Oliver EvansI can’t count how many times I’ve scrolled through Instagram, spotted a jawline or nose, and immediately knew a plastic surgeon had poorly done it.
You know the look—the nose lifted so high it seems ready for takeoff. It’s enough to make you wonder if some surgeons even have an eye for beauty.
Of course, not everyone has a bad experience, but the horror stories of botched procedures and regret are hard to ignore.
That’s what inspired us at Waterview Vancouver to dig deeper and find the true experts in plastic surgery—professionals who deliver natural, balanced, and beautiful results.
So, here are the experts who made our cut.
How much does it cost to get plastic surgery in Vancouver?
It costs at least 5,000 CAD to get basic plastic surgery in Vancouver.
This price is just an estimate. The actual price will depend on the type of plastic surgery you get, post-care treatment, and more.
1. Dr. Thomas Buonassisi – 8 West Clinic
Address: 1788 W Broadway 300 Floor 3
Contact Details: +1 604-229-6027
Operating Hours:
- Monday, Tuesday, Thursday & Friday – 9 AM to 5 PM
- Wednesday – 9 AM to 7 PM
Dr. Buonassisi’s expertise in rhinoplasty really stood out to us. He has a remarkable eye for detail and a talent for creating natural-looking noses that enhance facial features rather than distort them.
Patients who underwent facelifts and neck lifts praised his modern techniques. Many said they were able to achieve a youthful appearance without the “overdone” look, thanks to Dr. Bounassisi.
Another standout is his double eyelid surgery. Many clients noted how it subtly and beautifully enhanced their eyes.
The plastic surgery itself is performed with precision and skill. Many patients felt comfortable and safe throughout the process. Plus, the recovery was smooth, with minimal pain reported.
The only area for improvement lies in scheduling follow-up appointments. Some noted that the front desk staff were occasionally slow in arranging them, which caused minor frustration.
Ensures safe and comfortable procedure
“Had a great experience getting plastic surgery. I felt safe and taken care of before, during and after my procedure. I would definitely recommend Dr. Buonassisi and his team if you are looking to get work done.”

Exceptionally attentive team
“I am a 57 year old woman who underwent a deep plane face and lip lift three months ago. From my initial consultation online with Dr. Buonassisi I felt very reassured. He presented me with the best surgical procedure based on the concerns I described. Dr.Buonassisi and his team were exceptionally attentive particularly during the first 5 days post -operatively when I had pain and swelling. Although, I am only 3 months post-surgery, I am very pleased with the natural-looking results that I see in the mirror. The final results are yet to come in a few months. I truly appreciate Dr. Buonassisi’s expertise and attention to detail.
I am happy to have made the decision to undergo surgery now, allowing me to enjoy the results for years to come.
If you are considering facial plastic surgery, go for it and seek out Dr. Buonassisi who is simply the best in his field.”

2. Dr. Andrew B. Denton – Facial Plastic Surgeon
Address: 943 W Broadway #202
Contact Details: +1 604-879-3223
Operating Hours: Monday to Friday – 9 AM to 4:30 PM
Dr. Andrew Denton’s expertise in blepharoplasty, brow lifts, and rhinoplasty is unmistakable. It’s very evident in the natural-looking results he consistently delivers.
We were particularly impressed with his eyelid lifts. They give patients a refreshed look that resembles years of good sleep rather than signs of surgery.
The before-and-after photos of his brow lifts are equally impressive. They highlight a youthful, subtle lift that avoids the overly tight or unnatural look that can sometimes occur with this procedure.
Dr. Denton is also an excellent listener. He takes the time to understand his patients’ concerns and aesthetic goals, ensuring they feel heard and respected.
His post-operative care is another standout feature. He provides clear, detailed instructions to promote smooth healing, which patients find reassuring.
The only downside is that Dr. Denton’s fees are on the higher side. This might make his services less accessible to those on a budget.
Exceptional and prompt clinic staff
“After extensive research and several consultations around town, I was referred to Dr. Andrew Denton. Three months ago, I underwent a rhinoplasty, and I cannot thank Dr. Denton enough for transforming both my appearance and my self-esteem. The entire experience, from the initial consultation to the post-surgery care, was fantastic. By following all the provided instructions, my healing process was smooth and free of complications. The clinic staff were also exceptional, promptly responding to emails and phone inquiries and efficiently handling appointment bookings. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Denton and his team to anyone considering this procedure.”

