I’ve spent my career working with beauty in all its forms, across every age, ethnicity, and background. What I’ve learned is that the patients who feel most beautiful after surgery are the ones who already understood something true about themselves before they came in. Surgery didn’t create that. It simply helped them feel it.
This is not the kind of thing most surgeons post. But after years of listening to patients describe what they want, I felt it was time to share something honest — about perception, about diversity, about the dangerous myths that social media and celebrity culture have taught us to believe about beauty.
Plastic surgery is a powerful, transformative, and deeply personal decision. I believe in it completely. I have watched it change lives, restore confidence, and give people the reflection they always felt they deserved.
But the most beautiful results I have ever seen happen when a patient walks in already knowing their worth — and simply wants the outside to match how extraordinary they feel within.
These reflections are drawn from philosophers, poets, and one surgeon who has had the privilege of witnessing beauty in every human form imaginable.
Swipe through and let these words find you where you are.
With care and deep respect for every patient I’ve had the privilege of knowing.

What you are about to read has never been published by a surgeon before.
Not because it couldn’t be written.
Because most aren’t willing to be held to it.
At Shamoun Aesthetics, we have spent a lifetime in pursuit of something this industry rarely demands of itself — the highest possible standard, made public, in writing, with our name on it.
This is The Plastic Surgeon’s Oath. 36 PLEDGES we VOW to uphold. Not marketing language. Not a mission statement drafted by a consultant. Words written by a surgeon who has lived every one of them — in operating rooms across three continents, across four decades, across more than 15,000 procedures.

After 25 years, 15,000 surgeries, and 7,000 revision procedures — I have seen enough to speak plainly.
This series is not about tearing down colleagues. It is about telling you — the patient — what the industry too often will not.
The hype around trendy procedures. The techniques promoted by surgeons who have never mastered the fundamentals. The implants placed in patients who never needed them. The facelifts that change who someone is instead of restoring who they were.
You deserve honesty before you go under the knife.
To my surgical colleagues: these are not personal attacks. They are clinical observations and personal OPINION built on decades of experience, training, and the humility that comes from performing 7,000 revision surgeries on patients who were let down elsewhere. If the truth is uncomfortable, ask yourself why.
To my patients: your identity is not a variable to be optimized. Your face, your body, your natural anatomy — these are assets to be respected, not problems to be solved with the latest technique a surgeon learned at a weekend course.
I am the only plastic surgeon in the United States with six active board certifications. I say that not to impress you — but to tell you that I have spent my entire career learning, not settling. And what I have learned, more than anything, is this:
The best surgery is often the surgery not performed.
The best result is the one that looks like you — only better.
And the best surgeon is the one who knows the difference.
Swipe through. Share what resonates. Ask questions.
This gentleman presented with deep forehead rhytids, festoons, and descended brows, requesting improvement without general anesthesia. He needed to return to work as soon as possible and was a high risk patient due to heavy smoking etc.
Under straight local anesthesia in less than two hours we performed: • Direct forehead lift • Direct brow lift • Upper blepharoplasty • Festoon / malar bag excision
The early pink scar was intentionally placed along resting skin tension lines for optimal long-term concealment. We replaced the two forehead scars with one after excising the two midforehead deep creases.
Notice the more open eyes, elevated brows, smoother lid–cheek transition, and refreshed periorbital architecture.
Sometimes the elegant solution is trading multiple deep wrinkles for one precise scar.
The scar improves over time with proper care. The structure remains.
“Where anatomy guides aesthetics” and thinking out of the box matters!!
No drains, no dressings, no hemostatic net sutures, accentuated eyelid pull for two weeks and soft tissue relaxation several weeks later. 2-3 week recovery.
The goal was never to erase identity, but to preserve it, enhance it and avoid anything extreme.
Her ethnicity, character, and natural beauty remain completely intact — only softer, more rested, and refreshed. No distortion. No exaggerated pull. No obvious signs of surgery. Progression photo age 40 when we removed large facial mole, age 65, day 1 post op, day 7 post op, and 6 months post op. Note the overall change in neck contour and eyelids restoring a balanced youthful contour.
True facial rejuvenation should respect cultural variations and norms, restore harmony without sacrificing individuality. The best results are often the ones that simply look timeless.
Early comparative photographs always help us when assessing patients for aesthetic surgery.
There is no universal “perfect nose.” True rhinoplasty is individualized.
The goal is harmony, refinement, balance, and preservation of identity — not forcing the same narrow “trendy” nose onto every face regardless of anatomy or ethnicity.
The most elegant rhinoplasty results are often the least obvious. When performed properly, people notice the beauty of the face — not the surgery itself.
six day result and a one year result -Middle Eastern rhinoplasty with chin augmentation for facial balance. Some residual swelling may persist up to 18 months.
Not operated Not exaggerated. Not strange.
