At less than three months post op, I am extremely pleased with the experience and results that I received after undergoing a deep plane face and neck lift , upper blepharoplasty, and lip lift with Doctor Jonathan Zelken. I look 15 years younger, totally natural and more beautiful than I ever did in my youth. The scars are totally hidden and the procedure was painless. The entire office staff is caring and competent. The follow up is amazing. I interviewed several top-notch plastic surgeons before making the decision to go with Dr. Zelken and I am so glad that I did. His skillful attention to detail, understanding of aesthetics and genuine character are impressive.

I recently had my first consultation with Dr. Zelken, and I couldn’t be more impressed. He came highly recommended by a reputable source, and after seeing his work firsthand, I knew I had to schedule an appointment. I complimented a woman my exact age on her incredibly youthful appearance, and she kindly shared that she had undergone a facelift with Dr. Zelken less than a year ago. I was blown away—her results were so natural and seamless that I couldn’t detect a single scar on her bare face. She simply looked refreshed and rejuvenated. After doing my own research, I was drawn to Dr. Zelken’s approach, which prioritizes natural, beautiful results. Scheduling my consultation through his website was incredibly easy, and his office team was prompt, professional, and courteous in their response. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted warmly, and the entire office was impeccably clean, modern, and welcoming. Dr. Zelken was right on time, which I greatly appreciated. He made me feel completely comfortable, took the time to thoroughly answer all of my questions, and never made me feel rushed. His expertise and attention to detail were evident, and I left feeling confident that he is the right surgeon to help me achieve my goals. If you’re looking for a highly skilled plastic surgeon who delivers exceptional, natural-looking results, I wholeheartedly recommend scheduling a consultation with Dr. Zelken. I’m confident you won’t be disappointed.

Absolutely botched. What was supposed to be a straightforward radio frequency treatment and buccal fat removal turned into a living nightmare that cost me a year of my life and over $15k to repair. After being unable to locate the buccal fat, he opted to liposuction my cheeks further (without consent, while under sedation) to “mimic” the look. I was left with large notches, facial indents and incredible skin laxity. After consulting with 9 different board certified facial plastic surgeons (Zelken is not ABFPRS or ENT board certified, which are facial-specific specialties) the collective suggestion for repair was a fat transfer and a mini facelift, both of which I completed late last year. Please do your research thoroughly. I beg anyone reading this that is considering any facial surgery/treatments to look elsewhere, specifically to surgeons who have the facial board certification specialties (again, Dr. Zelken does not). There is a reason he has to market himself so heavily on YouTube - you’ll notice that the endorsements and testimonials are always his alone, never actual patients.

I first wrote a review months ago. I wanted to provide an update. I had a facelift with Dr. Zelken almost a year ago and am thrilled with the result. I still look like myself, but much, much better. And the increase in my confidence, in this later stage of my life, has increased immeasurably. He is extremely knowledgeable, extremely skilled, and extremely caring. He also has a terrific sense of humor, which makes him a pleasure to be with--and greatly eases one's anxiety. Orange County is full of surgeons. I can't imagine seeing anyone else, or anyone better. Just look at all these fabulous reviews! You can trust them. Believe me, Dr. Zelken is the surgeon you want.
