Dr. Vartan Mardirossian, MD

Dr. Vartan Mardirossian is a double board-certified Facial Plastic Surgeon practicing in McLean, Virginia. He specializes in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Otolaryngology (Head and Neck Surgery), and Facial Feminization Surgery (FFS). FFS and Voice Feminization Surgery (VFS) are also offered in Arlington, VA. Dr. Mardirossian is one of the few in the US to combine cheekbone reduction and forehead contouring specifically for facial feminization, procedures that refine and feminize the face. He emphasizes a conservative approach to rhinoplasty, aiming for a feminine forehead shape, and often uses a closed approach without external incisions. For VFS, his priority is achieving a feminine and natural voice, with results improving for up to a year after surgery. Procedures include forehead contouring, browlifts, hairline rounding and advancement, rhinoplasty, mandible contouring, cheek implants, lip lifts, and tracheal shaves. The practice values patient transparency and is grateful to patients who share their results and experiences to help others.
