I am so happy with Dr Farrah Yau! Three weeks ago she gave me a facelift/neck lift and blepharoplasty. ALREADY the results are amazing - my husband can’t stop marveling at how good I look. Dr Yau provided excellent care pre and post-op. I’m a retired ICU nurse so I feel qualified to assess surgical competence - and Dr Yau exceeded all my expectations. Michelle Gagne

My experience with Dr.Yau stemmed from my breast cancer diagnosis. She was tremendously reassuring that she could help me feel like me again. She was right, I am beyond happy with my results and my ongoing care post surgery. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. Her entire team including her residents and Leanne at the office have made this experience a positive one.

Being diagnosed with breast cancer was life altering. Hearing that I needed a double mastectomy was crushing. The journey is scary because decisions have to be made very fast. I was blessed to have gotten Dr. Yau as my reconstructive plastic surgeon. Beyond being brilliant and highly respected, Dr. Yau is compassionate and certainly went beyond anything I could have hoped for in a surgeon. In our first meeting we made many decisions that once home I was overwhelmed by. I called Leanne, Dr. Yau’s administrative assistant, (a force who moves mountains to get things done), with a shopping list of questions and concerns. To my amazement, Dr. Yau hearing of my anxiety, called from her vacation and spent as much time as I needed to answer my questions and listen to my hopes for a final outcome. To an outsider my worries would have been superficial and frivolous because I should have been more worried about getting the cancer out. Dr. Yau made me feel heard and validated. That gesture alone was a turning point in my journey. My results are incredible, and I was NOT an easy patient. I am thin, had an undiagnosed bleeding disorder, and thin skin that had no buffer to hide the implant. Dr. Yau found the perfect cohesive implant for my body type and with fat grafting, when I look in the mirror I see a beautiful woman, not someone ravaged by breast cancer. Dr. Yau is a brilliant surgeon and an artist. She will tell you what is realistic and do what is right for you in order to have the best and safest outcome possible. Would I recommend her... without hesitation! In fact I will praise and share the experiences I have with her to anyone who will listen or who is looking for a plastic surgeon. I was not an easy reconstruction and we had to do some revisions but if she can make me look better than I did before cancer than she is beyond talented.

It's been almost a year (10 months) since my breast augmentation surgery with Dr. Yau. I am so bitterly disappointed and heartbroken with my results. I have always been flat chested and have wanted this surgery since I was a teenager. During the consultation I made it as clear as I could that I definitely wanted some size and that this was important to me. The day of the surgery she presents me with the smallest implants were even being offered, I panicked and started to cry, I begged her for the next size up, I just wanted to leave at that point but she assured me "I would love them". For about a month post op I was happy with them, but then I realized that this is as good as it gets and they aren't going to change anymore. Ever since then I've been extremely depressed, some people are surprised when I tell them I've had a breast augmentation as they are so disappointingly small. What was supposed to be a life changing, confidence boosting experience has turned into something that brings to to tears several times per week, I wish to god that I'd have gone with another doctor. If you go with Dr. Yau you'll be given the smallest possible implants, choose wisely unlike I did.
