Hanging Columella Revision By Dr. Karimi

The photo speaks for itself. Dr. Karimi is the best. There is no close second. My first rhinoplasty left me with a horrible hanging columella that was pointed downward and looked so bad when I smiled. Dr. Karimi fixed this and did a wonderful job. I was swollen for over a year, but that's because I was eating like garbage. Once I cleaned my diet, the swelling went down, my skin improved, and I started glowing more. Dr. Karimi is a Leo and it shows. He is so caring and sweet. Every time I see him, which has only been a few times, I feel like I'm meeting with a good friend from a past life. He's truly a bright light of a human. Before my procedure I was quiet, because I am a shy person. My eyes were a bit teary but nothing I think he would have noticed. After he made the marks on where he'd cut, he gave me a hug and told me he'd take care of me. To this day when I think about that hug I cry. I was a stranger to him and he had no reason to be so kind. I already paid, I've had plenty of surgeries / procedures and no provider ever hugged me. His hug felt so genuine and a lot like hugs from my dad - even though my dad passed many years ago. I felt so cared about and protected. Also he's so funny. Because I had a horrible diet I was allergic to everything and he made me laugh about it instead of freaking out. I adore that man. Great human. Great surgeon. He's the way to go. Just stop eating bad food as early as you can. The recovery and swelling and everything else will be way better.

Nice Office Manager

The staff was wonderful—very nice, patient, and supportive. Sherry, the office manager, was especially kind and helpful, making me feel comfortable and cared for. The office is pretty, clean, and beautifully remodeled.

First Time Trying Daxxify!

I had a great experience with Dr. Karimi! I felt very comfortable and safe. Definitely would come back. It was my first time trying DAXXIFY, and appreciated that the product doesn't contain human or animal byproducts, like other products do

Can’t Wait to Go Back

This review is long overdue. I went to see Dr. Kian a few months ago, and I had a wonderful experience. From the beginning, he took the time to patiently explain everything to me, answer all of my questions and make sure that I was comfortable every step of the way. He told me what to expect, and how the how long to wait to make sure everything was settled in. I loved my results. It all looked very natural and nobody could tell that I had gotten work done. I just looked refreshed and youthful. I look forward to going back to him for future services.

Amazing Experience, and Life Changer

I was recommended Dr. Kian Karimi by my dermatologist. At first I was very nervous to go through with the procedure (septoplasty and a rhino to fix a very deviated septum,) but he made me feel extremely comfortable during the consultations, before surgery and post-recovery. He is an expert doctor with results that triumphed all my expectations. My nose is fully functional and breathing, something that I had never experienced before my teens, and it looks gorgeous and straight. He is kind and has great bed side manner, and compared to my experience with most other doctors, he is extremely warm and caring. I could not recommend him more. It goes without saying but his expertise, experience and credentials, delivered results that were unimaginable to me. He is a life changer. It sometimes takes a lot out of me to blindly trust the process, but I am already almost 5 months post-op and so happy that I took the chance. Like I said, I could not recommend him more.

Wonderful doctor - Beautiful, natural look!

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Karimi and his nurses/staff. I did a lot of research to find the right doctor for me. I have been wanting to have my nose done for a very long time, but wanted to make sure it looked completely natural. I had been following Dr. Karimi on his instagram and what I loved most about him was how his work was so natural and didn’t look overdone. My consultation went great and he is such a nice person and easy to talk to. Surgery went smoothly, no pain whatsoever. Would recommend Dr. Karimi to anyone who wants a beautiful, natural look!

I have received nothing but compliments on how my nose looks.

I am beyond thrilled with the results of my rhinoplasty performed by Dr. Karimi. From start to finish, the entire experience was exceptional. In my consultation, he knew exactly what to change to give me the nose I envisioned, and it's better than I could have expected. The recovery was better and easier than I imagined it would be, and I have received nothing but compliments on how my nose looks. Dr. Karimi and his team took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure and post-op care, and answered all questions I had ahead of the surgery. I cannot recommend Dr. Karimi enough.

Overall it was a terrific experience

After my years of contemplation about having a lower neck/face lift I finally made the decision to do it this past August. I have been getting injectables and other treatments from Dr. Karimi for over 10 years. What I love about Dr. Karimi, besides the fact that he is just fun to work with, is his honesty. Over the years he has told me "no" when I wanted something he felt was unnecessary and never pushed anything at me. He had been telling me for a while that my aging face had reached it limits as far as filler and the only real solution was a deep plane neck & face lift (plus full face fat transfer, upper & lower blepharoplasty, and a BBL Halo laser treatment). He was right. I was nervous about being under a general anesthetic for as long as I was (8 hours!) but I came out of that just fine. The first 4-6 days were a bit of a journey, but no pain. Just discomfort, swelling, etc., etc. His nurse, Michelle was & is amazing and answered all of my neurotic questions quickly. Overall it was a terrific experience, and now that I am coming up on 8 weeks and back to all of my normal activities, I am only left with some numbness, some quickly fading scars that aren't even visible, and lots of compliments! from those who know I had the procedure. Those didn't know have said nothing except your skin looks great. Highly recommend Dr. Karimi.

Dr. Karimi is amazing! Wanted nose to fit face & not lose my ethnicity

I am so thankful for Dr. Kian Karimi and his entire staff, my experience from the first phone call to his office to the postoperative follow-up has been fantastic. My initial rhinoplasty was done 20 years ago and the result was very disappointing; my deviated nasal septum was not corrected, the tip of my nose was not symmetric, and my nasal bridge still had an arch. I had just gotten my Internal Medicine residency and frankly did not have the time nor the inclination to go back to the surgeon who had done such a terrible job. I had spent the last few years trying to find someone I could trust. During my research Dr. Karimis' name came up a few times, in reviews, articles, all with glowing endorsements. I not only wanted my nose to fit my face, I'm Indian and didn't want to lose my ethnicity. I also needed my deviated nasal septum corrected, Dr. Karimi not only delivered on everything, the results have been even better than I imagined. As a physician I know all the things that can go wrong with a complex revision rhinoplasty, but Dr. Karimi, my wonderful nurse, and the entire surgical staff gave me step by step, daily instructions with very close follow-up to avoid any complications. I highly recommend Dr. Karimi, he is thoughtful, experienced, and is knowledgeable about the latest surgical procedures, but more importantly, he listened to what I wanted, and worked with me as a partner throughout.
