From the reviews
Highly Recommend Dr. Raffy Karamanoukian I had a complication after a blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) performed elsewhere — the incision unexpectedly opened, and I was extremely anxious. Dr. Raffy Karamanoukian was truly amazing.
I have been coming to Dr. Karamanoukian on and off for the past 2 years for help with dissolving old fillers in my face that were making me look feminine and bloated. I went to many other doctors that overcharged me and continued to gaslight me throughout the dissolving process when I wasn't seeing results. Dr.
I recently completed my first CO2 laser resurfacing for stretch marks removal procedure on my breasts with Dr. Raffy, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience.
Review for Dr. Karamanoukian – 5 Stars I’ve been a patient of Dr. Karamanoukian for nearly 20 years, and there’s no one else I trust more with my care. No matter where I’ve lived—whether across the state or across the country—I’ve always made the trip back just to see him. That’s how exceptional he is. Dr.
Researching a tummy tuck?
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is major surgery with real risks and a recovery that usually runs several weeks — this page is a starting point for finding a surgeon, not medical advice. The most useful next step is a consultation, where a surgeon reviews your health history, examines you, talks through your options, and gives a personal quote. Bring questions and don't rush the decision.
Questions worth asking: Are you board-certified in plastic surgery (and can I verify it)? Where would you operate, and is the facility accredited? Can I see before-and-after photos of your own patients? What are the risks and the realistic recovery timeline for me? What's your revision policy if something needs adjusting? Whatever a listing says, always verify certification directly with the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) at abplasticsurgery.org, and discuss your candidacy, risks, and recovery with the surgeon.
