgery went well. Friendly staff, love them all (Wanda, Adrianna, Dr. Song, anesthetist, nurse). Based on your results, Dr. Song recommends how fast/slow you can get back to everything. I went in to surgery on Friday and went back to work on Monday following. Checkups are great and he answers all your emails, texts, calls although he's a very busy doctor. His nurse, Adrianna, is so friendly and loving, she's like your best friend there. She's very knowledgable as well and can answer your questions. At 6 weeks my breasts have already dropped significantly and at 2 months I was released to go back to doing all normal activities! He's definitely a down to earth guy and understands the ins and outs of breast augmentation. For best results, I would bring a picture with you to get the results you want (as with any dr). It helped me to get my results to my liking and I'm very very pleased with my breasts. I'm very glad I did this and would recommend this to ANYONE interested in breast augmentation. Great place, very clean, lovely staff, flexible, and reliable. Can't beat it. More
Dr. Song is amazing! - I recently had an abdomioplasty at Prima Plastic Surgery in Duluth, GA. While I was extremely nervous about the procedure, Dr Song made me feel at ease. He was super informative, upfront and very knowledgeable. I settled on him due to his Ivy League educational background and the positive vibe during the initial consultation. His bedside manner and responsiveness exceeded any expectations I... More
Dear Dr Song, We wanted to take a moment to express our appreciation for your superior medical care and service for our son. You offered prompt attention , offered your personal cell with advice not even having seen him and a prompt visit for evaluation. We were very grateful for the reassurance you offered and also for the letter you sent for the army recruiter. Thank you! More
My experience with Dr. Stephenson was phenomenal. He was kind, well mannered and explained everything throurouly about my procedure. After, my procedure I had three preopp follow ups with Dr. Stephenson. Now I'm up to my 10 day follow up which will be soon. Within this time period I've seen great results and I'm feeling better day by day. I'm very satisfied with the outcome of the surgery.... More
Dr. Stephenson and his staff were wonderful throughout my surgery process. He and his staff were very polite and attentive and willing to answer any questions I had. I highly recommend them for anyone looking to have reconstructive surgery. At my first consultation appointment, Dr. Stephenson did a really great job at setting expectations for the surgery and results I could receive. We discussed and agreed on the goals and limitations and he made sure I was well aware of the possible outcomes and surgery process. The pre-op appointment covered the details of surgery day, how the surgery would be done and recovery details. On the day of surgery, I went to Gwinnett Medical Center on Pleasant Hill Road. The staff at that center was also wonderful and far exceeded my expectations of a surgical center. My surgery was completed in a few hours and I was home midday. Both the surgical center and Dr. Stephenson called me that night to make sure I was doing okay, which demonstrated a huge level of service. After the surgery, I had a follow up appointment 4 days after and then once a week after that for the next month, followed by a 6 week and 12 week check in. At each of these visits, Dr. Stephenson and his staff made sure to answer any questions I had about my recovery and also set my expectations on the recovery process looking ahead until the next time they saw me. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and would encourage anyone looking to have a procedure to meet with them for a consult to explore your options. More
Hello, I visit Dr. Earl Stephenson office in August and had my surgery in December 2015. The staff was very professional and concern about my situation. My insurance didn't want to approve my breast surgery due to my back problems. Dr.Stephenson explain to my insurance company the problems I was having and they approve my surgery. I was very pleased with the outcome of the surgery. I got relief from my back pain and my breast looks amazing. Wonderful Dr. and great staff will highly recommend for future surgery. More
I received very professional and pleasant service from Dr. Stephenson and his nurse when having a facial mole removal. They were very accommodating when scheduling for surgery and follow up appointments. I especially appreciate the ease of talking to Dr. Stephenson regarding any questions or concerns. More
Dr. Stephenson and his staff are EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!! I have never felt more relaxed and at ease with a surgical procedure. The end result was amazing and beautiful. I have sent and will continue to send patients to this practice. To me this is the ONLY physician you should consider when planning your plastic surgery. More
I am beyond satisfied with my results. I had to have my third hernia repair along with getting a tummy tuck. Dr. Stephenson made the coordination with the general surgery so easy. I am no longer experiencing pain, discomfort and bloating since surgery plus I have abs now!!! I had a very good recovery without any complications. Post-op visits were a great experience as well (in and out). This physician is easy to get in contact with and responds back quickly. Money well spent! I'd do it all over. More
49 Y.o. Mom, Children in 20's and Starting to Do More Kickboxing - Duluth, GA - He is a very thorough and caring doctor. I checked out other PS and they all seemed more interested in smiles and no problems. Dr. Zwiren was professional, detailed, and easy to talk with. If you want a great PS, you should set up an appointment. The staff and nurses are excellent as well. You know he is good when his own nurse uses him for a tummy tuck! More
Backfat Be Gone - I chose Dr. Song due to his numerous positive views, his wealth of knowledge, willingness to answer questions, and open honesty during my consult regarding what I could expect. This journey has been a long one as I originally planned to go elsewhere. Let me take you through my process. First things, I worked out 6 days a week for the last year and have now increased to 7 with 3 days a week doing TWO a days! My issue is not necessarily lack of exercise nor diet as I tend to keep that under control. My backfat appears to partly be genetic. I originally looked at going to DR because a few of my friends went. I decided saving a few extra bucks wasn't worth dying and not being home where I can control my post-op care. I looked at Duran and a few others and the botched surgeries I saw on Facebook were too much for me. I was then looking at Fisher in Miami. I hated the way the girls in the front desk/ on the phones behaved to some degree. They were sweet in terms of getting back but they wouldn't answer any questions I had and just kept saying "okay you can book" *in a thick heavy Spanish accent* after I had my online consult. That didn't sit well and I didn't like the pressure of, he's booking early. So that led me to Dr. Song after reading a lot of his good reviews. He was patient (ha) today in answering all of my questions, we talked about some of everything from potential complications to preventing back fat in the future... He gave me a realistic expectation and discussed the fact that I may not see everything I want but will see a vast improvement. He's optimistic given my health & commitment. I was so confident in his abilities that I put down my deposit today and scheduled everything. I'm weighing in at 216 and hoping to get to 199 in the next couple weeks. I will keep you all updated. More
Dr Song, I want to say thank you very much for everything that you have done for me. I am very thankful that you are my doctor. You are an amazing doctor as well as an amazing person. Your attitude and friendliness is very much appreciated. Just can't say thank you enough! Thanks for being you! More
Anyone considering going here, should go. Dr Song is a very personable and compassion ate Dr. I had breast cancer and Dr Song was referred to me. My husband and I came in and met with Dr. Song our first appt. After we left, I had already decided I wasn't getting a second opinion. I couldn't have asked or been referred to a better Dr. Today was my last appt until 6 months from now. I am going to miss seeing them so much. Happy New Year!!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart Dr Song , your the BEST!!! More

