Dr. Grace Yu, MD

Dr. Yu is so pleasant to talk with and just a wonderful person. In my case it was personal and she made me feel comfortable. I met with her several times before my surgery and was confident with my decision on selecting her as my surgeon. It's been 4 months since my surgery and I'm happy with my results.

Dr Yu is incredibly knowledgeable and talented in plastic surgery. I went in wanting to have my breast implants removed. She walked me through the options and listened to the desired look I was going for. After deciding the implant removal with breast lift would be the best option, I decided to move forward with surgery. The office staff was all super helpful and worked with me to schedule a date. As stressful as surgery can be, the staff was so warm and made me feel very comfortable. Dr Yu went over everything before hand and what the outcome would be like. I really liked the post op care the office gave, the appointments felt like Dr Yu really made sure things were healing well and answered all my questions along the way. She had so much knowledge with suture care and tips to promote healing. I’m really happy with the procedure results. The implants were huge and I had so much skin that sagged. She is a true artist. My skin felt so thin before and now everything is firm and in right place. Just an amazing and symmetrical result that was better than I ever thought possible. Dr Yu is an incredible surgeon.

I recently had a tummy tuck, muscle repair, and liposuction performed by Dr. Yu and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the entire experience. From my first consultation Dr. Yu and her team exceeded all my expectations.Consultation and Pre-Op: During my initial consultation, Dr. Yu took the time to thoroughly explain the procedures and what I could realistically expect in terms of results and recovery. She listened carefully to my goals and concerns, and her honest, straightforward approach immediately put me at ease. The office staff was incredibly professional and accommodating, ensuring that every step leading up to the surgery was seamless.Surgical Day Experience: On the day of the surgery, the entire team made me feel comfortable and confident. Dr. Yu has a remarkable bedside manner; she was calm, reassuring, and clearly communicated each step of the process. The nursing staff and anesthesiologist were equally outstanding, providing exceptional care and making sure I felt safe and supported throughout.Results and Recovery: The results of my tummy tuck, muscle repair, and lipo are nothing short of amazing. Dr. Yu delivered exactly what she promised, and the transformation has surpassed my expectations. My stomach is flatter and firmer, and the contouring from the liposuction has given me the shape I always wanted. The recovery process was well-managed with clear instructions and consistent follow-up care. Dr. Yu and her team checked in regularly, ensuring my healing was on track and addressing any questions I had. Even though I am only 2 months post op I am beyond satisfied with the care I received from Dr. Yu and her team. Their expertise, attention to detail, and genuine concern for my well-being made this entire experience positive and life-changing. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Yu to anyone considering these procedures. Her skill and dedication are truly unparalleled, and I am so grateful for the confidence she has helped me regain.

Dr. Yu is wonderful. Not only is her bedside manner fantastic, you feel like you’ve got a friend with you every step of the way. Her follow up appointments are great, leaves you feeling at peace knowing she cares after the job is done. She is knowledgeable about more than one might expect a surgeon to be. I will go to her again, should I decide to have any future surgeries. She’s the best!!!

Dr.Yu is kindest, most compassionate and knowledgeable doctor I have ever met... that and she is so sweet! I am a breast cancer survivor. I was diagnosed after I had breast implants. I had lumpectomy surgery and radiation. In October my right implant deflated. I called my primary doctor immediately but I could not get an appointment for 5 months. I started to research plastic surgeons and I found Advanced Institute of Plastic Surgery in Temecula. They had great reviews and they were close to home. I called and got an appointment immediately! I was so impressed with the scheduling person. She took a lot of time to talk to me about my situation and history. She said she had the perfect fit for me... Dr. Yu. I was scheduled within a week! I am so very impressed with Advanced Institute! Every person I have encountered has been so kind and cheerful. The office is run so efficiently. I never have to wait for more than 10 minutes to see Dr. Yu. I absolutely adore Dr. Yu. She is so gentle and compassionate. Dr. Yu specializes in breast cancer and reconstruction so she was a perfect fit for me. My first appointment with her, she took a lot of time talking to me. She explained all options available to me in detail. Because I had breast cancer and radiation treatment, replacing my implant was not an option. She removed my implants, did a lift on the non-radiated breast and a fat transfer to the radiated breast to give it a little more volume. I am so pleased with the results! I am so very grateful for Dr. Yu, and the entire staff at Advanced Institute. I could go on for days and fill pages with praises for her and her staff. I truly feel so blessed and fortunate that I had such a positive experience. I highly recommend Dr. Yu... she is in every way perfection!
