Rhinoplasty reshapes the nose to improve aesthetics and breathing function. Dr. Vartanian specializes in primary and revision rhinoplasty, using advanced techniques to ensure natural proportions and cultural sensitivity. Patients benefit from personalized consultations and computer simulations to visualize outcomes.
Facelift
Facelift surgery restores youthful contours by addressing sagging skin and tissue laxity. Dr. Vartanian employs deep-plane and mini-facelift techniques for long-lasting, subtle results. The approach preserves natural expression while enhancing jawline and cheek definition without visible scarring.

I've been going to Dr Vartanian for a couple years now for what I like to call a tune up. He always does a fantastic job and knows exactly what to do and it's never too much or too little. I always leave happy until the next time. His staff is also extremely kind, very helpful and consistently have a smile on their faces. Dr Vartanian is fantastic and I highly recommend him for nips and tucks and tune ups! Going into an office with an excellent staff is like icing on the cake!

Dr. John Vartarian is simply the best in his field! A seamlessly excellent experience from the kind and professional front desk to the custom treatment plan Dr. Vartarian prescribed based on listening to my concerns and applying his highly educatIonal background and experience. I couldn't be happier with my Botox, lips and jawline injection results! With his technique he transformed my face in less than an hour with minimal swelling/bruising and no pain! His work is exemplary of the sought-after naturally enhanced "elegant" look. This is undoubtedly my new go-to for beauty treatments

More to my story.....I received a call from Dr. Vartanian's office, apologizing for the miscommunication regarding their consultation fee and for me having to leave their office. They have extended a free consultation and apology. I will take them up on their offer. I have a friend who had very beautiful and natural results from him.

Dr. Vartanian is amazing! I went in looking to get a rhinoplasty to reduce the hump on my nose, reduce the size, and improve breathing, but still keep a natural, masculine shape. He exceeded all expectations! I would definitely recommend this doctor!

I am so pleased with my decision to have had Dr.Vartanian perform my rhinoplasty almost a month ago. This was the best experience and I'm so happy with my results, not only do I look better and feel better but I CAN BREATHE! I was nervous going through this process especially during a pandemic but Dr.Vartanian and his team made everything smooth sailing. I had 0 bruising during my recovery and felt 0 pain. Literally! I didn't even take Tylenol. I am still very swollen which is normal and my nose just looks better day by day. I look forward to my follow up appointments and I recommend
