Pacific Plastic Surgery Group

What Pacific Plastic Surgery Group does

Pacific Plastic Surgery Group is a multi-physician cosmetic and reconstructive surgery practice based in San Francisco, operating under the California professional corporation Sheldon S. Kabaker, M.D., Inc., and trading under the DBA "Aesthetic Facial Plastic Surgery Medical Clinic" at its Oakland location. Founded in 2007, the practice employs 11-50 staff and serves patients primarily from the San Francisco Bay Area, with a formalized out-of-town program extending to Sacramento, Monterey, Fresno, and international patients. The surgical team comprises founder Dr. Sheldon S. Kabaker (the only Fellow of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery in the SF Bay Area, ABFPRS board-certified and FACS-designated), Dr. Edward Miranda, and Dr. Jason Dudas. Two physical locations are operated: a primary surgical clinic at 77 Van Ness Avenue, San Francisco, and an administrative office at 3324 Webster Street, Oakland.

The practice's core offerings span three categories. Facial surgical procedures include facelifts (full and mini-lift variants), rhinoplasty and revision rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, brow lifts, midface lifts, neck lifts, otoplasty, facial implants, lip enhancement, and scar repair. Hair restoration includes follicular unit grafting (using the NeoGraft automated FUE system), hairline lowering (including Asian forehead reduction and ethnic hair variants), scalp reductions and expansions, Juri hair flaps, eyebrow and mustache transplants, and repair of prior hair plug cases. Non-surgical aesthetic treatments include Botox Cosmetic, injectable fillers (Juvederm, Restylane, Radiesse, Belotero), chemical resurfacing, CoolSculpting, Ultherapy, and Latisse. The practice also dispenses Propecia (finasteride 1mg) prescriptions in-house in 90-pill "Pro Pak" units and offers CareCredit financing with terms from 6 to 60 months. Underlying technology is predominantly surgical craft rather than software: proprietary surgical planning around follicular unit grafting, trichophytic incision technique, and tissue expansion, supplemented by procured devices from NeoGraft, Allergan, Merz, SkinMedica, and CoolSculpting/Ultherapy. Certifications include HIPAA compliance for Protected Health Information handling and GDPR-compliant privacy practices.

Revenue is generated primarily through one-time surgical fees for elective cosmetic procedures, professional service fees for non-surgical aesthetic treatments, in-office prescription sales, with patient purchasing power extended via CareCredit financing. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market motion is sales-led but reputation-driven: surgeon credentials (FISHRS, ABFPRS, FACS), before-and-after photo galleries (55+ hairline lowering cases and 66 facelift cases documented), RealSelf profile (4.9-star rating across 30-36 reviews), Oakland Magazine recognition, and detailed SEO-optimized procedural content pages drive organic search acquisition and conversion. Distribution is exclusively direct via in-person consultations at the SF and Oakland locations.
