Philosophy on Beauty & Facial Surgery
Plastic Surgery with Purpose
ForDr. Masoud Saman and Dr. Nigar Ahmedli share a clear practice philosophy. They believe that aesthetic surgery is a want, not a need, and that every person is already beautiful. Their goal is not beautification for its own sake but alignment. They help patients bring their external appearance into harmony with how they feel internally, as long as that vision is healthy, realistic, and consistent with timeless aesthetic norms. Their work is never guided by trends or fads. Instead, they focus on refined, elegant, and elevated results that remain beautiful for years to come.
This shared philosophy guides every patient interaction. Both surgeons are transparent, ethical, and thoughtful, often turning patients away when expectations are unrealistic or when surgery is unlikely to achieve the clarity or confidence the patient is seeking. They believe in honest guidance and in protecting both the patient and the art of surgery. As a team, Dr. Saman and Dr. Ahmedli uphold the same standard of technical excellence and integrity, even though each brings a unique artistic style. Patients can trust that no matter which surgeon they choose, the experience and the values behind the work remain consistent, grounded, and deeply committed to timeless beauty.
Two Surgeons. One Promise.
A key point in our practice is that we are two surgeons with one shared promise. While each of us brings a unique style and artistic eye, we are aligned in our values. Ethical decision making, transparency, thoughtfulness, and a genuinely human approach shape every patient interaction.
No matter which surgeon a patient chooses, they can be certain of the same level of technical excellence and the same standard of care that defines our reputation. The experience remains consistent. The integrity remains consistent. The results remain consistently outstanding.
At Saman Facial Plastic Surgery, our philosophy centers on honest guidance and exceptional results, delivered by a team of top-tier providers.

Your journey to confident enhancement is our shared priority.

How Experience as Cancer Surgeon Shapes Dr. Saman’s Aesthetic Philosophy
Dr. Masoud Saman’s journey into aesthetic surgery did not begin in the realm of beauty. Before becoming known as one of the leading rhinoplasty and facial rejuvenation surgeons, he served as the Medical Director and leader of one of the largest head and neck cancer and facial trauma centers of excellence in North Texas. There, he treated some of the most advanced cancers, and performed complex facial reconstructions after high-velocity motor vehicle accidents or ballistic injuries. These technical and human experiences, he says, permanently shaped the way he approaches plastic surgery today.
Reconstructing a face from scratch requires more than technical skill. It demands creativity, resourcefulness, and out-of-the-box thinking to restore both form and function. It also requires compassion and the ability to understand the human condition at its most vulnerable. “When you have sat with families in their hardest moments or rebuilt a patient’s face after devastating trauma, you gain a perspective on what really matters,” Dr. Saman explains. That perspective now informs the empathy and care with which he approaches every patient seeking aesthetic refinement.
While many surgeons receive some exposure to oncology or reconstructive cases during training, Dr. Saman’s experience goes far deeper. As a leader in head and neck cancer surgery, he managed the most advanced and complex cases on a daily basis and for years. That level of expertise provided him with a skill set that few aesthetic-only surgeons ever acquire: mastery of intricate anatomy, the ability to problem-solve under immense pressure, and the creativity to rebuild when nothing is straightforward.
Today, in his aesthetic practice in New York City, that foundation elevates his work in rhinoplasty and facelifting. His reconstructive background gives him an edge in precision, planning, and execution, and it fuels his commitment to timeless, natural results rather than trends. For patients, it means entrusting their care to a surgeon who not only understands beauty but also values life, resilience, and the depth of the human experience.
Dr. Masoud Saman, Global Voice Against Digital Beauty Standards
Around the world, few voices have been as outspoken on the dangers of beauty filters as Dr. Masoud Saman, a globally recognized facial plastic surgeon and thought leader in aesthetic medicine. He has emerged as a leading authority on how social media filters are reshaping self-image, fueling unrealistic beauty standards, and harming the mental health of young people.
Dr. Saman speaks extensively on international podcasts, at global roundtables, and in professional forums, positioning himself as an activist against the negative influence of filter culture. He warns that the filtered face has become a false baseline, one that no procedure can achieve, leaving adolescents especially vulnerable to self-doubt, anxiety, and dissatisfaction. His research, combined with patient stories, illustrates how digital beauty is eroding authenticity and shaping a generation’s perception of self.
What makes Dr. Saman’s perspective so influential is his dual role as both surgeon and cultural critic. He advocates for authenticity, encouraging patients and practitioners alike to embrace natural proportions rather than digital distortions. For him, this is more than a medical issue, it is a global cultural challenge. By confronting the harms of beauty filters head-on, he has positioned himself as a leading voice in the worldwide conversation on youth, technology, and the future of beauty.
The Epidemic of Skincare for Kids: Dr. Masoud Saman Sounds the Alarm
Dr. Masoud Saman, a globally recognized facial plastic surgeon and father of three daughters, has become an outspoken critic of the growing trend of marketing adult skincare to children. He describes it not as a passing fad, but as a dangerous epidemic that threatens the long-term health of young skin. “By the time many of these children turn twenty, they risk looking years older than their age,” he warns, citing the inappropriate use of glycolics, retinols, and strong acids on developing skin.
For Dr. Saman, the responsibility does not lie with parents alone. While he acknowledges that families ultimately make purchasing decisions, he points out that the pressure is real, fueled by social media, peer influence, and relentless marketing. To place the burden entirely on parents, he argues, is both unfair and unrealistic. Instead, he calls on the entire society to act: retailers must sell responsibly, brands should stop packaging products in ways that deliberately target children, and policymakers should step in to create rules and guardrails around this seemingly cute, but deeply harmful trend.
Dr. Saman believes that true skincare for children is simple: protection with sunscreen, healthy nutrition, adequate hydration, and, when necessary, a gentle moisturizer. If medical conditions arise, he emphasizes the importance of consulting a board-certified dermatologist rather than resorting to products designed for adults. “Children deserve protection, not pressure,” he often says, a message aimed not just at parents, but at the culture at large.
His advocacy frames the issue as one of collective responsibility. To safeguard children, parents must be empowered, brands must act with integrity, and society must recognize that beauty marketing is no longer just an adult problem. Dr. Saman has taken this message to national platforms, including his invited appearance on A Moment of Xen on iHeart Radio 710 WOR in New York City. In that segment, he spoke candidly about the risks of children using adult skincare products and called for cultural and policy changes to protect the next generation.
The response from parents has been overwhelming. A recent Instagram reel where Dr. Saman addressed the dangers of kids’ skincare reached nearly three million viewers and received thousands of comments from parents who strongly agreed that this trend must stop. For Dr. Saman, this momentum is proof that families are aware, engaged, and ready for change. “Together we can fix this,” he insists, reminding both parents and society at large that protecting children’s skin is not just a family duty but a collective responsibility.