My experience has been the greatest from beginning to end. I was looking for a surgeon and had visited a different office that was not as welcoming and not as passionate as Dr. Song. If you are looking for someone knowledgeable and willing to tell you the best route to take that would be best for you, Dr. Song comes highly recommended by me. He wants you to have the best end result and I love that. The office staff is amazing as well. I can't speak enough of Adrian either (Dr. Song' s assistant). This is an amazing place to go if you are considering surgery. More
The team of Dr Song met my every need. Dr Song honored my request to pray before my case. Adrian the RN met my request to listen to Bethel music on her cell phone through Pandora. They each were so gentle and talked to me through the procedure, I was so relaxed I fell asleep under local. Dr Song very responsive to post op phone call with the people taking care of me. I am a RN and I have taken care of Dr Songs patients they do beautifully. More
Dr Song is a very passionate and great guy. Patient advocate. Called my insurance plan. Got me approved. Did an excellent job. Highly highly recommend this caring and very friendly business. That feels like the really care for their patients. Thanks. Mike Song. More
29 y/o from barely an A cup to 34D and loving it!! - I went in to see Dr Stephenson about getting a breast augmentation. I was barely fitting into an A cup all of my life until I had my first child and experienced a bigger and fuller chest. I loved how it looked and felt until I went flat again after I stopped breastfeeding. Dr. Stephenson was able to accomplish that exact same look and size that I had once before based off a few photos that I had and I feel like it is even better!! His patient care and customer service is very comforting and at anytime I had a concern, I was able to get in touch with him. I would definitely recommend Signature Plastic Surgery to anyone wanting to make a change for the better in their life. More
36, 143 Lbs, 5'6", C Cup. Dr. Mike Song is a Miracle Worker & The Best in Atlanta - Duluth, GA - Dr. Song is the most attentive doctor I have EVER had in my lifetime. I flew in from out of state specifically after researching him and Prima Center. I could not be happier with his candor, his academic pedigree, his staff and facilities. Prima Center should be ANYONE on the East Coast's choice as my results are outstanding and the care is top top notch. More

45 Yr Old Male That Hated Taking off His Shirt - Snellville, GA - After 45 years of overeating, indulging in alcohol on a regular basis, and working out, my belly had taken a beating from being stretched beyond reformation. I thought only women got stretch marks, needless to say that not true, no matter how much weight I loss my lower abdominal area would never snap back, the skin was going to be loose no matter what I did. I was embarrassed to take off my... More
Thank you so much Dr Mike Song Thank you for being my doctor and taking care of me during my stay at the hospital and also your wonderful and loving staff. More
I'm very pleased with my results. Dr. Zerwin is great! I did other consultations in the area and no one made me feel as comfortable with my Abdominoplasty and Brachioplasty procedures. The prices are reasonable and the staff is great. They are with you from the beginning to the end. I recommend anyone considering a surgical change, to definitely go and meet Dr. Zerwin and is staff. More
Lip Lift Done Twice and So Far Love IT! - Duluth, GA - Dr. Nakano in my opinion is the BEST. He is conservative but very skilled and I would say an artist. He is kind--yet honest and direct. I would not let ANYONE touch my face, but him. My lips look gorgeous! AND he has the best staff you could ever hope to find! Caring---Compassionate and wonderful! He has done several procedures on me and I love him! More
So Absolutely Happy! Dr. Nakano is Amazing - Atlanta, GA - Dr.Nakano was wonderful! (his staff was great too!). A mommy makeover is a serious surgery with a serious recovery, and I'm sure the only reason I'm this happy is because I was in the hands of a experienced, meticulous doctor. He's calm and knowledgeable, and genuinely interested in every concern of his patients (no matter how small---I think I asked him every tiny question i could think of). He's highly regarded in all his reviews, awards,etc---but I could tell beyond all of that, holds himself to the very highest standards. When I told him I'd read how happy his other patients are, he said "I'm only as good as my last patient" ; ) I knew right then I'd made the right choice...and after the surgery, I couldn't be happier. More
BR and BL, 38 No Kids - Atlanta, GA - Dr Mike Song is a true gentleman. Extremely patient, with a calming spirit and demeanor. This was important to me, given the stressful decision to proceed with this procedure. I knew nothing about plastic surgery or surgeons before I decided to do this procedure. I had never met or spoken to anyone who had undergone plastic surgery (I am from a small island). I read the reviews on over a 100 plastic surgeons on Real self, including the "top doctors" in Atlanta. One particular review stood out for me. The patient was what I would consider "fussy". She had consulted about 5 plastic surgeons and Dr Song was the 3rd doctor or so, she had seen. After she consulted with about 2 other doctors, she went back to Dr Song. I liked that. But I especially liked, how Dr Song's patients desrcibed him: skillful, with an eye for the "aesthetics" (beautiful breasts) and painstakingly detailed. I never forgot the use by one patient of that word: "aesthetics". A word I would have never thought of associating with breasts. I therefore decided to go in to see Dr Song based on these reviews. When I met him, I knew he was the right one. He was so calm, not garrulous, but very detailed in his explanations. Although I had about 2 pages of questions, there was no need to ask him all the questions, I had prepared. I just felt settled. I do not need to go on and on about Dr Song's skill, competence or aesthetics, and you do not have to take my word(s) for it, just look at my pictures! Each time, I look at my breasts in the mirror, a huge joker's smile, comes across my face. Words cannot express my gratitude Dr Song. You gave me exactly what I asked for, and helped to increase my self confidence. Shout out to Wanda (patient coordinator) who was always sooooo patient with me, and responded to all my emails promptly. And thanks Adriana (nurse assistant) for really helping me with the healing process. When I came in to remove my stitches, you were so engaging, that it took my mind off the process. Thank you Dr Song and your team. More
Mommy Makeover- Tummy Tuck and Breast Lift - Atlanta, GA - Very professional and knowledgeable. Spent a good amount of time with me during consultation, wasn't rushed. He was realistic and wasn't trying to sell me a dream. During and after my procedure I could not have asked for a better doctor! He really made me feel comfortable and really cared for me and my wellbeing. I truly feel blessed to have found him! He is the perfect package as far as a surgeon!! More
I have been putting off writing this review because I just don't feel I can do Prima Center, Dr. Song, and his staff any justice! After an OK-experience with another surgeon five years ago, I had pretty high expectations and everyone at Prima went above and beyond. Dr. Song is incredibly knowledgeable and has helped me feel confident in my body after losing about 70 pounds. His attention to detail and thoroughness during the post-op care has allowed me to heal very quickly with almost no issues! But what sets Prima apart from other plastic surgery centers is the rest of the staff is just as amazing! Wanda, the surgery coordinator, was amazing during the pre-surgery time (answered all my email questions promptly) and goes out of her way to say hi every time I see her in the office and tell me how great I look :) Adriana, Dr. Song's nurse, is absolutely fantastic and knows her stuff. I have never trusted a nurse as much as I trust her...and it feels like I've known her forever! I second what another review said below: Friday is my last post-op and I don't want them to stop! I enjoy going in and seeing everyone! In short, you absolutely cannot go wrong with the amazing team at Prima. I will be going to them for any cosmetic procedure I need until they kick me out! More

