Dr. Koo is passionate about making people look and feel the best they can no matter what their age. "I believe in tailoring treatments to enhance the individual and putting patients in balance and harmony aesthetically," she says. "I spend a great deal of time communicating with my patients. My love and desire is to deliver what it is that patients really want."
Her patient-centered aesthetic surgery practice, the Aesthetic Surgery Institute, takes the time to identify the problem areas in order to develop the optimal treatment plan. "One of the most important things I've learned is that there's not one surgery for everybody," says Dr. Koo. "I pay attention to the details of the anatomy, extract exactly what the patient wants, then with my expertise and vision I apply delicate surgical principles to get the job done.
Attracting patients from New York, Los Angeles and Chicago, her artistic expertise and meticulous attention to detail, as well as a deep-seated understanding of each patient's expectations, lead to aesthetic satisfaction. She has developed a style and grace that appeals not only to media professionals but also to those individuals with lofty expectations. Dr. Koo adds that her goal with any cosmetic or reconstructive procedure "whether liposuction, tummy tuck, facelift, eyelift, breast augmentation or collagen injection" is to put patients into the right proportion for their face and bodies. "Balance is the operative word whether it is one's face, body or breasts," says Dr. Koo. "Cosmetic reconstruction should yield a unique, unparalleled outcome while enhancing your life both physically and spiritually."
