PERSPECTIVES FROM Dr. Saman

AI-assisted profile summary
naturallong-lastingspecializedpreservation

Signature technique

Dr. Saman's surgical repertoire is significantly defined by their mastery of the deep plane facelift, a cornerstone technique in their facial rejuvenation practice. This advanced method distinguishes itself by meticulously repositioning the deeper facial tissues beneath the SMAS layer, a crucial anatomical structure. Dr. Masoud Saman emphasizes that this approach yields outcomes that are not only more natural in appearance but also demonstrate superior longevity compared to conventional facelift procedures. Complementing this, Dr. Saman also incorporates preservation techniques in rhinoplasty, reflecting a broader surgical philosophy that prioritizes maintaining the natural structures of the nose whenever surgically appropriate, ensuring harmonious and authentic results for Dr. Masoud Saman's patients.

Ask Dr. Saman about the technique

Recovery view

Dr. Saman's practice outlines a clear recovery pathway for deep plane facelift patients, emphasizing established protocols to guide individuals through the post-operative period. Patients typically anticipate initial swelling and bruising, which generally subsides within the first two weeks following surgery. A return to most social activities is commonly observed within three to four weeks, allowing patients to resume their daily routines with confidence. However, Dr. Saman notes that the ultimate refinement of surgical results is a gradual process, continuing to evolve over several months. Dr. Masoud Saman also advises that New York City's dynamic environment necessitates careful planning for the recovery phase, ensuring patients can comfortably manage their healing journey.

Dr. Masoud Saman is a board-certified deep plane facelift surgeon based in New York, USA. With 15+ years of experience. Rated 4.9/5 based on 122 Google reviews.

About

With more than fifteen years in facial plastic surgery, Dr. Masoud Saman is a New York City surgeon who concentrates on rhinoplasty and facial rejuvenation. As of October 2026, Dr. Saman practices at Saman Facial Plastic Surgery in Manhattan, caring for patients who want refinement rather than dramatic change.

Dr. Masoud Saman completed medical training at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, one of the country's established academic medical centers. That foundation shaped a career built on anatomy, precision, and restraint.

Read more ▾

Among the procedures Dr. Saman offers is the deep plane facelift, a technique that repositions the deeper tissues of the face rather than simply pulling the skin. The method works beneath the SMAS (the superficial muscular aponeurotic system, a connective layer under the skin).

The philosophy behind the practice is stated plainly on its own website: facial surgery is less about changing a face than elevating it, without leaving fingerprints. That quiet, natural result guides each surgical plan Dr. Saman designs.

According to the practice website, Dr. Masoud Saman has trained more than forty-five surgeons worldwide. Teaching at that scale reflects years spent refining technique and passing it on to other practitioners.

The academic record listed by the practice includes more than ninety national and international invited lectures and over forty publications and book chapters. Dr. Saman is also the author of The Smart Guide to Rhinoplasty, an Amazon bestseller noted by Kirkus Reviews for its knowledgeable, supportive tone.

Dr. Saman's clinical interests span rhinoplasty, revision rhinoplasty, ultrasonic nose surgery, facelift, facial rejuvenation, and upper eyelid surgery. This range reflects a practice centered entirely on the face and its proportions.

Rhinoplasty remains a signature focus, including ultrasonic preservation rhinoplasty, which uses sound-based instruments to reshape nasal bone with less trauma. Dr. Saman also performs revision rhinoplasty for patients disappointed by an earlier operation elsewhere.

Before concentrating on aesthetics, Dr. Masoud Saman worked with complex reconstructive problems: facial trauma, cancer defects, facial paralysis, and advanced head and neck disease. In those cases the goal was often to restore swallowing, speech, airway, and movement, not only appearance.

That reconstructive background informs how Dr. Saman reads the aging face today. Understanding how anatomy can be distorted, removed, or scarred brings a deeper grasp of facial aging and tissue repositioning.

Facial rejuvenation, in this practice, begins with structure. The website frames the idea directly: structure determines what the surface can become, which is why the deeper layers are addressed before the skin.

Recovery is treated as part of the plan rather than an afterthought. A deep plane facelift generally involves a staged return to daily life, with swelling and bruising easing gradually over the first weeks.

Patients who choose Dr. Saman often want natural facial rejuvenation that respects their original features. The aim is a rested, balanced look, not an obviously operated one.

