Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Ben Mousavi

Sourced directly from Dr. Ben Mousavi's social posts and replies.

What should patients consider when choosing a plastic surgeon?
Dr. Mousavi emphasizes that choosing the right surgeon is not optional. Patients should prioritize a surgeon's credentials, training, and affiliations over marketing or 'pretty pictures' to ensure safe and exceptional results. He recommends questioning surgeons whose affiliations do not include organizations like The American Board of Plastic Surgery, The Aesthetic Society, and ASPS.

Where does Dr. Mousavi recommend for professional skin treatments and medical-grade skincare?
Dr. Mousavi co-owns The Retreat Aesthetic & Vitality Center, which he considers the go-to for professional skin treatments, medical-grade skincare, and tinted SPF makeup.

What are the capabilities of a facelift and what post-operative care is needed?
A facelift can reposition, tighten skin, and address laxity, but it does not replace the need for ongoing skincare. Maintaining results after surgery is important, and treatments like microneedling, laser treatments, and dermal fillers may still be appropriate over time to address skin quality, texture, and volume changes.

What are laser treatments indicated for and when is the best time to start?
Dr. Mousavi refers to the current time of year as 'LASER SEASON,' ideal for refreshing, restoring, and transforming skin. Laser treatments are indicated for maintaining glow, addressing fine lines, wrinkles, pigment, sun damage, texture, and improving overall skin quality. It's considered the perfect time to start a laser treatment plan.

How long does it take to achieve great skin results?
Dr. Mousavi emphasizes that achieving great skin is not an immediate process and does not happen overnight.

How does weight loss affect the face and what are the treatment options?
Significant weight loss can lead to facial changes such as hollowing in the cheeks or temples, reduced facial support, and increased skin laxity. These changes, sometimes called 'Ozempic face,' are not exclusive to GLP-1 medications and can result from rapid or significant weight loss from any cause. There is no single treatment solution, and options don't always require surgery. Depending on individual anatomy and volume loss, treatments may include dermal fillers, facial fat grafting, or, for more significant skin laxity and tissue descent, a facelift and neck lift. The right approach begins with understanding the specific changes in the patient's face.

Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

No industry payments reported. We checked Dr. Ben Mousavi against the CMS Open Payments database and found no payments from drug or device makers on record for 2025, the most recent year CMS has published.

What areas of care does Dr. Ben Mousavi cater to?
Dr. Mousavi's areas of care include hair restoration, wound care, plastic and reconstructive surgery, aesthetic treatments, and internal medicine. He offers both traditional and modern medical approaches. At ULTIMATE Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, patient care is built on standards protecting safety, outcomes, and trust. The practice is dedicated to excellence, with a thoughtful, individualized, and never 'one-size-fits-all' approach. Confidence in surgery comes from the surgeon's experience, precision, and a team committed to correct procedures every time, with the surgical experience being team-focused and patient-centered. Every surgical plan is individualized, designed specifically for each patient, considering their unique anatomy, goals, and what makes sense for them. When surgery is part of a treatment plan, the goal is to complement natural features and the patient's desired aging process, restoring balance without changing who the patient is or making them look like a different person. Dr. Mousavi's philosophy on aging emphasizes taking care of factors that influence how one ages, rather than solely chasing every change. He believes aging gracefully doesn't mean doing nothing; it involves understanding skin changes across decades (20s-50s), supporting skin, and evolving treatment plans. He recommends daily SPF, hydration, consistent skin maintenance, and protecting from sun exposure, stressing that at-home care is as crucial as in-office treatments. He advocates for an integrated approach where surgery, aesthetic treatments, and good skincare work together over time for optimal, healthy aging results.
