Dr. Stewart Wang, a board-certified plastic surgeon providing cosmetic plastic surgery procedures to the Inland Empire and San Gabriel Valley, has been recognized with the "Best of Alhambra" award. This award identifies businesses and service providers who offer high quality work and exceptional levels of satisfaction among their communities and clientele.

While researching their cosmetic options, many of Dr. Wang's patients have seen advertisements featuring physicians claiming that they are "board certified." Understandably, many people think all "board certified" physicians have the same credentials. Nothing could be further from the truth. The unfortunate reality is that any group of medical professionals can get together and create its own board certification. These organizations confuse patients and devalue the credentials of physicians who have earned board certification from a board recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS).

Dr. Wang and his staff want to wish you the best this holiday season and look forward to continuing to serve you in the New Year.

Believe it or not, it is possible to have the shapely breasts you've always wanted without scars. Dr. Wang is now offering breast augmentation procedures using TUBA incisions. TUBA, or trans-umbilical, incisions, also known as belly-button or navel incisions, are made at the very edge of the navel. Dr. Wang then creates a pathway to the breast under the skin, makes a pocket and inserts a breast implant.

The Contour ThreadLift™ is an innovation in non-surgical facelift procedures that allows Dr. Wang to give you a natural looking facial enhancement without surgery. The Contour ThreadLift™ is cutting edge technology that doesn’t need a scalpel and doesn’t leave scars. It’s an ideal answer for people who look for predictable improvement with significant downtime. This is also a great procedure for people with early to moderate aging but not quite ready for a traditional facelift procedure.
