Miami Plastic Surgery

Who is behind the practice filed here as Miami Plastic Surgery, and what can a patient actually book? The website this entry points to belongs to Dr. Alexander Zuriarrain, a quadruple board-certified plastic surgeon who goes by "Dr. Z" and holds an assistant professor post at Larkin Hospital's Department of Surgery and the FIU College of Medicine. That teaching role is worth pausing on, because a surgeon who trains other doctors is being held to a standard beyond his own operating room. Miami Plastic Surgery runs out of South Miami and reads as a single-surgeon operation, which is the kind of setup where you know whose hands you are in.

Dr. Zuriarrain and his practice

The surgical menu at Miami Plastic Surgery is broad and it stays inside the specialty rather than drifting into unrelated services. Face work covers facelifts, blepharoplasty, brow and neck lifts, lip lifts, chin implants and ear surgery. Breast procedures run through augmentation, lifts, reductions, revisions, nipple correction and gynecomastia surgery for men. Body work includes liposuction, tummy tucks, Brazilian butt lifts, thigh and arm lifts, general body contouring, and mommy makeovers that bundle several of those together. It is a full plastic-surgery practice, and the range tracks with a surgeon who does this all day.

Surgical procedures offered

Not everything requires an operating table. The non-surgical side lists Botox, dermal and lip fillers, microneedling, Morpheus8, Lumecca IPL, PRP and B12 shots, plus a medical weight loss program and post-operative recovery support such as tissue sealants and incision therapy. I find the recovery-support detail more telling than any of the headline procedures, because it points to a practice that thinks past the day of surgery. There is also a fly-in program built for out-of-town and international patients, and consultations can happen either in person or virtually, so someone weighing a long trip can start with a screen call instead.

Non-surgical treatments and patient support

Here the picture is solid but modest in volume. The practice, listed elsewhere under its own name Zuri Plastic Surgery, carries a Yelp page for the South Miami location with around fifteen reviews and a set of patient photos. The Better Business Bureau keeps a profile under Zuri Plastic Surgery LLC that tracks customer reviews and complaints, which is a useful second lens because the BBB records complaint history and responses, a different angle than a star average. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons also hosts a profile for Dr. Zuriarrain that includes quoted patient testimonials, one of them pulled from RealSelf.

Reviews and professional credentials

Fifteen Yelp reviews is not a mountain of feedback, and anyone comparing surgeons should read that number for what it is. The counterweight is the professional footprint: board certification, a hospital appointment, a teaching role and an ASPS listing are harder credentials to assemble than a pile of five-star ratings, and they are the sort of thing a prospective patient can verify independently. If I were choosing a surgeon on this evidence, the review count would send me to read every one of those fifteen closely rather than skim an average.

Comparing feedback sources

One caution belongs on the record, and it has nothing to do with the surgeon's work. Several unrelated practices around Miami operate under the generic name Miami Plastic Surgery, including one with hundreds of reviews at a different address and another on a separate Yelp page entirely. Those are different businesses, and their ratings do not belong to this one. Anyone who lands on Miami Plastic Surgery through this entry should confirm they are looking at Dr. Zuriarrain's site at the South Miami address before reading any reviews as his, because the name overlap makes cross-wiring easy.

Verify the correct Miami location

Reaching the practice is refreshingly direct. A phone number, a street address in South Miami and business hours all sit on the site, with an online consultation booking tool a click away, unlike some entries in a business directory where the contact trail runs cold after a bare listing. There is no hunting through submenus to find how to reach the office, and the ability to start with a virtual consult lowers the stakes for a first inquiry. People often put off making that first call in this field, and an easy path in counts for something.

So where does this leave the entry? Miami Plastic Surgery, as the label sits over Dr. Zuriarrain's practice, presents a credible single-surgeon cosmetic operation with strong professional credentials, a wide but focused procedure list, and thoughtful extras like the fly-in program and structured recovery care. The soft spot is fifteen public reviews and a confusing shared name, neither of which reflects on the surgery itself but both of which put more weight on a patient's own homework. On paper the practice looks capable; the remaining work is sitting across from Dr. Z, asking the awkward questions about a specific case, and deciding from there.
