Bay Area Esthetics Plastic Surgery San Francisco - San Francisco, California

Christine and David Beekman / Dawson

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Pourtaheri. The moment you walk in his office you feel welcome. He took the time to explain to me step-by-step the surgical procedure, and he answered all of my questions and concerns before and after the procedure. I felt really listened to and very well taken care of. The results of the surgery are just amazing! He is a gifted surgeon, an incredible medical professional and a very kind person. I highly recommend Dr. Pourtaheri !

Dr. Pourtaheri is an extremely kind, patient, and talented surgeon. I was initially nervous to pursue plastic surgery - looking to improve my face and breasts. He did a wonderful job for both, with no recovery time - no bruising, no pain. I have been to both offices, the SF one has a gorgeous view and the Petaluma one is convenient and private. The staff is very responsive and answered all my questions. I HIGHLY recommend Bay Area Esthetics to anyone looking for excellent results and a stress-free experience.

I was referred to Bay Area Esthetics from my primary care physician, for a infection on my finger. The very minute i met Dr. Pourtaheri, i could tell he put the personal well being of his patients before anything else. He was knowledgeable, caring, and was generally concerned with my well being and comfort. He was able to on the same visit conduct a treatment that could start the healing process on my finger. I could tell he was a very different Dr. than i was used to. From my discussions with him, It was apparent he used his skills to heal and care for his patients, and that is his primary focus. His staff, (Dane to mention one) is a pleasure to interact with, and they take the time to reach out with any concerns or questions you may have. Fantastic group of people, and I highly recommend.

Dr. Pourtaheri’s approach with dermal fillers and Botox has me looking and feeling totally refreshed. I love the natural and subtle results.

I’ve been consistent with injections for a while now but his skill is totally unmatched.

I also love their patient concierge - I really feel catered to.

All around 5 stars from me. I’ll be back soon for my next appointment!

Dr. Pourtaheri performed an excellent hand surgery on my severely injured hands on Nov. 27, 2023. In the surgery room, I half jokingly said to him, " Now my hands are in your hands...please take care of them..." Well, after 97 stitches and tendons/nerves repaired, and not being able to do anything at all with my hands, now my fingers are recovering very well under his care, I'm so glad finally I've got my hands back!

Besides his excellence in his medical skills, he is also very caring and sympathetic. Thank you so much, Dr. Pourtaheri!

I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Pourtaheri through a family member referral. She had been to numerous cosmetic plastic surgeons who recommended over-the-top procedures to make a quick buck. According to her, Dr. Pourtaheri was different. He makes the patient's best interest his first priority. After going to Dr. Pourtaheri for my consultation, I couldn't agree more with my family member's assessment. He is one of the most professional, empathetic and visionary people I have ever come across in the medical field. His recommendations are sound, in good taste and not money oriented. I would highly recommend a visit to his office prior to committing to any cosmetic procedure.

Dr. Pourtaheri is an excellent doctor and advocate for natural beauty. He came highly recommended by a friend and I’m so happy to be his patient now. I feel like every time we chat he has my best interest in mind and wants me to end up with the best possible result. I went to him complaining about saggy, crepey skin (I’m 40). He recommended a series of lasers that would give me a mini lift. He told me I don’t need surgery and won’t need it for a while. I started back in November with a co2 laser and just ended my last rf microneedling in the series. I couldn’t be happier! I feel rejuvenated, confident and look visibly younger. I’ve been getting so many compliments on my skin.

Dr. Pourtaheri cares about the type of skincare and devices he provides to his patients. He only does procedures he believes in. He won’t sell you on unnecessary things.

His bedside manner is great. He makes you feel comfortable and has a great sense of humor. I would highly recommend a visit if you’re looking to enhance your beauty in any way

SHERRY MONEY

I recently met with Dr. Pourtaheri for a consultation. I found him to be a caring and gentle man, easy to talk with. I was very comfortable with him.
He wasn't rushed and very thorough explaining the procedure.

I'd like to add, his office staff is as genuine as he is.