I am very satisfied with my breast reduction and tummy tuck done by Dr. Stephenson. He truly has a blessing and it shows in his work. He has helped my reach my 40 year goals, boosted my confidence and has inspired me to take better care of myself. (Protecting my investment) My husband and I are loving my new body. The changes in me are more than physical and have been noticed by family and friends. I am constantly giving thanks and recommending Dr. Stephenson for his great work. More

51 and Looking 40! - Snellville, GA - Going to Dr. Stephenson was one of the best decisions I've ever made. He's professional, but very knowledgeable, and friendly. One of the few who will actually take time to talk to you. I've had Botox and fillers (Juvaderm). I love the results! He will be honest and respectful.

Dr. Song has been my doctor for more than 2 years and I won't go to anybody else. My first surgery was a full tummy tuck and liposuction on the sides, then I came back, about 3 months ago, for a neck liposuction and fat transfer to the face and Botox on the forehead. Dr. Song always take the time to listen and answer my questions and also make realistic suggestions about any procedure that I might be interested in. I never had any problems after surgery, all equipment is 100% sanitize and everyone make sure that you receive the best attention before and after surgery.

19 Years Old, 5' 6", 125 Pounds, A --> C Cup - Atlanta, GA - He took a lot of time helping me make the best decision for me by honestly discussing every option and its result. He was willing to answer questions with as many free pre- or post- surgery appts as I wanted, as well as very quick email response or phone calls through his primary nurse. After a year, I asked him about the remaining vague scars under my breast, and he offered to do a scar revision procedure for which I would only have to pay the cost of supplies. More

In addition, I had to call him a couple of times after the surgery and he took a lot of his personal time to answer my questions. He has great bedside manners and made me feel at ease. Personally, I have never felt better! This surgery was the best decision I could have made. I lost a lot of breast tissue from breastfeeding my kids and my abdominal muscles had separated during my second pregnancy. No matter how much exercise I did, I could never get the look I wanted. I feel so fortunate that Dr. Song was able to help me get my pre-pregnancy figure back. Now I can finally look the way I feel! Finally, Dr. Song's staff is so helpful, professional, and friendly. I highly recommend Dr. Song and his staff. More
Dr. Stephenson is awesome. I had ripped my earlobes at a young age and for 30 years I have been just wearing stud earrings. I finally had the surgery yesterday to repair my lobes and I am so glad. He and his staff made me feel so comfortable and I can't wait to see the final results! More

I recently had a tummy tuck and lipo with Dr.Song and he is awesome!! As well as the staff! I was so scared and they made me feel very comfortable and helped me get through it! I did my research before going to anyone and this is defiantly the place to go! It only took me 2 weeks to recover.. I also got my arms done a year after the tummy tuck. I got it done on Friday and was back to work Monday. Also done by Dr.Song. He is kinda shy and straight forwarded when you come in for the consult.. But that's just his personality until you get to know him. He's actually a really funny outgoing guy. I would defiantly refer my all my friends and family to come see Dr.Song. I was so happy with my results he has no idea how much this one thing changed my life. He gave me confidence! I was going to post by before and after photo, but can't seem to figure out how to post a pic. On here :/ More
What a great first experience! From the receptionist to the doctor's assistant, to final checkout, all were kind, and patient. Dr. Song was all, and more, from the recommendations from some of his patients. He listened, cared, and was almost painless. I'll definitely be returning. More

I just felt very comfortable, and confident that he was the doctor for me. More
Dr Stephenson immediately made me feel relaxed and comfortable, (especially since I was getting half nude in front of a man other than my husband I was Extremely Uneasy about this). He has a great personality and even a sense of humor... GOOD BEDSIDE MANNER Means EVERYTHING To me, especially after what I went through with my EX (Mastectomy) surgeon. I am most grateful for that and the wealth of knowledge about his craft, his ability to answer my questions and make "Suggestions" that we can AGREE to on MY Treatment. That's a Definite Plus in my book... I don't like being "TOLD what's Going to be Done to Me"... It's My BODY... MY CHOICE! He answers alot of questions here, he's one of the Top 10 and he's on the Health Grade "Honor Roll". I've done quite a bit of research and I'm eager to see the Outcome of God & Dr Stephenson's "WERK"! lol More
How fantastic. I was thinking about Dr.Zwiren just the other day. He is a amazing doctor. When I first met him I asked him if he was old enough to do the type of surgery you needed. Of course he was and he proved it, I thank God everynight in my prayers for his talent. More
I just wanted to send a simple thanks to Dr Zwiren, Cindy, and the staff at Prima Center for making my experience so enjoyable!

