About
Doctors
Equal parts an innovator, a scientist and an artist, Dr. Ahmad Saad is a US board-certified plastic surgeon, specialized in aesthetic and reconstructive plastic surgery. He completed his training at leading international universities – Yale University and University of California San Diego (UCSD), and is world renowned for his innovative techniques. Dr. Saad is a pioneer of the PAL®-HD , High Definition liposculpture technique for advanced body sculpting in which he precisely defines target areas for fat removal, skin tightening, cellulite reduction, contouring, and definition. In addition to his contributions in this field of medicine, he trains surgeons from all over the world to safely use this technique and deliver superior results for their patients. "Individuals are not easily defined or quantified, but are instead a harmonized blend of tangible and intangible qualities. I believe personal aesthetics can only be obtained by respecting personal identity, treating each person as a unique case and understanding personal desires and backgrounds."

There aren't enough stars for me to give Dr. Saad and his team
I was in search for a surgeon for a T/T with muscle repair for years. I was getting discouraged by many of the clinics requesting for me to send photos then send a deposit; without me actually speaking to a surgeon. I was told I would meet the surgeon the day of the procedure. What?!!! ... There was no way I could trust a doctor that would schedule a major surgery without speaking to me first...
Ethnic Rhinoplasty Experience
My experience with Dr. Saad could not have been better. He is extremely professional and detail-orientated, and has been so from the very first consultation right through to all my post-operative check-ups. He performed an ethnic rhinoplasty on me and gave me a nose that suits my facial dimensions/features perfectly - something that I was concerned other surgeons might not be able to achieve,...

Breast Capsulectomy, Implant Removal, and Lift - La Jolla, CA
In 2003 I got a breast augmentation. About 5 years ago, I started having shooting pains in my breasts when I slept at night so I decided to get my implants removed this year. I was terrified that I would end up looking deformed and/or super scarred like Frankenstein since I was a 32D and transitioning back to my natural size of 32 A+/B- (lol). The surgery involved removal of the capsule,...

A: very good question and concern. Back in the 1980s plastic surgeon were aggressively removing buccal fat to shape the face. However, these patients were noted to develop hollowing in their cheek area as they age. Nowadays, we remove just the tail of the buccal fat pad, which improves the curves in your face and should not have any consequences as you age. This procedure is done in clinic under local anesthesia with no downtime. Hope that was helpful.
A: The best option to lower the upper lip would be a procedure to disinsert two small muscle called depressor septic nasi. This is procedure done using local anesthesia in the clinic with quick recovery.
A: Hello, It is hard to evaluate the quality and thickness of the skin on a photo. Having said that, based on what I see, I do not think your skin is too thin for rhinoplasty. Different skin quality and thickness should be taken into consideration during the rhinoplasty procedure to avoid unwanted outcomes. Hope that was helpful
A: Hello. Pain can happen but unusual as the bone is still in the healing process. Regarding bleeding, probably you have an exposed artery from the trauma that bleeds from time to time. I strongly recommend you get evaluated by an expert.
A: Hello! This is a great question that I get asked by my patients. The buccal fat pad, also know as Bichat fat pad, is completely different and in different layer than the malar fat. Having said that, reduction of the buccal fat should not affect the malar fat volume or location. Hope that was helpful.
