I recently made the decision to have a facelift and upper eyelid lift at Legacy Plastic Surgery. The results are wonderful and I am grateful for the care I received.

The office staff is warm and welcoming. Their cordial manner puts one’s apprehensions at ease. Dr. Kim’s professional expertise makes one feel confident about what will take place. He is thorough in explaining what will occur with the procedure and what to expect after surgery. In addition, his kindness, follow-up care, and interest in your healing process is exemplary. Dr. Kim’s skill is reflected each time I now look in a mirror!

I have enjoyed a very pleasant experience with Legacy Plastic Surgery. It is with gratitude that I can highly recommend Dr. Kim … a wonderful doctor and gentleman!

Dear Dr. Kim & Staff,

Just a note to thank you for everything you’ve done for me. It has been a wonderful experience. I think I now need a young man to go with my new young face. Thanks again.

Doctor Kim,

You always go above and beyond what is required. No wonder you’re appreciated, well-liked, and admired!

Dr. Kim is the best plastic surgeon ever! He is so skilled and talented, he does the best job out of anyone I have ever been to. I had my lips done and Botox and they both looked amazing! Everyone says how good they look. He is very quick but gentle at the same time, doesn’t cause any pain and there is no bruising either. I highly recommend Dr. Kim! He is very nice too and asks if you are ok during the procedure.

This spring I went to see Dr. Kim hoping to find a way to fight the signs of aging I was seeing in my disappearing jawline and sagging neck. I found that Dr. Kim exudes such confidence and kindness that it gives you no hesitation in following your inner need to stay younger looking for as long as you possibly can. At the time I made the decision to see Dr. Kim, I had no idea how incredible the results would be. And then, a short time after my surgery, I stopped for a cocktail with my daughter one day after work. The waitress asked to see our identification. She spent a moment looking at the birthdate on my license and back at me before exclaiming, “OMG…no way!” I was sitting there thinking to myself, “OMG, Dr. Kim just got a 50-year-old woman carded!
Absolutely marvelous! Better than great! 6 stars! Dr. Wingate is a miracle worker!

I went for a consultation with Dr. Kim on a recommendation from a friend. I didn’t like the way my face was aging. I think I’m in good physical condition, have a job that puts me in the public eye everyday, but I needed some real work done! I was totally impressed with my visit and evaluation with Dr. Kim. He was friendly, answered all my questions and told me exactly what I could expect from the facelift surgery . I am thrilled with the way I look . I am one year post facelift and my friends always comment on how good my face looks and how natural I look. On my recent visit to Dr. Kim he gave me my before and after photos. I look at least 10 years younger . I highly recommend Dr. Kim to all my family and friends and to anyone who is looking to have a facelift. Dr. Kim is truly the artist!
I had a chin and mini facelift done by Dr. Kim. I had a VERY positive outcome and was impressed with his office staff and the ease of getting in and out. You can tell he is passionate about what he does. I have referred him to several friends already.
Dr. Paul Kim performed my procedure on August 2, 2017. As soon as I walked into the facility, I was greeted by a friendly and caring staff that made me feel extremely comfortable. I’m happy to report that during my procedure, I felt no pain. Dr. Kim made me feel at ease during the entire procedure. A week later, my results are wonderful and I’m very pleased with Dr. Kim’s work. I highly recommend him.
Excellent and talented physician with a great bedside manner. He truly cares about his patients and their well-being. I highly recommend Dr. Paul Kim.
Dr. Wingate is an excellent surgeon. He is very skilled and also very personable, an unusual combination in a surgeon.

Dr. Kim did a wonderful job in explaining an issue due to a mammogram.
The “mini face lift” – a work of intricate skill – has made a new person of me. In less than 2 weeks I resumed all work, activities, and intentions. Thank you for making the process an amazing experience, Dr. Wingate!
– Jane
Thank you for taking such good care of me. I’m thrilled with the results! It is a pleasure to be part of your patient population.
Very confident! Listens very carefully and is honest. I had several surgeries with Dr. Kim and was beyond pleased with my results. He continues to stay informed about cosmetic procedures that are available without having to go under general anesthesia! After several years of visiting his practice, I continue to consult with him about cosmetic and necessary medical procedures to remove cancerous lesions.
Placing your face in someone’s hands can be very scary but I had no reservations whatsoever with Dr. Kim. Seven years ago he performed a breast augmentation on me and the outcome was exceptional. My face and eyelift are phenomenal – I wish I had it done years ago. Dr. Kim is not only an incredibly skilled surgeon but also an artist when it comes to making changes to your face and eyes. I look the same as I did 25 years ago but better. He is so compassionate, totally understanding and truly kind, as is his staff.
It is always a pleasure dealing with everyone at the office. Thank you. All of you make life easier for your patients.

Dr. Kim did a wonderful breast reduction for me and was very patient and understanding because I had chickened out twice before. That he is highly skilled is a given. That he is so compassionate is a bonus. He is absolutely non-judgmental, just very affirming and positive. I recommend him highly. His staff is also kind and caring.

It’s been a year since my surgery and I thought it was a good time to write you and thank you. That surgery changed my life. I’ve since lost 30 lbs, exercise almost every day, and I’ve never been healthier. It truly is a whole new world for me and I want to thank you for this great gift.
I have a sweating disorder that causes extreme perspiration all over the body, as a hairdresser it was a major point of embarrassment for me. I have gone my whole life with this problem, always wearing big sweatshirts to hide the sweat rings. I was never able to wear any light-colored shirts because they would stain after just one time wearing them. When I started doing hair I realized it was going to be almost impossible for me to hide my condition from my clients. I was constantly lifting my arms and when shampooing I was bent over them always with one arm reaching over their face. I have had many clients say something about it and that was the point I needed to do something about it. Dr. Kim did a newer procedure on me, this is far less invasive as the original sweat gland removal surgery. I was able to receive this under local anesthesia and was back at work three days later. Dr. Kim has completely changed my life with this procedure. I am no longer self-conscious about my sweating and can wear any kind of clothing I want. My sweating has decreased by about 85%. I only use a light antiperspirant now and if I forget it in the morning it is not the end of the world. I could not be any more pleased with the results of my surgery from Dr. Paul S. Kim. I also felt very comfortable in the office and asking questions. The staff is all very friendly and helpful.
I have not seen the space under my bra line since I was 14 years old. I have worn a large bra for as long as I have known myself. Thank you for making me feel good about myself. My dream of sleeveless clothes has finally come true.
Dr. Wingate is great! He explained my procedures, recovery time, and what results I could expect. The results exceeded my expectations.
– Jay S.
Dr. Wingate and everyone here is absolutely the best! I felt comfortable right from the start. The work they did & the manner & kindness with which they did it has made an incredible difference in my life – both physically & emotionally. Coming here was the best decision I’ve ever made.
