Advanced Surgical Training & Credentials
Dr. Kassabian completed more than nine years of advanced medical and surgical training, including three surgical fellowships. His training included experience with internationally respected plastic surgeons Dr. Thomas Baker, Dr. Steven Stuzin, and Dr. Bruce Connell, whose work helped shape modern facial rejuvenation and facelift surgery.
Rather than relying on a single technique, Dr. Kassabian evaluates each patient’s facial anatomy, proportions, skin quality, tissue changes, previous treatments, and personal goals to determine the most appropriate surgical approach. His philosophy extends beyond labels such as deep plane or SMAS facelift—the technique is selected for the patient, not the other way around.
