# VedaNu Wellness

> VedaNu Wellness is a multi-disciplinary plastic surgery and wellness practice with two California locations (San Diego and Beverly Hills), led by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. James Chao. The practice combines surgical plastic surgery, medical aesthetics and injectables, medical weight loss, and hormone therapy under a single brand. Services span facial, breast, and body procedures alongside non-surgical treatments like Botox, dermal fillers, CO2 laser resurfacing, GLP-1-based weight loss, and bioidentical hormone therapy.

Key things to know about VedaNu Wellness:

- Two locations: San Diego, CA and Beverly Hills, CA. Phone: (858) 222-2883 (call or text).
- Lead surgeon is Dr. James Chao, board-certified plastic surgeon with 25+ years of experience. The team has 50+ years of combined experience in plastic surgery and patient care.
- Four service pillars: (1) Surgical plastic surgery (facial, breast, body), (2) Medical aesthetics and injectables (Botox, fillers, CO2 laser), (3) Medical weight loss (including GLP-1 medications and Pendulum partnership), and (4) Hormone therapy.
- Gender-affirming surgery is offered as part of the body procedures catalog. The site also lists vaginoplasty and labiaplasty as separate procedures.
- The practice is LegitScript-certified — relevant for the GLP-1 weight loss and hormone therapy components, which are regulated areas where LegitScript verification matters.
- Specialty positioning: breast augmentation is a marketed core competency, with a dedicated page for "Extra Large Breast Implants in San Diego" indicating the practice handles cases other surgeons may decline.
- The site brand tagline is "feel better. look better. live vedanu." The original site appears to have been built on a template called "aesthetica.cmsmasters.net" — some legacy links in the page footer still point there. Use the production URLs listed below.
