Today, medicine is not only a science, but an art.
In his Beverly Hills, California, office, board-certified cosmetic surgeon Dr. Raja Srour sees what he does as an art, requiring a keen sense of aesthetics, an eye for beauty, and a sound understanding of human anatomy.
These, along with good judgment, dexterity, and creativity, are what elevates a good plastic surgeon from the ranks of a good technician to the status of an artist, practicing the art of cosmetic surgery.
Dr. Srour's natural instinct for aesthetics was a major factor in his decision to pursue specialized training in plastic surgery at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in New York City.
With his own private practice in Los Angeles, Dr. Srour has applied to his work his intense desire for harmony and perfection in the human body.
His commitment to such aesthetic standards are apparent, not only in his work as a surgeon, but also in his own canvas paintings which adorn the walls of his office.
As an accomplished painter, Dr. Srour found that the transition from working with a canvas to working with the human body a natural one.
Since then, he has successfully performed the latest techniques in facial and body sculpting, including facelift and eyelid surgery, nose and ear surgery, breast augmentation, lifting and reduction, liposuction, tummy tucks, Brazilian butt lift, body tightening after weight loss and other demanded procedures.
The practice also specializes in Botox, Restylane, and Juvederm injections.
