Statement: Dr. Mark Markarian is a Harvard-trained plastic surgeon who’s considered one of the best cosmetic plastic surgeons in the Boston area. His primary office is in Wellesley, Massachusetts, but he also has satellite offices in Newburyport and Woburn, as well as in Warwick, Rhode Island. He performs all aspects of facial rejuvenation and body surgery but specializes in rhinoplasty (nose surgery), breast enhancement (breast augmentations, breast lifts, and breast reductions), breast revision (breast implant removal, breast implant replacement, and capsular contracture treatment), and tummy tucks (abdominoplasty).

In 16 years of practice, Dr. Markarian has received many honors, including RealSelf Top Doctor. “I’m committed to setting the highest standard of care, and to delivering the best patient education, safety, privacy, comfort, and surgical results,” says Dr. Markarian.

Dr. Markarian grew up overseas and relocated to Los Angeles when he was 10. He fluently speaks Armenian, Arabic, and Greek. His diverse background and personable nature allow him to easily connect with patients.

Educated at premier universities and medical schools, including the University of California, Irvine, Emory University, and Yale University, Dr. Markarian did his internship at Tufts University School of Medicine, a plastic surgery residency at Saint Louis University, and a fellowship in aesthetic plastic surgery at Harvard University.

He is board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, a fellow of the American College of Surgeons, and a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.

RealSelf Q&A with Dr. Mark Markarian

RS: What sets you apart as a plastic surgeon?
MM: I have a lot of personality and energy, which allows me to make a genuine connection with patients. I’m very blessed to do what I do and really appreciate the opportunity I have. I took a circuitous route to get into plastic surgery—I originally wanted to go into pediatrics because I love kids. That energy carries over into the connection I make with patients, one that doesn’t stop once you leave the hospital or office. It’s lifelong and very special.

RS: What inspired you to become a plastic surgeon?
MM: Plastic surgery is the only surgical field where people see the finished product. All surgery makes an immediate impact, but here you’re held to another level of accountability. Millimeters count in a nose. A centimeter counts in a breast. People notice a little swelling or fullness. The meticulous nature of plastic surgery and how much of an impact it makes on someone’s life completely intrigues me.

RS: What’s a consultation with you like?
MM: COVID-19 has revolutionized my practice for the better. I do complimentary 30-minute video consultations at least once before I see patients in the office. I give them individualized attention, go over all the details of the surgery, and answer all their questions. When I see them for a follow-up, we’ve already established a connection.

RS: How would you describe your approach to plastic surgery?
MM: It’s very individualized. Not every breast, nose, or tummy looks the same when I’m done. It’s definitely about what the patient wants and their desired aesthetic outcome. My job is to guide them to something that I feel is realistic and safe, that will actually look good. If I don’t think a procedure is right for a patient, I let them know that too—and that’s something most patients respect and appreciate.

Revision Rhinoplasty -- tip
Mar 3, 2023
Hello and thank you for your question. Although an exam in person is ideal, from your photographs alone it appears that you can benefit from a subtle tip refinement to improve the deviation and crookedness at the tip. The bridge does not appear significantly larger as you alluded.
A septal reset may improve your nasal tip if the septum is contributing to the asymmetry and crookedness. If the lower lateral cartilages are indeed deviated, then further tip modification and soft tissue...
Rhinoplasty after septoplasty turbinate reduction surgery - is a rib cartilage graft
Rhinoplasty
Feb 3, 2023
Hello and thank you for your question. I do agree that an alternate source for cartilage is necessary once you've had a septoplasty and your septal cartilage can no longer be harvested. However, I would much rather utilize a donor/cadaver cartilage graft instead of making an incision along your chest to harvest rib cartilage with a subsequent risk of injury to your lung. I commonly utilize MTF (Musculoskeletal Transplant Foundation) cartilage for all my revision rhinoplasties and/or...
What will happen if I get a DCF rhinoplasty without undergoing dorsal hump reduction?
Rhinoplasty
Feb 3, 2023
Hello and thank you for your question. It is difficult to answer your question without a photograph or an in-person examination. However, if you are considering camouflaging a dorsal hump with augmentation from diced cartilage and temporalis fascia (DCF), you can likely accomplish the same thing with nasal fillers. I don't suggest this as your nose will be augmented overall (made bigger) to camouflage the hump. Moreover, I tend to avoid temporalis fascia harvesting as this may cause...
About how thick do surgeons typically leave a septum when performing a septorhinoplas
Rhinoplasty & Septoplasty
Feb 3, 2023
Hello and thank you for your question. The septum thickness in unchanged during a septoplasty.
A dorsal and caudal component of the cartilage has to be maintained, however, to optimize stability and structure of the nose profile -- this is called an L-strut and should be about 1.5cm wide along the dorsal and caudal aspect of the septum. I am unsure about the bending sensation/pressure you're experiencing as you lean your head to the side -- you may have some residual congestion or sinus...
Rhinoplasty with nostril tuck - Will this help me achieve my goal of a smaller, narro
Rhinoplasty
Feb 3, 2023
Please refer to my previous answer regarding nose narrowing and tip deprojection -- the tip deprojection will improve the nostril appearance as the skin re-drapes around the modified cartilage framework of the tip as it is deprojected. Essentially, the skin envelope contracts around the deprojected tip cartilage, in essence making the nostrils smaller and optimizing symmetry.

