Testimonials

I received nothing but excellent service. Dr Macdonald is very personable, honest, listens to what you want, makes suggestions, but is not pushy. It was an enjoyable experience and I would recommend Dr. Macdonald to anyone interested in a freshen-up. 🙂

Dr. McDonald is one of the best plastic surgeons in the bay area. He recently did an eye surgery for me and it looks beautiful.
His staff members are very professional and are always ready to help in any way they can! I will continue to use their services snd products as the years go by!

I was referred to Dr. MacDonald by my friend and am very glad I found him. I had a lip lift done overseas in 2013 which resulted in big scar on my upper lip. I went to see a surgeon in Beverly Hills in 2015 which removed big scar but had upper lip that did not line up. I pretty much gave up any hope of getting this fixed until I met Dr. MacDonald. After meeting him and saw so many testimonies from his patients in a big binder in his office, I decided to proceed with surgery. It has been 3 weeks since surgery and my upper lip is looking better and better every day. I have faith in him and trust him completely. I am really looking forward to getting my upper lip looking more natural as it heals more in the next few months.

I was NOT a patient of Dr Macdonald. However, I had a procedure done while living in the bay area almost a decade ago. Trying to find out if his office was the one that did my procedure (so I could get copies of my medical records) I called and spoke with his office. He called me back HIMSELF to explain it wasn’t him or his office, asked about what I had done and spent his valuable time on the phone with me trying to piece together the clues to identify who it was that did my procedure and where. If he took that amount of care and consideration for someone who wasn’t his patient, I can only imagine what he does for those he cares for directly. Would absolutely recommend him and his practice.

Why We

Snore

We snore because of the vibration caused in narrowed or constricted airways during sleep. This vibration is what causes the snoring sound that is so annoying to your bed partner and so disruptive to good sleep for both of you.

Most commonly, the snoring originates as constriction or obstruction and vibration in the oral airway—mouth or throat. Other times, the snoring originates as blockage in the nasal airway. Sometimes, both nasal and oral airway obstructions together contribute to snoring.
