I had such a good experience with Dr. Sato. She is very thorough and careful and my body handled the fat transfer procedure really well. She is big on informed consent and gave me realistic expectations, and I'm so pleased with my results. The recovery and downtime went smoothly for me because of her care and instructions. Dr. Sato is a talented surgeon and genuinely a good human, you will be in good hands with her š¤
Dr. Sato is the best!! I got a breast reduction and she did such a good job and is even better at following up! I had 3 post op appointments and got to talk to her personally so she can answer any questions and she also gave me her number to text anytime and she usually replies within minutes!! I would 100% recommend her!!
Dr. Sato is amazing! She and all of her staff are so kind. She never rushed my appointments & always listened to all of my questions or concerns. She performed a breast implant explant, lift, extended tummy tuck and lipo on me. I am 6 weeks post op and loving my results! I am so thankful I found her. She will forever be my surgeon if I ever need any other work.
Dr. Sato is truly exceptional. She has a calm, confident presence that immediately puts you at ease, and she takes the time to really listen. What sets Dr. Sato apart is not just her surgical skill ā which is unmatched ā but also her GENUINE care for her patients.
She was incredibly thorough in explaining the procedure, the recovery process, and what to realistically expect. I never felt rushed or pressured. Her attention to detail and commitment to natural, beautiful results really shows in her work.
Iām beyond thrilled with my outcome ā itās everything I hoped for and more. Dr. Sato has given me a renewed sense of confidence, and Iāll always be grateful for her expertise and kindness. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a surgeon who is not only talented, but truly cares about her patients.
I received a tummy tuck and lipid with Dr.Sato and I am over the moon with my results. She was very thorough leading up to my surgery and after, so I knew what to expect at every stage and she was always a text or call away if I had a question. My biggest fear going into the surgery was pain management immediately after and her team made sure my pain was at a comfortable level before they sent me home. Iām two months post op and Dr.Sato is just as responsive as she was in the beginning. I also appreciate seeing her at all of my post op visits and not just her staff. I can tell she takes a lot of pride in her work. 10/10 I recommend for any mom that wants to get their body back!
Currently I am in Week 5 of my recovery journey from a procedure with Dr. Erika Sato. I have received nothing but full support, encouragement, expertise, and professionalism during my entire experienceāfrom my first interface with her Patient Care Coordinator Adrian; to the pre-op/procedural/post-op medical team; to the front-desk staff; and of course, from āstart to finishā with Dr. Sato herself.
I had already paid consultation fees with other surgeons, but the second I sat down with double-board certified Dr. Sato, I knew she was the right surgeon for me (so I was totally confident in cancelling with other equally well-known surgeons in Houston). Dr. Satoās bedside manner shines with professionalism, critical-and-creative thinking, warmth, honesty, and in my opinion, exceptionally high patient care with a strong focus on safety. Plastic surgeryāor any surgery for that matterācan be intimate and vulnerable for any patient. It was important for me to feel comfortable with the surgeon I chose for my procedure. Needless to say, I felt VERY comfortable with Dr. Sato as my surgeon.
She even mentioned evidence-based research to respond to my concerns and questions about my surgery. I also appreciated Dr. Satoās photo gallery of patientsā befores and afters on her websiteāthese real patient photos even included a few clinical notes (this was way more valuable to me than plastic surgery photos that are often retouched/enhanced and then hyped up by social media).
Dr. Sato gave me motivation, assurance and realistic expectations based on my lifestyle, body type, and age. Honestly, even though I am in Week 5āand 12 weeks is considered the early part of a āfull recoveryā timeline for my procedureāI am BEYOND thrilled with my results so far. My goal was to have ānoticeably naturalā results and Dr. Sato more than delivered on that goal. Her aesthetic eye and surgical know-how are uncannyāI had an image in my head on how I āwantedā to look and Dr. Sato surpassed my image (in a really good way!).
At the same time, I also feel it is my responsibility as a patient to protect my investment and ensure good outcomes (itās a partnership with your surgeon, after all). During my pre-op visit with Nurse Florella, I asked a lot of questions and I was given a pre-op master packet to review, which I read three times before my surgery! I knew this procedure was going to be a financial, physical, and psychological investment. My adherence to aftercare and post-op recommendations are just as important as the procedure itself, so Iāve done my best to follow all pre-op and post-op rules AND attend all follow-up appointments with Dr. Sato.
Communications with Dr. Satoās team was seamless. Adrian was on top of everything as far as all non-medical logistics I needed help with. After my procedure, the medical assistants and nurses were always accessible during business hours with my clinical questions through a special, medical-messaging interface (secure) called Klara. More impressively, Dr. Sato gave me her personal cell phone number after my procedure so that I could contact her with any pressing concerns outside of business hours. How many surgeons in this world would dare to give you their personal number? I would wager probably not many.
Thank you, Dr. Sato (and Team Sato) for your professionalism, support, and amazing outcomes!