For more information on rhinoplasty, please refer to my link below.

Good luck.

Revision Rhinoplasty
Feb 3, 2023
Hello and thank you for your question. Although an exam in person is ideal, from your photograph alone, it appears that you have a subtle prominence along the medial crura of your lower lateral cartilage. This can be readily improved with a revision tip rhinoplasty where the protruding element can be excised and some fairly straightforward adjustments can be made to improve the appearance.
This may potentially also be done under local anesthesia. The modification of your nasal cartilage...

Rhinoplasty
Feb 3, 2023
Hello and thank you for your question. Although an exam in person is ideal, from your photographs alone it appears that you can benefit from a rhinoplasty -- ultrasonic or otherwise. Traditional osteotomies can narrow your nose and would not require an ultrasonic device. While your dorsum does not appear to have a significant hump, I would suggest a tip rhinoplasty where the nasal tip cartilage is modified for a more refined, feminine look as stated in your question. Specifically, I...

Hello and thank you for your question. It is not uncommon for your nose to appear more prominent after weight loss and deflation of your facial volume.

The modification of your nasal cartilage can be done with trimming, stitching or...

Hello and thank you for your question. It is ideal to perform both a rhinoplasty and chin implant at the simultaneously to save time, minimize the general anesthesia risk from two different procedures, and to optimize the nose-lip-chin aesthetic at one surgery.

The next step for you is to find the right aesthetic plastic surgeon. In your rhinoplasty consultation, be sure your surgeon addresses all your aesthetic goals and concerns specifically, and discusses the surgery details...

Rhinoplasty and Fillers
Feb 3, 2023
Hello and thank you for your question. Dissolving filler is unlikely to affect/disrupt the osseo-cartilaginous (the bone and cartilage) framework of your rhinoplasty. Once your filler is dissolved, your nose appearance will likely be similar to what it was before the filler was injected.

Good luck.

Revision Rhinoplasty
Jan 25, 2023
Hello and thank you for your question. Although an exam in person is ideal, from your photographs alone it appears that you can benefit from a subtle tip refinement with either modification of your tip cartilage or soft tissue grafting to improve that asymmetry. Another possible (temporary) option is injection of nasal filler. Due to your prior rhinoplasty, the cartilage in your septum was likely harvested and so you will likely require MTF (cadaver) cartilage. The modification of your...

Revision Rhinoplasty
Jan 25, 2023
Hello and thank you for your question. Without an exam or photograph(s), it is difficult to answer this question. A potential (temporary) solution is nasal filler. A more permanent solution is a revision rhinoplasty involving soft tissue grafting (specifically from mastoid fascia) to thicken the tissue.

Once all the swelling has resolved (in a year to a year and a half), the next step for you is to pursue the right aesthetic plastic surgeon for your revision rhinoplasty. In your...

Revision Rhinoplasty
Jan 25, 2023
Hello and thank you for your question. Although an exam in person is ideal, from your photographs alone it appears that you can benefit from tip refinement with reconstruction of your external nasal valve (nostril area) to improve/prevent the collapse you discussed. Due to your prior rhinoplasty, the cartilage in your septum was likely harvested and so you will likely require MTF (cadaver) cartilage. The modification of your nasal cartilage can be done with trimming, stitching or grafting...

Revision Rhinoplasty
Jan 25, 2023
Hello and thank you for your question. Although an exam in person is ideal, from your photograph alone it appears that you can benefit from surgical maneuvers to decrease the alar-columellar show as you stated. Operating in the columella area alone may not suffice. You may also benefit from a caudal septal trip and further tip modification. This would involve a complete revision rhinoplasty. Due to your prior rhinoplasty, the cartilage in your septum was likely harvested and so you will...

Revision Rhinoplasty
Jan 25, 2023
Hello and thank you for your question. Although an exam in person is ideal, from your photographs alone it appears that you can benefit from a subtle tip refinement where the nasal tip cartilage is modified. I am unaware of a non-surgical modality to reliably (and permanently) improve nostril asymmetry. Due to your prior rhinoplasty, the cartilage in your septum was likely harvested and so you will likely require MTF (cadaver) cartilage. The modification of your nasal cartilage can be...
