Reviews for Newport Beach, CA Medical Director Dr. Shabnam Ghazizadeh
"Dr. Ghazizadeh is an absolutely incredible surgeon! I went for a consultation with her for septorhinoplasty surgery. My entire life I could only breathe out of one nostril. I was told by many surgeons that I would never be able to have it corrected. She not only gave me the gift of breathing (haha), she corrected problems with my nose that I did not even know I had. I could not be more happy with the results of my new nose!! Dr. G listened to every concern I had and walked me through the process every step of the way! She has such a fun, kind spirit that it made my decision in choosing her as my surgeon so much easier!"
"I am a sixty year old man that had breathing issues since I was in my teens. I never thought I would have rhinoplasty to correct it. Now I wonder why I waited so long. Since my first meeting with Dr. Ghazizadeh I knew I was in great hands. She took the time to explain what was going on and what I needed to have done to correct it. This was going to be my second surgery ever so I was a little nervous but she helped allay all of my fears. My surgery had some complications and took almost twice as long as was anticipated but Dr. G handled it great. I am so very happy to have her as my surgeon. After my surgery she took the time to explain to me what was done during the surgery and what to expect during my recovery. I honestly could not be more pleased to have had Dr. Ghazizadeh as my surgeon and I would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone that is going to have a procedure."
"Dr. Ghazizadeh, thank you very much for your surgical skills and artistic eye for providing me with such amazing and exceptional results on my blepharoplasty and fat grafting. As a physician, I very much appreciated your professionalism, experience, realistic suggestions and recommendations to reach my goals. You provided a very realistic and wise approach and the results exceeded my highest expectations. Thank you"
"I had a great experience with Dr Ghazizadeh I had a septorhinoplasty done, before going with her I was having issues breathing from both sides of my nose as well as a bump towards the top of my nose caused from previous trauma. I’m a little over one month post op writing this & I’m extremely thankful to her to be able to say that the appearance of my nose is not only better than before but my breathing is so much better as well. The bump is gone, breathing is night & day difference . Surgery on your face is a very difficult decision no matter if you’re a man or woman. However if you’re having issues breathing or want to fix the appearance of your nose, this is the kind of Doctor/surgeon you go to see, I’m grateful she was here in California but no matter what part of the country you live in if you want it done right this is who you fly out to take care of you. My quality of life is now better because of her."
"I was looking for a female surgeon in particular and found Dr. Ghazizadeh. SO HAPPY I DID!! Dr. Ghazizadeh is fantastic. She is kind, patient and talented. Her skills are cutting edge and exemplary. She took the time to explain and educate me on the procedure I was interested in having and addressed all my concerns. She made me feel comfortable and important giving me the confidence that she had the training and knowledge I was looking for in a surgeon. My results are natural and are way beyond my expectations, I am thrilled!! The entire staff was/is friendly, ready to help with anything I needed. You will not be disappointed with your choice to use Dr. Ghazizadeh."
"Best experience ever with Dr Ghazizadeh. Exceded all my expectations on my nose surgery. Went from a crooked nose and having one nostril being almost unusable to a full working nose I can breath better and most importantly I have a straight nose and my confidence in my self has grown tremendously"
"This is long but needed explanation. At a young age I damaged my nose. Never thought anything of it since I was so young and the doctors didn’t make it a concern so neither did I. Visually all you saw was a ‘bump’ in the middle of my nose. Fast forward 20 years. I noticed a lot of problems within my ears, nose and throat as a young adult so I started seeing doctors. Every doctor I saw, made me feel like I was an inconvenience and that “you can try to get it fixed but no promises”. So for a short time I gave up. Until I saw Dr. G for my tonsils and she instantly brought up my nose. She explained what was wrong with my nose, what would happen if I didn’t fix it, and how we could move forward. That day we decided I was getting my nose fixed. I waited 75% of my life for this and It was finally happening. In my own words the problem with my nose was the tip of my nose had no cartilage. As a result, it was starting to ‘droop’ and that’s what cause the ‘bump like’ in the middle of my nose. During the procedure, she took cartilage from my own rib and placed it in my nose to recreate a tip that I didn’t have. It was a 6 hour surgery and she checked all the boxes to make sure I was safe and healthy. I genuinely feel like it was a miracle that Dr. G ended up being my surgeon and I am forever grateful for the results. I stopped taking pain meds after 3 days and I was never in pain. After my 7 day check up, I had all stitches and cast removed and I am shocked at the result. I am an entirely different looking person and it’s so emotional. Also, my breathing through my nose is significantly different and improved. Thank you."
