Dr. Mourad is the best! Can't thank him enough for his kindness. Two years ago I had a rhinoplasty, facelift, and neck lift with him. My case was complicated by previous surgeries, but he was the best surgeon in New York City that I consulted with. Highly recommend!

Truly a wonderful place to get care. Dr. Mourad is great and empathetic, taking the time to listen to your worries. Had a septoplasty done with him and my breathing has improved greatly. His staff is also incredible; you’ll feel really cared for when you go.

I had a septorhinoplasty with rib graft performed by Dr. Mourad, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the care and expertise he and his staff provided throughout the entire process. From the initial consultation to post-operative follow-ups, Dr. Mourad was incredibly thorough, attentive, and compassionate.
The results have exceeded my expectations both functionally and aesthetically.
I asked him to fix my deviated septum while keeping the natural look of my nose—and he delivered perfectly.
If you’re looking for a surgeon who listens, cares, and delivers outstanding results, I can’t recommend Dr. Mourad enough 😁

Dr.Mourad is a true artist! With the genius of Mozart and the creativity of Picasso, he delivered beyond perfection!

I was suffering from a lot of functional breathing issues that was impacting my quality of life. I live in India, and went to see an ENT there, that straight away suggested surgery. Which was supposed to be purely functional without any cosmetic alterations (as I loved my nose and didn’t want any changes).

However, something drastically went wrong during the surgery, and it left me with a disfigured, significantly shortened and upturned nose with a hump (which never existed before). The mental trauma was such that for an entire year, I walked around with my nose taped, to hide deformity!

It was a challenging case, and quite a few surgeons in the U.S said they couldn’t get it back to my original as too much damage was done!

However, that all changed when I met Dr.Mourad! His calmness and confidence reassured me! He studied my original face, analysed it and he not only delivered everything he promised, but he far exceeded my expectations! He got me back to my original self and dare I say with an upgrade! If my original nose was a 9/10.. Dr.Mourad has made it a 10/10!

The entire process was made seamless, he followed up with me throughout the recovery process, his staff were beyond kind! Not only is Dr.Mourad a god at what he does, but he is also a true gentleman!

A Heartfelt Thank You to Dr. Mourad and His Team

I cannot express enough gratitude for Dr. Mourad’s incredible talent, compassion, and dedication. My daughter suffered a broken nose during a high school basketball game after taking a hard hit to the face. At first, we weren’t sure if it was truly broken or just badly swollen, so we sent a photo to Dr. Mourad for guidance. In mere seconds, he could tell it was fractured—a moment that devastated my daughter. Being a young girl in high school is already challenging, and the sudden change in her appearance only added to her distress.

From the very first interaction, Dr. Mourad was reassuring, kind, and incredibly responsive. He scheduled an appointment the very next day to go over her options, taking into account her active lifestyle as a three-season athlete. Understanding her eagerness to heal and return to sports, he and his team moved swiftly, scheduling her surgery within the week.

Now, just two weeks post-surgery, her nose looks absolutely amazing. Dr. Mourad not only restored her original shape—he may have even made it look a little better! My daughter is beyond grateful for his skilled hands, and as a parent, I am in awe of how seamlessly he guided us through this experience with warmth, patience, and expertise.

Dr. Mourad, you are truly exceptional at what you do, but more than that, you are a wonderful person who genuinely cares about your patients. Thank you for everything—you and your team have our deepest appreciation!

Frequently Asked Questions

What can a facelift surgery help improve?
Facelift surgery effectively addresses the physical signs of aging by lifting lax skin, restoring definition around the chin and jawline, and softening facial folds. It offers comprehensive improvements for both surface-level wrinkles and the deeper structural changes that occur with age.
How do I choose the best facelift surgeon in Albany?
When selecting a surgeon, patients should look for credentials such as board certification, a record of specialized training, and evidence of successful results in previous patients. Dr. Mourad is known for combining scientific precision with artistic vision, allowing him to produce long-lasting improvements that appear balanced and natural.
What is the difference between facial plastic surgery and reconstructive plastic surgery?
Cosmetic facial procedures aim to refine appearance and bring balance to facial features, while reconstructive plastic surgery is centered on restoring normal form and functionality following injury, cancer, or congenital issues. Dr. Mourad’s practice encompasses both, ensuring his patients receive solutions that enhance appearance and address medical needs.
What should I expect during a facelift procedure?
The facelift process begins with an in-depth consultation to ensure that goals and treatment strategies are aligned. During surgery, tissues are repositioned, excess skin is carefully removed, and the overall structure of the face is improved. The results create a refreshed look while preserving natural identity and expression.
Can a facelift be combined with other treatments for facial rejuvenation?
Yes, facelifts are often most effective when performed alongside complementary procedures such as brow lifts, eyelid surgery, or minimally invasive treatments. Dr. Mourad’s customized plans integrate these treatments thoughtfully, ensuring outcomes that are smooth, natural, and tailored to each patient’s needs.

From Our Blog

Every patient wants to know how long recovery will take after their facial plastic surgery procedure. The answer is that recovery isn’t the same for everyone. The timeline depends on the type of facial plastic surgery you choose, your individual healing response, and how closely you follow aftercare instructions. While some procedures allow you to return to regular activities within a week, others require several weeks before you feel fully comfortable in public. The key is understanding that recovery is a process, and each stage brings you closer to the final results you’re excited to see.

When patients ask us,“What is the most effective type of facial plastic surgery?” the honest answer is that it depends on your specific goals. Effectiveness in facial surgery isn’t about one procedure being better than all the rest. It’s actually about choosing the treatment that best addresses your concerns, such as softening signs of aging, reshaping a feature, or restoring balance to your appearance.

Super amazing doctor and staff! they’re all so patient and understanding and really care about you. 10/10!

I was on the hunt for the perfect plastic surgeon for a rhinoplasty/septoplasty for many years. When I found Dr Mourad and decided to proceed with the surgery, it was the best decision I ever made. He changed my life, my look, my ability to breathe and stop snoring! I flew in from out of town for the surgery and he and his staff were so accommodating. The days post op he was available by text, call, his personal number, to make sure everything was going well and it did. My recovery was easy and I was able to fly out of town and back to work in a week. He was honest about what would look natural and what wouldn’t and my surgery came out looking so natural many people who know me couldn’t pinpoint what exactly changed. Dr Mourad stayed in touch, I sent him photos and he monitored my progress even being long distant. I’m so thankful to him, and his skill. He is an excellent surgeon who truly cares.
