At PERK Plastic Surgery, we abide by three simple rules for the practice of aesthetics
Dr. Lee specializes in facial aesthetic surgery and is a perfectionist in creating natural and harmonious results. From hidden incisions to subtle changes, Dr. Lee focuses on millimeter level details to contour and rejuvenate the face. Whether the right procedure is a brow lift to raise a sagging brow, blepharoplasty to refresh the eyes, a facelift to unwind ten years off the clock, a neck lift to sculpt an aging jawline or chin augmentation to balance the face, every facial aesthetic procedure is bespoke and designed based on your unique anatomy.
Facial Rejuvenation Procedures »Dr. Lee believes that knowledge is empowerment, and she is passionate about education before any treatment. She will thoroughly explore your options with you. We will make sure you understand the timing, risks, benefits, recovery, and expected outcomes for your procedure.

If you suffer from painful, debilitating migraines, you may be excited to learn about nonsurgical and surgical options that can help restore your quality of life. Dr. Lee was personally trained by the founder of migraine surgery and authored numerous articles in leading plastic surgery journals on innovative migraine surgery techniques and outcomes.
Migraine surgery can help alleviate discomfort by isolating and removing migraine triggers. These triggers are commonly found around the forehead, temples, inside the nose and back of the head. As an added benefit of the surgery, the aesthetic appearance of some of these areas can also be improved with treatment.

These include abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) to reduce excess abdominal skin and tighten separated six pack muscles, liposuction to sculpt unwanted fat, and brachioplasty to contour the arms and remove extra skin.

We strive for results that appear effortless and blend seamlessly with your existing anatomy. Every client is approached as an individual; Dr. Lee will only suggest procedures that serve your aesthetic interests.

The mission of the non-profit is to help children with deformities through reconstructive plastic surgery. Dr. Lee was first involved in the organization when she was in high school in San Diego. Together with other local artists, they put on multiple musical concerts to raise awareness and funds for the organization.
