LiftMX Medical Aesthetics

LiftMX Medical Aesthetics, operating under the FlowMD clinic brand, is part of an Asian-focused medical aesthetics practice serving the San Francisco Bay Area, with a location in Foster City alongside a sister clinic in Sunnyvale and an affiliated surgical center, Ran Plastic Surgery, in Los Angeles. Founded by board-certified physician Dr. Cong Ivy Ran, the practice is built on the philosophy that medical aesthetics is a normal, integrated part of wellness and self-care — an approach common throughout Asia — and applies that sensibility to treatments tailored specifically for Asian and Asian-American skin types and facial structures. The clinical team includes nurse practitioners Jean and Helen, registered nurses Tina, Janice, Sunny, and Wendy, and aestheticians Chiho and Vivian, all working under Dr. Ran's direction to deliver customized, FDA-cleared care without aggressive upselling. The nonsurgical menu features advanced energy-based devices such as Thermage FLX, Ultherapy, PicoSure Pro, Sciton BBL, Morpheus8, and the M22, along with gold microneedling and injectable treatments including Botox and hyaluronic acid fillers, while the broader network also offers surgical procedures like blepharoplasty and rhinoplasty. Patients consistently note the clinic's thorough, detail-oriented consultations.
