Dr. Thomas Chung
San Diego
After training, Dr. Chung served in the U.S. Navy as a plastic and reconstructive surgeon and had the honor and privilege of performing reconstructive care on countless casualties returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. He also participated in numerous global humanitarian missions in underserved countries aboard the U.S. Navy hospital ships. For Dr. Chung, it has truly been a joy to see all the precious smiles around the world of those he had the opportunity to care for.
Dr. Chung became a plastic surgeon because he saw how much one can really make a difference in a patient's life. In just hours, a person can be completely transformed and have a surgical result that gives them more confidence in how they look and feel about themselves.
Dr. Chung's approach and goal at AirSculpt are very simple. He wants every patient not only to have an amazing result but to have a very comfortable experience getting there. Because it is an awake procedure, he strives to make it as comfortable as possible, using a combination of the medications taken by mouth, the laughing gas, and the numbing solution put under the skin. Dr. Chung constantly assesses his patients' pain levels because he truly cares about your comfort, not just your results. As far as results are concerned, his goal and passion is to help achieve an amazing shape on your body while enhancing the natural look, using the safest and most innovative surgical options available.