Dear Dr Nakano, I received last months Atlanta Magazine from my sister and was certainly pleased, but not surprised, to see your name on the "Top Doctors" list. You are extremely skilled, but it is your care and compassion that set you apart. Congratulations! Your patient - More
Dr Stephenson is a exceptional physician. His care and concern for his patients as well as his exceptional ability makes his an ideal physician. When you find a physician who has numerous health care professionals who work with him and see first hand how he works, and choose him for their doctor you can rest assured he/she's a good doctor. I'm a physician and he's my doctor. More

Dr. Nakano (Breast Reduction Surgery) - Duluth, GA - I went in yesterday for a breast reduction . I am 35 and my second pregnancy just did a number on my boob's. Until about two days ago, I was wearing a 38H which if fitted properly probably should have been a 38I. Dr Nalani is amazing and his bed side manner is like no other. I was in pre-op waiting on him to come in and was just sobbing to my husband. Between the nerves and not getting to hold my 6 month old baby for weeks coming up just got the better of me. When Dr Nakano came in, just the tone of his voice and calming nature was enough to relax me and put my full faith and trust in him and was ready to go. I am only one day post op and haven't really seen the final result yet, but I can tell you that I am surprised there is not more pain and that I feel as good as I do. All of the nurses also reassured me of how great his work is. I can't wait to buy some smaller tops and wear only one sports bra to the gym instead of three! I also can't wait to feel the relief on my neck and back. It's amazing what four lbs off your chest can feel and look like! My guess is that I am now somewhere between a C-D. And I am totally OK with that! Thank you Dr N. I would highly recommend him! More
I have had several surgeries with Dr. Nakano. He is professional, courteous, more so than any other doctor I have ever seen. He takes time to listen to your concerns, and gives you his honest opinion. I appreciate honesty because there are a lot of doctors out there who just want your money, whether they can make a difference or not. Reading the review below from the person who really trashed Dr. Nakano, I would say the problem is with her, not Dr. Nakano. Maybe he didn't tell her what she wanted to hear, just the truth!! That is what he does!! I have known him for years, and that is the most ridiculous thing I have ever read. He gets raves from everyone else, except this bad apple. Guess there is one in every bunch! LOL! I I absolutely LOVE the way I look. If you want the most caring and best surgeon around, you should see Dr. Nakano. His staff is top rate too! More

Thanks for allowing me to feel comfortable with my body after 28 years. Love your work and bedside manner. More
Butt lift/Lipo/Fat transfer - My motivation for this is last summer2014 my butt was ok not falling due to I guess older age. This year going down on vacation to PCB I had my bikini and looked in the mirror and said OMG my butt has falling to my thighs. So I had to go out to a bathing suit store and get one of those bikini skirt bottoms, pretty though, I was ok with it but couldn't get over the fact my butt has dropped! Plus I have this stubborn fat on my back and love handles that won't go away so why not do it all at once. Get a nice smooth back w/ no rolls and use my own fat to give volume to my buttocks! Also I'm one that has never had a nice bubble butt, but I never complained about it just my big boobs and the inner tube around my tummy from having three boys! Also wanted to say this doctor has done all my surgeries and I feel comfortable with him cuz I have a few medical problems and he knows all my other doctors and he and his staff will keep me safe! Now it's just the wait and get something's in order! More
28 Years Old - I Have a New Favorite Song - Duluth, GA - There are not enough positive words to describe my feelings about choosing Dr. Song as my surgeon. I have had an amazing experience. I am 3 weeks out and almost feel like I never had a procedure at all. - - Dr. Song is a total pro. He is precise, very professional, gentle, kind, and easy on the eyes. He texts back after hours within seconds. His assistant Alanka, is such a sweetheart and they both made me feel comfortable in such an awkward situation. My breasts are near perfect now and the contour lipo looks amazing. I also had another procedure done but I have very nosy in-laws who know my surgery date and doctors name so..... I'll just say- I read tons of reviews, stalked real self for 2 years, consulted with 5 doctors, and even 2 consultations with Dr. Song. There was NO question after meeting him that he was the one. The only negative thing about the procedure - was having to self inject blood thinning meds. Also- sleeping in a recliner is a must ;) If I ever need any type of procedure in the future I would without a doubt use Dr. Song. More
Cant Wait to Wear Bikinis for the 1st Time in my Life!!! - Duluth, GA - Dr. Nakano is the best PS ever!! I feel like hitting the jackpot with him. He did my breast augmentation last year and loving my babies. Got a lot of compliments on how natural they look. The incissions were so tiny too. He was the only PS I consulted and I decided and paid on that very day. A year later, ready for much needed tummy tuck. I had it done 5 days ago. Tummy is flat already! A little swelling and 2 days only pain. Very easy recovery. Beautiful work by Dr. Nakano! Reasonable price...not too cheap but not expensive at all. Very very pleased!! More
Dr. Stephenson and his office/ staff were very professional and helpful from the moment that I stepped into the office. I explained to the nurse during my consult what procedures I was looking into and immediately after mentioning the breast reduction she took pictures and planned that she would send the pictures to the insurance company's to find out if my insurance would cover my procedure. Immediately she asked questions about my back,neck and shoulder s along with noticing my "tan lines". So I thought were tan lines she informed me that those lines were from my brassiere digging into my shoulders. Dr. Stephenson arrived in the room and stated that he could in fact do a really good job and that I was definately a candidate for a reduction. All I had to do was wait thirty days to see if my insurance would approve the reduction. More
I had a consultation with Dr. Zweirn. Very nice doctor. Spent a lot of time going over the mini facelift and rhinoplasty procedures with me, complete with power points and before and after photos of his patients. Very thorough answering all of my questions. Felt very comfortable with him. I didn't end up choosing this doctor (I interviewed 5) for my procedure but I would go see him again if I had any issues and I'd definitely recommend him to friends and family. More
"Thank you so much for the expert care I have received from you. From the courteous and caring staff to Dr. Earl Stephenson, Jr., MD, DDS amazing skill, I truly appreciate what you have done for me. You have changed my life so much and I wanted to thank you for the difference you make in transforming people's lives." More
Breast Lift and Augmentation - After searching and searching for a plastic surgeon to do my breast lift and augmentation, I happened across reviews for Dr. Stephenson. While other surgeons had mixed reviews, his were all positive, so I scheduled a consultation. I'm so glad I found Dr. Stephenson! He was so professional, knowledgeable, patient and caring. I never felt rushed or pressured into the procedure. Six months post-sugery, I am super pleased with the results! Dr. Stephenson actually surpassed my expectations. He's both an excellent surgeon and wonderful human being! More
Breast Implants and Ilpo - Duluth, GA - Dr. Song is well mannered and attentive. He answered all of my question. I am only a few days post op and just a bit concerned about my breasts. They are two very different sizes. He had me come back to the office. He said give it time. Which I have no choice but to do. I know he is knowledgeable in this field and everything will work out. Right now I'm stuck at home with mitch matched breasts. No fun More
Highly recommend. Very friendly cordial office, and spotless. I had never before had any kind of treatment done so was apprehensive about what I was getting into. Kristina is very helpful explaining the skin treatments. I feel safe doing what she recommends and felt equally comfortable with Dr. Song (Botox), and Juvaderm. Tired of looking crabby. Kristina did a series of collagen treatments, I tend to be skeptical, but the results from both were pretty amazing. More
I have been going to Dr. Zwerin for over 6 years now. I have had a breast reduction & injectables. Dr. Z is on top of all the new procedures and will take the time to explain why he does or does not recommend what you are asking for. I am totally comfortable at all times that my best interests are at heart when I go to see him. Cindy is an absolute joy !! Very thoughtful and informative. Thank you Prima Center for making my choice an easy one when it comes to my care!! More
Dr Stephenson was amazing! From the initial consultation to the day of surgery he was very informative with great bedside manners. His staff was prompt with getting my insurance claim submitted so that I had zero out of pocket expenses. Despite the discomfort of it being day one I am extremely happy with my itty bitty titties More
Forty and Flat! Hip-Hip-Hooray! - Dr. Song was personal and informative. I love him and his staff. I would refer my mother to him. Lol! His office is clean and organized.