"Dr. Ghazizadeh is an exceptional surgeon with truly remarkable bedside manners. My teenage daughter recently underwent rhinoplasty, and as a parent, I was naturally anxious about the process. However, Dr. Ghazizadeh put both of us at ease with her thorough explanations, patience, and genuine compassion. The recovery process has been seamless thanks to her attentive follow-up care. It's rare to find a doctor who combines such outstanding expertise with warmth and empathy. I cannot recommend Dr. Ghazizadeh highly enough! Thank you for taking such excellent care of my daughter!"
"Dr. G is a wonderfully gifted human! She performed a gorgeous lip lift for me. I was definitely nervous and uncertain, having never done facial surgery. She explained the process thoroughly, and my outcome has been amazing! My thinning, downturned mouth (I’m 55) had really been bothering me for a while, and now I have a natural-looking, much more youthful look. I couldn’t be more thrilled! Highly recommend her and her work! Thank you, Dr. Ghazizadeh!"
"I had been looking to fix my deviated septum for 7 years. I had gone to past consultations feeling like I was meant to sit on the assembly line to receive a standard issue button nose. Through this process, I felt ignored and honestly disturbed that this approach was so prominently successful. Don't people care about their face looking different from everyone else? I took a long break from getting quotes. Feeling defeated, letting the risk of looking like a clone surpass the value of BEING ABLE TO BREATHE. I had bags under my eyes, I was struggling in gym classes, I had trouble sleeping, trouble walking I was never feeling 100%. Finally, I decided to look again. I found Dr. Ghazizadeh on Instagram. She stood out as someone who was giving people nice noses that seemed to match their face and ethnic origin a lot better than her peers. Dr. Ghazizadeh listened. She gave me time to think about what was best for me. She understood the value and weight of the decision for me as an individual. She rallied with me when I changed directions. She was patient. She checked in days before to make sure we were on the same page. She was thoughtful, gentle and kind. Post-op, she is amazing too. I feel lucky to have found her. Plus, being able to breathe 100% of the time is crazy. Is this what I've been missing?? Also, bonus: the bags under my eyes went away almost completely. I love my new nose. I love seeing how it gets better every day. Again, it's really cool to inhale. I realized afterwards, that perhaps it takes a woman to appreciate a woman's cosmetic/medical needs. Not only that, Dr. Ghazizadeh is a true star and advocate for her patients. I would absolutely recommend her for any of your surgical or dermatological needs. Thank you Dr. Ghazizadeh! Special shout-out to Carey as well. She is the front office coordinator. She is a star! She is a clear and effective communicator, kind, encouraging, and patient. A great compliment to the outstanding work of Dr. Ghazizadeh and her team. Thank you!"
"Back in July of 2024, I got an upper eye blepharoplasty done by Dr. Ghazizadeh. I am so happy with the results! This procedure has positively impacted my self-esteem. I initially noticed the heaviness in my eyelids about 5 years ago. It became a concern when my eyes would close on me while driving. I started to become self-conscious when I noticed that I would take photos with my eyes closed or noticed that I had a hard time keeping my eyes open after a long day. My eyes were giving me an overall look of exhaustion regardless of how much sleep I've gotten the night before. Today, I'm 3 months out and feel like my eyes give off a refreshed and wide awake look. Dr. Ghazizadeh is amazing along with everyone else at Faceology. Thank you for this amazing experience!"
"I was struggling with being able to breathe through my nose for quite some time and I decided to go see Dr Ghazizadeh. After meeting with her we decided to go with septorhinoplasty to fix my issues. It's been a couple months and I am finally able to breathe normally and I'm am super happy to have seen her"
"I had my earlobe repair procedure with Dr. Ghazizadeh a few weeks ago and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Quick, painless and reasonably priced. I had 9/16 gauges for about 20 years, and now you would never know."
