Pasadena Plastic Surgery: Michael Schwartz, MD

Located in the heart of Pasadena, California, Pasadena Plastic Surgery is the private practice of Dr. Michael Schwartz, a board-certified facial plastic surgeon and cosmetic surgeon with over 20 years of clinical experience. Situated at 425 S Fair Oaks Avenue, the clinic is known for its personalized approach to aesthetic enhancement, combining surgical precision with a deep understanding of facial and body harmony.

Dr. Schwartz’s background includes a Doctorate of Medicine from Loyola University Stritch School of Medicine, a residency in internal medicine at LAC+USC Medical Center, and a five-year fellowship in otolaryngology, head, and neck surgery at USC. He is certified by both the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and the American Board of Otolaryngology, and is a diplomate of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery.

The clinic offers a wide range of facial procedures, with rhinoplasty being one of the most requested. Dr. Schwartz is known for his ability to refine nasal structure while preserving or improving function, creating results that are both aesthetically pleasing and natural. Facelifts, eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty), and neck lifts are also popular, helping patients achieve a more youthful and refreshed appearance without looking overdone.

For patients seeking body contouring, the clinic provides liposuction, tummy tucks, and body lifts, often as part of a mommy makeover package. These procedures are tailored to restore body shape and confidence, particularly after pregnancy or significant weight loss. Dr. Schwartz was among the early adopters of the tumescent liposuction technique and has continued to refine his approach with technologies like VASER Hi-Def Liposuction and Smartlipo®.

Breast procedures are another cornerstone of the practice, including breast augmentation, breast lift, and breast reduction. Dr. Schwartz applies meticulous closure techniques from facial plastic surgery to all breast and body procedures, minimizing scarring and enhancing aesthetic outcomes.

The clinic also offers non-surgical treatments such as laser tattoo removal, laser skin rejuvenation, and tattoo revision, as well as facial implants for patients seeking structural enhancement. These services are performed in a safe, accredited environment with a focus on patient comfort and satisfaction.

Dr. Schwartz’s philosophy centers on achieving results that look natural and harmonious with the patient’s existing features.
