Marathon runner 1 year post op – complex revision rhinoplasty using own rib graft
This wonderful patient of mine had a neck lift 2 months ago. She came in seeking better contouring of her neck and jawline. She initially sought consultation for neck liposuction. However, careful evaluation and discussions with the patient allowed us to choose a more appropriate course of treatment- a neck lift! Sometimes patients may not understand their own anatomy, which is why I enjoy mapping out their conditions and treatment options from an anatomical perspective.
Liposuction will only address the layer of fat that sits beneath the skin above the muscle. If you look at her before photos, you will see she does not actually have a “fatty” neck. Instead, she has a sagging in her muscles that are causing an obtuse angle (red arrows). By tightening those muscles up, and bringing them higher up, it improves the contour of the neck. A great adjuvant surgery would be a lower face lift to also enhance the jawline contour. However, she decided to go with the neck lift, and still had a fantastic result!
Your face is the first thing someone sees when they meet you. It’s something you look at in the mirror every day. The impression we make with our facial appearance is something we all think about, and if that appearance doesn’t match the way we see ourselves inside, it can have a detrimental effect on our happiness and self-esteem. Dr. Mourad is highly skilled and experienced in several types of facial plastic surgery to reshape the face and create a more youthful, attractive appearance. He understands that many people can be sensitive or anxious about facial plastic surgery procedures, and works hard to ensure that all of his patients are satisfied with the end result of their surgery.

Excited to share before and after photos of a female facelift. This wonderful 63-year-old patient came in wanting a more youthful, rested, and refreshed look. She underwent a deep plane facelift and neck lift. This procedure reduces neck webbing, or “turkey gobbler” neck. It also reduces the deep lines (nasolabial grooves) around the mouth. She’s thrilled with her results, and feel blessed to be trusted with her care.

Excited to share before/after photos of a sliding genioplasty! This patient had microgenia, referring to a small chin. Common options for this surgery are:
Chin Implant
Sliding Genioplasty.
This patient underwent a sliding genioplasty, where the chin bone was actually advanced. It is a natural solution with the best long term results. Benefits of implants on the other hand include less down time, and reduced operative time. I am very happy to be able provide both options to my patients.
UPDATE:
Happy to post a 5-month post-op of one of my most wonderful patients! He underwent male rhinoplasty and sliding genioplasty for chin augmentation. These two procedures complement each other nicely to balance out the nose. Still a mild amount of swelling that should come down over the next 6 months.

Thrilled to show before/after photos of my Park Avenue patient. This is a wonderful patient that underwent an endoscopic browlift. This is a minimally invasive procedure that uses small incisions in the scalp to restore balance and symmetry to the face. This can be done for both cosmetic and reconstructive purposes. This patient was left with a paralyzed right eye brow after a previous surgery by another physician. The goal was to restore the balance and aesthetic of his eye brow position.

This is a lovely patient of mine that underwent upper eyelid surgery with me 4 months ago. One of the most common complaints that I get is that patients often look “tired”. They also complain that it is difficult to apply makeup, and they have to “lift up” their skin to get the makeup just right. This can be related to excessive upper eyelid skin drooping downwards secondary to the effects of aging and gravity. Surgery involves removing portions of excess skin, in addition to fat and muscle (if necessary). Surgery is designed to “restore” the upper eyelid crease as seen in this patient. Excessive resection can lead to a hollowed appearance that may make patients actually look older than they are.
