About Our Cosmetic Surgery Practice

La Jolla plastic surgeon Scott Barttelbort, M.D. feels most satisfied when he hears his patients say, “I’m glad I did this!” Ultimately, plastic surgery is about helping patients become content with the way they look by revealing or refining their natural beauty.

Your cosmetic surgery experience with Dr. Barttelbort will begin with a consultation. If you desire facial rejuvenation procedures, Dr. Barttelbort may ask you to bring a photograph of yourself from 10 or 15 years ago and inquire about what you would specifically like to change about your appearance.

Based on the information you provide, combined with Dr. Barttelbort’s extensive experience in performing cosmetic surgery, he will suggest procedures that will help you feel better about your appearance. Dr. Barttelbort will fully explain your surgical options, along with the results you can expect, to help you make the most informed decision and develop realistic expectations.

Dr. Barttelbort’s top priorities are your safety and comfort throughout your experience. As a top La Jolla-area plastic surgeon, he uses only the most advanced surgical methods and state-of-the-art equipment to provide safe, effective enhancements. The results he is able to achieve are consistently beautiful, balanced, and natural. Dr. Barttelbort understands that patients want to avoid unnatural-looking results that are overly-tight, uneven or simply aesthetically displeasing; he prides himself on providing his patients with subtle, elegant enhancements that improve their appearance rather than change it.

Dr. Scott Barttelbort works closely with a trusted team of medical professionals, including highly trained anesthesiologists, nurses and assistants, to ensure the safety and quality of care. When patients come to Dr. Barttelbort for cosmetic surgery, he and his staff make each patient feel as comfortable and at ease as possible throughout each stage of their treatment. If your procedure requires an in-patient stay, Dr. Barttelbort will provide you with on-site follow-up treatment for as long as necessary.
