About

Dr. Daniel E. Rousso is a Double Board-Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon practicing in Birmingham, Alabama. He specializes in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, performing procedures such as the SculptLift™ Deep Plane Facelift, rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery, hair restoration, and injectables including JUVÉDERM®. Dr. Rousso also performs Mohs surgery. His philosophy centers on achieving natural-looking results, believing that the most successful facial plastic surgery should not appear as if surgery has been performed. He emphasizes balance and refinement, aiming to support what makes each patient unique rather than changing their face. Dr. Rousso advises that surgery should be timed when it makes sense, not sooner, and that rhinoplasty can achieve both functional and aesthetic improvements. The practice is committed to continued education, ensuring patients benefit from the latest techniques, including advanced JUVÉDERM® injection methods. They also offer Hydrafacial + dermaplane treatments. The team strives to make the patient experience reassuring, often utilizing IV sedation and encouraging patients to bring all their questions to consultations.

Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Daniel E. Rousso

Sourced directly from Dr. Daniel E. Rousso's social posts and replies.

What is Dr. Rousso's philosophy on facelift suitability and timing?
Dr. Rousso believes that facelift suitability is not always determined by age, but by the difference the surgery can make. Very few people in their 30s are truly ready, though significant weight loss (including from GLP-1 medications) can sometimes change this. The key question is whether surgery will create a big enough gap between the patient's current state and desired outcome. If the benefits are not significant enough, it may not be the right time. The overall goal is not to operate sooner, but to operate when it makes sense for the patient.

What are the benefits of Hydrafacial + Dermaplane treatments at Rousso Adams?
Hydrafacial + Dermaplane treatments, performed by Kelly, are designed to leave skin smooth, refreshed, and camera-ready for significant events. The practice believes glowing skin is an essential part of preparation for individuals stepping into the spotlight.

What are some potential recovery experiences after a facelift?
While patients generally heal nicely, it's possible to experience conditions like chemosis during recovery.
Source →
What is the typical recovery timeline for a Deep Plane Facelift?
One week post-operation for a Deep Plane Facelift is considered only the beginning of the patient's recovery journey, indicating a longer overall healing process.
Source →
Can Dr. Rousso address both functional and cosmetic concerns during rhinoplasty?
Yes, Dr. Rousso believes it is possible to achieve both functional and aesthetic improvements in rhinoplasty. Rhinoplasty is not always purely cosmetic or purely functional; for many patients, the goal is to improve both breathing and the appearance of their nose. Functional rhinoplasty addresses issues affecting breathing and nasal function, while cosmetic rhinoplasty focuses on shape, proportion, and facial balance. When both concerns are present, they can often be addressed together to create a result that looks natural and functions well.

What is Dr. Rousso's approach to anesthesia and patient comfort?
Dr. Rousso's practice aims to make the entire patient experience less intimidating and more reassuring, believing that feeling informed contributes to feeling confident. For many patients, IV sedation (commonly known as 'twilight' anesthesia) is used instead of general anesthesia. Patients are encouraged to bring any questions they have about anesthesia to their consultation.

Why does the neck often show early signs of aging?
The neck is often one of the earliest areas to show signs of aging because it has thinner skin, less natural support, and is constantly exposed to movement and environmental factors.
Source →
What is Dr. Rousso's approach to Upper Blepharoplasty?
Dr. Rousso believes that for tired eyes, the solution is often refinement rather than adding more. Upper blepharoplasty can refresh the eye area by addressing excess upper eyelid skin and heaviness, aiming to preserve a natural, balanced appearance and achieve a more open, refreshed look without changing the patient's unique characteristics.
Source →
What is Dr. Rousso's philosophy on dermal fillers?
Dr. Rousso believes that filler itself is not the problem that makes people look older, but rather the approach to using it. When used strategically, dermal filler can restore balance, enhance facial harmony, and create a refreshed, natural-looking result. The goal is to support what already makes a patient unique, not to change their face. Undesired results, where patients feel filler has aged them, often stem from too much product, wrong placement, or treating one area without considering the entire face. In aesthetics, balance matters, and the best results come from knowing when to add product and when not to.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. 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.

Total received (2024)

$299

Payments

9

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. Daniel E. Rousso received $299 across 9 payments in 2024. That is in the lower half for physicians here — totals this size are typically meals at sponsored talks. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was ABBVIE INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
