Privacy policy and cookie choices
How this website handles what you share with us, which cookies it uses, and how to change your choices. Last updated November 7, 2026.
Who runs this website
thebreastimplantguy.com is the website of T. Y. Steven Ip, MD, a board certified plastic surgeon with offices in Newport Beach, Beverly Hills and New York. In this policy, "we" and "us" mean Dr. Ip's practice.
The site is built and hosted on Ploy, a website platform, and delivered through Cloudflare, which protects it from attacks and bots.
What you share in our forms
Our consultation request form asks for your name, email address, phone number and a message about the consultation you would like. You choose what to write in the message, so please leave out anything you do not want to send over a web form.
When you send the form, Ploy stores your request and emails it to our office so we can contact you. We use these details to answer your request and arrange your consultation.
Cookies and similar storage
Essential cookies are always on because the site needs them to stay secure and remember your choice. Analytics and Marketing stay off until you turn them on. We do not use any marketing or advertising tags right now; if we add one, it will load only after you allow Marketing and we will list it here.

Videos on this site from YouTube and Wistia load only when you press play. YouTube videos use its privacy-enhanced mode on youtube-nocookie.com, and Wistia videos are set not to track viewers. Once playing, each player follows its provider's own privacy policy.
Some cookies are set by other companies on their own domains. We cannot delete those for you when you reject or withdraw consent, but you can clear them in your browser settings at any time.
How tracking works here
Before you make a choice
Until you choose, no analytics or marketing cookies are set and Google Analytics does not load at all. Ploy counts page visits without cookies, using an anonymous ID that resets every day, and it does not store your IP address.
Closing the banner with the X or the Escape key does not count as a choice. Everything stays off, and we ask again on your next visit.
If you allow Analytics
We load Google Analytics 4 directly with Google signals turned off and ad personalization signals turned off, so your visit is not linked to Google accounts or used for advertising. We use it to see which pages visitors find useful. Ploy also starts using its visitor ID cookie to count returning visits.
Global Privacy Control
If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as "Reject all". Analytics and Marketing stay off and cannot be turned on while the signal is on, and the banner tells you so.
If you accepted tracking before and later turn on Global Privacy Control, we delete this site's analytics and marketing cookies and storage on your next visit and record that the signal was honored.
Change or withdraw your consent
You can change your choice at any time with the Cookie preferences button below or at the bottom of every page. When you turn off a category you had allowed, we delete this site's Google Analytics, advertising and Ploy visitor cookies and browser storage, then reload the page so nothing keeps running.