If you want great service and magic hands, Dr. Song is your man!! More

This is a really great practice with a lovely staff. They do not try to sell additional treatments or products to patients. I have had Exilis and Vanquish treatments and have been very pleased with the service. Kristina Grove is an awesome Aesthetician...one reason I make the 35 mile trip to the practice :). More
My lips are a nightmare. Besides the fact I don't see an increase in size, they're hard, uneven, and hurt. Multiple people have asked me how I busted my lip...No I just got bad lip injections. When I went for a followup, the doctor tried to charge me an additional $225 to "fix" them. He tried to tell me that this is normal, how the product is supposed to look.

I have found this site so helpful during all of my planning and I decided i wanted to share my mommy makeover journey and hopefully help someone that's curious just like I was. I'm having this procedure done with Dr. Mike Song of prima center in Duluth Ga on March 25th which is only 5 days away and just as I typed that out I felt my blood pressure raise, I'm super nervous about being put under but I know or at least I hope it'll all be worth it! I decided on Dr. Song after already seeing him for Botox and juvederm, so I'm already very familiar with him and his staff and I love them all, I am having a full tummy tuck with a belly button float instead of a traditional because apparently I have a high BB and the only other way to do it would be to make a small vertical incision across the hip to hip incision and that scared me a little bit plus I don't have to worry about having stitches around my BB so yay! I'm also having an anchor breast lift with somewhere around the 445 cc silicone implants, he's ordered a couple of different sizes to "try on" in the operating room, my biggest fear is not going big enough and regretting it later, He said I have a good amount of breast tissue already so I should have a nice outcome, let's hope so for mine and my poor husbands sake hehe. Speaking of my DH bless his heart he freaks out anytime I try to tell him what they're going to do to me, lucky for him he gets to take care of me for a few days then my mother is coming to stay with me for about a week, I have 2 kids 8 and 12, both of them weighing 10lbs when they were born ???? I had one natural and one c section so of course I have that cute smiley face from that on my stomach with all 7,000 stretch marks I acquired, at least I had 2 beautiful healthy babies out of it all ??

I love Dr Song and Alanka! I had difficult breast reconstruction after a mastectomy. Since my diagnosis I've been to many doctors. I hate when they have you wait for hours to see the doctor who then pops in for 2 minutes like they're doing a drive by. Many doctor's act like they're time is so much more valuable than yours. Not at Prima. They were very professional and thoughtful and the staff was very sweet. They're also organized and call you back promptly if needed. I hope I never have to, (you know because of the cancer and all) but if I had to I would definitely go back. Great experience. More
Snellville, GA - Dr. Stephenson is "Heaven Sent." His bedside manner is excellent, and his staff is wonderful! I explained the turmoil of having four C-Sections, resulting in hanging scar tissue destroying my self confidence for 20 years. I have not shared these issues with my own family; I felt very comfortable with him the moment he walked into the room. I've had several consults with other physicians;... More
38H NO REGRETS JUST RESULTS 26 No Kids. Atlanta, GA - So far I have had a great experience with him. During my consultation my mother and I asked about a million questions. We laughed, we cried and the doctor was very professional and supportive through it all. I feel like my boobs are in good hands and can't wait for my surgery.He is AMAZING I love my boobs. I love my incisions. I am pleased with the entire process and his recommendations are excellent. Following all of my doctor's orders. More
5'6 140lbs After 6 kids, it's time to Repair the Damage - Duluth, GA - I'm finally ready for my mommy makeover. My youngest child is 4 months old and I was planning lipo around this time last year, but I had to postpone due to our little surprise. I met with the ps yesterday, and I put my deposit down today for March 11th. Only 4 short weeks away! I decided to have a breast revision of my 10.5 yr old smooth, round, saline 350cc implants (done after 3rd child), lipo of the abdomen, sides, back, flanks, hips, inner and outer thighs, and a "lower only" tummy tuck revision (original was done after 4th child, 4.5 years ago). The benefits of the prior surgeries were compromised with the subsequent pregnancies. This time I'm going with the Mentor memory shape textured silicone implants. I'd like to go bigger, possibly with a 475/500 range implant so that I can achieve the volume and fullness that I feel would best fill out my large frame. Ps said I could/should definitely go larger than my current 350cc, but I won't be sized for the new implant until my pre-op on March 4th. I've been searching on real self for my wish boobs and I have found some great pics. I'm really excited to have my surgery done by Dr. Zwiren after having read many great reviews of him and his work on real self. I plan to add plenty of pics along my journey, and I would love to make some friends that have/are going through their makeovers as well. More
Exceeded expectations in every way! - I went to Dr. Zwerin for a breast augmentation because of two close family/friends that raved about him. From the consult to the surgery, he has been so professional, informative and practical about what to expect and what my results would be. He definitely under promised and over delivered. I went in the consultation not having much of a preference for saline or silicone, but he recommended for me the shaped gel and told me why. (both friends got saline) I trusted his recommendation 100% and he was spot on. It gave me the shape and size I was looking for. They look so natural, yet enhanced. I received a call from Dr. Zwerin the night of my surgery to check in, and from Cindy the head nurse the following day. I felt so taken care of at Prima. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to get plastic surgery. I did not expect to absolutely LOVE my results, as I do. Thank you to the whole Prima team! More

