Dr. Ahmad Saad, MD, FACS

Cal tenir en compte molts factors a l’hora de determinar el millor enfocament per a cada pacient, des dels antecedents i l’origen ètnic, fins als resultats desitjats que s’expressen en les consultes. Per tant, la cirurgia plàstica no és un estàndard únic per a tots. Onze anys de formació postdoctoral li han donat al Dr. Saad l’experiència necessària per a combinar aquests factors per a aconseguir un enfocament únic de cada cirurgia que proporcioni als seus pacients els resultats més segurs i exitosos.

La majoria dels pacients que se sotmeten a una cirurgia plàstica no volen tenir una aparença estandarditzada, sinó que volen una versió més jove i rejovenida de si mateixos. Això requereix una minuciosa dedicació als detalls i experiència en una gran varietat de tècniques, perquè els procediments puguin ser personalitzats segons l’estructura facial i corporal, dimensions i característiques úniques del pacient. Això és especialment necessari en treballar amb pacients de diferents ètnies, en els quals els resultats han de ser fidels als antecedents i característiques naturals del pacient.
