He pursued a cosmetic fellowship at Virginia Hospital Center in Arlington, Virginia and a plastic surgery fellowship at Stanford University, focused on micro/reconstructive surgery and hand surgery.

Over the course of his education, Dr. Fazilat was consistently invited to participate in competitive research programs, including The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Fellowship Program. This research has not only informed his skillset as an esteemed plastic surgeon but has allowed him to serve as an authority in the field. To date, he has authored and co-authored over a dozen publications.

In addition to being board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, Dr. Fazilat is a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS). He is currently an adjunct faculty/clinical instructor at Stanford University in the Division of Plastic Surgery.

When he is not treating his patients or training future plastic surgeons, Dr. Fazilat works with breast cancer patients at the El Camino Hospital Cancer Center. He also works overseas with SmileTrain (and similar organizations) helping to improve the quality of life for people with cleft lips and palates.

Answer Snippet
Facial balancing (filler) recommendations, is Belotero the best?
Belotero for Undereyes
May 17, 2023
Hi! Belotero is a GREAT choice when it comes to undereye fillers. The reason why we prefer to add Belotero to the undereye is because, since it is a clear gel, it will not cause a tyndall effect when placed superficially. It is a hydrophobic filler and does not absorb as much water as some other fillers can. Using a hydrophobic filler under the eyes is very important due to the delicate structures surrounding. For some added support, it is recommended to add filler to your cheeks as well in...
Can I have chin filler two days after chin liposuction?
Chin filler after liposuction...
May 17, 2023
Hello! It is not recommended to add filler to the chin a couple days AFTER chin liposuction. Liposuction under the chin will cause a decent amount of swelling, making you look fuller than before the actual surgery. This will throw off how you truly look and what the final outcome will be. It is best to wait a full 4-6 weeks minimum prior to adding chin filler and chin liposuction. Once cleared by your surgeon, you should be good to go!
I hate lower half of face, dent in chin & lips are downturned, what fillers do you recommend?
Lower face filler
May 17, 2023
I would recommend some sort of Hyaluronic Acid filler to your full face in order to provide structure and appropriate facial proportions. My go-to lip filler product to inject is Restylane Kysse. It is the perfect hybrid product that will provide structure and natural volume. For chin denting and structure, I always suggest the combo of neurotoxin (Botox or Dysport) + HA filler to the chin to soften out asymmetries. Number of syringes used will be determined upon in-person assessment with an...
Wrinkles around jaw, chin & mouth - is there a filler to fix them?
Yes, there is a solution!
May 17, 2023
Every single person has asymmetries of the face to some degree. It is common for one side of the mouth to show deeper lines compared to the other side due to sleeping positions, excess sun exposure from driving, etc. However, there is a solution for you, and that is dermal HA fillers + neurotoxin to the mentalis muscle (chin). I would suggest starting to 1-2mL of HA fillers to soften out smile lines around the mouth. You can also benefit from a little bit of Botox to the chin which will help...
Botox Deep Static Frown Line
How to get rid of stubborn frown lines
May 17, 2023
Frown lines can be very pesky and difficult to provide a full correction when they are severe. I would recommend to treat the surrounding muscle groups like your frontalis and orbicularis oculi muscle (crows feet). Doing so will help to relax the accessory muscles that contribute to severity of frown lines. FDA suggests that you treat the upper face with about 64 units in total for optimal results. If there is still no improvement after increasing dosing, my suggestion would be to try out...
What is the best procedure to treat the nasiolabial folds and marionette lines for a lift? (ph
For a more youthful lift...
Oct 14, 2021
Hi Kaylee! It looks like you would be a great candidate for filler injections. This treatment can last anywhere from 6 months to 18 months (this typically depends on how quickly the patient metabolizes the product and which product is used). Filler would be a great option to reduce these lines, and give you the more youthful and lifted appearance that you are looking for. Hope this helps!
What do you recommend for size and implant type to achieve a larger natural size?
Implant Recommendation
Sep 4, 2019
Thank you for your question. Viewing before/after photos to gauge expected results is always a great way to start the process. Make sure to schedule a Cosmetic Consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to discuss your options and "try on" different sizes. Your BCPS will take measurements to decipher which size would be best for your body and breast shape.
Breast lift gone wrong 4 years ago. Can it be fixed?
Breast Lift Revision
Sep 4, 2019
Thank you for your question. You can absolutely have a revision procedure to correct the flattened nipple/lack of projection. From the information you provided, I recommend visiting with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to discuss next steps.
Breasts already sagging and no firmness on "side boob". What would my revision options be? (Ph
Revision Options
Sep 4, 2019
Thank you for your question. Your results to appear to be normal, and you have a great result. My recommendation would be to replace the current implant with a high profile, highly cohesive gel implant to provide you with the round, firm look that you are hoping for. Visit your original surgeon for revision options.
I wish you the best of luck on your surgical journey.

The smooth implant will not change its shape if...

This looks like a spitting suture, please visit your PS and have him/her take a look. It should be an easy in-office fix.

No, you do not drain remaining fat or fluids through your urine after laser liposuction. Please visit your Plastic Surgeon as soon as possible. It sounds as if you have blood in your urine, which could be due to irritation from catheter (if one was used).
Best of luck,
