Dr. Lakin performed my breast augmentation procedure with exemplary precision. He provided expert guidance during the sizing consultation, resulting in an optimal aesthetic outcome that exceeded expectations. My extensive due diligence, which included consultations with numerous local professionals, underscored his superior qualifications and profound expertise in the field. Dr. Lakin consistently demonstrated a meticulous attention to detail and a high degree of patient care throughout the process. The surgical results are demonstrably excellent. I unequivocally recommend Dr. Lakin for his exceptional surgical skill and professional demeanor.

I can not express how fabulous Dr. Lakin is. Being in my late 50’s, post breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, and then losing 40+pounds my breasts were two empty sacks hanging down my front. I didn’t feel attractive anymore and I was embarrassed to be naked in front of my husband. I finally decided to look into a breast lift. Having lived in Los Angeles for 50 years I started looking for doctors there. Then as a fluke I found Dr Lakin’s site. I met with four doctors and after meeting Dr. Lakin and learning about all of his education and training, I felt he was the right doctor. I can’t believe how amazing the entire process has been. Dr. Lakin is a perfectionist and I now have the most beautiful lifted and natural looking augmented breasts I have ever seen! I smile everyday seeing my amazing breasts. Thank you Dr. Lakin and his amazing team of nurses and staff.

His professionalism, skill, and genuine care made me feel completely comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. The staff is also absolutely amazing, warm, attentive, and supportive from start to finish.

I cannot say enough about my experience with Dr. Lakin and the entire team at Illuum Cosmetic Surgery. From the very first consultation, I felt completely heard and cared for. Dr. Lakin took the time to walk me through every detail of my abdominal silhouette surgery, answered all my questions with honesty, and helped me feel confident in my decision. The day of my procedure, everything was seamless professional, calming, and supportive. The staff went above and beyond to ensure I felt comfortable and reassured. Dr. Lakin’s surgical skill and artistry are truly unmatched. The results exceeded my expectations; my silhouette looks natural, refined, and exactly what I had envisioned. What makes Dr. Lakin exceptional is not only his technical expertise but also his genuine care for his patients. He checked in throughout my recovery, and the follow-up care has been outstanding. I always felt like I was his top priority. This surgery has been life-changing for me physically and emotionally. I feel more confident, comfortable, and empowered in my own skin. If you are considering any cosmetic surgery, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Lakin at Illuum. He is a gifted surgeon with a compassionate approach, and I am forever grateful for what he has done for me.

My daughter recently underwent breast augmentation at this practice, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. From the initial consultation to her recovery, the staff and surgeon were knowledgeable, attentive, and made her feel comfortable every step of the way. The results of her surgery are beautiful and natural-looking, and she could not be happier with the outcome. In addition, while I was there to pick her up, I unexpectedly experienced a medical episode and became dizzy and fell. The staff immediately responded with professionalism and compassion, taking excellent care of me until the ambulance arrived. Their quick action and kindness turned a frightening situation into one where I felt safe and supported. This practice not only delivers exceptional surgical results but also demonstrates a genuine commitment to patient care and well-being. I am truly grateful and highly recommend them.

The best med spa experience I’ve ever had. From scheduling the appointment with the kind, knowledgeable Taylor up front to the actual service of Ellen doing my injections, I’ll never go anywhere else. Ellen answered all of my million questions and made me feel extremely comfortable with my choices. Thank you every one!!

Katie Wells BSN, RN

Nurse Injector

She received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Michigan State University and worked as an operating room nurse at Michigan Medicine for 2 years before transitioning to aesthetics. She
received her certification as a Nurse Injector, and attended further training and certification through Allergan Medical Institute. She absolutely loves being a Nurse Injector and is very passionate about
combining medicine and the creativity and artistry of aesthetics in her practice. It is extremely important to her to remain educated and up to date with the newest and best treatments and injection techniques. Her goal as an Injector is that when you sit in her chair that you feel comfortable, fully educated on your procedure, and confident and happy in your results when we are done. She loves forming connections with her patients and feels truly honored to be a part of your journey to becoming your most confident self, inside and out! She is a great listener and looks forward to creating an individualized plan to meet each of her patient’s unique goals and desires. Some of her favorite treatments include lip filler, Botox, and midface/cheek filler (but there is so much more!). When she is not injecting, you can find her trying new recipes, spending time with family, working out, gardening, or taking a long walk with her dog.