"So happy I found Dr. G!!! She's so personable, understanding, and listens to your needs! She did an amazing job and thoroughly exceeded my expectations. I'm super happy with my results. Thank you, Dr. G!!"
"I highly recommend Dr. Ghazizadeh. She preformed a septorhinoplasty on me in June 2024 to improve my breathing and correct my very deviated septum. I am completely happy with the outcome of my surgery. I can breath 100x better and after my complex surgery my nose looks great. She cares and listens to your concerns and truly takes pride in her work. Here are my pics. The left pic is before surgery. I had a big deviation to the right which was restricting my breathing. The middle pic is one month after surgery with still a little swelling and the pic on the right is 3 mo post surgery the tip of nose still has some swelling so I'm still taping at night but overall I'm very pleased with my overall outcome. Thanks Dr. Ghazizadah Great Job!"
"6 months post op from face & necklift - zero complications & easy recovery - I am 6 months post op from a face and neck lift. One of the best decisions of my life.

"Dr. Ghazizadeh is Amazing! - I had the best experience with Dr G! I’ve never had filler in my cheeks before, and she made the process so easy. She is so knowledgeable, and answered all of my questions. Another thing that I found so different from other providers, is she did not rush me out of the door! She and her staff made the whole experience perfect! I will not go to anyone else! 10/10 !"

"Dr. G is very nice. I’m very satisfied with her recommendations during my consultation with her. She provided appropriate treatment plans based on your needs."
"My results are natural and compliment my features - I recently had botox and filler done with Dr. G and love my results. She took the time to sit down with me, listen to my concerns and goals, and make suggestions on what would be the best treatment. My results are natural and compliment my features, and I can’t say enough great things about my experience. I will definitely be back!"
"I had an amazing experience at Faceology and with Dr. Ghazizadeh. I had lower face and neck lift. Love my results. The healing was quick and easy. Takes less time to get ready (less makeup) and I look at my image on Zoom calls and no longer cringe. Thank you Dr. Ghazizadeh! Best decision I’ve made in a long time!"
"Dr. Ghazizadeh has performed two neck surgeries on me and I have been extremely pleased with the outcome. She is very personable and good at what she does. The size of my incision was very large and the scar is almost non-existent!!! Great surgeon!!!"
"Dr Ghazizedeh was amazing she had great bedside manners. She could see that she cares for her patience. I would definitely if you need any surgery. I would totally recommend you request her. She’s professional and she cares about your health she makes you feel like you’re not just a number and another surgery, I had a wonderful experience and thank you so much for making this painful experience an extraordinary experience !!!!!"
"Dr. Ghazizadeh is amazing!! So smart and caring, my family highly recommends her. Plus her staff is great too. 5 stars all day."
"Dr. Ghazizadeh performed Septorhinoplasty on my nose to fix a lifelong deviated septum. I went from 100% blockage to completely clear and I couldn't be happier. A big thank you to the doctor and the amazing nursing staff at the Head, Nose, & Throat division of Kaiser Ontario; you're all amazing!"
"Dr Ghazizadeh is the best! She gave recommendations for treatments and procedures in my best interest and makes sure not to overprescribe every time. I’ve recommended her to all my friends!!"
"Dr. G from the beginning gave me her honest opinion from a medical standpoint and a Personal perspective. She helped me make a decision that was not an easy one but medically necessary. Thanks to her I can finally breathe through my nose and I absolutely love how my nose looks and feels! Not only is she a great Doctor but she’s such an amazing person! Thank You Dr G!! My mom and I will definitely be back!"
"The Dr. Did a great job attention to detail was on point she is better then great."
"Dr. G is a Highly experienced Doctor who is conservative in her treatments and does not oversell or do too much at a time, she spends her time with you and checks her work. She’s pleasant and intelligent, great bed side manner. Her staff is nice and friendly, very pleasant office to visit for upkeep and enhancements. 5 stars👏🏻"
"Dr G is the best surgeon, hands down! She gave me my confidence back. She’s very kind, personable and professional at the same time. Her work is more conservative so she can achieve natural results. I can’t recommend her enough!"
