Dr. Usha Rajagopal, MD

General Practitioners

Medical Weight Loss
You may seek your perfect pair for many reasons: from adding symmetry to your cups, to restoring shape after weight loss, to increasing volume for a balanced look. Breast enhancement can transform the way you dress and improve your self-confidence. Under Dr. Usha Rajagopal’s experienced hand, it’s the right time to consider your own procedure.
Urinary Incontinence
We’re kicking off our podcast with the first part of our V-Suite Series, where we discuss all things vaginal rejuvenation. Today we will be discussing the Emsella for urinary incontinence.

Ophthalmologists

Laser Eye Surgery
I did not want to look like I’d had anything done. This year my sagging jowls and neck were really bothering me and I discussed it with Dr. Rajagopal—she suggested a half-face lift and lower eye surgery. I made the appointment when I knew I could take 3-4 days off. I have 3 children and my mother was there to help. I went in feeling a little nervous, but had such faith in Dr. Rajagopal that I knew I was in good hands. I did not have general anesthesia, but didn’t’ feel a thing. I was groggy when I woke up, but didn’t feel any pain or anxiety. I left the office with a friend and rested for 3 days as per doctor’s orders.

Gynecology
The most important aspect to picking a surgeon is the amount of experience. The surgeon should have a great deal of experience with the procedure and you should be able to see before and after pictures of previous patients. During the consultation, the patient and the surgeon should discuss what can be achieved and what to expect after the surgery.
Pregnancy
Labor and Delivery
Alyssa is a Registered Nurse specializing in aesthetics in the Bay Area. She graduated from the University of San Francisco with honors, obtaining her Bachelor’s in Science of Nursing. With a background in Labor & Delivery, Alyssa’s experience in both bedside and medical spas has allowed her to deliver the best quality patient care and results to each and every client, with the utmost attention to detail.

Anxiety

MRI
Emsella is a treatment that has high intensity electromagnetic energy. It works on energy that’s similar to the MRI and it really stimulates and strengthens the entire pelvic floor. When a woman does kegels, that's the muscle she’s engaging. That muscle gets stretched out when you have kids and can get weaker when you age. When you have an orgasm those are the muscles that tighten and go into spasm. The Emsella targets the pelvic floor and makes those muscles stronger, thicker, and have more nerve endings.

General Surgery
Hip Replacement
The Emsculpt is a great treatment for different kinds of people. Obviously, it’s ideal for a young, athletic person who is interested in gaining muscle definition. Emsculpt is also used to improve function of the body. When someone has diastasis recti it will bring that in together and provide more core strength. I have some patients with chronic back pain who come in for their Emsculpt. These patients with back issues just want to improve their core strength. When you strengthen your core, your abdominal, rectus, and oblique muscles, you will notice that you have less back pain. Lastly, I have patients who have issues with either their lower back or hip. Strengthening your buttock muscles can help with these issues. We have patients who have very functional issues that have been treated by the Emsculpt. I have a patient who had a hip replacement last year, but felt like she wasn't her optimal self. We ended up doing the Emsculpt treating both on the abdominal and buttocks. I was so surprised at her last visit to the office. She looked like a new person. She appeared to be at least 20 years younger. The first time I saw her she came in hunched back walking with a cane. And now she walks in full of life and energy, plus she’s taking salsa dance classes! It really can change someone’s life especially with these functional issues.

