Armen Vartany, MD, FACS

I consulted with many of the prominent names in plastic nose surgery in Los Angeles before ultimately selecting Dr. Vartany for my revision rhinoplasty in December. I am so happy with my choice. Dr. Vartany is extremely talented and empathetic and I highly recommend him!

Great experience, great staff. I looked for years trying to find the right person for the job. Came across Dr.Vartany and all my wishes came true. Thank u Dr. Vartany for my new nose!! My daughters had her nose done as well with Dr. Vartany and she also luvs her new nose!!

World-Class! Not only is Dr.Vartany an amazing plastic surgeon, but he is one of those rare people you come across that make you feel at ease. Words cannot explain how happy I am with my Tummy Tuck. This was my second surgery with Dr. Vartany and it was just as pleasant as the first one. I had lost weight in the beginning and that caused my breasts to become saggy, so Dr. Vartany gave me a breast lift with silicone implants. I postponed my tummy tuck because I wanted to loose more weight, to get the best results possible. When it was finally time, Dr. Vartany was again so patient and detailed about my procedure. I wanted to add a little but of liposuction to the abdominal area but I was very nervous because I have the lap-band and I did not want my port to move from its original spot. Dr. Vartany assured me that everything will be alright and he will be extra careful from my port. Today I am 7 weeks out..IN LOVE WITH MY RESULTS AND NO COMPLICATIONS WITH MY LAP BAND. The entire surgery went so smooth with Dr. Vartany and his amazing team. Literally felt like I took a nap and woke up. I can finally wear clothing with colors and not worry about my bulge sticking out. I was so happy, I bought three white dresses just because. Everyone who sees me compliments my appearance, whether or not they know I had anything done. I am so pleased not just with what was done but the great care before and after. Thank You So Much Dr. Vartany! You Are A Gem!

I have hated my arms for what seems like FOREVER. I have been so self-conscious! I have not worn a sleeveless or capped sleeve ANYTHING since I was in my 20's! After being pregnant with twins AND ending up in a wheelchair for many months (broken hips), all of my pregnancy weight and weight gain from inactivity really had me at maximum capacity. My skin was stretched to the point that I had stretch marks everywhere.

I have had other skin excision procedures to try and gain back a more youthful figure, but the arms had me scared. I wouldn't be able to hide the scar! It's so long! Well, it has taken YEARS for me to figure out that I would much rather have a line down my arm....THE SCAR....instead of this hanging, crepey, stretchmark covered slab that waves goodbye long after I am done.

Remember, I didn't want the wobbly chunk to show, so no cap sleeves or sleeveless. But, sometimes, I wouldn't be able to wear normal clothing because all of the skin would not fit into a regular sleeve. I was bound to clothes with stretch. Limited! OR, I always had to have a cover-up. Cute, sleeveless dress? Covering it with a light sweater or shawl! Sleeves too short? Covering! Super hot summer days? Didn't matter. At least a 3/4" sleeve.

Surgery done! I went for it! I had the most amazing surgical team. The entire process was seamless. The IV was started on the first stick! Dr. Vartany did some markings and then Dr. Shahani gave some "feel good" medicine to me through my IV. I can remember being rolled into the OR and being asked to scootch over. Then Dr. Shahani said, "take a nice deep breath of my special oxygen". Lights OUT!

Now I am waking up with nurse, Lynette, attending to my every need and ensuring my comfort. My pain level was a 3. No catheter was needed. Each of my arms were bandaged up with latex free ace bandages. There were pads carefully taped over my armpit area. I was comfortable.

After getting home, I was asked by my sister-in-law why I didn't have "one of those compression garments on?". Dr. Vartany is a genius. He did an "L" shaped incision to get the best contours and results. Armpits are notorious for complications and openings and/or infections. Leaving the "pits" open to breath and stay cool and dry avoided those issues!! I was getting the compression that I needed with the ace bandages, they were WAY easier to remove and put back on AND plenty of air circulating to avoid warm or moist areas that could potentially create a problem. PERFECT!

What has surprised me so far? I am 13 days post surgery now. The incision is so tight, clean and perfectly placed to barely be noticeable. From the back, you cannot see it. From the front, you cannot see it. And, when I show it, it is such a fine, thin line. Plastic Surgery Perfection! I got my #bodybyvartany and I am beyond thrilled so far. I'll post more pictures soon.