"Dr. Ghazizadeh has done my IPL, PRP, and Botox treatments, and I am thrilled with all of the results. I used to get my masseter botox for my clenching and grinding elsewhere and would often bruise or have a lot of soreness, but Dr. G does it perfectly! She also recommended a lip flip for me due to my hyperactive upper lip that created a gummy smile, and I wish I knew to do it sooner! Very pleased with the results and I will continue to drive from Glendale to see her!"
"I highly recommend Doctor Ghazizadeh to anyone who’s needing help to correct their nose issues as she helped me with mine and the results were amazing. I had a septoplasty and rhinoplasty to correct my issues and the results were better than I could have ever expected. For the first time in my life I can actually breathe the way I was always supposed to. Thank you Doctor Ghazizadeh!!!"
"I am delighted to be able to recommend Dr Ghazizadeh. I didn't even know that the lip lift procedure existed, but after meeting with her and listening to her careful explanation, it became obvious I would have been remiss to not have it done. With a 30-year background in research in the medical field, I am confident when I decide on a physician in any specialty. I find her to be the perfect combination of an artist, a surgeon, a caring physician, and a wonderful resource. I went into my procedure knowing I had made an excellent decision and as time goes on I grow even more satisfied and pleased with my results. In my opinion, she stands above the rest in the Newport Beach area and I look forward to her caring for my friends in the future knowing they will be as happy with their results as I am with mine"
"Dr. Ghazizadeh has a gentle hand, gives natural results and has definitely earned my trust. The other staff there is amazing, as well- especially Jordyn, Jessica and Cathy. I highly recommend and will be back!"

"Dr. Ghazizadeh is a wonderful and caring doctor. She really listens to you and what your needs are and gives you the best treatment for your situation."
"My 20-year-old daughter had broken her nose several times while in high school and college sports, and we finally decided to have it repaired. She did not want to look different, but wanted the curvature and hump that had formed corrected. Dr. G was careful to maintain her facial features and correct aesthetic balance during her rhinoplasty. She consulted with us in depth to ensure she would give us the physical results we desired. This was a complicated surgery and Dr. G took her time to give us the highest quality results. We are 5-months post-surgery and are amazed at the results! My daughter can breath normally again and is no longer embarrassed by the appearance of her nose. Dr. G has an amazing bedside manner, she is so talented and knowledgeable in her field. We can’t praise her enough for all she did for us! I highly recommend Dr. Ghazizadeh for rhinoplasty services!"
"We had a great experience with Dr. Ghazizadeh in Newport Beach. She is very attentive, asks and answers a lot of questions and has a warm bedside manner. We did not feel the least bit rushed. She took the time to offer various options with detailed explanations. The procedure was painless and she displayed a keen knowledge of her profession. I would highly recommend her and will continue to use her in the future."
"Great - I will definitely be coming back for any future procedures - Dr. Ghazizadeh is the best. She is extremely knowledgeable and skilled while having amazing bedside manner. I will definitely be coming back for any future procedures and recommend her to anyone trying to figure out which doctor they can trust."
"I can’t say enough about Dr. Ghazizadeh. She is honest with her recommendations & feedback. She never tries to upsell, she recommends treatment that she believes is best for you. I truly believe she has the knowledge & talent to help any of her patients & their needs. I feel very comfortable under her care & will absolutely recommend her to my family & friends!"
"Dr G is amazing she is so kind and has such a big heart. She really took her time with me and really wanted to help me especially after she found out how the incident to my nose happened. Thank dr G for taking care of me and not just making me feel like another patient but someone you really wanted to help, you are the best!!! You did such a great job and my nose was in really bad shape. Thank you!!!"
"Dr. Ghazizadeh is the absolute best on this earth. She made me feel so secure throughout my entire process fixing my nose. After taking everything off my nose it looks absolutely amazing. I could not be happier with my results and I know 110% if I ever need anything done in the future I WILL be going to her."
"Dr. Ghazizadeh is amazing. Being a physician myself, I’m hypercritical of the care I get, and I would not let anyone else touch my face. Dr. Ghazizadeh’s technical skill and bedside manner are truly second to none. Looking forward to my next appointment!"
"Dr. Ghazizadeh is a highly skilled surgeon. She is thoughtful, caring, and professional. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a facial plastic surgeon and rhinoplasty specialist."
