Dr. Alberto Lara Plastic Surgery

I have been a patient of Dr. Lara since 2021. I have had 2 different procedures and both times I've had amazing experiences. I have no complaints as his knowledge, his staff, his reputation and his work are impecable. He is also, if not the only one in TJ, one of very few surgeon's that provide pain pump after surgery, which I found to be vital in my recovery. His staff is also on top of things and very responsive. Fernanda was my coordinator and I haven't had any issues. Yes, there will be a deposit to hold a day for a procedure and they're very clear to explain that it is not refunded for obvious reasons. This doctor is busy for good reasons, and if you book a procedure with him you are taking time from someone else being able to have that appointment. The doctor is fully certified and his anesthesiologist is not only extremely professional but very caring and knowledgeable. The nurses that prepare you for the surgery (Lupita) are also very kind and with a good bedside manner. There is so much more positive information I could to say but I hope this is enough to assist someone in making the right decision in choosing the best doctor.

I've seen Dr Lara twice now. He did my tummy tuck with muscle repair in 2021. Everyone tells me my tummy looks like I have abs lol I workout but not that intense lol No complaints he did a great job. Now In 2026 he did my upper bleph. I have hooded eyes and just about a week into my healing I can see my results. Super happy with this surgery as well! He has a great sense of humor and bed side manor. I definitely recommend him and his team! I had coordinator Arlene both times. She always answered anything I had to ask via email.

Dr Lara and his staff are truly exceptional!! I am so very grateful for the care and support I have had during this entire journey. Dr Lara performed a circular lipectomy with liposuction, a breast lift with implants and a little bbl. His professionalism and expertise is apparent from the moment we met! I couldn’t be happier with my results!! I highly recommend him!

Dr Lara and his staff are simply amazing! I love how attentive they are from the time you arrive until after you leave. I’ve NEVER HAD even one issue with anything Dr Lara has done for me. He is a remarkable surgeon!

I had surgery in 2022. My experience was good for the most part. No complications minimal pain. His team is excellent. He might be a little too natural for my liking. I feel like I could’ve had a little more back there and maybe have added hips as I don’t have any and I asked for some. Also, one side is slightly bigger than the other side. I took care very well and followed instructions. Didn’t sleep on my sides or on my back for almost 8 months. And wore my faja for over a year. And, even though his care team there was excellent they never called to check up on me after I left them. No follow up or anything of that nature. If you’re looking for a super natural/minimalist change I recommend Dr. Lara. He is very nice and honest. His staff is also very nice.
