I am very pleased with the results of my procedure with Dr. Lin. From the very start, he answered all of my questions and was easy to communicate with. I felt very comfortable and safe in his hands, and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional, kind, and warm doctor.
I had Dr. Lin for two different cosmetic procedures and I would whole heartedly recommend him to anyone who is looking into getting cosmetics done. From the very beginning it was an incredible experience. He was always very helpful and patient in answering all the questions I asked him (there was over 30!) and he is great at making you feel comfortable and heard. One of the things I loved about him is he doesn’t sugarcoat things to you and explains everything in as many different ways as you need so you fully understand everything. He gives you the best advice so that you may have the best possible outcomes. He checks in with you many times before surgery to make sure you are feeling good about your decision and is always reachable to you. The day of surgery went so smoothly. He has the very best team that takes care of everything from the IVs to placing the marks so that you are the least stressed as possible. I had no complications and I am in love with the results. I am in awe everyday with my new body and it is all thanks to Dr. Lin!
I am writing this letter as a follow up to my daughter, Angela’s, Rhinoplasty and deviated septum surgery in August. Knowing that you have so many patients, I will try to familiarize you with her situation. She had, at this point in time, just completed her freshman year in college and was about to transfer to San Francisco. She came to you primarily to have nose surgery. As a parent, I always believed that my daughter was a beautiful young woman. However, my husband and I supported her in her decision to have her nose “fixed”. She had a minor bump and had been the subject of bullying in high school and middle school because of her nose. As bright and as talented as my daughter was, her confidence in her appearance and in other aspects of her life had been compromised. She had a very successful surgery at your gifted hands. You were able to repair her deviated septum but, more importantly, you were able to shave down the bump and sculpt her nose. What a beautiful job! She just graduated, Cum-Laude, from college with a degree in Public Relations/Political Science. She is staying in San Francisco and has a job with a communications firm. I recently asked her what professor made the biggest impact on her college career and she quickly replied that, “It wasn’t a professor; it was Dr. Lin”. She went on to tell me in a mother/daughter conversation that Dr. Lin “made me realize that I wasn’t ugly”. This comment tugged at my heartstrings, but I wanted you to know that you were directly responsible for restoring her confidence in herself. We are very proud of her as she begins her career. She is a happy, vibrant, and accomplished young woman. You were a huge part of her success! Hope that all in well with you. Enclosed is a picture of her at her graduation. Thank you for your part in her happiness! Thank you so very much for your brilliant work!
I just wanted to extend my sincere thanks for the compassionate and skillful care you-and your team-have provided my spouse during her nose reconstruction. I have watched her regain her confidence, and spirit, with each healing day that passes. It is thanks to your skill that she did not have to go through the forehead flap procedure, and thanks to you that she is healing beautifully! Your caring and gentle nature transformed her nervousness and uncertainty into courage and confidence. Thank you for being who you are and doing what you do!
My visit to you on July 14 turned out to be bittersweet! I am thrilled at how well my nose healed – however, every time I visited your office it was a shot in the arm. You and your staff could not have been more supportive and encouraging. I will be forever grateful.
During my last two visits with you, there was so much for me to process with my new nose, that I never thanked you properly for all that you did. I could not be happier with the results. For the first time, I can breathe and the cosmetic outcome is perfection. You cannot see the suture line! Your work is impeccable. I am very grateful to you, and it will be a pleasure to recommend you to my friends and colleagues.
Dear Dr. Lin,
I really appreciate the time and effort you took into making my nose surgery a success. You made me feel so comfortable and I couldn’t be happier with my results! Thank you for helping me get my confidence back. You are truly an incredible doctor.
Thank you so much for the great work you did on my breast reduction. I can’t tell you how much happier (not to mention easier) my life is now, and I have you to thank. I have been recommending you to everyone who asks, and I will continue to do so. Keep up the great work!
When I took off the bandages and the surgical bra and looked in the mirror, for the first time since my mastectomy cancer was not looking back at me. Thank you so much. I am proud and always have been to be a cancer survivor. It is like a badge of honor that reminds me when I doubt myself I can do whatever I have to. However before the surgery I didn’t feel like I looked the same. Not only am I proud to say I am a breast cancer survivor, but I also thanks to you look better than I did before. May God bless you and your family. Please enjoy the cookies that my daughter and I made. Thanks again.