Three pregnancies and years of the weight gain/loss/gain roller coaster had really taken a toll on my body. I had a lot of excess skin that needed to be removed. I consulted with a surgeon near my house and didnāt feel comfortable with them. I then consulted with Dr. Sato and knew she was the right choice for me. I immediately knew I was in competent hands and that she would make every effort to not only make my body beautiful, but keep me safe while doing so. I had a circumferential tummy tuck/lower body lift with fleur de lis, lipo and monsplasty. The surgery center staff was all very nice and I felt well cared for. Her medical assistant Savannah is very sweet. Her coordinator Adrian handled my calls and emails like a champ and felt like a friend. Dr. Sato sees all of her patients postop herself so that she can stay on top of your recovery, which I really appreciate. Many surgeons defer their postop visits to their nurse but she does it all. Dr. Sato and her staff have all been available at any time for questions or concerns. Dr. Sato is kind, thorough and brilliant at her craft. I know I made the best possible choice for my surgery! Iāll also add that I recently visited her for neurotoxin (Letybo) injections and my face has never looked better. Iām a patient and friend for life! Thank you to the entire team!
I went to Dr Sato for a mommy makeover after having 5 kids and suffering from severe diastatis recti. I couldnāt be happier with my decision. I has a consult with 3 different doctors and know I landed with the right one. Sheās straight forward and her bed side manner is amazing. I had direct access to her post surgery and she always answered my questions. Not to mention I look amazing lol. Highly recommend her
Dr. Sato was referred to me by a family member and after months of going through her websites, socials, and before and afters, I decided to book a consultation. At our consultation I voiced wanting to do a labiaplasty and bbl. As other reviews mention, Dr. Sato sets clear and realistic expectations, considerations, and suggestions. For both of my procedures Dr. Sato and her care team always treated me so sweetly and stayed available for my questions and concerns during my recovery process which gave me such peace of mind.
Labiaplasty 8 months post-op:
Based on my anatomy and lifestyle, Dr. Sato decided the wedge method would align best with my vision. My procedure was done under local anesthetic and lasted just under an hour and a half in a room with a tv and remote in hand for a comfortable, low-stress experience. I was on modified bedrest for a couple of weeks and was cleared to workout after 6 weeks. Iām now fully healed and iām so happy with my results.
BBL 4 months post-op:
For my BBL, I got lipo 360, chin lipo, and arm lipo. Iām 5ā2 135lbs and was given realistic expectations. On the day of surgery, I arrived, changed into my gown, went over medical history, and Dr. Sato came in and marked me up and in I went into the operating room. First week post-op was the hardest especially because I had drains but by following post-op instructions for garments and lymphatic massages, salt/water intake, i had both removed a little past 1 week. Throughout my follow up appointments Dr. Sato kept a close eye on my incisions, bruising, swelling, and overall progress to ensure great results. Iām particularly happy with my silhouette change, volume retained in my butt, and the ongoing checkups.
Had my consultation today and Dr. Sato was incredibly nice, professional and knowledgeable. I will be going forward with my procedure and keep yāall posted.
Update: I had my first procedure a couple weeks ago and I am enjoying the results, I am getting my 2nd derma pen in a couple weeks.
I had an abdominoplasty with liposuction done last November by Dr Sato. She was highly recommended by a friend who is a Dr and also a patient of Dr Sato. I didn't have to think twice because my friend's body was a testament to how amazing Dr Sato's hands are. I felt really comfortable talking to her. She and her staff took their time to explain the whole procedure and aftercare plan. Right from when I walked into the office, I felt extremely comfortable. Dr Sato is very passionate about her work. She went out of her way to accommodate my schedule. I highly recommend her.
My consult with Dr. Erika Sato this morning on P-Shot and accompanying BOTOX was very professional, relaxed, helpful, and thorough. She spent sufficient time explaining both of my procedures in detail and answered every single one of my questions.
Also, Adrian (Dr. Satoās Patient Care Coordinator) is a rock star!
Dr. Sato and her staff are truly the best! Dr. Sato is so patient and honest with every appointment and procedure. I will forever recommend her to anyone that is looking for a plastic surgeon and will always go back to her for any future procedures I want. Thank you Dr. Sato! ā¤ļøāš„
I had been researching and contemplating a tummy tuck for 4-5 years and knew I needed to lose more weight to get better results. I went to Dr. Sato for semiglutide shots to help with the weight loss and I absolutely fell in love with Dr.Sato and her staff (Savannah and Adrian).
At each office visit during my the weight loss journey, I asked Dr. Sato questions about various procedures, my concerns and desired outcome. She was great about answering my questions and explaining things to my satisfaction. She was straightforward about what results could be achieved. She didnāt over promise or under deliver. I have to say Dr. Satoās work is amazing and Iām over the moon with my results. I initially had a tummy tuck, muscle repair, lipo 360 and breast lift. Then I went back for an upper bleph and submental chin lipo with Renuvion. A CO2 laser treatment is in my future.
Did I mention the excellent after care Dr. Sato and her staff provide!