Dr. Stephenson is an excellent surgeon. His bedside manor is superb. Again, he is patient, informative, easy to talk to. He made this entire experience wonderful. Other than 3 C-sections, this breast reduction is my first major surgery. He made me very comfortable with this process from the very beginning. More
Dr. Song is AMAZING!!! He was able to repair my leg with plastic surgery after a freak accident. He is very patient and kind physician and his assistant Alenka is Fantastic. All of the staff was very helpful and pleasant. I highly recommend this practice. More
I am so glad that God lead me to Dr. Mike Song, Aleka and Prima. My experience was fabulous and my recovery has been phenomenal. I am one week post op and in jeans of course with my compression garment and drain, but I am realistic. I know some days will be easier than others but I'm off the antibiotics, have a few more shots left and take kids pain reliever when needed. If you are unhappy with your appearance he is the doctor to tell you the truth about what you need. More
Thanks Dr Song for Rediscovering my Hidden Tummy..... - Duluth, GA - Dr Mike Song is by far one of the most honest, patient and compassionate doctor I've met. He was very attentive to my needs and he went as far as to deter my decision of having a tummy tuck because he didn't think I needed it. He suggested Liposuction instead. I appreciated his candid opinion and professionalism and booked my liposuction surgery a few months later. His bedside manners are impeccable and I loved that he personally called me at home the same day of surgery to ensure I was doing well. I also loved his medical team who exhibited a high level of professionalism and compassion during my prep for surgery. I am very pleased thus far about my results and experience and would recommend Dr Song as your surgeon. He is extremely patient and will answer any questions you may have. More
40 Won't Catch Me with a Hangover! - Duluth, GA - My consult went very well. I consulted with other doctors closer to my home but I found Dr. Song to be very pleasant and knowledgeable. I am looking forward to the procedure. He is the MAN, and cares a bunch. He didn't want me to have to drive 2 hours to have my last drain removed so he showed my hubby. Aleka his nurse I just love love she was like I don't need to be back for another procedure. Let's just say they are not money hungry! Dr. Song will only do what you need and given his honest very well educated opinion, I'm so in love. I went for my consult and was book and done in less than a month. Don't sleep on Prima Plastic Surgery in Duluth, GA! More
25 Year Old, Lost a Lot of Weight - Duluth, GA - I'm very impressed with how Dr. Zirwen, changed my life. It motivates me to keep losing. I feel a lot better about myself. I never thought I would look as amazing as I do. He really have changed my life for the better. During the surgery, the doctor took off more than I expected. The down time was 6 weeks and it was worth every bit. More
42 - Breast Reduction, Tummy Tuck & Liposuction Oh My! - Atlanta, GA - After several consultations I picked Dr. Song. Sought insurance coverage for my breast reduction but it was specifically excluded under my policy. Bit the bullet and did private pay together with a tummy tuck. He spent so much time with me during the first consultation, after I got dressed we sat at a table in the exam room with a big monitor on which he showed me power point presentations about both surgeries and before and after pics that were similar to my body shape. I love to learn and had already done a lot of research so I asked a lot of detailed questions about why he does or doesn't do things a certain way. He seemed appreciative and started drawing me illustrations to explain things. He acted like he didn't have another place to be all day and I felt so comfortable with him. His prices are extremely competitive. I would highly recommend that you check him out. He is young (my age although he looks younger) but his training is impeccable (Harvard, Emory, Stanford) and he is double board certified in general and plastic surgery. Not at all condescending, very down to earth and very approachable. He has been fantastic throughout. So responsive during the first very tough post op week. He never left me hanging when I needed him. Totally thrilled with my results. Actually kind of sad that my next appointment isn't for a month since things are going well (currently 19 days post op). More
I recently had a tummy tuck that was performed by Dr. Zwiren. I am two weeks 4 days out and already back to work! I absolutely love my results! The team at Prima Center was amazing!

My nurse Cindy?I am at a loss of words for how awesome she and Dr. Zwiren were! I recommend anyone needing a cosmetic procedure to go to the Prima Center! More

So Happy I Made the Decision - Duluth, GA - I always knew I wanted a breast augmentation but I had to work up the nerve to have a consultation. I am so glad I did! I went to prima center and everyone was so nice it made me feel as ease. I had the consult with Dr. Zwiren he was GREAT. He really took the time to explain the whole procedure to me and helped me understand everything. I was most concerned about which size implants to choose before going into the consult. The 3D imaging machine help so much! It showed me what I would look like with implants and I was able to compare several different sizes on the computer. There is nothing like seeing yourself with implants BEFORE you have surgery. With the help of Dr. Zwiren’s expertise and Vectra (3D imaging) I made a choice that looks amazing. Once I made the decision to have surgery I was very excited. The day of surgery came quick. Surgery went very smooth and recovery was easier then I anticipated. I had surgery on a Wednesday and by Friday I was having dinner with friends. Dr. Zwiren and his nurse Cindy are the best. They took very good care of me. He even called that evening after surgery to check on me. I am very happy with the decision I made to have surgery. If a breast augmentation is something you have been considering make an appointment with Dr. Zwiren he will answer all your questions. I would not trust anyone else but Dr. Zwiren to operate on my body. More
40 Years Old and Two C Sections Later - Duluth, GA - Dr Song is the most sincere, caring and professional PS I've came across. His bedside manners is impeccable. The staff is wonderful. He have answer his cellphone every time I called. He even calls you the night after the surgery and a few days after to insecure all is going well. I strongly recommend him. More
Mommy Makeover-BL, BA, TT with Muscle Repair - Duluth, GA - I can't say it enough but Dr. Song is the most caring, amazing, detail oriented person let alone doctor I've ever met. I am 2 days PO now but feel like I've know him for years. He gives his patients his cell phone number and actually answers it! No matter what time is is. I've called him twice since surgery and he is very patient and listens to my concerns. Always asks me how I'm doing. Most of my pain is coming from my back from being hunched over. Other than that my breasts and abdomen feel OK. He has a very gentle touch. Surgery took longer than expected b/c Dr. Song is a perfectionist and it shows. Although I'm swollen and no where near final results, my breasts look beautiful. After having a weird shape to them my whole life this means the world to me. Everyone at Prima is outstanding. Jenika, Alinka, Wanda, everyone is fantastic. They never hesitate to answer the gazillion questions I have and they never act rushed or bothered. Jennifer my PO nurse was so kind and Dr. Frazier the anesthesiologist was amazing (I'm pretty sure that's his name but he gave me some good drugs so I apologize if I got it wrong lol).I just can't way anything but good things about Dr. Song and his staff. I would do it again in a heartbeat and will ALWAYS recommend Dr. Song to anyone and everyone! Thank you so much Dr. Song. You and your team are family now :)!! More

