Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Hooman Khorasani
Sourced directly from Dr. Hooman Khorasani's social posts and replies.
What is Dr. Khorasani's approach to managing skin laxity during liposuction?
Dr. Khorasani considers skin laxity management an integral part of modern body contouring. For patients where fat removal may lead to loose skin, he often recommends adding subdermal skin tightening treatments like BodyTite®, J-Plasma, or Morpheus8 Body to liposuction to ensure the skin tightens beautifully and achieves optimal cosmetic results.
What is Dr. Khorasani's approach to hand rejuvenation?
Dr. Khorasani performs non-surgical hand rejuvenation using specialized hyaluronic acid fillers like Juvéderm Voluma® and Restylane Lyft®. This single in-office visit procedure restores lost volume, smoothness, and youthful contour, making hands look decades younger immediately. These fillers provide substantial volume that withstands daily wear and tear and stimulate collagen production, with effects lasting up to two years. There is no downtime.
What is Dr. Khorasani's approach to jaw slimming?
Dr. Khorasani performs non-surgical jaw slimming using Botox or Dysport in the masseter muscles and parotid gland. This quick, incision-free procedure creates a softer jawline, a slimmer lower face, and an oval or heart-shaped profile, enhancing overall facial symmetry. Results are gradual, natural, and lasting, often requiring maintenance only every few years, unlike typical forehead Botox treatments.
What is CO2 laser birthmark removal and what is the recovery like?
Dr. Khorasani performs CO2 laser birthmark removal using targeted laser energy to remove pigmented tissue layer by layer with minimal impact on surrounding skin. Healing typically involves redness and light peeling for 1–2 weeks, with full results visible as skin regenerates over the following weeks. Results and healing time can vary by individual.
What is the timeline for results from subdermal skin tightening treatments?
Subdermal skin tightening treatments stimulate fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin, with results continuing to improve long after the session. Patients typically notice significant change around three months, with firmer skin at 3 months and even tighter skin at 6 months. Optimal results are expected after six months, and the full effect can take up to a year to fully set in, requiring patience throughout the process.
What are the benefits and typical results of Morpheus8 treatments?
Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive procedure that tightens, firms, and smooths skin without surgical downtime. It stimulates new collagen and elastin production, leading to visible improvement after the first session, with full results developing over three to six months. For loose abdominal skin, a series of Morpheus8 Body treatments spaced four to six weeks apart is recommended for comprehensive, lasting results.
How does Dr. Khorasani address loose skin and fat pockets after significant weight loss?
Rapid weight loss can leave behind loose skin, residual fat pockets, and contour irregularities in areas like the abdomen, arms, thighs, flanks, and buttocks, which medication alone cannot fix. Dr. Khorasani offers a combined approach of precision liposuction to remove stubborn fat and BodyTite® radiofrequency skin tightening to tighten loose skin. This combination delivers a sculpted, tightened result with minimal scarring and downtime, without requiring surgical skin removal. Ideal candidates have been stable at their goal weight for 3 or more months.

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)
$21
Payments
1
Compared to peers
Small
Dr. Hooman Khorasani received $21 across 1 payment 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 Galderma Laboratories, L.P..
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?”
