By Kelli Luu | 18 Nov, 2025

The Bling Empire star rose from Song Dynasty bloodlines to build a plastic surgery practice trusted by the global elite.

In Beverly Hills, perfection is sought after and in the beauty industry, clients are going to Gabriel Chiu to reach their goals. He’s known worldwide for his appearances on the Netflix series Bling Empire, but in Los Angeles, he’s a booked and busy celebrity plastic surgeon. 

Chiu was born in Hong Kong with an ancestry that traces back to the ancient Song Dynasty. Growing up, his time was spent between Taiwan and the United States. He graduated from Berkeley with a bachelor’s degree in Microbiology and Immunology, then later attended medical school at Western University of Health Sciences, followed by a surgical residency at Detroit Riverview Hospital where he focused on cosmetic surgery. 

He went on to become Chief Resident, General Surgery at Cuyahoga Falls General Hospital in Ohio and two years later, he was the Chief Fellow at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine. 

By the time Dr. Chiu made his way to Beverly Hills, his name already had a reputation. Quickly he became Los Angeles’ star surgeon with his exceptional artistry and precision. Chiu and his wife, fashion entrepreneur Christine Chiu, opened Beverly Hills Plastic Surgery in 2007 which has become a clinic that brings in clients from over 40 different countries. 

Chiu is an expert in facial rejuvenation, body contouring, breast surgery, and other aesthetic procedures. Over his career he has been recognized as a top doctor in multiple national rankings and many famous clients have described his work as “subtle, natural, and elegant”. 

Beyond the operating room, Chiu and his wife have made a name for themselves as philanthropists, making major contributions to children’s hospitals and cultural organizations. During his time on Bling Empire viewers admired Chiu for his grounded, calm demeanor and his devotion to his family, revealing a side of Dr. Chiu that his clients may not see. 

Dr. Gabriel Chiu is a prince by ancestry and a powerhouse by skill and he’s one of Los Angeles’ most sought-after surgeons. He didn’t just inherit a throne, he built his own empire that reaches far past Beverly Hills.