Dr Zwiren, I would like to thank you so much for changing my life! I had rhinoplasty/septoplasty and breast augmentation on Jan 12 and am extremely pleased already with the results. I LOVE my new face (and chest)! You are very professional and thorough. I was very prepared and you were kind and explained everything that would need to be covered from beginning to end. I will recommend your services to anyone who is considering cosmetic surgery. Thanks again, so much! Also: Thank you to the staff and nurses at Prima, you all were very patient and kind to me and willing to help me and answer any questions I had. God bless you all! More
Tummy Tuck - I'm having smart lipo with a tummy tuck done - Lilburn, GA - Dr. Stephenson was very personable and answered all of my questions and didn't make me feel rushed at all. I even made it back to the waiting room after my consultation and remembered I had another question and the coordinator got him again for me. He's a very kind person and my procedure will be done in a hospital setting, which I am thrilled about...not in someone's back office... I'm so ready for this for this procedure...I opted out of the SMART LIPO as I know that I wouldn't get the same results and I'm looking for with the tummy tuck from my C-SECTION. Dr. Stephenson assured me that I wouldn't have to hunt him down for my post-op visits. I have read about some doctors not following up with their patients. Things go well, I'll most definitely be using this Doctor again for my nose job. I loved his honesty in regard to a BBL...MOST DOCTORS WOULD TAKE YOUR MONEY, KNOWING YOUR RESULTS WOULD BE LESS THEN IMPRESSIVE... Let me end by saying " Dr. Stephenson is a cutie, too"... More

Absolutely Happy with Everything (BA) - Duluth, GA - My thoughts about Jeffrey Zwiren are absolutely amazing! He was organized, and made sure all my questions were answered. He took the time to answer everything, and he utilized all tools necessary to show me what I was searching for when doing a BA. He had pictures, used tools, explained pro's and con's of certain things, and had a video. Although, he had to go out of town for my post-op he had Dr Song check my well being. Dr. Song took his time, checked to make sure all my questions are answered. He checked on activities I have the okay to do. From the receptionist to the nurses and Dr. Zwiren, I am truly happy with the procedure and with the staff here at Prima Center. I am willing to send pictures and answer any questions you may have about the place and doctors. Love it!!! Will return!! More

love this man! - Duluth, GA - Dr. Song is the man! Did I say I love this man? He is very straight to the point and honest. If he doesn't feel it's the right thing to do he will let you know. I was a smoker prior to my surgery and he made sure that I was very well informed about the horrible possibilities of smoking and this surgery. I quit about 60 days prior to my surgery. On my 1 week pre-op visit he "fussed" at me and said " I will not do this if you are smoking!" I liked that very much! I would much rather he fuss at me that have someone do it just to do it.Dr. Song has been very informative and you can tell that he is very concerned about the job that he does. He takes the time to walk you through everything and make sure you understand. I researched many Dr's for this procedure and when I found him I just knew!The office staff is great as well. Very friendly and happy to assist you with anything you may need. They were able to get my insurance to approve me in less that two weeks. More

Beyond Professional !! - There are no words to describe how much confidence I have in this doctor. After weeks of intense research I chose to see Dr. Song (along with 2 others) for a "mommy makeover" consult. His office is warm and inviting, his staff is kind and caring and he spent more time with me than I ever imagined and he LISTENED to my concerns. I urge anyone having surgery to do your research. After doing my own I can tell you there are very few plastic surgeons in this area I would trust. After seeing this doctor I cannot recommend him HIGHLY ENOUGH! More

After much research and consults with 2 other plastic surgeons I chose Dr. Song for my "mommy makeover." His office and staff is professional, yet friendly and caring. He is honest and to the point, while being warm and personable. HE as well as his staff listened. He was willing to do things I wanted where possible, and explained in kind detail when it wasn't possible. I made a sizeable down payment to reserve a surgery date. Even before my pre-op he made sure to gather all documents and tests to make sure that every possible precaution was taken so that I was safe during and after such a lengthy surgery. He found an unexpected risk-factor and cancelled my surgery pending a hematology consult. Before the hour was out I received an email offering to refund my down payment. Unheard of! Needless to say, I left it in place as I fully expect the "go-ahead" from the hematologist. I suggest anyone contemplating surgery to research Dr. Song. His reputation is beyond reproach! More

I am diabetic, and throughout the surgery and recovery, I received more than standard care and service. He demonstrated prefessionalism and great care for his patients. The end result is amazing!!!

