In his career, world-renowned plastic surgeon Dr. Ashkan Ghavami has been called upon to perform many plastic surgery procedures on high-profile patients, including TV and movie stars and foreign dignitaries. Though Dr. Ghavami applies the same careful and precise surgical methods to each of his patients, it can be argued that these high-profile patients require a bit more in terms of discretion when they are trusting Dr. Ghavami with their care.  As a result of their public profile, this improves their safety and security so that their care is not distracted from. That is why Dr. Ghavami has put in place the following privacy features for these patients, who often wish to come and go from his practice with ease and without fanfare.

The benefits of Dr. Ghavami’s innovative Flash Recovery® Breast Augmentation procedure are undeniable. Not only is the surgery typically performed in less than 30 minutes using less invasive surgical techniques, but the recovery period involves minimal discomfort — and the recovery time is shortened from days to just hours!

Plastic Surgeons in the field of blepharoplasty (plastic surgery on the eyes) are always looking for innovative ways to provide safer and more aesthetically pleasing results for their patients. In the past, some traditional methods have left patients with a hollowed out appearance that gives their eyes a prematurely aged look and distorts their facial features. Dr. Ashkan Ghavami, also known for quick recovery breast augmentation, buttock shaping with fat transfer, and rhinoplasty in Beverly Hills, has conducted research in the area of periorbital (eye region) rejuvenation while receiving prestigious society awards for these advances. At his sought after Beverly Hills plastic surgery clinic, he offers a comprehensive five-step procedure for improved lower eyelid surgery that addresses all aspects of eyelid aging.  This technique was recently published with colleagues in the PRS journal and developed by the lead author of the study, Dr. Rod J Rohrich.

This Sunday, Bravo’s Shahs of Sunset returns with its usual opulence and controversies.  Reza Farahan, one of the most prolific stars of “Shahs” is more camera ready than ever, with the help of Tehrangeles’ own, Board Certified Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Ashkan Ghavami. 

At the heart of effective plastic surgery is an unswerving commitment to harmony. Cosmetic enhancements, whether they are performed on the face or buttocks, only look natural when they are blended seamlessly with the surrounding landscape of your body. Rhinoplasty (a nose job) and buttock augmentation can both bear that stigmatized “done” appearance when a plastic surgeon tries to emulate a certain popular look rather than tailor his alterations to the particular features of his patient. Let’s first consider rhinoplasty for a moment. This is perhaps the most delicate and complex cosmetic procedure, and if the surgeon limits himself to a universal standard of beauty (most often defined by Northern European facial traits), the result can be “racial incongruity”. You can’t just slap some generalized idea of the perfect “Caucasian nose” onto a person of Middle-Eastern, African, Asian, or Hispanic heritage. It simply won’t look natural. This is why Dr. Ashkan Ghavami, a board certified Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, places such a premium on “ethno-sensitive” rhinoplasty. He takes into consideration the patient’s individual characteristics, as well as commonalities in facial and nasal structure found within groups of people with certain ancestries. That tailored approach to rhinoplasty is essential to achieving a natural, harmonious look.

At the  30th Hawaii Plastic Surgery Symposium (Jan. 28-30), Dr. Ashkan Ghavami will be sharing his insights on a variety of procedures, including lower eyelid blepharoplasty, ethnic rhinoplasty, and fat transfer to the buttocks. His remarks on lower eyelid rejuvenation will touch on the five-step approach he employs, which includes selective release of the orbicularis retaining ligament and filling the deep malar fat compartment.

In Beverly Hills, I see noses of all ethnic origins.  These range from Persian (Iranian Rhinoplasty), Hispanic, and African-American to Israeli, Arab, and Asian.  Rhinoplasty is in and of itself a unique operation. Every nose should be tailored for only that person. No two people should have the same nasal shaping performed.  With the various ethnicities in Los Angeles, this is even more important. This makes the operation of nose jobs even more challenging, yet always fun and exciting. 

For women who want to achieve a more attractive breast shape and size, without the typical pain and drawn-out recovery, there may be a solution in what is coined the Flash Recovery Breast Augmentation® with Dr. Ghavami. The tenets are based on the incredible and innovative research in quick or rapid recovery breast augmentation first published by Dr. John Tebbetts. Dr. Ghavami (who studied under Dr. Tebbetts) is proud to be able to utilize these concepts to reduce the recovery time and pain of breast surgery for his Los Angeles patient population.