New York City places Dr. Masoud Saman's patients within one of the world's most concentrated medical communities. The city is known for demanding standards and for discreet, high-end care delivered quietly.

Dr. Saman has appeared in interviews exploring how beauty standards are shifting toward balance, vitality, and authenticity. Those conversations echo the understatement that defines the surgical work itself.

For anyone researching facial rejuvenation in New York, Dr. Masoud Saman represents a practice built on anatomy, education, and subtlety. DeepPlane.com lists the surgeon among the city's deep plane facelift providers.

After feeling somewhat disappointed about my first rhinoplasty, I was extremely scared to get a revision. I was happy -enough- with my primary result but it wasn't the nose I was supposed to have and I had some structural issues that were never addressed. I was so scared to waste my money, time, and the general medical risks - overall a revision was never worth the risk to me. But that changed when I found Dr. Ahmedli and her team. From the beginning I was struck by the level of artistry in her work and her background. Her eye for the detail is what anyone wants in a surgeon. But it was really her bedside manner that was the reason I decided to do this. I wasn't going to do a revision regardless of finding her - it was meeting her and talking through her work that actually got me to do this. She took as much time with me as I needed and never made me feel rushed. She listened closely, understood what my goals were, and made me feel completely at ease through this insanely scary decision. My result is more natural and balanced than I could have imagined, and my breathing and structural issues have been addressed in a way I didn't think possible. The standard of care at this office is truly best in class. Having been through this once before with a super reputable surgeon, I was honestly shocked by how different and elevated the experience at Saman is in comparison. You can tell everyone holds themselves to an incredibly high standard. I'm still early in the healing process, but I'm already thrilled. I'm so excited to see the final results in a year. I don't really write reviews like this but hope this can help anyone else who was in my shoes - if considering a revision or primary and are nervous about trusting someone like I was, I can't recommend Dr. Ahmedli enough

I have had the most wonderful experience with Dr. Ahmedli at SFPS. From my initial virtual consultation to surgery day and each of my post-op appointments, she has made me feel comfortable and supported every step of the way. What I valued most was how genuinely she listened to and validated my concerns. I never felt pressured or as though I was being sold on a second surgery. I ultimately chose Dr. Ahmedli for my revision rhinoplasty because I felt confident in her work and knew she truly understood what I wanted to address. I’m almost one month post-op, and I’m already so happy with my results! Her work is amazing and exactly what I was hoping for. I’m incredibly grateful to Dr. Ahmedli and the entire SFPS team!

I can’t leave a more positive review for Dr. Ahmedli and everyone at the Saman Facial Plastic surgery team. The second I met Dr. Ahmedli, I knew I wanted her to be my surgeon. She listened to all of my thoughts and concerns and really tailored my rhinoplasty to be unique to me and my features. I wanted to improve my septal deviation and slight aesthetic changes. I had never had surgery before and I couldn’t have had a better experience. I can’t imagine getting surgery anywhere else as I felt so cared for and comfortable. The first week after surgery is tough, but the whole team made it the easiest it could be on me. 6 months later, I love the result and am breathing better than ever. I wish I would have done this sooner and am so glad I did it before getting engaged/married. It is also such a special experience to be able to have a female plastic surgeon who just gets it. It is the best feeling to feel 100% confident in my nose and face from all angles. I’ll be forever grateful to this team, and especially Dr. Ahmedli💗

Dr. Ahmedli is truly one of a kind. After my initial consultation, I knew she was the plastic surgeon I wanted for my third revision rhinoplasty. After three unsuccessful surgeries, I never imagined my results could be this beautiful. I expected improvement, but I am genuinely amazed by how well it turned out. Dr. Ahmedli corrected everything I disliked about my nose. Dr. Ahmedli is exceptionally talented, knowledgeable, and attentive. She knew exactly how to give me the nose I had always wanted. Beyond being an artist in her field, she is kind, patient, and genuinely caring, taking the time to answer all my questions and concerns. In addition, the entire office/medical staff is so kind, welcoming, and accommodating. My experience was a 10 out of 10. The boutique setting at Saman Plastic Surgery made it even more special: my surgery day was centered entirely on me, and having the procedure done on-site meant I avoided a hospital setting. I highly recommend Dr Ahmedli, and I am so grateful for the confidence and happiness she has given me through her exceptional care. I love my new nose!

What is the recovery time for a deep plane facelift?
