BEVERLY HILLS PLASTIC SURGEON
Garo Kassabian, MD, FACS
Plastic Surgery Designed Around the Individual.
Garo Kassabian, MD, FACS is an American Board of Plastic Surgery–certified, triple fellowship-trained plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills with more than two decades of experience in aesthetic surgery and facial rejuvenation.
His work focuses on individualized facelift surgery, rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery and comprehensive facial rejuvenation, combining advanced surgical training with an approach designed to preserve each patient’s natural proportions, expression and identity.
FACIAL REJUVENATIONA Focus on the Face.
Facial surgery requires more than technical execution. It requires an understanding of how facial structures relate to one another and how those relationships change over time.
Dr. Kassabian evaluates facial anatomy, tissue position, volume, skin quality and proportion before determining whether the most appropriate treatment is surgical, nonsurgical or a combination of both.
His areas of focus include facelift and neck lift surgery, rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, facial fat transfer and comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
The procedure is selected for the patient—not the patient for the procedure.
BEVERLY HILLS FACELIFT SURGEONAn Individualized Approach to Facelift Surgery.
Dr. Kassabian’s approach to facelift surgery begins with the anatomy of the individual face rather than a single predetermined technique.
Facial aging may involve changes in the deeper supportive tissues, volume, jawline, neck and skin. Depending on the patient, surgical planning may incorporate techniques involving the SMAS, deeper facial planes, neck contouring and facial fat transfer.
The objective is to restore structure and definition while maintaining natural facial movement and recognizable features.
BEVERLY HILLS RHINOPLASTY SURGEONRhinoplasty Designed for the Face, Not a Formula.
Rhinoplasty can change the balance of the entire face, which is why Dr. Kassabian approaches the nose in relationship to the eyes, cheeks, lips, chin and overall facial proportions.
Each rhinoplasty is planned around the patient’s nasal anatomy, goals and, when relevant, functional concerns.
Rather than creating the same aesthetic result on every patient, the goal is to refine shape and proportion while preserving facial identity.
BLEPHAROPLASTY + EYELID REJUVENATIONRefreshed Eyes Without Changing Your Expression.
Dr. Kassabian performs upper and lower blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, for patients experiencing age-related or structural changes around the eyes.
Treatment may address upper-eyelid hooding, excess skin, lower-eyelid bags, fullness or other changes contributing to a tired appearance.
His approach emphasizes preservation of natural eyelid shape and facial expression.
BOARD CERTIFICATION + ADVANCED TRAININGExperience Built on Surgical Training.
Dr. Kassabian is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS).
He completed extensive formal surgical training followed by advanced fellowship training in aesthetic and facial plastic surgery. His career has included clinical practice, research, teaching, lecturing and authorship in aesthetic surgery.

SURGICAL + NONSURGICALKnowing When Surgery Is—and Isn’t—the Answer.
One of Dr. Kassabian’s distinguishing perspectives comes from working across both surgical and nonsurgical facial aesthetics.
Because he evaluates patients for injectables, skin treatments and surgical procedures, the consultation is not limited to one treatment category.
For some patients, conservative nonsurgical treatment may be appropriate. For others, structural aging may be better addressed surgically.
Understanding the capabilities—and limitations—of both allows treatment to be based on what the face actually needs.
AN INDIVIDUALIZED PHILOSOPHYThe Kassabian Method
The Kassabian Method is not one operation or one surgical technique.
It is an individualized approach to aesthetic treatment based on anatomy, proportion, tissue characteristics, aging pattern and the patient’s goals.
Depending on the individual, treatment may incorporate surgical or nonsurgical techniques—or no treatment at all.
The common thread is individualized decision-making rather than a one-size-fits-all aesthetic.
NATURAL RESULTSThe Goal Is Recognition, Not Reinvention.
Patients often seek facial surgery because they want to look more rested or restored—not like a different person.
Dr. Kassabian’s aesthetic emphasizes refined, natural-looking results that preserve recognizable facial character and expression.
Whether the procedure is a facelift, rhinoplasty or eyelid surgery, the objective remains the same:
Improve what has changed without erasing what makes the face individual.