Plastic Surgeons

Botox
She's the sweetest woman and will not steer you wrong. I've also gotten Botox and CoolSculpting sessions from them and am very pleased with my results. I will continue going here for future cosmetic services.
Brow Lift
Eyelid Surgery
If you believe that your eyes are making you look tired, sad, or older than you really feel, cosmetic eyelid surgery may be the right choice for you. Eyelid surgery can remove the excess fat and drooping skin of the upper eyelids, minimize bags under the eyes and tighten the lower eyelid skin, resulting in a more refreshed and rejuvenated look.
Liposuction
The length of time you should wait to swim after liposuction may vary from patient to patient, but in general, you can swim in three weeks or when your wounds are completely healed. It is important that you do not soak in a bath, swimming pool, Jacuzzi, etc for at least 7 days after surgery in order to minimize the risk of infection.
Breast Augmentation
Board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Rajagopal is the breast implant and female rejuvenation specialist in the Bay Area. If you’ve wanted curvier breasts and a more feminine figure, come learn about breast augmentation with Dr. Rajagopal and her team.
Breast Reduction
Went in for eyelid surgery about ten years ago and then for breast reduction and lift about three years ago...
Breast Lift
When is it time to consider breast enlargement surgery or a breast lift procedure for yourself? There are physical, practical and personal considerations to make. A few reasons you may seek enhancement are to...
Rhinoplasty
What I am going to be talking about is the non-surgical rhinoplasty. I’ve seen some Instagram reports and read some articles of things that could go devastatingly wrong with fillers and non surgical rhinoplasty in particular, and also fillers in any part of the face. Several things to remember is: the face has a ton of blood vessels (arteries, veins, etc) that could not be visualized through the skin. You have to know your anatomy for a lot of the arteries. Sometimes you could have a detour and not even know.
Plastic Surgery
Dr. Rajagopal empowers patients by helping them select the right procedures for their unique vision and body type. Our highly-trained, supportive staff is sensitive to the comfort and privacy of each patient. We strive to provide our patients natural and lasting results with unparalleled attention to detail. We are an all-women medical staff multilingual in English, Spanish, Cantonese, Hindi, Tamil, French, and Tagalog.

Check out our Pricing and Financing page for more information.
Face Lift
Does your face show signs of aging, such as deep lines, creases, and folds? Do you feel as though your demeanor appears tired and your skin takes away from the natural beauty of your face? If your features aren't representing your inner youth, a face lift (rhytidectomy) procedure may be the procedure to revitalize your life.
Blepharoplasty
Dr. Rajagopal may decide that the best approach for removing fat from the lower eyelid is with a transconjunctival blepharoplasty. In this procedure, an incision is placed inside the lower eyelid. This technique requires no external incision, but it cannot be used to remove excess skin.
Abdominoplasty
It depends on whether it’s a surgical day or non-surgical day. On a surgical day, I’m usually in the operating room from morning to end of day doing procedures. Today I had two surgeries. One was a breast augmentation where we used slightly different sized implants on this young woman because her breast size were pre-operatively different in volume. The second was an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) procedure on a patient who had a really great figure but lost some of that tightness of the abdomen from having had children. After the two surgeries, I will do finish up some paperwork in the office.

Gynecomastia
Cosmetic Surgery
“ With the growing popularity of cosmetic surgery, it is now more important than ever to have the utmost confidence in your plastic surgeon. At a minimum, you should be sure to research the doctor’s qualifications and be aware of “look-alike” board-certifications: only the American Society of Plastic Surgeons represents the highest degree of professional certification.
Dermabrasion
She also made it clear that ONE dermabrasion scraping session will NOT completely get rid of the scars but will improve the appearance drastically. I asked her if it would be possible to do Subcision for the deeper scars combined with Dermabrasion and she said yes.
Chin Augmentation
Non-Surgical Chin Augmentation, also done with the same injectable procedure, can add to a balanced facial profile and reduce the appearance of the size of the nose.

Cosmetic Dermatology
Dr. Usha Rajagopal also provides the latest in cutting edge cosmetic dermatology procedures, specialized medical skin services and state-of-the-art laser treatments.

Acne Treatment
Chemical Peels
ZO Pigment Control Creme that I’ve been using approximately once a year for three months. A great time to use it is in the fall or winter. Office treatments such as microdermabrasion or very mild chemical peels are very important. As your skin gets darker it becomes more sensitive to treatments so you have to be careful when doing laser or deep chemical treatments. Your skin can hyperpigment as a response so it’s important to go to a provider who is used to skin of color and ethnic skin.
Skin Care
Microdermabrasion
I went in for a consultation for very deep ice pick and rolling acne scars. I did my research beforehand and decided that Subcision would probably be my best route to achieve the results i desired. Dr. Rajagopal listened to my needs and concerns. She gave me several options from lasers that would need several treatments with little to no downtime, to dermabrasion that would need a 7-10 day recovery. I told her that I wanted the most bang for my buck, meaning I didn't care about recovery as long as I get the results and at the cheapest cost. She then recommended Dermabrasion. Let's also not confuse this procedure with microdermabrasion. Dermabrasion is more invasive.
