Board-certified plastic surgery and a full med spa in Point Loma — where natural results, a team that treats you like family, and a whole lot of San Diego sunshine come standard.
Some of the most moving work we do happens after the big stuff — major weight loss, motherhood, a body that's carried you through a whole life. Removing the loose skin, restoring the curves, bringing back the version of you that's been there all along. It's not about chasing someone else's face or figure. It's about you, feeling like you again — and watching that confidence grow with every step of the journey.

Dr. Charlie Chen is a board-certified plastic surgeon with expertise across both plastic and general surgery — and a simple philosophy: the best work doesn't announce itself. He calls it the generation of natural plastic surgery — results that look like the best, most rested, most confident version of you, never like you "had something done."
He earned his M.D. at Loyola University Chicago, completed a general surgery residency at Yale, a plastic surgery residency at UC San Diego, and an aesthetic surgery fellowship — and is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. He's also fluent in English, Mandarin, and Taiwanese, so more of his patients feel understood from the very first hello.
Closer to home, he's been named a Castle Connolly Top Doctor, one of San Diego Magazine's "50 People to Watch" (2026), and Best of San Diego by the San Diego Reader — and holds a perfect 5.0 rating across his RealSelf patient reviews.