Just wanted to drop a quick line to tell you how grateful I am for your recently performed surgery. I feel fantastic, look awesome and only wish I had done it sooner. A-One service by all. Thank you so much. I am forever grateful.
I’m so grateful for all you’ve done for me this year – thank you. Merry Christmas!

I had an amazing one month of virtual rotation with Dr Lin. Dr Lin was an excellent teacher, always keen to teach and explain difficult concepts. I learned so much about plastic surgery during the month, which flew by in the blink of an eye. He solidified my interest in plastic surgery and was extremely dedicated to ensuring our questions were answered. His passion for the field of plastic surgery was very infectious and made learning very exciting and enjoyable. Looking forward to in-person rotations when possible!
Going in, I had a certain level of expectation from this rotation and was very happy when each and every one of them was met. Dr Lin’s virtual rotation is an experience that is one of a kind. It is filled with so much knowledge of the field of Plastic and Reconstructive surgery and at the same time addressed a lot of pre-conceived notions I had of the field. I especially loved watching all the different types of procedures and techniques and having any questions I had be answered on the spot by Dr Lin- who was very unassuming and reflected his passion for his field onto us. I looked forward to logging into class every day and learning something fascinating. This month of learning has been one of the best educational encounters I’ve had and has further cemented my interest in the field.
I decided to contact Dr. Lin’s office after reading many good reviews. My own experience was like many others and I am grateful to Dr. Lin and his incredible team! They ensured I was well informed throughout the entire process from consultation to post-operation visits. Most importantly, I could not be happier with the outstanding results. Thank you Dr. Lin!
Dr. Lin and his team are absolutely fantastic. They are extremely thorough, responsive and attentive to detail. The entire process from consultation through post operative was a breeze. If you want a surgeon who is going to do an exceptional job and give you incredible results, Dr. Lin is your guy!
A good chance to learn the introduction of plastic surgery in one month. Saving time and money by learning online. Great amount of learning materials and quiz can be done online (this part is self-studying, self -paced). Have chance to view many plastic surgery video with teacher and classmates. Good atmosphere in the classes. A great experience, thank you, Dr. Lin!
I had the great opportunity to work with Dr.Lin in a virtual plastic surgery rotation during the month of November 2020. during my month with Dr.Lin I learned a lot about the basics of plastic surgeries as well as the new advances in plastic surgery. Dr.Lin was a great mentor, answering all of our questions and explaining the procedures for us. Dr.Lin opened my eyes to the field of plastic surgery a field I was always fascinated and interested in and my interest grew even further after my experience with him. Thank you Dr.Lin for the time and effort and I would always recommend this rotation to a friend or colleague.
I was 44, with a wife and four young children, when I decided to have a preventative bilateral mastectomy. My mom and I both have a breast cancer gene mutation. We were diagnosed with the gene after my mom got breast cancer. And after watching her go through chemo and radiation, it became clear that I did not want that for myself or my family. My wife and I met with several doctors in Connecticut but ultimately traveled to Boston to meet with Dr. Lin. I initially thought that I would reconstruct with expanders and a later exchange surgery. But Dr. Lin suggested that I do a direct implant. It turned out to be a really insightful suggestion. I think Dr. Lin understood that I needed to wake up from the surgery with implants because no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t seem to prepare myself for the alternative. Recovering from a bilateral mastectomy is physically hard, but the psychological pressure I had felt and fear of feeling disfigured or fundamentally unlike myself let up as soon as the procedure was over. I wasn’t unrecognizable to myself; and as I healed, I began to really liked the way I looked. I’m now a year out from my surgery. Every medical professional who I’ve seen in the last year—gynecologist, internal medicine doctor, nurses, etc.—has been amazed at my results, and each has remarked that this is why you see a real specialist. I’m grateful to Dr. Lin for both his expertise and for his incredibly thoughtful approach to my particular situation.
I had very good experience with Dr. Lin and his team for my procedure, they are very professional. I’m very satisfied with outcome of the surgery. He is the best. Highly recommended.
