For years I had been considering doing Gynecomastia surgery to reduce my chest size and make it look natural. I was definately scared, but taking the first step of calling Dr. Delgado's office was the best decision I ever made. Dr. Delgado and all his staff made me feel very comfortable and best of all educated me about my condition and the surgical process. I learned that the pro's outweighed the con's by a lot and decided after my first consultation to move forward. They educated me very well that I knew what to expect before, during, and after surgery. Dr. Delgado performed surgery and it was a lot easier than I had invisioned in my mind. The recovery process has actually been a breeze for me. Its now been two months and I did not experience any single complication. I attribute that to Dr. Delgado and his staff because they told me exactly what needed to be done and gave me all the steps to follow, which were easy. I am extremely happy with my results and actually started going to the gym already for light workouts. I give the highest recommendation possible to Dr. Delgado and his staff as they really took care of me and have made a very positive change in my life. I no longer wear dark shirts with pockets to hide/cover my chest!! =)

If you are looking 50 in the mirror, then you need to go see Dr. Delgado to discover how to turn the clock back a few years!

After a 13 hour facelift by Dr. Delgado that included an endoscopic brow lift, rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, lower neck, lip enhancement using my own fat and the evening up of my ears my friends and family tell me I look like I'm in my early forties at age 52. I chose Dr. Delgado because his numerous before/after pictures of his facelift procedures illustrated not just his stunning work but his depth of skill as a cosmetic surgeon. After spending time listening to the goals I wanted to achieve with my face, Dr. Delgado was able to explain exactly how he would go about achieving them. When I asked him if I needed a chin implant, he smiled and replied, "No. An implant is not necessary. You have a very nice chin and will be very happy once the extra skin in your neck is excised." Dr. Delgado is conservative in his approach and works to achieve a very natural, youthful look with his outcomes. I remember the first thing he said to me the morning after my surgery was, "Good. This is very good. Nothing looks pulled. I am very pleased." It was also very appealing to not have to go into a hospital for my surgery. Seeing the Marin Cosmetic Surgery Center which is connected to Dr. Delgado's offices in Novato and located adjacent to the Novato Community Hospital convinced me that I had not only found my surgeon but also the location for my procedure. My husband loved the fact that I could remain over night after my operation with attending nurses. In fact he even asked if I could stay the week! The one aspect of my procedure that I did not anticipate and has made me a patient "for life" is the extraordinary care I received before and after my surgery in addition to my beautiful outcome. I had painful swelling following surgery and Dr. Delgado managed it beautifully using medication and pain blocks.. At one point he had me remain in one of his examining rooms and sleep for a few hours until he was sure my swelling was under control. Almost two years after my facelift It is difficult if not impossible to find any trace of the incisions from my facelift. Except for the tiny white line under my chin which is only noticeable if I point it out, all other incisions are hidden in my hairline, the incisions around my eyes have "disappeared" into the natural folds and there is no trace of any work ever being done on my nose, mouth or ears. Recently my 19-yr-old son found a picture of me when I was much younger. He brought it to me and quietly stated, "Mom, you are prettier now than when you were younger." The mastery of Dr. Delgado's work has me looking forward to the next time he turns back the clock for me.....I'm already booked for 2022!

My silicone implants were more than 30 years old, and while they looked OK they were very firm and I was very embarrassed to hug anyone, they felt like grapefruit on my chest. So I decided to see about a revision. The first surgeon I saw in San Francisco said they were fine and to just leave them alone. He didn't want to deal with them! Then I went to see Dr. Delgado who was very concerned and told me he thought they both were ruptured but were being held in place by the scar capsule that had formed around them. Surgery was scheduled and he was right, I have no idea how many years I had been going around with ruptured implants. Many surgeons don't want to deal with ruptured implants because it is a very difficult procedure to remove all the silicone which is a gooey mess. His scrub tech told me later that they all had to change gowns 4 times because of the mess. I am so relieved to know all the silicone is out. The same scrub tech told me that the procedure took 4 hours because he took his time and made sure it was completely cleaned out before giving me new implants. Other surgeons who may have taken on this procedure would probably have not spent as much time to get out all the silicone, maybe just most of it. I am so happy that I found Dr. Delgado who is a perfectionist at what he does no matter how long it takes. I think it is really important that besides liking the surgeon you pick and liking the results you also look for one who is safety conscious. The whole experience was great, a wonderful staff and wonderful surgeon.