Breast Implants - Duluth, GA - Dr. Zwiren is very patient, honest and knowledgable. He answered all my questions and concerns. I went with three different doctors before i saw him and they all push me to put silicon implants. Only dr. Zwiren listens to what I want which is saline and gave me a good advice. The 3d machine also help me a lot to decide what size of the implants to put in. More

Referral was spot on. Recently my girlfriend was referred to visit Prima, and Dr. Song for some elective procedures. From the consult to the recommendations, we both felt that he understood what our expectations were with the surgeries. Dr. Song gave us a clear picture of what she could expect, and how the recovery process would work. Since the procedures, she has been elated with the outcome, and is full of confidence. I’m really happy we decided on Prima, and more importantly, Dr. Song. More
Was recently referred to prima plastic surgery to have a non-cosmetic, medically necessary procedure. I was supposed to see Dr. Nakano, but because of scheduling conflicts I was placed in Dr. Song's care. All of the girls, from the front desk to the assistants in the back, were very nice. They really seemed eager to help me with any questions or concerns I had. Can't say the exact same about Dr. Song. When he finished my procedure, he said "see ya" and just sorta walked out of the room. Didn't even turn around and look at me, which was slightly off putting. I do feel confident in the care I received, however, and trust Dr.Song to be a competent doctor. I will return to prima center (if necessary) because of the convenient location and friendly staff.

Extended Tummy Tuck and the BEST Doctor, Ever! - Suwanee, GA - I did 4 consultations and I knew after meeting Dr. Nakano that he would be my doctor. He spent 2 hours with me during my consultation and I never felt rushed, answering all my many questions and examining me thoroughly medically. He was very honest and comforting and conservative in his approach. For example, he would not combine surgeries for me because he said it was too risky and said "I wouldn't do this to my family, I won't do it for my patients." My TT alone was over 5 hours so he was right, adding a BA/BL with it would have been way too much. The night of my surgery, I was not able to use the bathroom (urinate) and was on the way to the ER to get a catheter in when he called me to check on me. He told my husband do not take me to the ER - to meet him at his office. At 10:30 at night this man opened up his surgical office to me in the cold, pouring down rain and treated me. Many surgeons would only use their nurses for a procedure like this but this doctor treated me and rechecked all my incisions, changed my bandages and everything that first night. What a compassionate doctor! All of his follow up visits are included in his surgical price and so far he has seen me 4 times post op (I'm a month out). I had an extended TT and he was able to remove 7 inches off my HIPS instantly, no more saddle bags! I would highly recommend this doctor especially if you have lost a lot of weight, this is a specialty for him. I cannot wait for him to do my BA/BL next. I love my new body by Dr. Nakano! I would also like to add that his scheduling assistant Wanda was remarkable and very professional and compassionate from the first day I called. ALL of the nurses are just amazing and made me feel comfortable and well taken care of. You will not regret using Dr. Nakano for your PS needs. More
The office is nice and the staff is professional. Dr. Song has a good beside manner, my son had two previous surgeries that the doctors at emory were not able to get his incision to heal, I brought him to see Dr. Song who had to perform a third surgery and my son is healing nicely. We are very pleased with him and his assistance Elanka and the entire staff. More
Awesome, talented physician - Dr. Nakano perform a skin removal and "tummy tuck" for me after weight loss. He did a great job! He was thoughtful, careful, kind, and vert accomadating. He even met me at the office on a Sunday afternoon when I needed him. I highly recommend him to anyone wanting cosmetic surgery. More

I'm Sexy and I Know It! - Duluth, GA - Because he was straight forward and tell you as it is, did not try to promise the SUN, but just the MOON. Because of that my expectations was more realistic, and now one day post-op, filing great, and better than I expected. More
1 year 3 months PO!!!! WOW Times Flies........ New Pics!!!!! - Atlanta, GA - I selected my PS after reading a review on realself. I was impressed with what I read so I made an appointment. This was the best decision ever. Dr. Nakano is very experienced in what he does and his approach is great. He makes you feel very comfortable and never rushed. He does not tell you things that you want to hear but want is right for your case. He returns his own post op calls. His staff is absolutely wonderful always smiling always eager to help. I don't think I have ever waited longer then 15 MINS in his office. The office is equip with updated technology throughout the waiting area along with a spa center. Hands down Dr. Nakano is one of the best PS by far. More
To Dr Nakano and everyone on staff, Thank you all for making my surgery so easy and helping me feel better about myself. Since several of my friends have come to your office, I truly feel we all can say exactly what this cards says - "We're hot" ! Thanks More
Prima Center for Plastic Surgery is THE PLACE to go for anything!! The staff is friendly and professional. Dr. Zwiren does excellent work! He truly cares about the well-being of the patient. He takes his time to explain procedures and surgeries. He is a skilled surgeon. He's been in practice for over 30 years and it shows! He is such a nice person and makes you feel comfortable (who wouldn't feel comfortable with someone with over 30 years of experience though??!) Results are amazing and he is there for every step of the process including consults, recovery, and any questions you may have. He even answers his phone calls in the late hours of the night! Dr. Z and the entire prima staff are awesome and you won't go wrong if you decide to go to prima center! Love it! More
All the staff is wonderful! Courteous and knowledgeable. I love Dr. Zwiren, I would recommend all my family and friends to him! Dr. Zwiren took the time to explain all my options with me, his staff is soooo patient. I am ecstatic with my results and will go back again for any future cosmetic procedures. He is always available after the surgery if you have any questions or concerns and he called me the night after the procedure to check on me. More

Another doctor referred me to Dr. Zwiren for a breast augmentation. Am I ever glad he did! The staff (for my consult and pre-op, so far) has been professional, courteous and friendly. At both appointments Dr. Zwiren himself has taken the time to listen to my desires, go over the procedure in depth and answer all of my questions. Very knowledgeable about how to get the results I want with my body type. I will update this more after my procedure next week...but expect nothing but greatness from this practice. More
I've had extensive surgeries with Dr. Nakano in the past two months (breast lift & augmentation reinforced with strattice, liposuction, full tummy tuck with muscle repair) and both Dr. Nakano and his staff have been incredibly thorough, meticulous, cautious and compassionate. It was only after extensive research and interviews that I selected Dr. Nakano, specifically due to his demonstrative expertise in new and emerging surgical techniques and the beautiful work he's done on highly complex cases. I've had some slight complications due to my skin composition and activity level and they have been completely on top of ensuring that I heal and scar well, despite my complaints about the timeline and methodologies. I can always objectively appreciate someone who ignores superficial complaints in sight of the greater good; in my case, a longer healing time for a smoother wound. I would send anyone to see him - really an outstanding example of what it means to be a doctor and a surgeon. And an addendum - Lisa, his practice nurse, is also wonderful. She is sharp and highly competent with loads of experience. I probably called her a dozen times in the first two weeks and she was just as warm and helpful the first time as the 15th. More