Contact Details: +1 604-806-6360
Operating Hours:
- Monday to Friday – 8 AM to 5 PM
- Saturday – 9 AM to 4 PM
Pacific Plastic Surgery truly stands out, thanks to Dr. Demianczuk’s exceptional bedside manner. He genuinely takes the time to listen, making you feel heard and understood, which is so reassuring when you’re considering any procedure.
The results of his work truly speak for themselves. The online before-and-after gallery showcases impressive transformations, highlighting the positive impact of Dr. Demianczuk’s work.
His expertise covers a variety of procedures, including tummy tucks, restorative gynecology, and otoplasty (ear surgery).
The clinic staff are also fantastic. Many patients described them as responsive, helpful, and willing to go the extra mile to make the experience as smooth as possible.
We especially appreciated the clinic’s detailed post-operative instructions and the readily available support. They make the recovery for many feel so much less overwhelming.
Scheduling appointments is efficient, with short wait times. However, the front desk staff can occasionally be disorganized, leading to double-booked appointments—a minor hiccup in an otherwise excellent experience.

The process from start to finish was seamless and I am very happy with my results !

Address: 777 W Broadway #1000
Contact Details: +1 604-876-1688
Operating Hours: Monday to Friday – 9 AM to 5 PM
Dr. Sheina Macadam primarily caters to women. We love how deeply she understands the emotional and psychological impact plastic surgery can have on a woman’s life. This is especially evident in her work with mastopexies and abdominoplasties.
For mastopexies, we appreciate her meticulous attention to detail. She carefully assesses breast tissue, skin elasticity, and body proportions to deliver natural-looking results that boost confidence while maintaining individuality.
She applies the same care to abdominoplasties. She considers factors like body composition and fitness level.
Several patients have shared how honest she is about what’s realistic, helping them set achievable expectations.
We also love her continued warmth and empathy after surgery. Her post-operative support and ongoing follow-ups show she truly cares about her patients’ well-being beyond the procedure itself.
That said, scheduling a consultation with her can be a bit challenging. Responses via her online form can take some time, which may require a little patience.
An experienced surgeon with a great bedside manner
“Dr Macadam is a wonderful surgeon with great bedside manner. I couldn’t be happier with the results of my surgery. Her staff is friendly and helpful.”

Dr. Sheina Macadam is the nicest, most genuine doctor out there – she made me feel so comfortable and at ease during the entire process. She gave me realistic goals with the sizing and I couldn’t be happier with my results! I’ve received so many compliments since my surgery! I’m giving her a five star rating and highly recommend going to see her. Best surgeon in all of Vancouver! Also, her receptionist Michelle is amazing too!”

5. Dr. Alexander Anzarut – Plastic Surgery Vancouver
Address: 1111 W Georgia St #1788-B
Contact Details: +1 604-620-3223
Operating Hours: Monday to Saturday – 9 AM to 5 PM
What we love most about Dr. Anzarut is his focus on subtle enhancements. Instead of overly dramatic results, he helps patients look like the best, most refreshed version of themselves.
Many patients raved about how their facelifts gave them a “better version” of their own features, which is exactly what they want.
Dr. Anzarut’s expertise goes beyond facelifts. He also specializes in eyelid lifts, otoplasty, and more extensive procedures like arm and thigh lifts.
Beyond his surgical skills, we appreciate how thorough his consultations are. Dr. Anzarut takes the time to truly listen to his patients’ concerns, answer all their questions, and set realistic expectations.
The support throughout the entire surgical journey is exceptional as well. Patients said Dr. Anzarut remained accessible and attentive both before and after surgery, providing peace of mind.
The only downside we’ve heard is that the wait times for appointments can be a bit long, which can be frustrating for some.
friendly and comforting staff
“Absolutely amazing experience. I was quite nervous but all of the staff were extremely friendly and comforting. Would most definitely recommend Dr Anzarut and I have to a few friends already. Thank you so very much for making this girl finally feel like a woman.”