LOOK AT THE INCISION AND PLACEMENT OF INCISION!!!! AMAZING!!!! 3 weeks and 3 days after surgery and the incision looks amazing!! I am a little too active, so I am still experiencing swelling, and still padding my armpits to avoid friction. Friction does not feel fun! BUT WOW!!!! I can only take a selfie using one hand (still do not have full mobility), but I'll be posting more!

I felt the need to write this this review because this place deserves it! Dr. Vartany is simply amazing. First , I went for my chin liposuction, then Botox. And I'm planning on getting all my cosmetic stuff done there because they're that good and I'm happy with the results.

The reason I went to Dr. Vartany's office for my liposuction is because of his natural approach when it comes to surgery. He wasn't too aggressive but just right. The day of my surgery everything went so smoothly, easy and painless. The swelling was minimal and my results were great. Everyone was really attentive with my post op, Lucy was very helpful on accommodating my appointments with my schedule.

I also wanted to say how great Narine, the injection nurse is. No one can tell I get Botox, it's so natural yet all my unwanted wrinkles are smooth now.

I love coming here! It's been over a year and every time I have the best experience here with the kindest team.

I've been coming to Dr.Vartanys office for so many years now. This review is long over due. This office is just amazing. I come for my laser hair removal. The entire staff is so friendly, and my nurse Manna is just amazing. She is so thorough and get the job done super fast. I love this office, it's easy to get in and if it's packed they put me on the waitlist and I always get a call back. Lucy is great with following up and making sure I get my treatments on time. I started off slow but now I'm doing my entire body. It is totally worth it, and the results are just great. Thank you!

I'm not the reviewing type, but this is definitely an experience I feel like I should share! I was already going to Dr. Vartany's office for laser hair removal and everyone was always so nice that I decided I should look into having my rhinoplasty there. As I was looking into his work, I was impressed by his before and afters photos and the cute little videos on his website of "the cast off reveals" and it made me feel confident enough to go ahead with scheduling the surgery. I'm now shy of one month post-op and I've gotta say, what an artist!! I have told him that numerous times but everyone else must know that he is really a major talent. I'll be honest, first week post-op wasn't my favorite week but it was totally worth it...it was a nice excuse to lay around watching movies without feeling guilty. :) So even with my nose still being majorly swollen, it's adorable and I feel confident in ways I never did before. It looks like my old nose but new, improved, and super natural. He did exactly what I asked for. Just for reference...I had a hump and some drooping going on with the tip that was also slightly bulbous. Bottom line is, I highly recommend this doctor for rhinoplasty because you can't get more masterful than him.

P.S. His staff is super sweet and helpful. You have to feel comfortable with all aspects of a surgical procedure and they did a great job making me feel at ease with the whole experience. Thank you Dr. Vartany and staff! <3

Dr.Vartany is just amazing. I was very nervous about having a surgery, an he just made me feel so relaxed an secure. He treated me like I was family. Everyone of my questions were answered in detail and he was overall jut so patient with me. The day of my surgery I wasnt even scared anymore. Everything just went so smooth. His entire staff is just great. Lucy was by far helpful. She has such good positive energy that you forget your going to go under the knife, she assured I was going to be ok, with great results..and he wasn't lying. My eyes look absolutely amazing. I couldn't be happier. I recommend Dr. Vartany to anyone, I will soon come for my tummy tuck by the end of this year.

I've been coming to Dr. Vartany's office for many years now and I absolutely love the entire office. Lucy at front desk is so sweet and helpful all the time.My injection nurse Narine is amazing. I get Botox and Fillers and no one knows I even get them. I was always scared I will end up with a frozen look, but Narine does an excellent job at making me natural. I recommend this place to everyone!

I went to Dr. Vartany for a tummy tuck and I couldn't be happier!! I'm a little over a month post op with till Allton swelling but my results even now look fabulous. He is so detail oriented and walked me through everything. He took his time during the consultation and answered all my questions. His office staff is so friendly, and Lucy is so helpful through the entire process with all the questions I had after my consultation. I am so thankful. I recommend him to anyone!
