Breast Enhancement and Shaping procedures require expertise and good judgment by your surgeon.

Breast augmentation is a very delicate operation just like many in plastic surgery.

Right now it is a buyer-be-ware market in plastic surgery.  There are many discount clinics and sometimes the surgeon’s judgment may not be at its best in these situations.  Patients need to research their surgeon very carefully and ask a lot of questions.  Your surgeon should be truthful about your specific breast and body type and what size and shape implant is BEST for you.   Time needs to be taken during your plastic surgery consultation to explain all your options to you.

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 variousethnicities in Los Angeles, this is even more important. This makes the operation of nose jobs even more challenging, yet always fun and exciting.

For a recent Elle UK interview, Demi Moore addressed her beauty obsessions and compulsiveness to maintain her beauty as she ages.   have long been frequent fliers when it comes to plastic surgery.  However, is it really that important for us to know their “secrets”.  I have to say, that when I found out that John Wayne had eyelid rejuvenation and perhaps a facelift, and Marilyn Monroe had chin augmentation, I wish I hadn’t. There are countless celebrities that have had cosmetic surgical enhancements.  I can say that it is perhaps the minority that do not at least get some form of fillers or Botox, chemical peels or lasering.  However, Demi Moore has always been a “true beauty.”  Whether she did or did not have plastic surgery, she is still a “true beauty.”  If someone goes and gets their hair straightened or hair dyed, does this mean they are not a real beauty?

Dr. Ghavami performs ethnic rhinoplasty on a direct descendant of the Qajar Persian royal dynasty. Dr. Ghavami has written textbook chapters and professional essays on the difference between ‘ethnic’ rhinoplasties and the ‘regular’ nose job, and is considered an expert in the field.

Dr. Ashkan Ghavami will be serving as faculty for the 27th Annual Dallas Rhinoplasty Symposium. Surgeons from all around the world visit Dallas every March to learn the latest in nose surgery concepts and techniques. This starts with an anatomy lab where surgeons are taught how to do open rhinoplasty and shape the nose and nasal tip. This is followed by two and a half days of lectures and videos on rhinoplasty techniques. The fact that this is one of the most highly attended meetings on nose surgery even after 27 years, shows how challenging and specialized nose surgery is. It is important that your surgeon understands the art and science of natural rhinoplasty.

Ashkan Ghavami, MD, a board certified plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills, CA will be discussing an interesting patient story which requires breast augmentation, breast implants, and a breast lift. This patient has survived a devastating gunshot wound to the breast while she had her breast implant still in. The impact of the bullet fragments may have been slowed down by the implant! Had the breast implant not been in her body, she may not have survived because the bullet could have gone deeper into the heart and/or lungs! Dr. Ghavami plans to do the reconstruction with a pro bono surgeon’s fee (gratis) and implants generously donated by the Mentor Corp. Lifecell will be donating the Strattice which is a sheet of engineered tissue designed to hammock breast implants and to camouflage holes and contour deformities. This is a remarkable story of survival and plastic surgery. To read more, please visit our media page.