"So Happy! Dr. Ghazizadeh did ProfoundRF & Co2 laser on my face and neck a couple months ago. I was feeling self conscious about my neck, jawline & skin. We talked about surgical versus non-surgical options. Ultimately, I wasn’t quite ready to have a facelift yet & she said I was a little on the young side and could wait for more aging. We decided doing the ProfoundRF combined with the Co2 laser was the next best thing. I’m just about 3 months out and I’ve gotten so many compliments on my skin and people keep asking if I’ve lost weight! I’m so happy I chose Dr. Ghazizadeh. I definitely recommend her for your surgical and non-surgical needs when it comes to your face!! The office is so cute too! Looks like they’re doing some renovations and updating. Can’t wait to see what everything looks like next year."
"Dr. Ghazizadeh is amazing she performed on me earlobe hole repair for both ears and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The surgery was fast and painless. Now it’s just recovery time, definitely recommend."

"I LOVE my Lip Filler Result! My lips looked gorgeous and youthful with a subtle enhancement and remained natural-looking - I came to FaceologyMD to get lip filler for the first time! Despite my nervousness, Dr. Ghazizadeh was so gentle, patient, and professional. She made sure that I was comfortable throughout the entire process. I absolutely LOVE my result! My lips looked gorgeous and youthful with a subtle enhancement and remained natural-looking. I definitely recommend her! Thank you Dr. Ghazizadeh!"
"Been 3 months and I can already feel my muscle becoming more relaxed - I came to see Dr. Ghazizadeh for botox in my masseter muscle and could not be happier with my results. As a person who grinds her teeth at night, I was hoping to release tension in my jaw and prevent any future pain. It has been 3 months since my appointment and I can already feel my muscle becoming more relaxed. This was my first time getting Botox ever and I definitely have no regrets. Dr. Ghazizadeh and her staff made the experience very comfortable and painless. I can’t wait to come back!"
"I truly could not recommend Dr. Ghazizadeh enough! She is extremely kind, knowledgeable, and has a true passion for what she is doing. About a month ago I had lip filler for the very first time by her. I was very nervous and did not know what to expect. She made the experience very enjoyable and my result was phenomenal (I didn't even have to come in for a touch up!). I wouldn't trust anybody else with my face now."
"I had Dr. G perform my first lip enhancement. I wanted a subtle plump to my upper and lower lips. She guided me through what she felt would be the best approach and create the most appropriate, desired appearance. This photo was taken 10 minutes after injections. Within the week, the filler had settled and I was even more pleased with the outcome. Aside from her professionalism, she is a pleasure to talk with. I can’t recommend her enough."

"Dr. Ghazizadeh is amazing! I went to her looking for a natural looking lip enhancement and that’s exactly what I got! She was so professional and comforting throughout the entire process! Truly an artist!"
"Dr. Ghazizadeh really listened to my concerns about my problem areas, under chin and crows feet, and took time to explain to me different treatments. She is very knowledgeable and went over the pros and cons of them, and we both decided the best option for myself. It took away any anxiety I had about trying a new treatment for the first time, she really made me feel at ease. I am so incredibly happy with my results, my only regret is not doing this sooner! I will definitely be seeing her again whenever I need some “beautifying.” Highly recommend Dr. Ghazizadeh."
"Dr g is fantastic! She has done botox for me twice and both times turned out beautifully. Not only that but she’s a warm and pleasant provider. Thanks!"
"I did the Clear & Brilliant, and I cannot believe how smooth my skin is. No facial, face mask, anti-aging product, anything, has ever made my skin feel the way it does right now. It's been two weeks since it was done (and the roughness cleared after one week). Dr. Ghazizadeh was amazing. She provided a lot of detail (was patient with all my questions), and was really thorough during the procedure, making sure she didn't miss a spot. I will be back!"
"I highly recommend Dr. G!!! She did my IPL and Botox treatment and I could not be happier with the results. She is very meticulous and spends her time to make sure the results look perfect. She has a really good vision for what treatments and products would work well for the individual. Highly recommend."
"I assisted Dr. G during her fellowship and commemorate her close attention to detail and satisfaction of the patients’ desires. Great work ethic and quality outcomes!"
