The ever-increasing popularity of plastic surgery can largely be attributed to the diverse range of procedures available. Everything from fat grafting to complex reconstruction/enhancement or revision surgery is performed by plastic surgeons that must use both aesthetic judgment and extensive surgical training to better an individual’s appearance and function. Over time, Beverly Hills has become a popular location for plastic surgery, with countless surgeons operating on a diverse patient population. Amid the sea of plastic surgeons is Dr. Ghavami, a plastic surgeon who has strived to provide his patients with honest and educational consultations and surgical care. He has been chosen as an expert commentator for numerous media outlets and publications. His media appearances include The Tyra Show, The Doctors, Extra, Inside Edition, Fox News, Discovery Channel, Telemundo, CBS News, and KTLA. More important than media appearances, however, are Dr. Ghavami’s peer-reviewed scientific publications. While media and web marketing are a necessary entity of today’s plastic surgery practices, it is up to the patient to carefully evaluate all aspects of their surgeon’s qualifications to determine if they have chosen the right surgeon for them.

Through an unyielding desire to give his patients results that look natural, Dr. Ghavami has become a sought out plastic surgeon in Los Angeles. His honesty and high standards place Dr. Ghavami as one of the plastic surgeons in Beverly Hills that you can trust. He does not believe in a “cookie cutter” approach, does not take short cuts, and is always looking to advance his techniques. If Dr. Ghavami believes that a patient’s desired results are unhealthy or unrealistic, no amount of money will persuade operation. These ethical values go a long way in the plastic surgery profession and ultimately lead to more satisfied patients and improved outcomes.

Our primary goal at Ghavami Plastic Surgery, along with each patient safety, is to produce results that yield mutual satisfaction between Dr. Ghavami and his patients. We suggest viewing the patient picture gallery to get an idea of the high caliber results brought on by Dr. Ghavami’s aesthetic procedures. No matter what your age or ethnicity, Dr. Ghavami will strive to provide you with the quality of care you desire and deserve.

In addition to the artistry of plastic surgery, Dr. Ghavami is an avid guitar player, sculptor, artist, and creative writer.
