RealSelf Q&A with Dr. Ramsen Azizi
RS: What makes your practice unique?
RA: In addition to delivering an excellent level of surgery and results, it’s the hands-on care and support we provide, preoperatively and postoperatively.
I love people, and I’m able to put patients at ease and connect with them quickly. They’re here to talk about something very sensitive that they’ve thought about for a long time, so the environment has to be warm and personal.
RS: What’s a consultation with you like?
RA: I set aside at least 45 minutes for both virtual and in-person consults, so I can dive deep into the patient’s goals and what they’re looking for. I always tell patients, “You’re not buying coffee and donuts. You’re buying surgery, which is a big deal, so we need to talk about everything.”
I’m very upfront about realistic expectations, and I don’t sugarcoat things like pain, soreness, and swelling. Post-operatively, there shouldn’t be many surprises that crop up —my patients know what to expect.
RS: How would you describe your approach to plastic surgery?
RA: It starts with patient goals, and we work backward from there. Sometimes they need a little help, sometimes more, and sometimes it’s not completely possible. An important, though difficult, part of my job is also to tell patients when they don’t need surgery.
Once we’ve talked in detail about how to attain their goals, I use every technique and technology possible to deliver for them. I shoot for perfection and, hopefully, land on awesome.
RS: What inspired you to be a plastic surgeon?
RA: My dad is a surgeon. Once I saw him in action, I was like, “This is awesome! I’ve got to do surgery!” I did a lot of different surgical rotations in medical school to figure out what kind I wanted to do.
I’m really into music—I’ve played piano, guitar, and drums, and I’ve written and produced electronic music since I was 14. The out-of-the-box thinking plastic surgery requires felt very creatively similar to the music production I’d been doing for so long.
Plastic surgery isn’t always life-saving, but it IS life-changing. I love what I do. Most days, I can’t believe I get paid to do this.
